Il faut attendre vingt-deux années pour que la Belgique reconnaisse la République populaire de Chine proclamée par Mao Zedong le 1 er octobre 1949. Le ministère des Affaires étrangères belge est confronté, pendant cette période, à des enjeux multiples d'ordre national, en raison des intérêts belges présents de longue date en Chine, et international, notamment dans le cadre d'organisations internationales telles que l'ONU et l'OTAN. S'ancrant directement dans le contexte géopolitique de la Guerre froide, ce processus complexe de reconnaissance de la Chine communiste par la Belgique est mis en lumière dans cet article. Celui-ci tente de comprendre les réflexions qui ont animé la politique étrangère belge face au régime communiste chinois menant, in fine , à la reconnaissance de ce régime.

The most prominent feature of the female labor force across the past hundred years is its enormous growth. But many believe that the increase was discontinuous. Our purpose is to identify the short- and long-run impacts of WWII on the labor supply of women who were currently married in 1950 and 1960. Using WWII mobilization rates by state, we find a wartime impact on weeks worked and the labor force participation of married white (non-farm) women in both 1950 and 1960. The impact, moreover, was experienced almost entirely by women in the top half of the education distribution.

Based on one of the most influential proposals intended to analyze media systems from a comparative perspective (Hallin and Mancini, 2004) as well as the criticism it has attracted, this work suggests that the manner in which the different elements of media systems have been operationalized has proven insufficient in the task of contextualizing predominant models of journalistic role performance in parts of the world other than the West. By examining the political, economic, social, cultural and technological factors that have defined the development of journalism in Latin American countries, and specifically in Chile, we propose both widening and redefining the aspects that have to be considered in order to analyze media systems in a comparative fashion, including the reality of new democracies.
