    P a g e | 1 INTRODUCTION GENERALE 0.1. Problématique Le présent mémoire porte sur les logotypes et la signification : Analyse de la dénotation et de la connotation des logotypes des banques Trust Merchant Bank (TMB) et Rawbank. En effet, Sperber1 dit qu’il n’y a rien de plus banal que la communication, car les êtres humains sont par nature des êtres communiquant par la parole, le geste, l’écrit, l’habillement et voire le silence, etc. La célèbre école de Palo Alto le dit tout haut aussi: on ne peut pas ne pas communiquer, tout est communication2. La communication, nous la pratiquons tous les jours sans y penser (mais également en y pensant) et généralement avec un succès assez impressionnant, même si parfois nous sommes confrontés à ses limites et à ses échecs. La communication demeure l’élément fondamental et complexe de la vie sociale qui rend possible l’interaction des personnes et dont la caractéristique essentielle est, selon Daniel Lagache3, la réciprocité. Elle est ce par quoi une personne influence une autre et en est influencée, car elle n’est pas indépendante des effets de son action. Morin affirme même que la communication a plusieurs fonctions : l’information, la connaissance, l’explication et la compréhension. Toutefois, pour lui, le problème central dans la communication humaine est celui de la compréhension, car on communique pour comprendre et se comprendre4. Raison pour laquelle, les chercheurs en matière de communication, surtout de notre ère, époque marquée par l’accroissement des entreprises dans la plupart des secteurs de la vie sociale, se trouvent confronté à de nouvelles problématiques qui sont autant d’enjeux pour améliorer la communication.

  • Equateur Province Context
    Social Science in Humanitarian Action ka# www.socialscienceinaction.org # # # Key considerations: the context of Équateur Province, DRC This brief summarises key considerations about the context of Équateur Province in relation to the outbreak of Ebola in the DRC, June 2018. Further participatory enquiry should be undertaken with the affected population, but given ongoing transmission, conveying key considerations for the response in Équateur Province has been prioritised. This brief is based on a rapid review of existing published and grey literature, professional ethnographic research in the broader equatorial region of DRC, personal communication with administrative and health officials in the country, and experience of previous Ebola outbreaks. In shaping this brief, informal discussions were held with colleagues from UNICEF, WHO, IFRC and the GOARN Social Science Group, and input was also given by expert advisers from the Institut Pasteur, CNRS-MNHN-Musée de l’Homme Paris, KU Leuven, Social Science Research Council, Paris School of Economics, Institut de Recherche pour le Développment, Réseau Anthropologie des Epidémies Emergentes, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, University of Edinburgh, Stellenbosch University, University of Wisconsin, Tufts University, Institute of Development Studies, Anthrologica and others. The brief was developed by Lys Alcayna-Stevens and Juliet Bedford, and is the responsibility of the Social Science in Humanitarian Action Platform. Overview • Administrative structure – The DRC is divided into 26 provinces. In 2015, under terms of the 2006 Constitution, the former province of Équateur was divided into five provinces including the new smaller Équateur Province, which retained Mbandaka as its provincial capital.1 The province has a population of 2,543,936 and is governed by the provincial government led by a Governor, Vice Governor, and Provincial Ministers (e.g.

  • A Functional View of Linguistic Meaning
    SWAHILI FORUM 22 (2015): vi-viii REVIEW Le swahili de Lubumbashi. Grammaire, textes, lexique [The Swahili from Lubumbashi. Grammar, texts, lexicon]. Aurélia Ferrari, Marcel Kalunga, and Georges Mulumbwa. 2014. Paris: Editions Karthala, 226 pp., ISBN 978-2-8111- 1130-4. Swahili is one of the four national languages of the Democratic Republic of Congo, together with Ciluba, Kikongo and Lingala, spoken by many millions mainly located in the eastern provinces. This interesting volume, appeared amongst the recent contributions to the Karthala series “Dictionnaires et Langues” (Dictionaries and Languages) directed by Henri Tourneux, is devoted 1 to a specific variety of Congolese Swahili, i.e. the Swahili of Lubumbashi , an originally vehicular and hexogen language which, as a result of the colonial language policy (Fabian 1986), has increasingly been spoken among urban residents, principally, but not exclusively, in oral 2 communication and performance , thus entering an ongoing process of vernacularisation and becoming the first language for a part of the population of the Katangese region. The work is a result of the collaboration between Aurélia Ferrari, specialist in emerging African language varieties, presently lecturer at the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and two scholars from the DRC, experts in Swahili and Bantu languages, namely Marcel Kalunga, professor at the Universities of Lubumbashi and Kalemie, and Georges Mulumbwa, senior assistant in linguistics at the University of Lubumbashi. The book consists of three parts, the first

  • District Du Haut Katanga
    CONTEXTE : District du Haut Katanga: Lubumbashi: • Du 01 au 02 octobre, il s’est tenu la réunion de la Tripartite Plus. Ces assises ont regroupé les Chefs d’Etat-Major des pays membres de la Tripartite Plus à savoir le Burundi, l’Ouganda, le Rwanda, et la RDC en présence (sous la facilitation) du Commandant de la Force de la MONUC et de l’Attaché de Défense des Etats-Unis en RDC. La prochaine réunion de la Tripartite Plus se tiendra à Kampala en Ouganda au mois de janvier 2008. • Le 02/10/07, la pluie qui s’est abattue dans la ville de Lubumbashi et ses environs, a causé de dégâts matériels dans certains quartiers. A Kipushi, une femme est décédée de suite d’électrocution par la foudre. • Selon les informations relayées par les partenaires, des tracasseries sont perpétrées par le chargé de l’antenne des Affaires humanitaires installé à Bukama à l’endroit des acteurs humanitaires notamment dans la réinstallation des sinistrés des inondations initiée par l’ONG locale AME. OCHA a saisi les autorités locales sur ce dossier. Grâce à cette intervention, MSF-B a pu poursuivre les travaux de forage des puits dans ce site. • De violentes manifestations organisées à Kolwezi par des creuseurs artisanaux se sont soldées par d’importants dégâts matériels dont l’incendie de quelques maisons des cadres de la GECAMINES. Ces manifestations font suite aux mesures prises par la GECAMINES portant interdiction de la vente, en dehors de cette entreprise, des minerais puisés dans sa concession. • Dans la nuit du 05/10/07, une femme a été violée par des hommes en uniforme au quartier Kalemuka, située à 7 km du centre ville de Lubumbashi.
