Rapport sur les applications des sciences de la complexité en matière de politique publique : de nouveaux instruments pour découvrir conséquences imprévues et opportunités inédites

15-oct.-2009

Les responsables politiques rencontrent de façon croissante des problèmes critiques impliquant un grand nombre de composantes interdépendantes, susceptibles de comportements imprévisibles et incontrôlables à grande échelle. Ceux-ci sont appelés par les scientifiques des « systèmes complexes ».  Les sciences de la complexité constituent un domaine émergeant dédié à la compréhension, à la prédiction et à la gestion de tels systèmes complexes. Ce rapport explore les possibilités d’applications de cette science en matière de conception et d’implémentation des politiques gouvernementales.

Conférence de l’OCDE sur la protection du consommateur dans l’économie Internet, Washington D.C., 8–10 décembre 2009

du 08-déc.-2009 au 10-déc.-2009

La crise économique a durement touché le commerce de détail, mais elle a par ailleurs dopé le commerce électronique, du fait de l’augmentation du nombre de cyberconsommateurs, comme l’indique un nouveau rapport de l’OCDE. Ce secteur se développerait encore plus rapidement si les entreprises et les pouvoirs publics faisaient davantage pour relever les défis croissants de la protection des droits et de la vie privée des consommateurs et pour lutter contre la fraude, estime l’OCDE.

But there are substantial discrepancies in access to ICTs between, but also within, countries, depending on key factors such as gender, rural coverage, skills and educational levels. This workshop, organised jointly by the World Bank/infoDev and the OECD, aimed to share best practices in coherent approaches to meeting development objectives laid out by Ministers.
