International audience ; L''usage scientifique de la notion d'" identité européenne " a rapidement progressé depuis le milieu des années 1990. On le mesure facilement dans le cas de la littérature de langue anglaise (cf. schéma ci-dessous). Pourtant l'expression n'est pas sans poser problème. Une grande partie de la littérature sur le sujet s'attache à discuter, en termes plus ou moins historiques et/ou philosophiques, ce que sont ou seraient les valeurs et modes de vie communes à " l'Europe " - entendue tantôt comme un continent regroupant un ensemble de pays, tantôt comme une civilisation - qui la distinguent du reste du monde et légitiment en quelque sorte le processus d'intégration économique et politique. Une autre partie de la littérature, celle qui nous intéresse ici, appréhende l'identité européenne comme un processus psycho-sociologique ou socio-politique d'attachement des citoyens à l'espace européen ou à la communauté politique dessinée par l'intégration. Ce volume de Politique européenne, comme son titre l'indique, met en question la validité, conceptuelle et empirique, de cette conception de l'identité européenne en sciences sociales.

In Punishment and Citizenship, Milena Tripkovic develops a normative theory of restrictions to electoral rights of criminal offenders. Arguing that disenfranchisement is not punishment but a citizenship sanction, she examines what duties criminals owe to their polities.

AbstractContrary to the claims of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) that its torture program was scientific, the program was not based on biology or any other science. Instead, the George W. Bush administration veneered the program's justification with a patina of pseudoscience, ignoring the actual biology of torturing human brains. We reconstruct the Bush administration's decision-making process to establish that the policy decision to use torture took place in the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 attacks without any investigation into its efficacy. We then present the pseudoscientific model of torture sold to the CIA, show why this ad hoc model amounted to pseudoscience, and then catalog what the actual science of torturing human brains—available in 2001—reveals about the practice. We conclude with a discussion of how a process incorporating countervailing evidence might prevent a policy going forward that is contrary to law, ethics, and evidence.

Durant son voyage d'études aux États-Unis, en vue d'écrire un livre commandé par les éditions Firmin-Didot, Paul de Rousiers, accompagné du photographe Georges Rivière, fait une brève incursion au Canada à la fin du mois de mai 1890, pour rencontrer son collègue canadien de la Science sociale Léon Gérin. Celui-ci leur fait visiter la paroisse de Saint-Justin où il s'exerce à ses premières observations de terrain, qui lui serviront ensuite à écrire L'Habitant de Saint-Justin , classique de la sociologie québécoise. Nous présentons ici quelques extraits de la correspondance échangée entre les deux hommes et en particulier les lettres écrites par P. de Rousiers à propos de ce qu'il appelle "ce curieux paysˮ.

In the past thirty years, academic work in the field of business has evolved from an applied field to a theoretically grounded, rigorous, scientific field of inquiry garnering the attention of high-quality academics from the fields of psychology, sociology, economics, and political science and many others. In this time the social science of administration has developed into a multi-faceted field with theoretical and empirical lenses too numerous to mention. With this development has come the need for innovations in scholarly publication in this area, one of these being the introduction of our new journal, Administrative Sciences. [...]
