Full textAbstract:
At the end of the Second World War, the islands of Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia were all under foreign control. The Netherlands retained West New Guinea even while control of the rest of the Dutch East Indies slipped away, while on the other side of the South Pacific, Chile held Easter Island. Pitcairn, the Gilbert and Ellice Islands, Fiji and the Solomon Islands comprised Britain's Oceanic empire, in addition to informal overlordship of Tonga. France claimed New Caledonia, the French Establishments in Oceania (soon renamed French Polynesia) and Wallis and Futuna. The New Hebrides remained an Anglo-French condominium; Britain, Australia and New Zealand jointly administered Nauru. The United States' territories included older possessions – the Hawaiian islands, American Samoa and Guam – and the former Japanese colonies of the Northern Marianas, Mar-shall Islands and Caroline Islands administered as a United Nations trust territory. Australia controlled Papua and New Guinea (PNG), as well as islands in the Torres Strait and Norfolk Island; New Zealand had Western Samoa, the Cook Islands, Niue and Tokelau. No island group in Oceania, other than New Zealand, was independent.

Full textAbstract:
Monilinia fructicola causes brown rot of stone fruit in India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Oceania, and North and South America and is in the A2 list of quarantine organisms for Europe. M. fructicola was found in peach orchards for the first time in Europe in 2001 in France (4) and later in the Czech Republic (2). M. fructicola was not detected among 428 isolates of Monilinia spp. collected from Spanish peach orchards from 1998 to 2005. In March of 2006, M. fructicola was detected to be overwintering in three mummified peach fruit (cv. Autumn Free) trees in an orchard located in Sudanell (Lleida, Spain). Morphological and molecular identification of isolates were performed according to protocols previously described (1,3). The characteristics of these isolates were: i) colonies were entire and showing concentric rings of spores when grown on potato dextrose agar (PDA); ii) sporogenous tissues were gray to buff; iii) single and nearly straight germ tubes were at least 220 μm long before branching; and iv) growth rates on PDA under long-wave UV/darkness were as much as 20 × 10 mm2. Isolates were further identified by a PCR test using primers developed with sequence-characterized amplification region markers obtained by random amplified polymorphic DNA for M. fructicola: IColaS (GAGACGCACACAGAGTCAG) and IColaAS (GAGACGCACATAGCATTGG) (3). The expected PCR product of 386 bp was produced only in M. fructicola isolates. Koch's postulates were fulfilled with the three isolates by inoculating five healthy fruit with a conidial suspension of each isolate (104 conidia ml–1). Symptoms similar to those observed in the field were small brown spots, which rapidly showed brown rot. Noninoculated control fruit did not show symptoms. The fungus was reisolated on PDA from inoculated fruit after 4 days of incubation at 22°C, 80 to 100% relative humidity, and 16 h under fluorescent lighting, 100 μE·m–2·s–1. To our knowledge, this is the first report of M. fructicola in peach orchards in Spain. References: (1) A. De Cal and P. Melgarejo. Plant Dis. 83:62, 1999. (2) J. Duchoslavová et al.

Full textAbstract:
Monilinia fructicola (G. Winter) Honey is a causal agent of brown rot of stone fruits, occasionally affecting pome fruits as well. The pathogen is commonly present in North and South America, Oceania, and Asia, but listed as a quarantine organism in Europe (4). After its first discovery in France in 2001, its occurrence has been reported in Germany, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Austria, and the Slovak Republic (1). In February 2011, during a survey for fungal postharvest pathogens in cold storage conditions, apple fruits (Malus domestica Borkh.) grown and stored in the Grocka Region, Serbia, were collected. All pathogens from symptomatic fruits were isolated on potato dextrose agar (PDA). One isolate from apple fruit cv. Golden Delicious with brown rot symptoms was identified as M. fructicola based on morphological and molecular characters. Colonies cultivated on PDA at 22°C in darkness were colorless, but later became grayish, developing mass of spores in concentric rings. Colony margins were even. Conidia were one-celled, limoniform, hyaline, measured 12.19 to 17.37 (mean 13.8) × 8.62 to 11.43 μm (mean 9.9), and were produced in branched monilioid chains (3). Morphological identification was confirmed by PCR (2) using genomic DNA extracted from the mycelium of pure culture, and an amplified product of 535 bp, specific for the species M. fructicola, was obtained. Sequence of the ribosomal (internal transcribed spacer) ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region was obtained using primers ITS1 and ITS4 and deposited in GenBank (Accession No. JN176564). Control fruits were inoculated with sterile PDA plugs. After 3 days of incubation in plastic containers with high humidity at room temperature, typical symptoms of brown rot developed on inoculated fruits, while control fruits remained symptomless. The isolate recovered from symptomatic fruits showed the same morphological and molecular features of the original isolate. To our knowledge, this is the first report of M. fructicola in Serbia. Further studies are necessary for estimation of economic importance and geographic distribution of this quarantine organism in Serbia. References: (1) R. Baker et al. European Food Safety Authority.

Monilinia fructicola (G. Wint.) Honey is a causal agent of brown rot of stone fruits but may also affect pome fruits. M. fructicola is common in North America, Oceania, and South America as well as in Asia, but it is listed as a quarantine pathogen in Europe (3). Since its first discovery in Europe in 2001 (France), it has been reported in Spain, Slovenia, Italy, and Switzerland. Recently, the fungus was also detected in orchards of blackberries and plums in the State of Baden-Württemberg, Germany (4). In July 2010, apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) of the cultivar Jonagold were found in a residential backyard in Fronhausen an der Lahn located in the State of Hessen, Germany with symptoms resembling brown rot caused by Monilinia species. Affected apples were at or near maturity with brown decay that had spread throughout the fruits. On the surface of the decaying apples was tan to white zones of sporulation. Upon isolation, the mycelium grew at a linear rate of 9.2 mm per day at 22°C on potato dextrose agar forming branched, monilioid chains of grayish colonies with concentric rings and little sporulation. The lemon-shaped spores had an average size of 14 × 9 μm, a shape and size consistent with M. fructicola. The ribosomal ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region was PCR-amplified from genomic DNA obtained from mycelium using primers ITS1 and ITS4. A BLAST search in GenBank revealed highest similarity (99%) to M. fructicola sequences from isolates collected in China, Italy, and Slovenia (GenBank Accession Nos. FJ515894.1, FJ411109.1, GU967379.1). The M. fructicola sequence from the apple isolate was submitted to GenBank (Accession No. JF325841). The pathogen was also identified to the species level and confirmed to be M. fructicola using two novel PCR techniques based on cytochrome b sequences (1,2). Pathogenicity was confirmed by inoculating three surface-sterilized, mature apples cv. Gala with a conidial suspension (105 spores/ml) of the apple isolate. Fruit were stab inoculated at three equidistant points to a depth of 10 mm using a sterile needle. A 30-μl droplet was placed on each wound; control fruit received sterile water without conidia. After 5 days of incubation at room temperature in air-tight plastic bags, the inoculated fruits developed typical brown rot symptoms with sporulating areas (as described above). The developing spores on inoculated fruit were confirmed to be M. fructicola. All control fruits remained healthy. To our knowledge, this is the first report of M. fructicola on apple in Germany and more indication of further geographical spread of the quarantine disease in Germany. References: (1) J.-M.

Full textAbstract:
In order to investigate the characteristic species and the relative importance of selected environmental conditions of rocky bottom communities in coastal waters and to estimate their richness, 27 sites in the Brest area were surveyed by diving. The abundances of underwater species, from a check-list of 115, were plotted as number of individuals or colonies in m2 or in percentage cover of the rock, against the environmental conditions (depth, bedrock slope, substrate type and sediment nature of the nearest soft bottom). Raw data were converted to biovolume expressed as mm3 m–2 and expressed as log 10 (x + 1).Various correspondence analyses were applied to these data: the first included bedrock slope (lit/dark surfaces) and takes into account the four biological formations according to the depth. It shows zonation with depth and decreasing light as factor 1, hydrodynamic conditions (waves or current) as factor 2, mixing of estuarine and oceanic waters as factor 3 and turbidity as factor 4. Four species assemblages emerge from these four axes, for which the main species contributing to the four axes may be considered as characteristic species. These correspond well to four broad communities described in British waters: very exposed to wave-action, semi-exposed to wave-action, exposed to strong tidal current, very sheltered sites. The second analysis, in which lit and dark surfaces are distinguished, but some very close sites are fused together, shows in detail the photophilous or sciaphilous nature of the species. Values of hydrodynamic conditions and percentage of surface light plotted on the 'stations-points' of the graphs allow drawing of a factorial network which may be used as hydrodynamic and illumination scales.

Full textAbstract:
In Oceania, Papua New Guinea (PNG) appears large in the consciousness of exploring social life through the notion of sociality. Scholarship within the Melanesian region employs sociality to interrogate forms of social life and the different ways research methods account for the understanding of interactions between individuals and communities. Yet for the three PNG authors this assumed coherency between epistemes and method highlighted specific conceptual challenges for us as researchers and participants. We identified with two conceptual notions: “pasin” and “luksave” as distinct Austronesian language ideas derived from Tok Pisin—a creolisation of English utilized as a lingua franca throughout the country. We explored the development of pasin and luksave and the ways the conceptual claims served a dual function of developing a methodological and epistemic pathway toward an ethical assurance of meaningful relationality. We extend on current understanding in two ways. Firstly employing the methodology of story as critique of research assumptions and secondly, extend on the process of story work to suggest storying as a novel but relatable research methodology. Storying such research experiences as both method and epistemic accountability, guided our responsibility toward the relationships we hold to people, community and knowledge. Pasin and luksave embed an emancipatory and de-colonial intent through the guise of oral stories. These intentions in our scholarship fostered a form of coherent expressions of research claim and method assumption and also raised questions for us regarding what decolonizing Papua New Guinea ought to consider. Our paper also highlights a reformulation of the different ways research considers Oceania in particular Melanesia and the Papua New Guinean research context.

"Egyptian Policy in the Context of the Transformation of US Geostrategic Approaches in the Middle East in 1953–1956." Конфликтология / nota bene, no. 3 (March 2022): 33–41. http://dx.doi.org/10.7256/2454-0617.2022.3.38207.
Full textAbstract:
The authors consider the problem of the significance of Egypt's policy in the context of the transformation of the US geostrategic approaches in the Middle East in 1953–1956. It is shown that the approaches of the United States that have undergone transformation, which sought to create a controlled military-political bloc of the states of the Middle East region, were not implemented largely due to the policy of Egypt. Continuing the implementation of the military-political project - the Baghdad Pact, Washington not only did not achieve the favor of Cairo, but also caused its extremely negative reaction, which became a derivative of the understanding that American initiatives were an attempt to strengthen Egypt's traditional rival in the struggle for leadership in the Arab world – Iraq. A special contribution of the authors to the study of the topic is the designation of the role of Egypt as a regional power capable of creating alternative military projects to American initiatives. The circumstances preventing the inclusion of Cairo in the military-political bloc of states in the Middle East initiated by the United States, which directed a number of Arab countries against such initiatives, sympathizing with the anti-colonial sentiments of the Egyptian leadership, are indicated. It was revealed that the persistence of the initiatives of the Western states and the methods of their implementation prompted Cairo to seek protection in the face of an alternative center of power. Therefore, in the conditions of aggravation of Egyptian-Israeli relations on the eve of the Suez crisis, Egypt is drawing closer to the USSR. However, Washington retained the possibility of rapprochement with Cairo, not formally becoming a member of the Baghdad Pact, and also «staying aside» in the military anti-Egyptian action of Great Britain, France and Israel.

Full textAbstract:
Far from the world, the island is the world: The island ecotones of the Indian Ocean between creolisation and liquid borders. Due to their specific geography and plural histories, the island societies of the south-western Indian Ocean are characterised by a considerable anthropological and cultural complexity. Colonial regimes and migratory and diasporic phenomena have strongly marked these territories on the oceanic borders as well as their social construction and particular ethno-racial composition. Island-as-utopia, island-as-prison, island-as-refuge, island-as-stopover, island-as-relation, island-as-world … there is no shortage of notions to imagine and describe these heterogeneous places where the realities, potentialities, and limits of (post)colonial cultural plurality are negotiated. For behind the tropical dreams and the exaltations of harmonious cohabitation (vivre-ensemble) appear the precariousness of the island condition, the ambiguity of identity, and the difficulty of anchoring oneself in and expressing oneself from a place which continues to be significantly shaped by its relations with the outside (the old and new ‘metropolises’ and places of reference, other islands). To what extent can the specificities of the Indian Ocean islands – this other ‘archipelago’ less visible than its Caribbean counterpart – inform and nourish continental territories, France, the world? Are they models of ethical solidarity? Antidotes to identity-based blockages? Laboratories of democratic thought? Creative prefigurations of the future? It may well be. However, according to certain thinkers, writers and artists from these spaces, the islands and archipelagos – far from being the idealisations of a vitalist and blissful community (en-commun) – prove to be above all plural and conflicting contact zones. They emerge as complex ecotones that allow us to imagine and think about the challenges of our contemporary societies and cultures from the ‘margins’, the interstices, the unstable borders.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse aborde l'histoire d'une entreprise familiale réunionnaise de sa fondation à la fin du XXe siècle. Les Isautier ont développé leurs affaires autour de la distillation du rhum (filière cannes/rhum). En 1918, le rachat par Alfred Isautier de la distillerie du front de mer de Saint-Pierre, une des plus anciennes de l'île, marque une césure avec les stratégies familiales. Il agrandit son domaine, fonde l'entreprise « Établissements Alfred Isautier » et l'ancre dans l'histoire familiale. A la fin des années 1950, Ses fils développent des activités dans divers domaines, profitant des atouts de l'île et de la politique de développement liée à la départementalisation. Sensible à la crise des années 1970, l'entreprise est restructurée et se concentre à nouveau sur son corps de métier, le rhum. Ce travail de recherche a pour but de montrer l'évolution de l'entreprise, ses relations avec l'économie locale, et son incidence sociale. Les établissements Isautier se sont adaptés aux difficultés inhérentes au contexte insulaire et local et aux grandes crises internationales, les stratégies menées permettant d'assurer la survie et la transmission de l'entrepriseThis doctoral thesis is about a family company in Reunion in the 19th and 20th century from its birth to 1990. The Isautier family developed their business around the sugar cane industry (sugar cane and rum). In 1918, Alfred Isautier bought the distillery, one of the oldest in the island, from the family, purchased new lands and founded his own business “Etablissements Alfred Isautier”. In the early fifties (1950), his sons started new business strategies owing to the resources of the island, and its recently acquired status of “département”. Later in the seventies, because of the crisis, the company went through a major restructuring based on rum industry. This work demonstrates the importance and influence of the company on the local economic trend and its social consequences. The “Etablissements Isautier” had a great ability in facing the insularity and the international situation, the survival and continuity of the family business issuing from the numerous strategies developed by the company

Cette thèse étudie du trafic des esclaves au départ de l’Afrique orientale (Mozambique) vers les Comores où des planteurs étrangers venaient les acheter comme engagés libres. Le sultanat de Saïd Ali né en 1883, a bénéficié de la protection de de la France en 1886. Malgré ce protectorat, l’esclavage n’est aboli qu’en 1904. Pour maintenir la main-d’œuvre coloniale, l’État protecteur a retardé cette abolition. Face aux hésitations, le sultanat est rattaché à Magascar en 1908, le sultan abdique en 1910, avant que la Grande Comore devienne colonie française en 1912This Thesis studies the slaves trade starting from East Africa to Comoros where foreign growers came to buy them as free Endentured servant. The Sultanat of Saïd Ali born in 1883 benefited of French protection in 1886. Even thought this protectorate, the slavery is abolished in 1904. To maintain the colonialworkforce, The Protecting State has delayed this abolition. In front of theses hesitations, the Sultan is attached to Madagascar in 1908, the sultan abdicated in 1910, before that the Great Comoro become a French colony in 1912

France through its three Pacific entities is a resident sovereign neighbour in Australia's region. It has been a benign influence in recent years, with strategic benefits for Australia and the region. But this has not always been the case, and its accepted future presence may not be assumed. This thesis analyses France's history in the region to derive indicators for its future policies and regional security, at a time of global change. France has earned a Pacific presence over more than four hundred years. Part I reviews its early history and motivations, which included a spirit of inquiry, internecine rivalry, national prestige and assertion of power, broadening to protection of its civil, missionary and convict populations. Economic considerations were secondary. New Caledonia's role in the American-led Pacific victory in World War II and the establislnnent of nuclear testing in French Polynesia enhanced the significance of the Pacific territories for France's national identity and strategic interests. These factors also catalysed the territories' demands for independence. Generous French financial and political inputs were accompanied by fitful and ambiguous responses. By the 1980s, France had left a poor legacy over Vanuatu's independence, unmet Kanak decolonization demands in New Caledonia had degenerated into civil war, and nuclear testing was increasingly opposed by new Pacific island states. Cosmetic efforts to counter regional opposition failed, undermined by France's bombing of an anti-nuclear vessel in New Zealand. By the end of the 1990s France was obliged to cease its nuclear testing and negotiate the Matignon/Noumea Accords deferring decisions about New Caledonia's status. Part II addresses France's recent management of its entities' demands for more autonomy and independence, and its efforts to engage in the wider region, albeit as an outside power. Its record is mixed, and unfinished, as New Caledonia will vote on its future status after 2014. France has made impressive economic and political investments in its territories and the region. But it has resisted on matters fundamental to pro-independence forces. In New Caledonia, France has been slow to resolve differences over defining electorates, has encouraged French immigration to dilute indigenous numbers, has obfuscated ethnic censuses, has sought to pre-empt agreements on deferred defence and currency questions, and has been unclear about future immigration and mining responsibilities, while scheduled handovers and economic rebalancing have slipped. In French Polynesia, France has shown a lack of tolerance for a pro-independence elected majority. Part III argues that France wants to retain sovereignty over its Pacific collectivities to enhance its international weight and for new economic reasons, as the world's second largest maritime nation through its Pacific coastlines, and given New Caledonia's nickel and hydrocarbon potential. Its ability to achieve this with regional acceptance will depend largely on peaceful democratic outcomes in its territories, particularly New Caledonia. Such outcomes are not assured. Some options for the future are identified.

Chapter 1 explores the local configuration and context of the courts (conseils supérieurs) to understand how justice was negotiated. Subjects circulated into and out of courtrooms from urban markets, overseas expeditions, and plantations. Analysis of colonial capitals, including architectural clues, reveals the physical movement and behavior of court participants, such as magistrates, bailiffs, and onlookers. This chapter makes clear the distinctions of the Atlantic and Indian Ocean tropical legal entrepôts. Where the Antillean courts relied much more on their proximity to each other and a regional identity, the Mascarene courts prioritized ties with France in an expression of vulnerability.

<em>Abstract.</em> - Sea sturgeons are closely related anadromous fishes inhabiting both shores of the North Atlantic Ocean. They are classified in two species: the European sturgeon <em>Acipenser sturio</em> in Europe and the Atlantic sturgeon <em>A. oxyrinchus</em> in North America. The Atlantic sturgeon is further separated into two subspecies: Atlantic sturgeon (North American East Coast populations) <em>A. o. oxyrinchus</em> and Gulf sturgeon <em>A. o. desotoi. </em>Most recent studies of morphology and genetics support these classifications. Furthermore, they produced evidence for a trans-Atlantic colonization event during the early Middle Ages. Atlantic sturgeon colonized Baltic waters, founding a self-reproducing population before they became extinct due to anthropogenic reasons. Today, populations of Atlantic sturgeon are found along the Atlantic Coast from the St. Johns River, Florida to the St. Lawrence River, Quebec, whereas only one relict spawning population of European sturgeon still exists in the Gironde River, France. The evidence of a population of Atlantic sturgeon in Baltic waters requires a detailed comparison of both sea sturgeon species, describing differences and similarities, which may influence the ongoing restoration projects in Europe as well as concerning conservation efforts in North America. This article reviews similarities and differences in the fields of genetics, morphology, and ecological adaptation of European sturgeon and Atlantic sturgeon, concluding that, besides morphological and genetic differences, a wider range of spawning temperatures in Atlantic sturgeon is evident. This wider temperature adaptation may be a selective advantage under fast-changing climatic conditions, possibly the mechanism that enabled the species shift in the Baltic Sea during the Middle Ages.

Full textAbstract:
The history of the Mediterranean has been presented in this book as a series of phases in which the sea was, to a greater or lesser degree, integrated into a single economic and even political area. With the coming of the Fifth Mediterranean the whole character of this process changed. The Mediterranean became the great artery through which goods, warships, migrants and other travellers reached the Indian Ocean from the Atlantic. The falling productivity of the lands surrounding the Mediterranean, and the opening of high-volume trade in grain from Canada or tobacco from the United States (to cite two examples), rendered the Mediterranean less interesting to businessmen. Even the revived cotton trade of Egypt faced competition from India and the southern United States. Steamship lines out of Genoa headed across the western Mediterranean and out into the Atlantic, bearing to the New World hundreds of thousands of migrants, who settled in New York, Chicago, Buenos Aires, São Paulo and other booming cities of North and South America in the years around 1900. Italian emigration was dominated by southerners, for the inhabitants of the southern villages saw none of the improvement in the standard of living that was beginning to transform Milan and other northern centres. For the French, on the other hand, opportunities to create a new life elsewhere could be found within the Mediterranean: Algeria became the focus of French emigration, for the ideal was to create a new France on the shores of North Africa, while keeping the wilder interior under colonial rule. Two manifestations of this policy were the rebuilding of large areas of Algiers as a European city, and the collective extension of French citizenship to 35,000 Algerian Jews, in 1870. The Algerian Jews were seen as évolé, ‘civilized’, for they had embraced the opportunities provided by French rule, opening modern schools under the auspices of the Alliance Israélite Universelle, founded to promote Jewish education on the European model, and transforming themselves into a new professional class.

Full textAbstract:
During the eighteenth century Portugal developed a large military construction process in the Ultramarine possessions, in order to compete with the new born colonial trading empires, mainly Great Britain, Netherlands and France. The Portuguese colonial seashores of the Atlantic Ocean (since the middle of the sixteenth century) and of the Indian Ocean (from the end of the first quarter of the seventeenth century) were repeatedly coveted, and the huge Portuguese colony of Brazil was also harassed in the south during the eighteenth century –here due to problems in a diplomatic and military dispute with Spain, related with the global frontiers’ design of the Iberian colonies. The Treaty of Madrid (1750) had specifically abrogated the Treaty of Tordesillas (1494) between Portugal and Spain, and the limits of Brazil began to be defined on the field. Macapá is situated in the western branch of Amazonas delta, in the singular cross-point of the Equator with Tordesillas Meridian, and the construction of a big fortress began in the year of 1764 under direction of Enrico Antonio Galluzzi, an Italian engineer contracted by Portuguese administration to the Commission of Delimitation, which arrived in Brazil in 1753. In consequence of the political panorama in Europe after the Seven Years War (1756-1763), a new agreement between Portugal and Spain was negotiated (after the regional conflict in South America), achieved to the Treaty of San Idefonso (1777), which warranted the integration of the Amazonas basin. It was strategic the decision to build, one year before, the huge fortress of Príncipe da Beira, arduously realized in the most interior of the sub-continent, 2000 km from the sea throughout the only possible connection by rivers navigation. Domingos Sambucetti, another Italian engineer, was the designer and conductor of the jobs held on the right bank of Guaporé River, future frontier’s line with Bolivia. São José de Macapá and Príncipe da Beira are two big fortresses Vauban’ style, built under very similar projects by two Italian engineers (each one dead with malaria in the course of building), with the observance of the most exigent rules of the treaties of military architecture.
