Le jardinage amateur comme modèle pour une imagerie de l’espace public contemporain ? by Aurélien Ramos

“…How can the interest of French municipalities in recent years for informal and amateur gardening practices in public spaces be explained? Photographed and compiled by local authorities, these practices fundamentally renew the imagery of contemporary public spaces by introducing aesthetics previously confined to the private domestic garden. …”

Le Parc Méric à Montpellier : représentations sociales d’un parc public entre campagne, jardin et nature sauvage by Gaëlle Aggéri

“…Motivated by the desire to use ecological engineering methods and of offering city dwellers a variety of green spaces ranging from the traditional sophisticated garden to “wild” open spaces, the directors of municipal parks and green spaces have experimented with what is called in France “La gestion différenciée” or “the differentiated management” of green spaces.Parallel with this essentially technical approach, the evolution of the idea of “urban nature”, demanded by the directors of municipal parks and green spaces, brought about the creation of alternative public parks, whose image and use refer strongly to the pastoral and “the wild”.This study investigates the physical and symbolic construction of this new type of nature, in particular with the example of the design and the social representations of the “Parc Méric” in Montpellier, a former bourgeois rural estate. …”

Protecting the Autonomy of Patients with Severe Mental Illness Through Psychiatric Advance Directive Peer-Facilitation by Nicholas Karasik

“…"[28] This duty extends through a respectful attitude toward the patient and respectful action toward the patient.[29] On average, patients with SMI take 14.6 minutes to complete a PAD, which is well within the 30-minute time limit imposed by insurance reimbursement schedules.[30] However, as other researchers have indicated, this time of completion does not take into account the time required to inform and discuss the implications of future treatment decisions adequately.[31] Given that those living with SMI are often affected by cognitive deficits, the ability of a provider to relay complex health and legal information promptly may be further hamstrung.[32] By offloading the burden of providing efficient and practical education to patients with various levels of cognitive impairment, peer-support specialists could provide the necessary space and time to obtain informed consent and protect patient autonomy.  …”
