Mayotte is one of the four main islands constituting Comoros Archipelago, with Anjouan, Mohéli and Grande Comore. Among them, it is the closest island to Madagascar. So far, only one species of the mite family Phytoseiidae (Acari: Mesostigmata) had been reported from this island in an early study. In addition, only five species were recently collected from Grande Comore. In this paper, we report the results of a survey conducted at the end of 2018 in Mayotte Island, in which 18 species are reported for the first time for the Mayotte Island.

The Comoros Archipelago is constituted of four islands. These islands are located in the North Mozambique Channel in the Indian Ocean, one of the world’s hotspots of biodiversity. Despite this status of hotspot, only one species of Phytoseiidae was known from this Archipelago, from Mayotte: Phytoseius mayottae. No species were recorded from the three other islands. We report in this paper the results of a preliminary survey in Great Comoro or “Grande Comore” Island also called Ngazidja in the Comorian language (= Shikomori) with five species recorded.

Full textAbstract:
A collection of stomatopods assembled during the KUW 2009 expedition to Mayotte Island and deposited in the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle Paris is studied with a review of previous records from Comoros and Mayotte Island. In total 14 species are recognized 3 of them being new records for this region. A brief comparison with other regions studied for stomatopods indicates that sampling is still insufficient in Comoros and Mayotte and that dozens of species remain to be inventoried in that region.

The following species are recorded from the Comoro Islands for the first time: 12 species of Pentatomidae: Pentatominae—Anoano pronotalis Cachan, 1952 (from Mayotte), Antestiopsis clymeneis cf. galtiei (Frappa, 1934) (Mayotte), Bagrada hilaris (Burmeister, 1835) (Mayotte), Bathycoelia rodhaini Schouteden, 1913 (Mayotte), Coquerelia ventralis Horváth, 1904 (Mayotte), Eurysaspis transversalis Signoret, 1851 (Anjouan, Grande Comore, Mayotte), Gadarscama ebenaui Reuter, 1887 (Anjouan, Grande Comore, Mohéli, Mayotte), Lerida annulicornis (Signoret, 1861) (Anjouan, Mayotte), Neoacrosternum validum (Horváth, 1904) (Grand Comore, Mayotte), Nezara viridula (Linnaeus, 1758) (Mayotte), Piezodorus hybneri (Gmelin, 1790) (Mayotte), and Stenozygum mirabile (Signoret, 1861) (Mayotte); two species of Plataspidae—Brachyplatys hemisphaerica (Westwood, 1837) (Mayotte) and Coptosoma maculatum Westwood, 1837 (Mayotte); and one species of Scutelleridae—Hotea denticulata Stål, 1865 (Mayotte). The endemic pentatomine species Bathycoelia cuneifera Bergroth, 1893, syn. nov., is recognized as a junior subjective synonym of the widely distributed African species Bathycoelia thalassina (Herrich-Schäffer, 1844). The lectotype of B. cuneifera is designated herein. The checklist of the Pentatomoidea of Comoro Islands includes six species of Cydnidae, 21 species of Pentatomidae, two species of Plataspidae, one species of Scutelleridae and 1 species of Tessaratomidae. Of these species, six are endemic to the archipelago, 14 species are subendemic (shared with Madagascar and/or Aldabra Atoll), and nine species are widespread, occurring also on the African mainland (including the cosmopolitan pest Nezara viridula and two species of Bathycoelia Amyot & Serville, 1843 from the Guinean area, all three possibly alien to the archipelago). We document an additional eight species (six species of Pentatomidae, one species of each Scutelleridae and Tessaratomidae) that are identified to generic level only (two recorded from Grand Comore, seven from Mayotte, one of them occuring in both islands). Mayotte is the best sampled island, with 28 recorded species, followed by Grande Comore (11 species), Anjouan (six species), and Mohéli (four species). In addition the following new records are provided: Bathycoelia rodhaini from Cameroon, Central African Republic, Gabon and Zambia, Bathycoelia thalassina from Central African Republic and Ethiopia, and Piezodorus hybneri from Angola (Cabinda) and Sierra Leone. The type locality of Eurysaspis transversalis Signoret, 1851, India: Puducherry, is considered an error as the species occurs only in Madagascar and Comoros. The following plant associations are recorded from Mayotte: Bagrada hilaris on Cleome viscosa (Cleomaceae), Eurysaspis transversalis on Senna singueana (Fabaceae), and Piezosternum sp. on Cucumis sativus (Cucurbitaceae) and Mikania capensis (Asteraceae).

Full textAbstract:
The population of the Mayotte brown lemur Eulemur fulvus fulvus on the island of Mayotte in the Indian Ocean was reported to have decreased by 50% between 1975 and 1987, from 50,000 to 25,000. From a series of censuses carried out in 1999 and 2000 in the various vegetation types of the island, we estimate that the lemur population now numbers 42,000–72,000. The decline observed in 1987 may have been largely caused by the cyclone that devastated Mayotte in 1984. That the population has recovered must not obscure the fact that loss of forest, increased human pressure associated with further development of infrastructure, and changes in agricultural practices will undoubtedly continue to affect this species on Mayotte.

As A Result of The Rupture and Confinement Effects Experienced Following Arrival on The Island, Some Individuals Studied, Despite Having Been Unaffected By Psychiatric Disorders In The Past, Go On To Develop Some Particular Psychiatric Symptoms. We Will Show How the Discovery of An Exotic Insular Psychic Space Can Lead to The Emergence of Different Clinical Syndromes. This Study Was Born from The Psychiatric Treatment of Expatriate Patients On The Island Of Mayotte, Using Psychodynamic Techniques And Methods. The Island Is Associated with Specific Symbolisms That Are Sources of Vulnerability: Separation, Lack of Space, Promiscuity, Discontinuity of The Human Bond, Paradoxical Temporality. Moreover, The Mental Representation of Such A Confined, Limited Space, Invested With An Ancient Imaginary, Is Influenced By Some Universal Myths. As An Object of Desire, The Island Is The Source Of Phantasmatic Projections, And One’s Arrival There In Reality Proves To Be Potentially Pathogenic And Can Reveal A Previously Dormant Psychic Precariousness.

Full textAbstract:
The amphibian fauna of the western Indian ocean volcanic island of Mayotte is currently constituted by two species belonging to two genera of the anuran family Mantellidae: Blommersia transmarina and Boophis nauticus. These were recently described after intense fieldwork on the herpetofauna of the island. We here describe a third new species of frog from Mayotte, based on morphological and molecular data, that occurs in sympatry with the others and was utterly unnoticed until now. Genetic analyses of the16S rRNA gene, including all described and several undescribed species of the genus Blommersia from Madagascar and Mayotte, confirms that the new species is the sister species of Blommersia transmarina. Both species show apparent morphological differences as well as different life histories, ecology and genetics that confirm Blommersia nataliaesp. nov. as a new species. We propose an IUCN Red List status of Critically Endangered for B. nataliaesp. nov.

Full textAbstract:
La leptospirose est une zoonose de répartition mondiale dont les formes graves peuvent être mortelles pour l'Homme. Tous les mammifères sont susceptibles d'être réservoirs, la connaissance des hôtes réservoirs de Leptospira est essentielle à la mise en place de mesures de prévention. L'objectif de ce travail était de conduire une étude épidémiologique descriptive transversale de la leptospirose animale dans deux îles de l'Océan Indien : La Réunion et Mayotte. À La Réunion, 579 animaux appartenant à 13 espèces ont été prélevés. Nous montrons que la maladie circule chez l'ensemble des espèces, sa séroprévalence varie de 15,7% chez les tangues à 79,8% chez les rats, tandis que la prévalence du portage rénal varie de 0% chez les tangues à 84,6% chez les souris. Ce travail est le premier qui quantifie la charge bactérienne rénale d'animaux infectés naturellement. À Mayotte, 292 animaux ont été étudiés. La séroprévalence est de 2% chez les lémuriens, 10,2% chez les roussettes, 11,2% chez les rats noirs alors qu'elle est supérieure à 85% chez les chiens. Nous confirmons l'absence du sérogroupe Icterohaemorrhagiae à Mayotte et montrons que le sérogroupe Mini est le principal sérogroupe circulant chez les rats et les chiens non vaccinés. La prévalence du portage rénal a été estimée à 29,8% chez les rats. Les résultats du séquençage montrent une grande diversité génétique des souches circulant chez le rat ainsi qu'une parfaite homologie avec celles isolées chez des patients mahorais, désignant le rat noir comme source majeure de contamination pour l'Homme. Dans des zones tropicales comme La Réunion et Mayotte, la prophylaxie doit considérer l'écosystème dans sa globalitéLeptospirosis is a widespread zoonosis which could be letal for humans. All mammals could be reservoir of the bacteria in their kidneys and knowledge about the maintenance hosts is essential to improve preventive measures. The aim of this work was to conduct an epidemiological descriptive transversal study on animal leptospirosis on two Indian Ocean islands: Reunion and Mayotte. In Reunion Island, we studied 579 mammals belonging to 13 species. Results showedthat seroprevalence of leptospirosis varied greatly regarding the species, from 15.7% in the insectivorous tenrecs, to 79.5% in rats and prevalence of the renal carriage varied from 0% in tenrecs to 84.6% in mice. This is the first report that evaluates the concentration of leptospires in the kidney tissue of naturally infected mammals. In Mayotte, 292 animals were studied. We showed that the seroprevalence was 2% in lemurs, 10.2% in flying foxes, 11.2% in black rats, while it was over 85% in domestic and stray dogs. We showed that Mini was the most prevalent serogroup found in rats and nonvaccinated dogs and corroborated recent findings showing that serogroup Icterohaemorrhagiae was not present in Mayotte. We reported 29.8% of renal carriage amongst rats. DNA sequencing showed a great diversity among Leptospira strains circulating within rat population and a perfect homology with the strains isolated from ill patients in Mayotte. These results strongly suggest that black rats are the main source of human contamination in Mayotte. These data have practical applications in human and veterinary medicine. In tropical areas such as Reunion and Mayotte islands, prophylaxia should be considered at the ecosystem level

Full textAbstract:
Dans cette étude, nous cherchons à dresser le bilan de l’altération à l’échelle de l’île de Mayotte (en surface et en souterrain), à contraindre l’impact des facteurs de contrôle dominant l’altération, puis à caractériser les processus impliqués dans les fractionnements des isotopes du silicium à l’échelle du profil d’altération.Deux campagnes d’échantillonnage incluant des eaux de rivières et des eaux souterraines ont été réalisées en saison humide et sèche, complétées par le prélèvement mensuel de 5 rivières. La prise en compte des crues (3 % de l’année) dans le calcul des taux d’altération moyens annuels en rivière a entraîné une augmentation de ≈32 % du bilan annuel. Le taux d’altération chimique global de l’île de Mayotte s’élève à 94 t/km²/an (81 t/km²/an en surface & 131 t/km²/an en souterrain). Nos résultats mettent en avant le rôle prépondérant des écoulements souterrains dans le transport de matériel dissous directement à l’océan. La contribution du domaine souterrain au bilan de l’altération diminue avec l’âge des formations, soulignant l’implication de l’âge des roches du bassin versant comme paramètre clé dans le contrôle des taux d’altération.Les isotopes du Si ont été analysés sur des roches totales le long de profils d’altération associés à différentes conditions d'altération du régolite : météorique (basse température) ou hydrothermale (haute température). À l’échelle du profil, les deux types de régimes ont montré un appauvrissement en 30Si en fonction du degré d’altération. À l’échelle du minéral, le fractionnement des isotopes du Si s’est révélé plus négatif pendant la précipitation de kaolinite secondaire à haute température qu’à basse températureIn this study, we seek to establish the weathering budget at the scale of the island of Mayotte (rivers and groundwater), to constrain the impact of dominant control factors to the weathering both locally and at a global scale, and then to characterize the processes involved in the fractionation of silicon isotopes across the weathering profile.Two field campaigns, in order to sample river water and groundwater, were carried out during wet and dry season, supplemented by the monthly monitoring of 5 rivers. By taking account of river floods (3% of the year) in the calculation of average annual weathering rates in the river has increased the annual weathering budget by ≈32%. The overall rate of Mayotte Island chemical weathering is 94 t/km²/yr (81 t/km²/yr from surface & 131 t/km²/yr from underground). Our results highlight the important role of groundwater flow to the dissolved material export directly to the ocean. The contribution of groundwater to the weathering budget decreases with the age of the geological formations, highlighting the involvement of the age of the rocks of the watershed as a key parameter in the weathering rates control.Si isotopes were analyzed for whole rock along two weathering profiles associated with different alteration conditions of the regolith: meteoric (low temperature) or hydrothermal (high temperature). At the weathering profile scale, the two types of alteration regimes showed 30Si depletion as a function of the degree of weathering. At the mineral scale, Si isotope fractionation was more negative during the secondary kaolinite precipitation at high temperatures than at low temperatures

Full textAbstract:
Les relations interspécifiques sont un indicateur naturel de l'état de santé d'un écosystème et de son éventuelle évolution. Dans le contexte actuel de changement climatique et d'intensification des activités humaines, nous décrivons, par une approche intégrée, les interactions existant entre les tortues vertes et leurs ressources trophiques, afin de contribuer à la compréhension de la dynamique de la biodiversité marine. La tortue verte est la seule tortue marine herbivore aux stades sub-adulte et adulte. Elle se nourrit principalement sur des herbiers de phanérogames marines et des algueraies en milieu côtier relativement peu profonds et constitue ainsi un modèle privilégié pour étudier l'écologie trophique et fonctionnelle des tortues marines en conditions naturelles. Le travail présenté dans ce manuscrit étudie deux populations de tortues vertes : la première s'alimentant de phanérogames marines sur le site de N'Gouja à Mayotte et la seconde d'algues benthiques sur la côte ouest de l'Ile de La Réunion. A ce stade de l'étude, le système tortues vertes-herbier est le mieux connu. Nous proposons une synthèse des relations existant entre le comportement de plongée et d'alimentation d'individus juvéniles et adultes avec la disponibilité trophique au sein d'un herbier marin plurispécifique. Ceci a été obtenu à partir de systèmes d'acquisition embarqués, d'observation directes de tortues vertes et de relevés phyto-écologiques conventionnels. Par ailleurs, notre étude a permis d'engager le suivi du système tortues vertes - herbier marin de N'Gouja et d'en décrire les premières tendances. En quatre ans, une diminution de près de 80 % de la biomasse végétale du site de N'Gouja accentue la pression d'herbivorie des tortues vertes sur l'herbier. Ce phénomène entraîne l'appauvrissement de la diversité spécifique des phanérogames en faveur des espèces végétales pionnières. La diminution parallèle de l'effectif de la population de tortues vertes du site de N'Gouja suggère un modèle alimentaire basé sur le principe de densité-dépendance. Les conséquences d'une surexploitation de l'herbier par les tortues vertes sont alors en opposition avec celles obtenues suite à la simulation d'une pression d'herbivorie nulle. Nous montrons que sous une pression d'herbivorie modérée, un stade successionel intermédiaire de l'herbier est maintenu et la diversité spécifique est favorisée par la diminution des capacités compétitives des espèces consommées. Il découle ainsi de notre étude des indicateurs du stade phytodynamique d'un herbier plurispécifique et de la pression d'herbivorie exercée par les tortues vertes qui permettent d'envisager les réponses écosystémiques d'un système tel que celui de N'Gouja sous différents scénarios environnementaux. Enfin, dans un cadre plus large, nous posons la question de savoir si l'évolution statutaire de Mayotte peut contribuer à approfondir et pérenniser la protection des tortues marines qui se trouvent sur son territoire. Nous décrivons la départementalisation comme un moyen d'accentuer le processus de clarification du droit applicable à Mayotte et d'assurer des moyens humains, matériels, et financiers nécessaires à la protection de l'environnement. Des recensements aériens réalisés au dessus de la côte ouest de l'île de La Réunion révèlent la présence d'individus sexuellement matures et immatures, dont le nombre augmente depuis 1996. Cette approche nous aura permis d'identifier une fréquentation préférentielle des habitats coralliens et de décrire, à partir d'observations sous-marines parallèles, la côte ouest de l'île comme un site d'alimentation d'individus matures et d'individus en phase de croissance. Ce travail renforce les bases scientifiques nécessaires à la mise en place de stratégies de conservation des tortues marines et de leurs habitats.

Fondée sur une ethnographie de longue durée à La Chaumière, cette thèse souhaite prendre pour objet l’analyse de la migration mahoraise dans les processus de constructions identitaires propres à La Réunion. Les migrants mahorais deviennent alors un enjeu et un objet des politiques locales qui questionnent leur place au sein de la société réunionnaise. À partir d’une imprégnation quotidienne, l’analyse d’un territoire délimité – La Chaumière – permet de comprendre à l’échelle départementale les modalités de migration, les stratégies d’adaptation et l’émergence de nouvelles territorialités des populations en provenance de Mayotte et des Comores en contexte réunionnais.

Venue du dernier département français, la majorité de sa population est musulmane, dite de tradition bantoue, et émigre massivement vers La Réunion depuis les années 2000. Les modalités de migration et les stratégies d’adaptation sont complexes, et interpellent la cohabitation culturelle et cultuelle réunionnaise.

The mahoran migrants become a challenge for local policies, it poses a question a what place for the mahoran migrants in the reunion society. Starting from a daily observation, these analysis of a delimitated territory – La Chaumière – makes it possible to understand the methods of migration, the adaptation strategies and the emergence of new territorialities of this population who comes from Mayotte Island and Comorian Union to Reunion Island from a departemental point of view. Moreover, this choice to study a group within a territorial framework delimited in a city where local policy tends to develop cultural and religious diversity allows to evaluate the various methods of migratory construction projects and the establishment of these French families from Mayotte Island. Coming from the lastest French department, the majority of its population is Muslim, with some bantu tradition and has massively emigrated in Reunion island since the 2000’s. These migration methods and these adaptation strategies are complex and challenge the cultural and cultual Reunion island cohabitation.

Full textAbstract:
A Mayotte, le droit privé régit la situation juridique civile des Mahorais fondant leur vie maritale sur les coutumes du mahr, la répudiation, la polygamie et le logement familial chez la femme mariée. Sa réforme insiste sur le réalisme dans la modernisation du droit régissant les rapports juridiques de ces derniers. Elle tend à focaliser ses sources sur une législation écrite qui respecte la lettre des dispositions du Code civil. Elle oriente le rapport de la coutume et de la loi sur leur concurrence et non leur complémentarité. Elle implique la primauté et l'établissement de l'exclusivité des sources écrites légiférées. Elle favorise une application ne distinguant pas les statuts civils d'appartenance des Mahorais. Elle aligne le statut civil établi par les coutumes sur le statut civil défini par les articles 75 et 34 de La Constitution en vigueur. Elle revient sur le maintien des droits coutumiers, rendant difficile, voire impossible leur exercice. Elle entraine des situations de non-droit et non-saisies par le droit. Le mariage de droit coutumier est rapproché du concubinage et non du mariage civil. L'intention matrimoniale des Mahorais n'est pas reconnue par le droitIn Mayotte, the private law governs the civil legal situation of Mahorais basing their marital life on the customs of the mahr, the repudiation, the polygamy and the family housing at the married woman. Its reform emphasizes on the realism in the modernization of the law governing the legal reports of the latter. It tends to focus its sources on a written legislation which respects the letter of the clauses of the civil code. It directs the report of the custom and the law on their competition and not their complementarity. It involves the superiority and the establishment of the exclusivity of the legislated written sources. It promotes an application without distinguishing the civil statutes of membership of Mahorais. It aligns the civil statute established by the customs on the civil statute defined by articles 75 and 34 of the current Constitution. It returns on the preservation of the common laws, making difficult, even impossible their exercise. It entails situations of lawlessness and unapprised by the law. The marriage of common law is moved closer to the cohabitation and not to the civil wedding. The matrimonial intention of Mahorais is not recognized by the law

Moreover, this choice to study a group within a territorial framework delimited in a city where local policy tends to develop cultural and religious diversity allows to evaluate the various methods of migratory construction projects and the establishment of these French families from Mayotte Island. Coming from the lastest French department, the majority of its population is Muslim, with some bantu tradition and has massively emigrated in Reunion island since the 2000’s. These migration methods and these adaptation strategies are complex and challenge the cultural and cultual Reunion island cohabitation. A multiculturalism constantly questioned by the living place and unemployment problems, the increase of racist conflicts and speeches, and by the reflection of the reunion identity

Full textAbstract:
Le milieu littoral des espaces insulaires ultra-marins intertropicaux français est doublement impacté par les aléas hydro-climatiques et sismiques naturels, et par les actions anthropiques déstabilisatrices locales ou globales. Le mémoire traite spécifiquement des cas de Wallis & Futuna et de Lifou (archipel des Loyauté) dans le Pacifique sud et de Mayotte dans l’océan Indien. Il aborde, sous une approche pluridisciplinaire, les différentes facettes du potentiel d’adaptation des populations locales aux variations du niveau marin de différents ordres : ponctuel (associés aux vagues de tempêtes et de tsunami) et global (avec la transgression liée au réchauffement climatique mis en évidence par la communauté scientifique). La montée des eaux, qui semble inéluctable à moyen terme, et les risques hydro-climatiques et sismiques (tsunamis) actuels impliquent que les sociétés devront, dans un futur plus ou moins proche, ajuster leur vision des modes d’occupation de l’espace et tout particulièrement celle du domaine littoral sur lequel vit l’essentiel des populations des îles étudiées. Le croisement des différentes approches disciplinaires abordées dans le mémoire permet de proposer des méthodes et des outils novateurs en vue d’une optimisation des stratégies d’adaptation à la montée des eauxThe coastal environment of French overseas territories is both affected by the hydroclimatic and natural seismic hazards, and local or global destabilizing anthropogenic actions. This PhD deals specifically with cases of Wallis and Futuna and Lifou (Loyalty Islands) in the South Pacific, and Mayotte in the Indian Ocean. In a multidisciplinary approach, it gets onto the different facets of the adaptation potential of local societies when it comes to changes at sea level: occasional (associated with storm waves and tsunami) and global (with sea level rise related to global warming). The sea level rise, that seems inevitable in the medium term, hydro-climatic and seismic (tsunami) risks, means that local societies will probably adjust and organize their territories in a different way, especially coastal area (the most occupied space at the island scale). The different disciplinary approaches crossing can offer innovative tools and methods for optimizing the sea level rise adaptation strategies

Full textAbstract:
Chapter four recounts the arrival of Malagasy leaders on the islands of Mwali and Mayotte in order to profoundly shape the history of the latter island, sold to France to become a colony in 1841. The political maneuvers between France, Britain, Madagascar and Zanzibar had significant consequences on the three smaller islands, particularly as the British tried to suppress the slave trade, the fulcrum of local economies and the source of labor for French plantations on Mayotte. Only Ngazidja remained apart, until finally, towards the end of the century, both Britain and Zanzibar renounced their claims to and influence over the archipelago and France declared protectorates over the three westernmost islands. The development of struggling plantation economies on all the islands and the loss of their historical economic mercantile activities would spell economic disaster for the islands.

Full textAbstract:
The Union of Comoros is a sovereign archipelago nation in the Indian Ocean, located at the northern end of the Mozambique Channel. The countries closest to Comoros are Madagascar, Tanzania, and Malawi. Comoros is formed by three major islands, Ngazidja (Grande Comore), Mwali (Mohéli), and Nzwani (Anjouan), and a number of small islets. The island of Mayotte, although geographically part of the Comoros archipelago, voted against independence from France in 1974 and is now a French overseas department to which the laws of the Union of Comoros do not apply. Excluding the island of Mayotte, the Union of Comoros is 1812 square kilometres (km) and has a population of 795,601. The official language of Comoros is Shikomor (commonly called ‘Comorian’), while French and Arabic are the national languages. Shikomor is widely spoken among the population, and French is used for education and within the administration. The currency used is the Comorian franc (KMF).

Full textAbstract:
A further coup d’etat in 1995 did nothing to improve the national economy, mismanagement and the national Ngazidja-dominated government’s lack of sensitivity. It finally led to a declaration of independence instituted by the island of Ndzuani in 1997. An armed intervention to restore order was a disastrous failure, and following the death of president Taki a military government led by Azali Assoumani took over and negotiated an agreement between the islands that finally led to the establishment of a new structure – the Union of the Comoros – that was intended to guarantee the islands a degree of autonomy. A rotating presidency was largely symbolic and the political struggles of the early 21st century were personified by Ngazidja’s Azali and Ndzuani’s Sambi, the former, re-elected president, potentially for ten years, in 2019, becoming increasingly authoritarian. Meanwhile, Mayotte became a French department.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter six begins with a survey of the local economy and the problems facing the new state. A coup d’état that occurred a month after independence led to a revolutionary government under Ali Soilihi, which took power and attempted to restructure the economy, as well as society more widely. Increasingly radical, faced with empty coffers and the return of 16,000 Comorians fleeing riots in Madagascar, the government was finally overthrown in a coup d’état in 1978, which ushered in a decade of despotic rule by Ahmed Abdallah, supported by Bob Denard and his mercenaries. Political repression and economic and political dependence on France and South Africa saw the country increasingly marginalized until Abdallah was finally assassinated in 1989. Meanwhile Mayotte moved closer to France, which had pledged a substantial investment program and showed no signs of abandoning the island.

Full textAbstract:
The incorporation of the islands into the colony of Madagascar, as a remote and neglected province, led to economic decline. Colonial plantation owners expropriated large tracts of land leaving little for the local populations. The colonial government lacked the resources to develop the colony and there was a limited understanding of local culture. The customary wedding systems developed significantly during the colonial era, as did Sufism, the latter of which was of some concern to the French. Following the Second World War growth in political awareness was slow and the archipelago was not ready to accede to independence as other colonies had done in 1960. Growing differences between Mayotte and the other islands led to outbreaks of violence, and when territorial president Ahmed Abdallah finally declared independence in 1975, Mayotte chose to remain French.

Full textAbstract:
The socio-economic environment of the outermost regions of the European Union was severely affected by the COVID-19 crisis. Due to their geographical and historical specificities, the outermost regions were significantly lagging behind the rest of the European Union in terms of economic indicators even in the pre-pandemic period. Expectedly, COVID-19-induced shocks additionally potentiated their development gap. The purpose of this paper is to summarise the multiple impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Guadeloupe, French Guiana, Réunion, Martinique, Mayotte, and Saint Martin (France), the Azores and Madeira (Portugal), and the Canary Islands (Spain), and the related legislative responses of the European Union aiming at eliminating adverse effects of the crisis and building more resilient societies. The factual assessment is carried out primarily through the prism of the European Commission’s 2021 Study on the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Outermost Regions, which underlines the health, economic and social repercussions of the crisis as well as a recommended set of recovery and resilience-building measures in the outermost regions. The legal analysis focuses on the ongoing codification of the rules and measures regulating the governance of the outermost regions as integral parts of the European Union. Pursuant to Article 349 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), the European Union shall adopt specific measures for laying down the conditions for the development of the outermost regions, such as those in the area of fiscal policy, European Structural and Investment Funds, State-aid, agriculture and fisheries policies, and others. In that regard, the paper looks into the recently adopted regulations facilitating the use of EU funds and particular benefits (e.g. tax exemptions) in the outermost regions. Special emphasis is put on the currently tabled initiatives for an updated regulatory framework enabling the outermost regions to improve and strengthen their overall socio-economic position. That mainly refers to the forthcoming European strategy for the outermost regions, to be adopted in 2022. The respective strategy shall lay the foundations for a new strategic approach of the European Union to shaping a sustainable and resilient future for the outermost regions apt to face the challenges of the 21st century, notably those related to green, digital, and demographic transition.
