Franceschini, Ivan, Ling Li, and Mark Bo. 2025. Scam
In this pathbreaking volume, the authors provide an at once empirically very well-informed, theoretically robust, and chilling account of the emergence and development of the scam industry in Southeast Asia and of its devastating effects on people’s lives.The volume is based on long-term fieldwork in Southeast Asia, mostly in Cambodia, and on in-depth interviews with 96 survivors of scam compounds in Cambodia, Myanmar, and Laos between 2022 and 2…
Régimes de travail en Chine (1949-2024). Continuités, ruptures et nouvelles approches
L’article vise à mieux comprendre l’influence des débats internationaux des années 1930 autour du corporatisme sur la régulation des relations collectives de travail, à travers l’exemple du Luxembourg. À partir des débats entre les courants catholique social et socialiste, l’article montre la diversité des approches du corporatisme et les polémiques qu’il a suscitées dans un contexte de radicalisation politique. Il éclaire ensuite la place des dé…
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use trajectories and incidence of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections among PrEP users in Belgium
The study highlights challenges in PrEP persistence and a high incidence of bacterial STIs among individuals receiving PrEP. Tailored prevention support is crucial for individuals with ongoing HIV risk to optimise PrEP effectiveness. Integrated STI testing and prevention interventions within PrEP care are necessary to mitigate STI acquisition and transmission among PrEP users
Isabelle Thireau, Des lieux en commun. Une ethnographie des rassemblements publics en Chine
Cet ouvrage est le fruit d’une enquête ethnographique de trois ans (2011-2014) réalisée par la sociologue Isabelle Thireau dans la ville de Tianjin. Il est divisé en deux parties consacrées chacune à l’étude d’un rassemblement : celui de la Place de la Victoire (chapitres 1 à 3) et celui qui regroupe les défenseurs du patrimoine architectural de la ville de Tianjin (chapitres 4 à 6). Chaque partie est suivie d’une conclusion, la conclusion généra…
Luttes pour les espaces publics et échelles de visibilité
Dans cet article, nous examinons comment une organisation locale basée à Pékin est parvenue à se développer et à subsister pendant près de vingt ans dans un environnement politique caractérisé par l'incertitude. Nous posons les questions suivantes : comment une telle organisation s'est-elle adaptée aux évolutions de l'environnement politique et de quelle façon ces changements ont-ils transformé l'échelle et la visibilité des actions menées et des…
Drug behaviors, sexually transmitted infection prevention, and sexual consent during chemsex
Chemsex refers to the intentional use of drugs before or during sex in a specific context, typically involving prolonged sex sessions with multiple partners. Engaging in chemsex is associated with a wide range of health risks and related risk behaviors. We developed a mobile phone application (‘Budd-app’) to support and inform chemsex participants, reduce potential negative impacts associated with chemsex (e.g., physical, psychological and social…
Monkeypox Virus Infection in Humans across 16 Countries — April–June 2022
BACKGROUND: Before April 2022, monkeypox virus infection in humans was seldom reported outside African regions where it is endemic. Currently, cases are occurring worldwide. Transmission, risk factors, clinical presentation, and outcomes of infection are poorly defined. METHODS: We formed an international collaborative group of clinicians who contributed to an international case series to describe the presentation, clinical course, and outcomes o…
Self-Control as Conceptual Framework to Understand and Support People Who Use Drugs During Sex
Few theory-informed interventions to support people who use drugs during sex have been conceptualized and developed. We conceptualize sexualized drug use, also referred to as chemsex or pharmacosex, as a self-control challenge, and draw on extant theory and research to propose intervention approaches that can be tailored to meet the differing needs of people who engage in sexualized drug use. We draw on a continuum perspective of sexualized drug …
Migrant worker museums in China
This paper offers a comparative investigation of two rural migrant workers museums, one state-run in Shenzhen and another grassroots project in the suburbs of Beijing. We take museums as institutions of the politics of recognition and identity politics par excellence, and as fields of forces through which the matrices of political economy, state formation and popular culture are played out. The theoretical problematiques that frame our analyses a…
Harm Reduction Practices and Needs in a Belgian Chemsex Context
Chemsex is a growing public health concern, with little evidence-based care and support available. The aim of this study is to understand current risk reduction practices, and the information and care needs of gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) who engage in chemsex. Between January and March 2020, semi structured in-depth interviews with drug-using GBMSM ( n = 20) were conducted. Data were analyzed thematically. The repor…
Sexual dysfunction in HIV-positive men is multi-factorial
To establish the prevalence of sexual dysfunction amongst HIV-positive men and to determine the factors associated with dysfunction we conducted a cross-sectional study in seven European HIV treatment centres. Data on medical history, antiretroviral treatment and laboratory results were collected by interview and case record review. Sexual function was evaluated by the participant self-completion of a questionnaire based on the International Inde…
Les débats autour des représentations des migrants ruraux
Dans cet article, l’auteur se penche sur les représentations des migrants d’origine rurale à la fin des années 1980 et au début des années 1990, période au cours de laquelle la question des migrations commence à occuper une place de premier plan dans le débat public. Sur la base d’une analyse détaillée de la presse quotidienne et hebdomadaire, de magazines scientifiques et d’ouvrages issus de la littérature de reportage publiés entre 1986 et 1991…
Prevalence and factors associated with sexual dysfunction among HIV-positive women in Europe
Little is known on female sexual dysfunction (FSD) among HIV-positive women. A cross-sectional survey in seven European HIV centres was performed and data on medical history, antiretroviral treatment and laboratory results were collected. Sexual function was evaluated by the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). The data from 166 women were available (response rate=77%). The non-respondents had a lower CD4 cell count, were older and more frequentl…
Antiretroviral treatments used among adults with HIV infection in Europe
International guidelines for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection change rapidly. They are mainly based on results from large-scale randomized clinical trials, but also on hypotheses. The objective of the study was to look at the use of antiretrovirals (ARVs) in different HIV treatment centres in Europe. Between August 1996 and September 1997 self-administered anonymous questionnaires were distributed to persons with HIV …
Les migrations en Chine et leurs implications sur le plan urbain
Dans une Chine où le système du livret de résidence continue de diviser la population en "agricoles" et "non agricoles l'exode rural revêt une importance et des modalités particulières depuis la décollectivisation entamée à la fin des années 70. La discrimination et les stigmatisations qui frappent les migrants de la campagne à la ville sont à l'origine de conflits et de tensions qui apparaissent dans les enquêtes et dans la presse depuis le débu…
