Il n'est pas facile d'estimer l'effectif des Indiens sans statut et Métis du Québec. Le caractère distinctif de cette sous-population dans l'ensemble des Amérindiens étant de ne pas jouir d'un statut légal, il serait nécessaire, pour la délimiter, de tenir compte à la fois de l'origine indienne, des effets de la loi des Indiens et de l'intensité du sentiment d'appartenance de ses membres a la collectivité indienne. Il n'est donc pas surprenant de constater l'absence de données satisfaisantes en ce qui les concerne dans les statistiques officielles.
L'estimation proposée dans ce travail s'appuie sur l'exploitation de sources indirectes et sur l'utilisation d'un modèle simple, décrivant les effets de mariages mixtes d'Indiennes et de non-Indiens qui sont, pour l'essentiel, à l'origine de la population étudiée. Une autre voie consiste à comparer l'évolution observée de l'effectif des Indiens inscrits à ce qu'il aurait été en l'absence des règles privatives du statut contenues dans la loi des Indiens. On aboutit dans les deux cas, à l'aide d'hypothèse volontairement minimales, à estimer entre 23 000 et 50 000 le nombre d'Indiens sans statut et Métis au Québec en 1976.

Este ensaio discute as diferentes abordagens da promoção da saúde e da participação e suas implicações no sentido de contribuir para a construção de novas práticas e compromissos em torno da produção social da saúde. Defende a ideia de que práticas de promoção da saúde podem ser ativadoras de potência de ação para construir medidas que resultem em fortalecimento dos sujeitos e das coletividades, na ampliação da autonomia e no fomento da participação e das redes. A intenção deste artigo é compartilhar ideias, além de ser um convite a afastarmo-nos das receitas e das reproduções, a fim de inventarmos nossos próprios modos de construir a promoção da saúde.

Data gathered from the previously unexplored files of the historical archives of the former local government of Mexico City revealed that at the turn of the century, mobile movie theaters (jacalones, from jacal, a Mexican rustic cabin) were set up in the small squares of Mexico City. These wood & canvas buildings were similar to circus tents. The local government granted licenses to the jacalone managers under certain requirements & tribute payment; a list of the jacalones & details about their locations & movie managers is included. The jacalones brought cinema to the common people, whereas it had previously been confined to the aristocracy & middle classes. In this sense, the jacalone managers can be considered cinema pioneers. 1 Table, 1 Map, 6 References. Adapted from the source document.

This study analyses the properties of the networks constructed by the funded energy-related research consortia to assess their support to the objectives of the European Union's energy technologies and research policies. By developing research consortia, partners and projects are linked to form a network that generates relationship networks (innovation systems). Although many authors assessed this innovation system from different perspectives, few studies aim to identify the properties of its networks. From the innovation systems perspective, this study fills this gap in the literature by applying Social Network Analysis to determine the network cohesion properties and the centrality measures of its nodes, thereby enlarging the innovation systems literature in the field of modelling and performance assessment. The results indicate that the effectiveness of the innovation systems depends on the geographical distribution of the consortia and the diversity of the participants, revealing significant performance differences in each of the research fields within the energy programme. Based on these conclusions, this paper provides recommendations for policymakers and participants in these European research programmes.
