The study aimed to assess the organizational commitment and the internalization of the standards contained in the Oath of Government Employees (Panunumpa ng Kawani ng Gobyerno) based on the experience of the employee of the Local Government Unit of Olongapo. It will specifically focus on four key result areas reflected in the pledge of commitment: honesty and integrity, proper use of government property, fight against corruptions, technical and professional competencies. The researcher used a descriptive research method and utilized a cross-sectional design with the questionnaire as the main data gathering tool. The population of the study consisted of the employees in the different service-delivery units of a highly urbanized city in Central Luzon, Philippines. A sample size representing ten percent (10%) of the total population determined the respondents for the study. The sample respondents were selected among the different service-delivery units of the local government unit using a simple random sampling technique. This study intended to prove the significant difference in the organizational commitment of employees in the local government unit in terms of gender, age, and length of service. Furthermore, the research also tried to determine the relationship between the Oath of Government Employees – Based Standards and Employees Organizational Commitment in the local government unit of the involved highly urbanized city. The result of the study will serve as a basis to develop a proposed Service Charter for each of the service-delivery units of the local government of the City.

Faisant des réseaux le support essentiel de nos relations avec le monde extérieur, la crise a permis d'éclairer sur le besoin de connectivité sur l'ensemble du territoire. Elle renforce ainsi l'importance donnée à l'investissement dans les réseaux au cours de ces dernières années. Le plan de relance constituera une étape majeure pour parachever la couverture du pays en très haut débit. La période a aussi vu naître une « peur de la 5G » interpelant les pouvoirs publics sur notre rapport à la technologie ainsi que sur son impact environnemental. Un nouveau chapitre de la régulation semble pouvoir devoir être ouvert : celui d'une régulation environnementale du numérique.

AbstractAt the end of the eighteenth century, members of the colonial elite of the Captaincy General of Venezuela addressed a letter to the king of Spain in which they sought permission to have a printing press in the city of Caracas. In the letter, they argued that the establishment of such a press was fundamental for the economic and commercial development of the Captaincy. Months later, they learned that the permission for a printing press had been denied without further explanations. Venezuela became one of the last capital cities in colonial Spanish America to possess this technology. The lack of a printing press during this politically dynamic period moved by the Atlantic revolutions did not necessarily affect public access to reading, sharing of information, and political debate in Venezuela. Venezuela's unique geographical location, and its open and frequent connections with the Caribbean region during the Age of Revolutions allowed for the effective entrance and transit of people and written materials that spread revolutionary ideas and impressions, creating a dynamic and contested political environment. Here I argue that during the late-colonial period, semiliterate forms of knowledge transmission, partially promoted by Spanish reformism, mobilised a socially diverse public that openly debated the monarchical regime, the system of slavery, and the hierarchical socio-racial order of colonial society. The colonial public sphere in Venezuela was shaped, then, within a context of emerging socio-racial tensions and became a space of contestation and struggle, animated by the overlapping of contradictory political discourses.This study contributes to recent debates about the character, nature, and relevance of the public sphere in the colonial world. It explores the circulation of manuscripts and ephemeral written materials, the different modes of production and reception of texts that developed in the colonial context, and an analysis of the character of the urban spaces that facilitated the performativity of texts. It thus offers a new framework for understanding the emergence of a public sphere in Venezuela, a colonial peripheral province with no printing press.

Les morts survivent à deux conditions : laisser des traces mémorables et être invoqués par un vivant qui leur sert de médium. Affranchi de son corps comme de toute actualité, le défunt accède à l'immortalité, pareil à un dieu. Existence enviable ?

Le médium de l'Europe, c'est le train et le chemin de fer est sa voie.

On reproche à l'Union européenne son incapacité à construire une puissance pour tenir son rang dans le monde et retrouver ainsi un dominium perdu… qui n'a jamais existé ! Et s'il s'agissait au contraire pour l'Europe d'en finir avec la puissance et de convertir le monde à la politique, son invention ? Faites de la politique, pas la guerre !

Le mot « digital » change de sens de part et d'autre d'un écran de smartphone. Côté usager, il désigne les doigts, de l'autre côté, il signifie numérique. Cherchez l'erreur… Il est temps que l'homme cesse de parasiter la technique.

Quatre figures de l'autorité s'incarnent dans nos dirigeants ou nos institutions politiques. Chaque régime, à chaque époque, les met en scène, et chaque révolution redistribue les rôles à sa manière. Qu'en est-t-il aujourd'hui ?
