Testo completoBecause they are fundamentally exporters of raw materials, communities that are economically dependent on natural resources are particularly vulnerable to cyclical and structural movements. Such is the case of the maritime fishing zones of eastern canada. In addition to facing a serious reduction in resources, they have to adjust their commercial fishing industry to the 1990s, at a time when the marketing and distribution of marine foods are also becoming increasingly complex. These processes are now obliged to adapt to the gradual withdrawal of the welfare state, after two decades of over-dependence on it. But eastern canada is not a homogenous region in terms of fisheries. A distinction must be made between the gulf of Saint Lawrence on the one hand, and the atlantic coast on the other. The gulf fishing industry has a more modest industrial profile and is more firmly rooted in traditions, more fragmented and probably more difficult to manage. However, it has certain advantages, including comparative diversity of primary resources as well as a more flexible entrepreneurial structure more strongly anchored in the community. The coastal industry, on the other hand, depends more on ground fish species that have become hard to exploit owing to increasing problems of primary supply, as well as substantial changes in demand. Nevertheless, this sector benefits from solid corporate structures which, in today's context, can help it to adjust more rapidly to changes in the industry. Although the coastal fishing industry and its gulf counterpart have different biological, physical, material and human resources for tackling change, it appears that the consequences for communities dependent on fishing are varied on both sides. This thesis explores these various aspects, focusing more closely on the rerequisites and conditions for adaptation in the gulf's maritime zones

Testo completoIn a period disrupted by war, with disastrous consequences, harsh winters and diseases affecting men as well as livestock, communities and land owners engaged in leasing land to tenants to provide the population with staples at prices and conditions of sale that were regulated according to government quality controls and specific health measures. In doing this, successful communities maintained economic balance and combined the interests of both land owners and farm tenants and residents; moreover, this idea of solidarity prevailed in the will to implement this new system of farming and not that of crude profitability, meaning that farms were not only introduced to increase the municipal budget nor managed with individual land owners’ interests in mind. With a set of rules, put in place by the government, support from individual land owners, and a contract, ‘for the public good’, this structured approach notes the establishment of Supply Services is a public service and becoming a truly administrative law

Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris, EHESS, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024EHES0033.
Testo completoCalais, Boulogne, Fécamp, Concarneau and Douarnenez. Presenting both similarities and differences, these five port observatories on the north-western French coast are the subject of a comparative history over a period dating back to the 19th century, from the1840s until the eve of the First World War. The fishing industry has organised these towns since their foundation, and has partially, and sometimes totally, determined their urban topography. It would appear that maritime districts, i.e., urban areas where populations whose activity is organised around fishing congregate, existed, even if it is necessary to retrace their evolution, contours and characteristics, whether material or symbolic. There, live men who earn their livelihoods from the sea by fishing inshore (sardine) or offshore (herring, cod), as do women who fish on foot, particularly when catches at sea are insufficient and their husbands' earnings are too low. Many of them work in fish processing workshops and then in canning factories. Together with other key players involved in maritime activities, these fishing families form maritime communities. The aim is therefore to identify and analyse the relationships that develop within these communities as well as with other city dwellers, and that decisively shape the urban morphology of these ports, while the social and economic transformations brought about by the Industrial Revolution disrupt the territories from the second half of the nineteenth century onwards. Those transformations, whether demographic, particularly in the towns of Finistère, where the number of inhabitants grows spectacularly, or economic, with ever-increasing catches of fish, the development of transport that enables more fish to be transported to places of consumption and the rise in canning in Brittany that is to make the fortunes of Douarnenez and Concarneau, significantly alter the spatial layout of these communities and their neighbourhoods. The cultural elements and then social protest that emerged at the turn of the century contribute to this effective plasticity. This work, which falls under social history and cultural geography, draws on documentation largely based on extremely diverse and widely scattered archives. It makes it possible to comprehend the reconfiguration of maritime districts which territoriality can inevitably be read on different scales. Linking history, society and territory thus allows multiple angles from which to establish an operational typology of maritime districts based on the five selected sites. At the end of this work, it seems that the hypothesis envisaged at the outset cannot be retained
Diaw, Alioune Badara. "La politique des transports maritimes entre la Communauté européenne et les pays africains". Nantes, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996NANT4007.
Testo completoThe west african countries, in their shipping relations with the european community are now stranded. It is therefore absolutely necessary to elaborate a new maritime politics. During the independence, the african countries thought that a balanced relationship was going to be established, within the framework of the united nations organisation conventions concerning a code of conduct of liner conference. Within roughly twenty years after the independence, the general princips about the code of conduct have shown its weekness, because of the recent changes in the international relations. Following the protests emanating from the developing countries, the united nations conference for trade and development (u. N. C. T. A. D) adopted, in 1974, a code of conduct of liner conferences. One of the essential finalities poursued was to balanced the interest between transporting countries (developed countries) and the loading countries (developing countries). Some of these developing countries have benefitted from this code to ensure the expansion of there commercial fleet. The african countries have not succeeded in doing the same. There are two fundamental reasons why they have failed : these countries have decided to apply the code of conduct in the sphere of regional cooperation, but they have not given themselves any strategical means. They have not respected their engagements, and their institutional organes have not functioned as expected

Testo completoIn the wake of the port reform that took place in Cameroon at the end of the 1990s, the public authorities hoped that the ideal transit times for goods to be imported should be 7 and 2 working days for export in the medium term. In order to take into account the difficulties associated with the experimental phase of the reform during the transitional period, the duty periods considered more or less attainable during which the goods should not be liable to demurrage and / or parking fees, were fixed at short term at 11 and 7 days, respectively for import and export. In the third quarter of 2017, the analysis of the figures presented by CONAFE shows that the average of these delays varies respectively between 16 and 18 days for the importation of the containers and between 16 and 20 days, for the importation of the vehicles. Specifically, 63%, 54% and 57% of containerized import goods paid penalties in the first three quarters of 2017. On one hand, 89%, 84% and 86% and on the other hand, 54, 49 and 67% of the imported vehicles paid the same penalties during the same intervals during their stay at SOCOMAR and TMFD. The situation is almost the same in the ports of the other states of the CEMAC sub-region. Importers of goods in transit face the same difficulties. A comparative study presents more or less laudatory statistics in other sub-regions of the world, notably in Europe. In such a context that is not unique to CEMAC, it is necessary to review the different procedures and measures prescribed for the movement of goods. In addition to the logistical challenge, there are also issues related to legal instruments that are inapplicable or that have shown their limits because of the dissensions recorded during their implementation. Particularly in the CEMAC, the reform of the transport and trade procedures, the legislation as well as the coordination of the various actors of the transport chain are an emergency. It is clear that there is also a real lack of infrastructure and both material and financial means. Added to this are issues of governance, legal predictability, transportation risks, and the need to protect the environment. At the end of the analysis, it emerged that many efforts have been made. The fact remains that the CEMAC States can only genuinely facilitate their trade by taking advantage of international instruments. In addition to the existing texts, certain innovative provisions of the Rotterdam Rules and the Trade Facilitation Agreement must make it possible to solve the problems related to the contractual relations, the deadlines, the costs of passage and the delivery of the goods. No doubt that is what justified the almost servile appropriation of the first text by the Community legislator and the ratification of the second by certain States. But to make the most of these instruments, their adoption and implementation must take into account the economic context of the sub-region. If effective participation in trade is a sign of power, their policy of community ownership or adoption should take into account the sub-regional economic context

Testo completoThe first part of our thesis deals with the physical and human frame of the congolese maritime littoral. The second part stresses on the means and engines of production of the craft fishing and the organisation of the fishing activity toward each port, by insisting on the three principal ports which have been the subject of our survey by questionnaire : pointe-noire, matombi and pointe-indienne. The commercialisation and soncuption of the sea-fish have been analysed in the third part of our thesis. The survey which we have conducted with the consumers of pointe-noire has confirmed the primordial place of the sea-fish in the diet of the congolese people. At last, the fourth part sets up the place of the craft fishing and the exploitation of the congolese halieutic ressources vefore questioning ourselves about the different possibilities of its developing

Testo completoThe purpose of this study is to describe and analyses the technical and social systems of the fishing community of Nazare, to evidence the "markers" that express the specificity of the community and to situate the group of fisher folk in relation to the other inhabitants: the fishermen amongst themselves, but also the fishermen in relation to the land-based community. After collecting data on the formation and development of the fishery, the research went on to analyses work processes at sea and on land, as well as how these systems have developed. The changes that have taken place were analyzed as "responses" to the natural, social and economic constraints the community has had to face. The differences in identity brought to light in the course of this study invariably reflect variations on the social level, studying their repercussions on the economic and social organization of the fishing community revealed these differences to constitute decisive "markers" for this "society". In view of the importance of space in the identification of the individual - space being built by practices and being subject to transformation and modification - an in-depth study of the practices of maritime and terrestrial space -was carried out to reveal the link that binds space and the individual. Tied as they are to an economic system governs by the forces of capitalism, the part played by small-scale producers like these fishermen of Nazare in the economy of the local community is diminishing. Now a minority in the local community, the fishermen of Nazare are striving to preserve their identity

Testo completoIn a dissertation level, inshore occupations have been often given little attention compared to the French deep-sea fishing. Therefore, this halieutic life and activities research of littlefishermen community in Port-en-Bessin, could be inscribed in a air short historiography ofoutports wet fishery craft. Nevertheless, traditional port fishing, asserts itself during thesecond part of 19th century simultaneously to the great ports industrial fisheries. This up untilthen subsistence activity moves to a commercial level.The research and analysis leaded to this dissertation, enable to understand, how this littleNormand haven provided only with some small boats in 1792, becomes on the cusp of WW2the major port of Caen. Actually in order to keep their occupation longevity and despite thefinancial, environmental and political hazards, the seafarer community has managed to getused to them by taking on technical and social changes, unlike nearby fishing stations.Moreover, this study outlines a seafarers category, the skipper ship-owners. They seemparticularly prone to accept innovation leading the whole of the community to the halieuticfinancial success of small ports, whilst keeping the activity’s essentials such as the “sharedwage”system. Lastly, regardless of the era and long way from the miserabilism often evoked,Port-en-Bessin fishermen made good use of the most difficult circumstances in order to keeptheir “material comfort” and get even some affluence

Testo completoEfficiency of currently used antibiotics is worldwide decreasing at a worrying rate, while we are faced with new and emerging pathogens. The majority of active natural products are isolated from the Ascomycetes or from the Actinobacteria. Among the 10000 known antibiotics, more than half are produced by bacteria of one single genus, Streptomyces. It is therefore most interesting to search for novel active molecules in yet under explored niches, such as mutualistic microbial symbioses. Lichens are complex organisms harboring bacterial communities on the surface and, more rarely, inside their thalli and present a model to discover new biomolecules. Optimization of extraction conditions of lichens has been developed. Chemical profiling by LC / MS of nine lichens (2 green algae Roccella fuciformis and R. phycopsis and 7 cyanolichens: Lichina confinis, L. pygmaea, Leptogium lichenoides, Synalissa symphorea, Collema auriforme, C. cristatum and C. fuscovirens) were made and compared with a "Molecular network" approach. This has allowed to identify the chemical similarity between all cyanolichens and between two lichen species containing green algae. On the other hand, further chemical study on R. fuciformis and R. phycopsis was conducted and ten different compounds were isolated. Nine of them have been isolated and identified by NMR and mass fragmentation pathways have been highlighted for five of them. In situ localization of their major respective metabolites (erythrin and roccellic acid for R. phycopsis and erythrin, lepraric acid and acetylportentol for R. fuciformis) was performed and showed a specific location in the lichen thallus. We focused also on the cultivable bacterial communities associated to three lichens from Brittany coast (France) (Roccella fuciformis, Lichina confinis, L. pygmaea) and one inland lichen from Austria (Collema auriforme) to find new secondary metabolites of interest. The abundance and the diversity of the bacterial communities associated to these lichens were showed: 247 strains were isolated and identified by 16S rRNA gene analysis. More than 30% of all strains express potential bioactive compounds and 12% represent probably new species. The secondary metabolites patterns of their cultivable associated bacteria were studied (MOLA1488, Streptomyces sp. and MOLA1416, Hoeflea sp.) and some active secondary metabolites were isolated (e.g. dicetopiperazines, pyrrole alkaloïds, phenoxazine derivatives …) showing biological properties. Finally, to highlight potential interactions between lichens and their associated bacteria, an approach of culture (lichen extracts and bacteria) was performed from 4 most abundant bacterial strains associated with Roccella fuciformis to (1) assess the impact of major metabolites (compounds 4) of this lichen on the growth of these four strains by a an optimized method of viability using MTT; and also to evaluate (2) the ability to bioconversion of these four strains of lepraric acid and erythrin. These bacteria have shown the ability to metabolize erythrin in orsellinic acid, but none of the four tested metabolites has affected their growth

Testo completoFrom the 10th to the 15th century, the city of Rouen is a powerful religious center. Seat of the archbishopric, it is home to nearly fifteen religious communities and includes thirty-six parish churches in the late Middle Ages. During the 10th century, these religious communities, who follow a rule, need to integrate an urban space already shaped by the numerous interactions between society and its environment. The integration of a monastic or conventual complex needs to reckon with the other components of the city, such as road networks, residential areas or power centers. Taking the different building blocks of the urban space into account is not the only factor determining the settlement of communities: the chosen area also depends on the observance of the community and the support of influential benefactors. The building of a monastic or conventual complex at the heart of the urban fabric is a relatively long process that requires acquiring and transforming several plots of land. Subsequently, the religious community shapes its environment in the long term whether by successive enlargements or by modifying its surroundings. This enclosure blocks part of the urban space and establishes itself firmly in the city’s parcel plan. Lastly, the communities act – or interact – all over the urban space: on the one hand through their role in the formation of the parish network and on the other hand through the creation of specific urban sectors or their land holdings. These different aspects of the impact of religious communities in the city of Rouen have been studied thanks to a textual database and a geographical information system allowing work at different scales of time and space

Testo completoGabon enjoys a 800 km long coastline with two major maritime ports : Owendo and Por-Gentil. These ports play a strategic role on the economy of the country handling nearly 90% of the trade exchanges. However, as many ports of the African continent, the main ports of Gabon do not ensure the transit of goods so efficiently as required. Political and structural reasons but also many kinds of failure imply goods flow to decrease, and put a significant burden on business. It makes Gabon less competitive in the CEMAC logistics market than other ports like Douala in Cameroun. Moreover, ports require not only adequate infrastructure and equipment, but also good communications and information technology systems, with competitive and skilled management teams with a motivated and trained workforce. The lack of connectivity between information systems of the main actors of the ports and between ports them selves, do not eliminate the need for long and tedious paperwork. Ports require shared information systems like extranet and structured data exchange systems to ensure the integrity, availability and liability of information. How to optimize transport logistics of commercial ports of Gabon whereas the political, social and economic situation of the country is not favourable ? How to enourage and develop incentives for interconnected network information systems, for new groupware based working practices between economic actors of the ports ? How to increase the fluidity of communications ? This research work is based both on conceptual developments and numerous examples extracted from working practises in the ports of Gabon and of the CEMAC area. We hope to contribute to the improvement of the information management process of the maritime portuary community

Testo completoThis creation/thesis revolves around a medium-length film – I Can Swim Home (I Can Swim Home), questioning the renewal of forms and the artist’s practice in a context of global crisis (environmental crises, health crisis, economical, political and institutional crisis.) What leads may art provide toward envisioning a communal horizon? How may art, through research and experimentation, contribute to invent tools and practical alternatives allowing us to renew our modes of exchanging, sharing, attention, and imagining? This research doesnot aim to make an inventory of forms throughout art history, but to underline what, in the patterns encountered therein, might reveal the artist’s desire to invoke the collective, and to invoke commonality as the nature of the work itself. I C S H aims to go back to one of art’s primary truth: the “inauguration” of an open community, relying upon both the ecological concern of the artist and their adhesion to an ethics of care. The work of the artist will therefore oscillate between the negative pole of the crisis of production/reproduction in the era of the Anthropocene, and the positive pole of a quest for an identity through the plurality of their environmental and social inscriptions. In line with this theoretical stance, through the multiplicity of practices it implements, I C S H constitutes an experiment in investigating “reconnection” (between the artist and the art world, between art and the living), situated in two Mediterranean sites, the Villa Arson and the Lerins Islands.I Can Swim Home is a multiform comprehensive work including a fictional film, a number of collective moments of intensification of the aesthetical experience, a research notebook documenting the artist’s intuitions and questioning, and a critical analysis of the artist’s practice, inviting entities and individuals to partake into the aesthetic invention

Testo completoIf, for Hennebont, 1660s and 1780s were marked by an erosion of the maritime business, this form of decline is part of a much broader phenomenon of gradual decommissioning of the small ports of estuary background; in this case it is for the benefit of the new neighbour Lorient. However it, appearing first as a new competitor, can also be a source of opportunities, providing work for local labor and new market opportunities, with the capture of some of the products traditionally exported (wood, food...). On the other hand, there’s also new links between East India Company and local craftsmen (provision of nails or utensils in Tin, for example). Hennebontais traders know also seize new opportunities that offers them trade overseas; If they keep the hand on their traditional activities, the company becomes a new interlocutor that it is interesting to satisfy and which offers lucrative investment opportunities. Taking in charge the destiny of city, traders transformed the city council to their advantage, they launch a policy of major works, allowing the port to become a more effective tool and take a new look on the City. Opening to the world and the influence of the nearby town also have an impact on the daily life of the population through consumption of new products, the trades, the movement of ideas including care, promoting the presence of minorities
Kolb, Virginia. "Analyse géographique des inégalités environnementales et écologiques en milieu littoral urbain". Thesis, La Rochelle, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015LAROS025/document.
Testo completoSustainable development is a major issue in planning policies. Reducing inequalities affecting inhabitants in their connection to a healthy environment is an important element to take into account in sustainable planning. Indeed, such inequalities may undermine the sustainability of territories. The aim of this research is to identify and characterize environmental and ecological inequalities in the context of urban coastal areas through a systemic analysis of the relations between population and their territory. A quantitative and qualitative approach was conducted on midsize French urban communities at different levels (national, coastal, municipal and infra-municipal). This work allowed to discuss the concept of environmental and ecological inequalities, to establish criteria and indicators to measure and analyze how environmental and ecological inequalities are perceived and addressed by local actors (inhabitants and local representatives). The coast can be seen as a vector of environmental and ecological inequalities, with heterogeneities depending on what territories are considered. Indicators of territorial quality developed at the infra-municipal level allowed to objectify and understand the interrelation between environmental and ecological inequalities. The analysis of interviews conducted on working population helped understanding how those inequalities are perceived and how local solutions in urban planning may be elaborated. Finally, semi-structured interviews with local representatives have introduced a political vision of the territory and of its future structural changes in the context of the establishment of a Local Intermunicipal Urbanism Plan

Testo completoFor eruptive bark beetles (Curculionidae: Scolytinae), the processes affecting the intensity and duration of outbreaks are generally poorly known. We have investigated three factors that may affect the population dynamics of Ips sexdentatus (Börner), namely the intraspecific competition, the natural enemies and the temperature. Colonization densities and the critical threshold of attack densities on trees have been estimated during an outbreak. How such densities affected the productivity and fitness of the beetles has been evaluated under laboratory conditions. The insect community associated with the bark beetle has been characterized in pine stands exhibiting different damage levels. To assess the thermal effects, the insects have been reared at different temperatures. Colonization densities on trees, or equivalent to the critical threshold of attacks, dramatically affected both the productivity and fitness of I. sexdentatus. The associated fauna was loosely related to the population levels of the bark beetle, although the duration of the exposure to the natural enemies affected its productivity. The assessment of thermal requirements allowed calculating that an average warming of 1°C during the activity period would increase the population levels and number of generations per year, but also decrease the beetles’ fitness. Intraspecific competition is probably a critical regulating factor for I. sexdentatus, while natural enemies would rather play a secondary role. A temperature increase could aggravate the outbreaks, but this could be counterbalanced by a fitness reduction and an increase of intraspecific competition
