He is not a minister, official or even a citizen. He is a Bangladeshi expatriate who had a chance to get rich and powerful without any restrictions or fear. We have all read about and saw Samson in several movies and cartoons. He was introduced to us as a man of superhuman strength who nonetheless could not escape tragedy. Samson is the biblical Hercules and he was the last of the judges of the ancient Israelites mentioned in the Book of Judges in the Hebrew Bible.

Ipsos Editions Novembre 2018 ©2018 - Ipsos 3 ON EST ENSEMBLE ? IPSOS FLAIR: COMPRENDRE POUR ANTICIPER Henri Wallard Deputy CEO Le flair est une aptitude à discerner par l’odeur. Le chien en a. Ipsos aussi, qui détient une aptitude à prévoir. Dans le langage du sport, le flair est la reconnaissance que l’on donne à son vainqueur ; notre French flair nous oblige vers vous. Des milliers d’informations sont analysées et transmises chaque jour par Ipsos. En Côte d’Ivoire, comme dans les 89 autres pays où nous sommes installés. Mais que deviennent-elles ‘après’ ; après la présentation des résultats, la remise du rapport, la prise de décision des clients ? Ces informations reflètent une société et une époque, des valeurs, des croyances…, tout ce qui est à l’origine des motivations et des choix, autrement dit, tout ce qui détermine et organise le processus de décision, tout ce qui aide à fabriquer de la fidélité ou à traquer l’infidélité. Identifier les ressorts qui animent les partis-pris et les crispations des consommateurs-citoyens, voilà l’enjeu de Flair. Considérant les résultats d’étude comme des symptômes sociologiques, Ipsos les analyse pour définir une cartographie des tendances, structurantes et émergentes.

IPSOS FLAIR: UNDERSTAND TO ANTICIPATE Henri Wallard Deputy CEO Flair in French is the ability to discern something, often associated with perceptiveness. Ipsos’s goal is to help in understanding the multiple facets of individuals, along with markets and societies across the world. Thousands of pieces of information are analysed and transmitted every day by Ipsos. In the Ivory Coast, as in the other 89 countries where we have a presence. But what happens to them ‘after’; after the findings have been presented, the report sent, after the clients have made their decision? All that information reflects a society and an era, along with values, perspectives…, anything that is a source of motivations and choices, in other words, anything that determines and organises the decision-making process, anything that helps to create loyalty or track disloyalty. Identifying the mechanisms that drive viewpoints and tensions among citizen-consumers, that is the challenge for Flair. Viewing study results as sociological indicators, Ipsos analyses them to come up with a mapping of structuring and emerging trends. Each study subject is an opportunity to identify consumers’ adjacent concerns: talking about a brand, a service or a medium also involves each person talking about his or her own life, feelings and convictions. The same applies in public and social affairs, since 4 IPSOS FLAIR COLLECTION | IVORY COAST 2019 Ipsos Flair was born out of a desire to highlight the rich potential of the various Ipsos business units, combining their different types of expertise to propose a theory of the consumer and anticipate change.

  • I “'Cause This Is Africa”: Contesting Visual, Sonic, and Performed
    “’Cause this is Africa”: Contesting Visual, Sonic, and Performed Representations of Africa in Paris, Montreal, and the 2010 South African World Cup Julia G. Day A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Christina Sunardi, Chair Shannon Dudley Richard Watts Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music i ©Copyright 2017 Julia G. Day ii University of Washington Abstract “’Cause this is Africa”: Contesting Visual, Sonic, and Performed Representations of Africa in Paris, Montreal, and the 2010 South African World Cup Julia G. Day Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. Christina Sunardi Music This dissertation examines ways in which representations of contemporary Africa are created, perpetuated, subverted, and reinforced through African popular music in Paris, France, Montreal, Canada, and the 2010 World Cup Games in South Africa. As a response to the notion established by scholars such as Achille Mbembe (2001) and Kofi Agawu (2003) who assert that postcolonial discourse on Africa creates a binary that reinforces the otherness of Africa, I suggest that the notion of Afropolitanism provides an alternative approach to understanding representations of contemporary Africa in a way that recognizes the multiplicities of transnational identities and cultural products without writing out the importance of the African continent. I view the artists whose music I analyze as contributors, whether intentionally or not, to a sense of Afropolitanism that straddles multiple levels of representation in a single event. I ultimately argue that representation of contemporary Africa is complex and that Afropolitanism as a framework recognizes the complexities of these representations.
