Le nom du chanoine Charles-Aloyse Fontaine (1754-1834), devenu aujourd'hui presque immémoré, reste indissociablement attaché à l'histoire politique, religieuse et culturelle du canton de Fribourg. Ecclésiastique libéral, partisan et acteur de la révolution helvétique, dévoué administrateur de l'école du Père Girard, pionnier de l'historiographie fribourgeoise et premier contributeur des musées cantonaux, il dynamisa la vie de sa cité durant plus d'un demi-siècle. Sa correspondance, qui s'étend de 1782 à 1834, rend compte de son action réformatrice et de la plupart de ses travaux scientifiques. Classées dans six chapitres thématiques, les 160 lettres éditées dans ce volume relient le Fribourgeois à une quarantaine d'interlocuteurs originaires de Suisse, d'Allemagne, de France et d'Italie. La correspondance met en exergue à la fois les occupations éclectiques d'un savant universel et la vie domestique d'un riche bourgeois en quête de prestige social. Par les sujets abordés, elle offre un matériau exceptionnel pour réinterroger les interrelations entre Église, sciences et révolutions à la fin du siècle des Lumières.

Nigeria and Nigerians have witnessed different kinds of electoral frauds since the return to democracy in 1999. Counting from the 1999 general election in Nigeria, the 2019 general election is the 6th general elections conducted in the country. Unfortunately, none of these elections have been considered to be free and fair as there are always public outcries from one end to another against the results of the elections as a result of lack of transparency in the process. Drawing from this background, this study, examines whether heavy use of WhatsApp platforms by different political parties in the election encouraged popular participation and effective monitoring of the electoral processes. The study which examined a total of 318 respondents sampled from select WhatsApp groups of the two leading political parties adopted the survey research method with the social media engagement and technological acceptance theories as its theoretical framework to ascertain whether the use of WhatsApp platforms by political parties encouraged popular participation among the electorate and determine if WhatsApp platforms were helpful to parties in monitoring the 2019 general election as well as its processes. Findings revealed that WhatsApp use encouraged popular participation and electoral process monitoring. The researchers recommended that the political parties and the electoral umpire should engage more in the use of social media platforms in passing information during, on and after election to encourage transparency in leadership

State defense threats that arise as a result of the development of the global, regional and national strategic environment also include social conflicts that are still widely found in various parts of Indonesia. The preparation of a national defense strategy from an early age is very much needed to face the worst possibility and the government must hold a total war. The involvement of all national resources is needed including human resources, social conflict is a serious problem in the development of the defense force, so a solution must be found. This paper uses a phenomenological qualitative descriptive method and the theory of defense policy implementation by Lukman Yudho Prakoso to analyze the current problems. The research results show that there is still a need to carry out good handling in handling social conflicts that are integrated, can communicate interactively between entities, and implement transparent, controlled and accountable activities. So that the conclusion can be formulated that it is necessary to instill the value of State defense in handling social conflicts, so that it is hoped that awareness will arise in the community for responsibility in defending the State. Another conclusion is that a strategy is needed to build the best network and the involvement of an entity that functions as a Driver Force for handling social conflicts in supporting military campaign strategies.
