In social sciences, a law can be defined as a finding of certain regularities in the interrelationships between social facts. These regularities observed, and then validated by the experiment cited, make it possible to propose laws, even if they are not necessarily universal and permanent in nature, as in some cases in physical science. In line with this approach and applying the principles of Claude Bernard's experimental method, we propose two of the demography laws of politics, the number law and the differential law. By means of the experiment referred to, their veracity can be established. The geography of the population can therefore provide useful lessons for political science. ; International audience In social sciences, laws result from interrelationships between social facts that can be frequently observed. These laws are not universal as they can be in physical sciences. However, once observed and experimented, regular events can lead to the recognition of laws. This is what we propose to do, following the principles of Claude Bernard's experimental method, in order to deal with two demogeographic laws of politics : the law of number and the law of differential. Hence we will see how useful for political science population geography can be. ; In social sciences, a law can be defined as a finding of certain regularities in the interrelationships between social facts.

International audience ; L'analyse des conditions d'émergence de la gouvernance, et notamment de la gouvernance urbaine, passe par un repérage des migrations du terme à travers les champs disciplinaires (philosophie, économie, sociologie, science politique, sciences de gestion etc.) et institutionnels (entreprises, organisations internationales, gouvernements nationaux, pouvoirs locaux) qui l'ont utilisé. Les procédures de gouvernance répondent, avec plus ou moins de pertinence, à de multiples enjeux de l'action publique en contexte urbain, qu'ils se posent en termes de légitimité, d'efficacité ou de durabilité. La référence à la gouvernance révèle certains non-dits des mutations urbaines et traduit de profonds remaniements des représentations idéologiques et des conventions territoriales (au sens de l'économie des conventions). C'est précisément parce qu'il possède un fort potentiel idéologique que le concept a eu la fortune scientifique et pratique qu'on lui connaît.

Representing democracy and the development of the political persona in the XIXth century Romanian political discourse means, first of all, to focus the analysis on the implications the concept of democracy could provide. In the first half of the XIXth century, the concept of Romanian democracy and its place within political discourse are conditioned by philosophical and historiographical discontinuities between the periods, the intellectual sources, as well as the political and institutional framework of that time. Within that context, democracy should be regarded as a fundamental concept to political and institutional development in the beginning of the XIXth century. The present article goes on this path, analyzing some examples of political discourse during the period of establishment of the fundamental democratic institutions in the Romanian modernity.

Published: 28 April 2018 ; In an interdependent world, this sensation that not everyone who should be here is here, that our constituencies should be completed with other criteria of inclusion, that there may be some who have been illegitimately excluded from our group points to a triple inclusion―spatial, temporal and natural―that we should undertake: the inclusion of our neighbors, of our descendants and of the environment. None of these three "votes" enough. One of the principal challenges of contemporary democracies is how to reintroduce these subjects in our systems of representation and decision-making. If this hypothesis is correct, then we have a true democratic deficit and the habitual question about whether democracy is possible beyond the national state should be reformulated to ask instead whether democracy is possible without including those who are outside the national state, or more concretely, whether we can continue calling a political system a democracy if it does not internalize the interests of its contemporaries, does not anticipate the rights of future generations or does not recognize in some way the political subjectivity of nature.

The scholarship on interwar Romania has routinely explored the relationship between monarchism and nationalism, especially under King Carol II (1930-1940). The royalist ideology developed during his reign was grounded on the idea of a leader destined to lead an endeavour of national regeneration. The official propaganda and the King's supporters have always presented the monarch's political, cultural or social initiatives as being oriented towards achieving this goal. In order to explore the way in which the rise of monarchical authoritarianism is legitimized by modernist ideas and practices, this article applies a conceptual framework used by the British scholar Roger Griffin in an attempt to understand the nature of the symbiosis between monarchism and projects of national renewal in 1930's Romania.

From the publication of the French translation of a book by Peter Winch, the article reverted to the tendency of political science and, more broadly, of social sciences to adopt the naturalist view that the phenomena they deal with existed independently from the point of view of the members of society involved in their production. In this sense, the opposing positions of Bruno Latour and Pierre Favre, published in RFSP issues 58 (4) and (5), are similar: they argue that it is possible to determine what is and is not political externally to specific practices. ; International audience Based on the French translation of a book by Peter Winch, this article reassesses the tendency in political science – and, more broadly, in the social sciences – to adopt the naturalistic view that the phenomena those sciences explore exist independently of the viewpoints of members of society involved in their production. In this sense, the contrasting positions taken by Bruno Latour and Pierre Favre, published in issues 58 (4) and (5) of the RFSP, turn out to be similar : both posit that what is and is not political can be determined without reference to specific practices. ; From the publication of the French translation of a book by Peter Winch, the article reverted to the tendency of political science and, more broadly, of social sciences to adopt the naturalist view that the phenomena they deal with existed independently from the point of view of the members of society involved in their production.
