Sommario/riassunto

Le Bon Passage, parcours inéluctable de la vie à la mort, parcours mystérieux qui irait, paradoxalement, de la mort à la vie : pour ce terme irréversible de l’existence, toute société élabore les rituels d’un rapport symbolique que doivent entretenir les vivants avec les morts. Du défunt au vivant qui le pleure, entre ceux qui restent et ceux qui disparaissent s’instaurent des liens. Par le surgissement d’un au-delà, par un contact que le désir anime sans cesse, par le dialogue inquiet mené avec ceux qui sont désormais muets, ayant franchi l’énigmatique étape, les rituels sociaux, les espaces dévolus au funéraire, les célébrations, les rituels d’art et d’écriture aménagent une relation essentielle avec les morts. Afin de leur assurer un Bon Passage dans un autre monde lointain, mais aussi de garantir la fermeté d’une transmission, essentielle à la vie. Ainsi les morts forment-ils un capital symbolique, assurant à ceux qui jouissent de la vie un pacte de paix et la certitude de richesses toujours maintenues.  Par les rituels collectifs ou intimes, toute relation avec le mort est sous-tendue par l’espoir que le passage sera heureux et bon, de part et d’autre des espaces respectifs. Car la mort n’est jamais une rupture : le choix d’un objet dont il semble encore si difficile de parler inscrit ce volume dans la tradition propre au LAPRIL. Point d’exclusion pour le disparu, mais une vie nouvelle et une intégration puissante : de la société visible des vivants à la société invisible des ancêtres, le dernier mot restera à la vie. Au terme d’un long travail symbolique, le flux de la vie, qui semblait aller vers la rupture, atteint en vérité une clôture vivante, et « la société, rentrée dans sa paix, peut triompher de la mort » (Robert Herz).

Sommario/riassunto

The new millennium began with the triumph of democracy and markets. But for whom is life just, how so, and why? And what is being done to correct persisting injustices? Blending macro-level global and national analysis with in-depth grassroots detail, the contributors highlight roots of injustices, how they are perceived, and efforts to alleviate them. Following up on issues raised in the groundbreaking best-seller Power and Popular Protest: Latin American Social Movements (California, 2001), these essays elucidate how conceptions of justice are socially constructed and contested and historically contingent, shaped by people's values and institutionally grounded in real-life experiences. The contributors, a stellar coterie of North and Latin American scholars, offer refreshing new insights that deepen our understanding of social justice as ideology and practice.

Sommario/riassunto

Nanomedicine represents one of the most investigated areas in the last two decades in the field of pharmaceutics. Several nanovectors have been developed and a growing number of products have been approved. It is well known that many biomaterials are able to self-organize under controlled conditions giving rise nanostructures. Polymers, lipids, inorganic materials, peptides and proteins, and surfactants are examples of such biomaterials and the self-assembling property can be exploited to design nanovectors that are useful for



drug delivery. The self-organization of nanostructures is an attractive approach to preparing nanovectors, avoiding complex and high-energy-consuming preparation methods, and, in some cases, facilitating drug loading procedures. Moreover, preparations based on these biocompatible and pharmaceutical grade biomaterials allow an easy transfer from the lab to the industrial scale. This book reports ten different works, and a review, aiming to cover multiple strategies and pharmaceutical applications in the field of self-organizing nanovectors for drug delivery.
