Regards croisés N°10, 2020

Le dossier du numéro est consacré au statut du visage dans les débats et les pratiques sociales, ainsi que dans la poésie et les arts visuels, du point de vue l'actualité et dans une perspective historique. Les méthodes actuelles d'authentification biométrique et de codification des visages par ordinateur en constituent le point de départ. Les auteurs interrogent leur lien avec le fantasme de la lisibilité et de la maîtrise du visage dans la tradition physiognomonique. Les conséquences de cette théorie de l'expression propre au XVIIIe siècle sont examinées par Martial Guédron, notamment dans la réception française de Johann Caspar Lavater. Roland Meyer discute la dimension technique de la reconnaissance faciale depuis les années 1960 à l'aune des questions soulevées par les sciences de la culture. Claus Gunti étudie l'utilisation de la photographie numérique par les artistes depuis les années 1990 au prisme de l'identité à l'ère d'Internet. Jin Yang explore l'impossibilité du portrait authentique, entre autres dans des textes de Roland Barthes, Marguerite Duras et W.G. Sebald. Le projet croisé du numéro est consacré à l'historien de l'art et de l'architecture Willibald Sauerländer : Thomas Kirchner, Philippe Plagnieux, Anne-Orange Poilpré et Marc C. Schurr échangent sur les travaux de ce chercheur décédé en 2018. Le numéro rassemblent enfin des recensions qui jettent un éclairage sur l'actualité éditoriale francophone et germanophone en histoire de l'art, esthétique et littérature comparée.

The Chinese Triads: The History and Legacy of China’s Most Famous Organized Crime Syndicates , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 82min

From running guns to white-collar crimes in cyberspace and illegal seafood, the Triads, the mafia of China, are potent figures in the world of organized crime. Going by enigmatic names like the 14K Triad and the United Bamboo Gang, these criminal groups are enormous, with some organizations boasting memberships ranging in the tens of thousands. A powerful factor in China and throughout Asia, Triads are entrenched in society and the masters of multiple enterprises ranging from extortion, narcotics, prostitution, and white collar crime. Despite their origins in mainland China, the Triads are most powerful in Hong Kong and Taiwan; as an international organization, the Triads have expanded into North America and other Western countries. The various Triad organizations are different but share many similarities, including a hierarchical structure, exclusive membership, common commercial money-making activities, the use of violence as a tool and the codification of rituals for the group. Although the various Triad groups share a common Chinese ethnic origin, these groups are fiercely territorial and do not collaborate together too often. The modern Triads trace their lineage to a group called the Hung Mun (Heaven and Earth Association). Originating in the Qing Dynasty as a secret society focused on Han solidarity and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, these groups sought to overthrow the foreign Manchu Qing rulers. The Hung Mun positioned themselves as self-help organizations to disfranchised Chinese workers, providing them money loans and welfare when they were ignored by the government. From these secretive anti-Qing groups to their current existence as powerful organized crime groups, the Triads have continued to evolve and grow. Taking full advantage of technological changes, the Triads have become major players in cybercrime and the illegal seafood trade, forcing law enforcement to evolve in order to combat them. The Chinese Triads: ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Clem. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/194161/bk_acx0_194161_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

The Oxford Guide to the Uralic Languages (eBook, PDF)

This volume offers the most comprehensive and wide-ranging treatment available today of the Uralic language family, a group of languages spoken in northern Eurasia. While there is a long history of research into these languages, much of it has been conducted within several disparate national traditions; studies of certain languages and topics are somewhat limited and in many cases outdated. The Oxford Guide to the Uralic Languages brings together leading scholars and junior researchers to offer a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the internal relations and diversity of the Uralic language family, including the outlines of its historical development, and the contacts between Uralic and other languages of Eurasia. The book is divided into three parts. Part I presents the origins and development of the Uralic languages: the initial chapters examine reconstructed Proto-Uralic and its divergence, while later chapters provide surveys of the history and codification of the three Uralic nation-state languages (Hungarian, Finnish, and Estonian) and the Uralic minority languages from Baltic Europe to Siberia. This part also explores questions of endangerment, revitalization, and language policy. The chapters in Part II offer individual structural overviews of the Uralic languages, including a number of understudied minority languages for which no detailed description in English has previously been available. The final part of the book provides cross-Uralic comparative and typological case studies of a range of issues in phonology, morphology, syntax, and the lexicon. The chapters explore a number of topics, such as information structure and clause combining, that have traditionally received very little attention in Uralic studies. The volume will be an essential reference for students and researchers specializing in the Uralic languages and for typologists and comparative linguists more broadly.

Modernizing the Role of the International Court of Justice (eBook, PDF)

This book discusses the future role of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in a world facing survival challenges. It discusses threats such as climate change, environmental degradation and pandemics, and argues that in the future the ICJ will need to carry out judicial, security and protection functions as it is the only organ of the United Nations (UN) that can discharge such functions in view of its independence and expertise. The author proposes that the ICJ can apply a hitherto unused jurisdictional provision in Article 36 of its statute that allows it to deal with "All Matters Specially Provided for in the UN Charter" and presents three examples of issues that would require the urgent attention of the ICJ: vaccine equity in a global pandemic, climate disaster, and mass movements of people across frontiers due to climate change and environmental degradation.
