Our analysis is concerned with the impact of a regionalisation of unemployment insurance (UI) on workers’ preferences, on firms’ profits, and on effciency. The existence and the extent of UI are endogenously derived by maximising an objective function of the state. Three different types of regionalisation are considered which differ with respect to the area the UI objective function is related to, and with respect to the policy variable used to maximise it. It comes to light that workers are always in favour of central UI, while it depends on the type of regionalisation whether or not firms are better off with regional or with central UI. The same somewhat surprising result applies for efficiency.

Since the 1990s, a regional tier of governance has emerged in England, in a country which historically has not been noted for its regional identities. The vying for European Union (EU) structural funds has been seen as a key factor in the mobilisation of regions across Europe. It is within the context of UK membership of the EU, and the effects of the Europeanisation processes, that some scholars have placed the appearance of English regions. Other scholars have sought to explain the growth of English regional governance principally in terms of a response to globalisation. New Regionalism offers an insight into the renewed interest in regions as the focus for economic governance in an increasingly globalised world. With its emphasis on clusters, skills and innovation as a way to promote a competitive advantage, links have been made with New Labour’s economic agenda. Economic rescaling, on the other hand, has been seen to offer a more nuanced understanding of the relationship between the state and the regions. On this view, the state is actively rescaling economic governance in response to the pressures of globalisation, but at the same time still retains its traditional authority. The emergence of governance more generally has also been cited as a factor in English regionalisation. The extent to which the state is being “hollowed out” is a feature of this debate. Again, links have been made specifically to New Labour’s agenda that included plans for devolution for Scotland and Wales and plans for elected regional assemblies in England. This thesis examines the East of England and the South West English regions within the context of these debates. The central argument is that regionalisation in England is a centrally orchestrated process by central government as the nature of governance, but not the state, changes.

In the first part, i have examined, firstly administration's forms of local affairs during precolonial and colonial period and actuel decentralization's level. Secondly, i have studied the question regarding to regional imbalances, treating successively their causes and consequences and fruitless attempts by state to reduce them, in the second part, i have analysed the question of reforms necessary to be engaged in the local and regional level in order to acced to harmonious institutions. Concerning the question of political reforms, i have suggested some propositions for renforcing sub-regional communities and activation of political and economic participation in the regional level. Regarding administrative and human reforms, i have studied the powers which should be tansfered to the regions, the questions of human and material possibilities attributed to the region and finally the cooperation needed to be established between the whole actors capable of facilitating territorial development

This is a study of the discourses of regionalisation and rural development in England. The thesis examines the impact of New Labour's period of regionalisation from 1997 to 2008 on the policy and practice of rural development. A Foucauldian inspired discourse analysis reveals the patterns of power relations between national, regional and local actors, networks and governance structures, contributing to our understanding of political change. Regionalisation has resulted in changes both to rural policy and the practices of governing. Previous studies have emphasised the contrast between the rhetoric of devolution and the extent to which the state retains control by extending its power to the devolved scale. A framework of four discourses combines these contrasting notions to form four discourses of the region – 'participatory development', 'administrative regionalism', 'participatory regionalism' and 'regional autonomy'. Non-government actors express their choices, captured in three discourses of response – 'buying into regionalism', 'reluctant regionalism' and 'local autonomy' – highlighting the complexity of regional/local power relations. The discourses illustrate regional difference and shed light on how and why divergence has taken place. The research was conducted through documentary analysis, and interviews in two case study regions of the North West and East of England. The discourses are drawn from the language of rural actors in each region. Employment as a rural development practitioner gave the researcher 'insider' knowledge and understanding, whilst the discipline of an academic and reflexive approach aided an 'outsider' view, with both identities contributing to the research. The research found some differences between English regions and between regional government agencies, as a consequence of devolution. Nevertheless, the discursive practices centre on realising state plans. Furthermore, regionalisation restricts the choices available to the local level, compromising capacity building and participation in rural development, long recognised by researchers as critical aspects of successful rural development. Local plans were formulated on the basis of a generic, homogenous territory, marking a fundamental change from previous territorial rural programmes.

From a position of relative isolation, trade unions have begun to emerge as influential agents in regional and devolved governance and development in the UK. Drawing on comparative analysis of the experience of the Trades Union Congress (TUC) in North East England, North West England and Wales, this thesis argues that devolution and regionalisation are exerting pressures on peak union bodies and individual unions to adopt multi-level approaches to organisation across a range of scales - local, sub-regional, regional, sub-national, national and international - in order to connect with structures and inter-connectiveness of multi-level governance. A strategic relational approach to multi-level organisation hints at the decentralisation of power, authority and resources within the labour movement - challenging the I}ational and centralised legacy of British trade union collective bargaining history. Multi-level organisation also requires sufficient institutional capacity within and across different scales, an awareness of the contingency of place and the role played by peak union bodies, coupled with an understanding of the structures required to engender greater participation, accountability, transparency and the delivery of meaningful interventions. Where these variables appear to exist, it is possible to detect a tentative link between the participation of organised labour in devolved and regional governance and strategies seeking to deliver trade union renewal. Devolved and regional governance in the UK has presented a critical juncture to begin re-shaping existing, and open up new, channels of engagement and influence for the TUC, which is, to a degree, reproducing many of the central issues of class logics of collective action for labour in the workplace and within the wider political economy. Key words: TUC, trade unions, regions, devolution, scale and multi-level governance

This thesis provides a case study analysis of regionalisation in the wider Black Sea area as a contribution to the study of regionalism. Taking 1992 as the starting point, interviews, official documents and personal observation are used to analyse the integrative processes by focusing on the areas of regional security, institutionalisation, intraregional trade and the role of the EU. Confrontation and cooperation are inter-related, and security imperatives and the lack of a sense of (security) community affect the efficiency level of the regional institutions and prevent increased regional cooperation. Nevertheless, the EU has enhanced a sense of community in the wider Black Sea area (WBSA) although mainly in the western part of it. Previous studies on regionalism have mostly dealt with regionalisms among allies or countries that seem to genuinely interact as partner countries, rather than examining the regionalist project of a group of states including adversaries with political-military problems between themselves. This thesis is thus original in focusing on a strange phenomenon that cooperation is going on at the same time as tension and conflict between states. A further sign of complexity is that many of the instances of cooperation such as economic are going on outside the remit of the regional organisations which have been established – such as the Black Sea Economic Cooperation. As this regional arrangement resembles an example of regional integration but cannot easily be analysed by the customary approaches of regionalism, the idea of ‘complex regionalism’ is proposed to denote the complex interplay among the participating actors in the WBSA. The summary contribution is to show that it is still possible to have regionalisation of states where some of them simultaneously engage in conflicts with each other, although this is likely to stunt the process and the extent of regional integration.

During the last decades a stronger role for the regions has developed in many West European countries. To a significant degree this regionalisation trend has coincided with European integration. The key change in the role of the regional level has been with regard to its status as an agent of regional development. In most West European countries there has been a shift from an approach to regional policy that has focused on redistributive measures from the centre in which the regions play a relatively weak role to a perspective that is sometimes labelled “new regionalism” in which the focus is on the region taking responsibility for its own development. In this new regionalist perspective, which is both descriptive and normative, the region is considered as the appropriate arena for both economic activities and decision-making. In the political systems of the Nordic countries the regional level has traditionally been in a relatively weak position and regional policy has emphasized centralisation and redistributive measures. Not unexpectedly, the pan-European trend toward a stronger role for the region has also found its way to the Nordic countries. The aim of this study is to describe and analyze if and to what extent key actors in three peripheral regions, situated in countries with a strong tradition of redistribution from the centre and a weak role for the regional level, have embraced the new regionalist perspective. The three regions are Troms in Norway, Pohjois-Pohjanmaa in Finland and Västerbotten in Sweden. All are peripherally located with small populations and economies that rely heavily on natural resources. The analysis is based on interviews with regional and local politicians, civil servants, and business representatives. The empirical material is presented in the form of narratives formulated by the regional actors who express their views on regional policy and the role of the region. The results of the study show that regional actors in the three peripheries express similar narratives. To a certain degree actors have embraced the new regionalist perspective in the sense that they see the regional level as an important coordinator for development initiatives and measures. However, the actors’ claims for a stronger regional level must be understood in the context of the unitary state. In this context, the actors’ perspective combines the new regionalist and the centralist redistributive approach, one that can be labelled ‘redistributive regionalism’. The state remains the key actor and is expected to guarantee equal conditions in all parts of the country. The emphasis on strengthening the administrative region is more pronounced in Troms and Västerbotten than in Pohjois-Pohjanmaa, where instead there is a stronger focus on the functional region. Actors in the three regions do not see any contradiction between a strong state and increased regional influence on development issues. In sum, the study finds that the new regionalist perspective has been embraced to a certain extent but that it has been adapted to national characteristics, as well as to the specific conditions in the three regions.

Chez les mammiferes, les spermatozoides acquierent leur mobilite et leur pouvoir fecondant au cours de leur passage dans l'epididyme, long tubule reliant les testicules aux canaux deferents. L'objet de cette these etait de determiner chez le verrat l'activite secretrice des cellules epitheliales le long de l'epididyme et sa regulation. Les proteines sont secretees par l'epididyme de facon regionalisee. Trois sont specifiques de la tete anterieure : le train a (compose non-identifiee), la glutathionperoxidase et l'hexosaminidase. Dans la tete distale, le compose majeur est la clusterine ; des secretions plus faibles de procathepsine, de lactoferrine, et du train o ont ete revelees. Le corps proximal est caracterise par : la mannosidase, une proteine liant l'acide retinoique et le train e. Deux trains majeurs, h et m, apparaissent dans le corps distal, mais aucun compose n'est specifique de la region caudale. Une cartographie contenant l'ensemble des proteines secretees par l'epididyme a ete realisee a l'aide d'un analyseur d'images. Ces secretions apparaissent lors du developpement postnatal depuis la region distale vers la region proximale. Plusieurs mecanismes sont impliques dans le maintien de cette regionalisation chez l'adulte : le taux de testosterone et l'action de facteurs provenant du testicule ou de l'epididyme. Ainsi, le train a semble regule par des facteurs testiculaires, comme 50% des proteines specifiques de la tete proximale. La glutathion-peroxidase, l'hexosaminidase, la mannosidase, la lactoferrine et le train o sont stimules differemment par la testosterone. Inversement, les androgenes repriment la clusterine. La secretion des trains h et m dans le corps semble influencee par des facteurs epididymaires. La regulation des secretions epididymaires est multi-factorielle, dependant du niveau de testosterone le long de l'epididyme et de l'action de facteurs testiculaires et epididymaires. Ceci permet une regulation locale conduisant a la production d'un fluide specifique de chaque region epididymaire qui est necessaire a la maturation des spermatozoides.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Over the past few decades, the impacts of the current wave of globalisation and regionalisation on the livelihoods of informal cross-border traders have increasingly attracted scholarly interest. One of the main areas of focus is on contradictions in state policies, which are supposed to facilitate cross-border flows but have instead proved obstructive, especially to unregistered trade. However, of interest to this research is that significant numbers of the traders continue to survive even though they are seen as victims. This study is based on the premise that ethnographic research is required for a more nuanced analysis. Exploration of small-scale informal cross-border trade has revealed that although taking different forms, borders are still there and continue to benefit the better-off. At the same time, despite being marginalised, the poor continue to survive. Interestingly, it is the existence of said borders that provides the small traders with arbitrage opportunities. This research questions how the traders utilise social networks to negotiate changes in state policies and actions. While several studies acknowledge the benefits of social networks, very few, especially in Southeast Asia, have put them at the centre of studies. Ethnographic details are particularly rare. Social networks are at the heart of this study and have proved to be very important livelihood strategies of the traders. Based upon a total of nine months of ethnographic fieldwork at a border crossing between Thailand and Lao PDR and an extended field visit to several sites in Vietnam, the research shows that social networks involving kin and non-kin actors, which are established, sustained, and strengthened through daily interactions, are vital, especially under changing border landscapes. Social networks empower the traders not only to bridge the two sides of the increasingly regulated border, but also to deal with emerging risks and constraints resulting from national and global changes.

The present research work focuses on the regionalisation of rainfall-runoff model parameters, fundamental for the implementation of hydrological models in ungauged basins and needed to reproduce the actual sequence of river discharge in time. Regionalisation of parameters is based on the transfer of information from hydrologically similar gauged basins to ungauged basins. This work provides further insights on parameter regionalisation and catchment similarity through the application of innovative methodologies to support the existing knowledge.
The first experiment develops a methodology to test the robustness of regionalisation procedures to the availability of data in the study region. In particular, the effect of the density of streamflow gauging stations and the topological relationships between their corresponding drainage basins on the different regionalisation techniques is investigated. Such work provides useful information for the choice of the most appropriate method, based on data availability in the region.
The focus is then moved to the value of hydrological similarity at sub-basin scale. Driven by the fact that similarity is generally defined between entire catchments, neglecting some significant differences in the within-basin rainfall-runoff transformation processes, a methodology to differentiate hydrological processes at sub-basin scale and to transfer model parameters from similar sub-basins is proposed. The analysis is based on the diversification of the parameter values, and therefore of the corresponding hydrological dynamics, across elevation, one of the main factors influencing the runoff generation processes.
Finally, an innovative catchment signature is proposed for improving our knowledge about hydrological similarity, meant for the delineation of hydrologically similar regions. A new methodology for identifying the dominant rainfall-runoff transformation dynamics is presented: the interaction between the entire time-series of runoff generation forcings and runoff itself is quantified taking advantage of the concepts of the Information Theory and used to characterise catchments with promising results.

Water is essential for human well-being and healthy ecosystems, but population growth and changes in climate and land-use are putting increased stress on water resources in many regions. To ensure water security, knowledge about the spatiotemporal distribution of these resources is of great importance. However, estimates of global water resources are constrained by limitations in availability and quality of data. This thesis explores the quality of both observational and modelled data, gives an overview of models used for large-scale hydrological modelling, and explores the possibilities to deal with the scarcity of data by prediction of flow-duration curves. The evaluation of the quality of observational data for large-scale hydrological modelling was based on both hydrographic data, and model forcing and evaluation data for basins worldwide. The results showed that a GIS polygon dataset outperformed all gridded hydrographic products analysed in terms of representation of basin areas. Through a screening methodology based on the long-term water-balance equation it was shown that as many as 8–43% of the basins analysed displayed inconsistencies between forcing (precipitation and potential evaporation) and evaluation (discharge) data depending on how datasets were combined. These data could prove disinformative in hydrological model inference and analysis. The quality of key hydrological variables from a numerical weather prediction model was assessed by benchmarking against observational datasets and by analysis of the internal land-surface water budgets of several different model setups. Long-term imbalances were found between precipitation and evaporation on the global scale and between precipitation, evaporation and runoff on both cell and basin scales. These imbalances were mainly attributed to the data assimilation system in which soil moisture is used as a nudge factor to improve weather forecasts. Regionalisation, i.e. transfer of information from data-rich areas to data-sparse areas, is a necessity in hydrology because of a lack of observed data in many areas. In this thesis, the possibility to predict flow-duration curves in ungauged basins was explored by testing several different methodologies including machine learning. The results were mixed, with some well predicted curves, but many predicted curves exhibited large biases and several methods resulted in unrealistic curves.Vatten är en förutsättning för människors och ekosystems hälsa, men befolkningsökning och förändringar av klimat och markanvändning förväntas öka trycket på vattenresurserna i många regioner i världen. För att kunna säkerställa en god tillgång till vatten krävs kunskap om hur dessa resurser varierar i tid och rum. Tillförlitligheten hos skattningar av globala vattenresurser begränsas dock både av begränsad tillgänglighet av och kvalitet hos observerade data. Denna avhandling utforskar kvaliteten av såväl observations- som modellbaserade data, ger en överblick över modeller som används för storskalig hydrologisk modellering och utforskar möjligheterna att förutsäga varaktighetskurvor som ett sätt att hantera bristen på data i många områden. Utvärderingen av observationsbaserade datas kvalitet baserades på hydrografiska data och driv- och utvärderingsdata för storskaliga hydrologiska modeller. Resultaten visade att en uppsättning data över hydrografin baserad på GIS-polygoner representerade avrinningsområdesareorna bättre än alla de som byggde på rutor. En metod baserad på långtidsvattenbalansen identifierade att kombinationen av drivdata (nederbörd och potentiell avdunstning) och utvärderingsdata (vattenföring) var fysiskt orimlig för så många som 8–43 % av de analyserade avrinningsområdena beroende på hur olika datauppsättningar kombinerades. Sådana data kan vara desinformativa för slutsatser som dras av resultat från hydrologiska modeller och analyser. Kvaliteten hos hydrologiskt viktiga variabler från en numerisk väderprognosmodell utvärderades dels genom jämförelser med observationsdata och dels genom analys av landytans vattenbudget för ett flertal olika modellvarianter. Resultaten visade obalanser mellan långtidsvärden av nederbörd och avdunstning i global skala och mellan långtidsvärden av nederbörd, avdunstning och avrinning i både modellrute- och avrinningsområdesskala. Dessa obalanser skulle till stor del kunna förklaras av den data assimilering som görs, i vilken markvattenlagret används som en justeringsfaktor för att förbättra väderprognoserna. Regionalisering, som innebär en överföring av information från områden med god tillgång på mätdata till områden med otillräcklig tillgång, är i många fall nödvändig för hydrologisk analys på grund av att mätdata saknas i många områden. I denna avhandling utforskades möjligheten att förutsäga varaktighetskurvor för avrinningsområden utan vattenföringsdata genom flera metoder inklusive maskininlärning. Resultaten var blandade med en del kurvor som förutsas väl, och andra kurvor som visade stora systematiska avvikelser. Flera metoder resulterade i orealistiska kurvor (ickemonotona eller med negativa värden).

Caballero, José. "Revisiting regional integration theory : the state and normative elites in Central American regionalisation". Thesis, University of Warwick, 2009. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/2744/.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
The thesis develops a Central Americanised model of regional integration by building on neofunctionalist concepts through the use of a constructivist approach. Distortions, strategic modification and stagnation phases of integration in that region are conventionally attributed, often implicitly, to the “unwillingness” of the governments. The problem with this approach, however, is that it neglects the role of what I identify as Normative Elites in the process. In order to overcome this limitation, the thesis formulates the concept of Social Will, conceptualised as the interplay of the ideas, identity and interest of the Central American normative elites—and it refers to the predisposition or disinclination of these elites to support the integration process. The formulation of social will leads the analysis to re-conceptualise the interaction between the state and normative elites. This reconsideration necessitates the elaboration of modified models of socialisation and norm diffusion—which I label Ideational Drive and Circumscribed-Statist respectively—to reflect certain Central American specificities. Empirically, the thesis assesses the existence and role of both political will and social will in Central America by using discourse analysis of a series of interviews and detailed readings of published position documents. Regarding political will, it identifies a latent integrative strategy and a significant ideational convergence among the participants in the study. It concludes that indeed in that region there is a fair degree of political will. This conclusion is partially supported by the uncovering of Constitutional Regionalism, or the constitutional bestowals of special citizenship status on nationals of other Central American countries, and the inclusion of specific constitutional provisions conducive to integration. The thesis contemplates the existence of social will at two points: the reactivation of the Central American integration process during the 1990s, and in the 2005-08 period. In the first instance, the thesis identifies the leading role that normative elites, through economic groups, played in the reactivation of the process. In that sense, it argues that at that time there existed a degree of social will. In the second instance, the thesis identifies discursive differences among normative elites. One discourse conceives of the region from a Central Americanist view striving for the development of the region and crucially, its people. The other discourse is Instrumentalist aiming at improving the region’s competitive positioning in the global economy. This ideational incongruence signals a limited degree of social will. The thesis concludes by arguing that partial social will delimits and imposes meaning on the spaces wherein the political will could thrive. Hence the process experiences distortions, strategic modifications and stagnant phases.

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2015.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study analyses regionalism in Africa from a theoretical and an applied perspective. The purpose of the study is to contribute to the critical and reflectivist corpus of theories of regionalism. This field is dominated by rationalist theories that are largely preoccupied with formal inter-‐state and market-‐driven processes of regional integration. The rationalist theoretical hegemony in academia and politics serves to reinforce and reproduce neoliberal ideology informing global political economic practices. This study illustrates the limitations and normative assumptions of these orthodox frames and demonstrates the multidimensionality of regionalisation. The study applies a combination of three critical reflectivist theories: the World Order Approach, the New Regionalism Approach and the New Regionalisms Approach/Weave-‐ world in an analysis of an ongoing regional oil and infrastructure project in East Africa called the Lamu Port, South Sudan and Ethiopia (LAPSSET) Corridor. The study’s primary research question investigates the extent to which oil production is driving the manifestation of (new) regionalism in East Africa, especially in terms of the LAPSSET Corridor, with secondary questions identifying the actors involved in this regionalisation, and what the theoretical framework reveals about the regionalisation in East Africa. After a review of some of the most influential theoretical contributions to the study of regions a critical reflectivist approach is suggested as an alternative to conventional rationalist theories. A broad historical overview of the East African region is elaborated with a focus on Uganda and Kenya, highlighting the social, cultural, political and economic evolution of the region before reflection on how forces of production relate to regime type in East Africa. Subsequently, a case study establishes an assessment of the historical and social construction of the LAPSSET Corridor. The objectives of the LAPSSET Corridor and its implementation mechanisms are scrutinised and viewed in comparison with its potential for inclusiveness of local participation and sustainable socio-‐economic development. Two important conclusions can be drawn from this study. The first is that oil production is critical in the current regionalisation in East Africa. However, the nature of this regionalisation flows contrary to other regional motives. The second conclusion is that the anti-‐reductionist and critical reflectivist approach is indeed essential to fully understand the variety of multi-‐level factors of structures and agency that influence regionalism and regionalisation in East Africa.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie analiseer regionalisme in Afrika vanaf ‘n teoretiese en ‘n toegepaste perspektief. Die doel van die studie is om by te dra tot die kritiese en reflektiwistiese liggaam van teorie oor regionalisme. Hierdie studieveld word gedomineer deur rasionalistiese teorieë wat meerendeels besig is met formele inter-‐staat en markgedrewe prosesse van regionale integrasie. Die rasionele teoretiese hegemonie in akademia en politiek versterk en herproduseer sodanig neoliberale ideologie wat global politiek-‐ekonomiese praktyk bepaal. Hierdie studie wys die beperkinge en normatiewe aannames van hierdie ortodokse beskouings uit, en ontbloot die multidimensionaliteit van regionalisering. Die studie pas ‘n mengsel van krities-‐reflektivistiese teorieë toe: die Wêreldorde Benadering, die Nuwe Regionalisme Benadering, en die “Verweefde Wêreld” Benadering in ‘n analise van die regionale olie en infrastruktuurprojek in Oos-‐ Afrika wat die “Lamu Port, South Sudan and Ehtiopia” (LAPSSET) Korridor genoem word. Die studie se primêre navorsingsvraag fokus op die mate waartoe olieproduksie die manifestering van (nuwe) regionalisme in Oos-‐Afrika dryf, veral in terme van die LAPSSET Korridor, met sekondêre vrae om die akteurs te identifiseer wat betrokke is by hierdie regionalisering, en wat die teoretiese benadering blootlê aangaande die regionalisering in Oos-‐Afrika. Na ‘n oorsig van die belangrikste teoretiese bydraes tot die studie van streke word ‘n krities-‐reflekiwistiese benadering voorgestel as ‘n alternatief vir konvensionele rasionele teorieë. ‘n Breë historiese oorsig van die Oos-‐Afrika streek word verskaf, met ‘n fokus op Uganda en Kenia, en dit beklemtoon die sosiale, kulturele, politieke en ekonomiese ontwikkeling van die streek voordat ‘n oordenking van hoe die magte van produksie betrekking het op regimetipe in Oos-‐Afrika. Voorts verskaf die gevallestudie ‘n oorsig van die historiese en sosiale daarstel van die LAPSSET Korridor. Die doelwitte van die LAPSSET Korridor en sy implementeringsmeganismes word geëvalueer en beskou in vergelyking met sy potensiaal vir die insluiting van plaaslike deelname en volhoubare sosio-‐ekonomiese ontwikkeling. Die studie maak twee belangrike gevolgtrekkings moontlik. Die eerste is dat olieproduksie krities belangrik is in die huidige regionalisering in Oos-‐Afrika. Maar tog is die aard van die regionaliseringspatrone teenstrydig met ander streeksmotiverings. Die tweede gevolgtreking is dat die teen-‐reduksionistiese en krities-‐reflektiwistiese benaderings wel sentraal staan tot ‘n volle beskouing van die verskeidenheid van veelvlakkige faktore wat regionalisme en regionalisering in Oos-‐Afrika beïnvloed.

Ce travail porte sur l’étude des mécanismes de spécification et d’organisation génétique du cerveau chez la lamproie. Les résultats principaux sont les suivants : (1) l’expression des gènes Lhx et Pax chez l’embryon de lamproie révèle un grand degré de conservation des mécanismes de « patterning » du cerveau entre cyclostomes et gnathostomes. Néanmoins, quelques différences importantes ont été observées, particulièrement au niveau du télencéphale. Ces différences sont probablement corrélées avec les changements majeurs subis par cette région au moment de la transition cyclostome/gnathostome ; (2) l'analyse de l’expression des gènes Lhx et son interprétation montrent que le cerveau antérieur de lamproie présente une organisation prosomérique évidente. Cette organisation est ainsi un caractère propre aux vertébrés ; (3) l'analyse de l'expression du gène LfHh met en évidence une possible origine moléculaire de cette organisation neuromérique du cerveau ; (4) en outre, l'expression d’au moins un de ces gènes Lhx persiste tout au long de la période larvaire (non-embryonnaire), ce qui montre l’utilité de ces gènes comme marqueurs pour suivre le développement et la morphogénèse du cerveau au cours du temps. Nous avons ensuite criblé une librairie d'ADN génomique de lamproie, visant à identifier des cosmides contenant le gène Hh. Les résultats mettent en évidence la possibilité de l'existence de deux gènes Hedgehog chez la lamproie. Ces résultats ouvrent une nouvelle vision sur l'évolution de cette famille de gènes chez les chordésThis work was focused on the study of the genetic specification and organisation of the developing lamprey brain. By RT-PCR cloning and in situ hybridisation we were able to isolate and study the expression pattern of genes from the LIM-homeobox (Lhx), Pax and Hedgehog families in the embryonic lamprey brain. The main results are as follows: (1) Lhx and Pax genes reveal strikingly similar forebrain and hindbrain patterning between agnathans and gnathostomes. Some important differences are nevertheless observed, especially at the level of the telencephalon, a region where major changes took place at the cyclostome/gnathostome transition; (2) Expression analysis of Lhx genes and its interpretation shows that the lamprey forebrain presents a clear prosomeric organisation, which is thus a truly vertebrate character; (3) Analysis of the LfHh gene expression reveals the possible molecular origin of this neuromeric brain pattern; (4) Finally, Lhx gene expression persists through the larval (non-embryonic) period, making these genes useful markers to follow brain development and morphogenesis. We have screened a cosmid genomic DNA library aiming at identifying cosmids containing the Hh gene. The results raise the possibility of the existence of two Hedgehog genes in lamprey. A preliminary phylogenetic analysis suggests an independent duplication of the lamprey Hedgehog genes within the Sonic/Indian group. These findings open a new vision on the evolution of this gene family within chordates.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This thesis presents an analysis of the role of intermodal transport in Notteboom and Rodrigue's (2005) port regionalisation concept, an approach to port development that focuses on the inland aspects of the process, as well as taking port development models from a spatial focus to a focus on institutions. It is argued that the port regionalisation concept is insufficiently disaggregated; it does not identify or classify different processes within the concept, nor does it explain how they operate or who drives them. In this thesis, the port regionalisation concept is broken down into its three constituent parts: inland terminals, market and logistics and the resolution of collective action problems. Each of these is examined in its own chapter, based on a case study methodology. The methodology was chosen for its ability to provide rich detail and build or extend theory, as the overall aim of this thesis is to critique the port regionalisation concept and extend its explanatory power. Part one follows a multiplecase design, analysing numerous European inland terminal developments in order to improve inland terminal classifications that can then contribute to the port regionalisation concept. Parts two and three each utilise a single case design, taking a single case in depth in order to explore in rich detail how these issues play out in industry. Part two studies the role of large retailers as the primary drivers of intermodal transport in the UK, while part three examines the development of an intermodal corridor in the United States, offering the opportunity to study a collective action problem in detail Part one reveals that port actors, both port authorities and port terminal operators, can be directly involved in the development of inland terminals, and that differences can be observed between terminals developed by port actors and those developed by inland actors. A conceptual distinction is proposed to capture this observation. Part two identifies barriers to port regionalisation, such as operational issues, spatial development decisions and a lack of integration between inland market players. Part three demonstrates the difficulties faced by public bodies attempting to direct regionalisation strategies, constrained by legitimacy and agency conflicts and an institutional structure that limits their effectiveness. An added contribution to the literature is the theoretical framework that is developed for the analysis of the institutional factors at play in resolving a collective action problem. While additional cases are required to advance the concept further, the cases in this thesis elucidate reasons why ports may not be controlling or capturing hinterlands through the strategies of integration that the port regionalisation concept suggests. It may be more accurate to state that regionalisation can only occur as long as a set of favourable commercial and institutional conditions are maintained. The findings from the cases presented in this thesis suggest that it is not easy to maintain such conditions, implying that regionalisation may be the exception rather than the norm.

Le cœur des vertébrés se développe à partir du tube cardiaque et de la participation des cellules progénitrices mésodermiques du second champ cardiaque (SHF). Une perturbation de l’addition des cellules du SHF conduit à des malformations cardiaques congénitales (MCC). Chez l’embryon, l’outflow tract (OFT) dérivé du seul SHF est formé par deux domaines complémentaires qui formeront le myocarde sous-aortique et sous-pulmonaire. Ce travail analyse les cellules progénitrices du SHF qui contribuent aux deux domaines de l’OFT pour former la base de l’aorte et du tronc pulmonaire, l’identité transcriptionnelle des domaines et leur régulation. Nous avons mis en évidence une sous-population de cellules progénitrices Notch-dépendantes, situées en région antérieure du mésoderme pharyngé, qui contribue au myocarde sous-aortique. Nous avons démontré que des cascades de régulation croisées impliquant Notch/Hes1 et Tbx1/Pparg sont importantes pour former les deux domaines fonctionnels régionalisés de l’OFT. Des expériences de culture d’explants et d’embryons ont démontré que Pparg est nécessaire au déploiement des cellules du SHF et pour la régulation transcriptionnelle du futur myocarde sous-pulmonaire. Dans le domaine complémentaire, futur myocarde sous-aortique, nous avons observé l’expression de Dlk1, un régulateur négatif de Pparg. Dlk1 est en amont de la voie de régulation Notch et participe probablement à l’identité régionale de l’OFT. Dans son ensemble, ce travail identifie de nouvelles voies de signalisation et gènes qui régulent l'identité régionale du mésoderme cardio-pharyngé et de nouvelles cibles pour l’étude clinique des MCCThe vertebrate heart develops from the heart tube and the contribution of mesodermal progenitors termed second heart field (SHF). Perturbation in SHF addition leads to congenital heart defects (CHD). The outflow tract (OFT) myocardium is entirely derived from the SHF. Distinct regions of the embryonic OFT have been shown to give rise to subaortic and subpulmonary myocardium of the heart. The work described here focuses on SHF progenitor subpopulations in mouse giving rise to distinct OFT domains and characterizes the regional transcriptional identity and regulation of future subaortic and subpulmonary myocardium. We identified Notch-dependent subaortic myocardial SHF progenitors in anterior pharyngeal mesoderm. We demonstrated that Notch/Hes1 and Tbx1/Pparg cross regulatory cascades are important to establish functionally important OFT regional domains. Explant and embryo culture experiments revealed that Pparg is required for both the deployment of SHF cells and transcriptional regulation of the future subpulmonary myocardial domain. We also found that Dlk1, a negative regulator of Pparg, is expressed in the complementary subaortic domain upstream of Notch receptor activation and potentially participates in the establishment of OFT regional identity. We also report an overlapping transcriptional profile between future subaortic myocardium and subpopulation of epicardial cells at fetal stages. Finally, we provide evidence for the existence of conserved bipotential myogenic progenitors in cardiopharyngeal mesoderm coexpressing Nkx2-5 and Tbx1. Overall this work identifies novel pathways and genes in cardiopharyngeal mesoderm that may contribute to clinically relevant CHD

This dissertation is an interdisciplinary project aimed to explore normative and empirical dimensions and underpinnings of a societal transformation towards sustainability and the underlying value shift in developed countries. This study attempted to build a holistic perspective of a value shift towards sustainability by tackling a constellation of approaches from philosophy and ethics, social and political sciences, international relations. The project looked into how a value shift could be a response to climate change and global environmental crisis, what gaps in the existing system of values should be addressed and what values should be developed, how values can be changed at individual and collective levels, what actors can advance the transformation and which tools they can employ. Finally, the project explored how environmental non-governmental organizations can advance sustainability values to the general public and also analyzed climate change campaigns of the WWF and Greenpeace in order to identify which values these organizations promote to the public through their outreach efforts.

The process of the regionalisation of foreign and security policies, its conditions of
emergence and evolution, is the core object of study of this doctoral thesis. This
research has two aims, first it seeks to construct a new framework to understand and
conceptualise regionalisation processes and second, applying this framework to draw
conclusions on the paths these processes take in West Africa and South America.
In this research I take issue with the way in which IR approaches present regional
projects as the ‘natural’ or ‘rational’ response of nation states to a combination of
objective and ideational factors. A more thorough explanation requires an account of the
ways in which these factors are themselves constituted, maintained and shaped by
discourses and power relations between the relevant actors, as well as through the
concrete practices the actors deploy. I thus conceptualise regionalisation as an interplay
between discourses and practices of actors ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ the region.
Methodologically, the analysis uses a poststructuralist discourse analysis and an
interpretative process tracing that relies mainly on ethnographic work.
The key empirical findings of this thesis are twofold. First, historically constituted
discourses are crucial in determining the form and extent of the regionalisation process
– in particular the key articulations linking the concepts of state/nation and region.
Second, the comparison allowed me to demonstrate that regions are not independent
units: they are part of an international system where actors (re)produce discourses
carrying certain norms, concepts and meanings such as ‘security’, ‘development’,
‘regional integration’, etc. It is precisely the encounter between the regional and
‘external’ actors discourses which constitutes the process of regionalisation. The
meaning given to security, in particular, which emerges at the intersection of these
discourses, decisively frames the process towards either cooperation between sovereign
states or the building of a regional political community.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Only two Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries have ratified the International Criminal Court (ICC) Statute, and this number is unlikely to change dramatically in the near future. This research thus considers how international criminal justice (ICrimJ) can be advanced through the regionalisation of international criminal law (ICL), whilst also serving the interests of ASEAN Member States. The theoretical appeal, practical viability, and political acceptability of regional ICrimJ mechanisms are accordingly examined. Given that the establishment of the ICC has challenged the absolute sovereignty of States over the prosecution of international crimes, regional initiatives have added political allure as they not only better reflect local legal norms and political considerations, but also place the selection of ‘regional crimes’ and enforcement measures primarily in the hands of regional countries. In recognition of the 'ASEAN way' of making decisions, regional initiatives to further ICrimJ in Southeast Asia should be implemented gradually and driven internally through consultation and consensus. Moreover, to achieve the overarching ASEAN goal of maintaining regional peace and security, the modalities and practical effects of ICrimJ may require greater emphasis on deterrence and reconciliation, instead of punishment. The prospect and efficacy of a regional ICrimJ mechanism however also depends, inter alia, on the availability of institutional infrastructure and resources, and will understandably differ between regions. Nevertheless, some general conclusions about the value and attractiveness of a regional approach to ICrimJ can be drawn. Despite variations on what may constitute justice in different geographic areas, these generalisations are useful because they reveal the incentives and favourable conditions for efforts at the regional level. The research therefore proffers a basic framework to assess the costs and benefits of regional solutions against domestic or international methods of enforcing ICL, and determine which may best serve ICrimJ in each unique situation and circumstance.

Ce travail de these s'est principalement attache a etudier deux aspects distincts mais interdependants de la differenciation somitique aviaire. Dans un premier temps, l'etablissement de la polarite medio-laterale au sein du somite a ete etudie. La mise en place de cet axe est le resultat des influences antagonistes de la lame laterale lateralement, mediee par le facteur bmp-4, et des structures axiales medialement (pourquie et al. , 1996, en annexe). Une partie de ce travail de these a permis de demontrer que l'activite des voies de signalisation wnt et sonic hedgehog participe a la definition d'un compartiment median en antagonisant l'action lateralisante de bmp-4 ; cet antagonisme est indirect et implique la proteine noggin, un facteur diffusible capable de neutraliser l'activite de bmp-4 (hirsinger et al. , 1997). Une deuxieme partie de cette these concerne la regulation de l'etat de competence tissulaire qui influence la facon dont les cellules repondent aux signaux inducteurs envisages precedemment. Des resultats obtenus au cours de la differenciation de la retine aviaire montrent que la voie de signalisation notch regule l'etat de competence des progeniteurs neuraux par un mecanisme d'inhibition laterale (henrique et al. , 1997). Une premiere serie de resultats suggerent que le signal notch pourrait reguler de la meme maniere l'etat de competence des cellules mesodermiques au cours de la myogenese somitique. En conclusion, ce travail permet d'analyser les interferences entre signaux inducteurs et etat de competence tissulaire dans la realisation d'un programme de differenciation.

The purpose of this study is to – through a discourse analysis – examine how the parliamentary committee – Ansvarskommittén – legitimizes the need for merging administrative regions. The committee’s investigation is what underlies the present debate on regionalisation and the merging of regions in Sweden. To carry out this discourse analysis, I have used “What’s the problem represented to be?”, by Carol Lee Bacchi as an analytical framework. The analytical framework aids the examination on how political parties construct problems through the solutions they propose. After carefully examining the final dictum of Ansvarskommittén, this study concludes that the committe’s investigation legitimizes the merging of regions primarily through three discourses. First, it is being legitimized through Neo-Regionalism which is also a component in the remaining two discourses. The second discourse is Europeanization that is intended to adapt the regions to the regional standards of the European Union. The third discourse is the financial growth discourse and is intended to maintain the financial growth and competitiveness of regions against other regions. Consequently, the regions are given the responsibility of the state’s wealth instead of the state being responsible for the wealth of the regions as seen in traditional welfare states.Syftet med den här studien är att med hjälp av en diskursanalys undersöka hur Ansvarskommittén, genom den parlamentariska utredning som gjorts, legitimerar att Sverige behöver slå samman sina regioner. Det är den här utredningen som ligger som till för den debatt som idag förs vad gäller regionalisering och regionsammanslagningar i Sverige. För att utföra diskursanalysen har studien gjorts med hjälp av Carol Lee Bacchis ”What´s the problem represented to be?”, som grund för min analysmodell. Analysmodellen syftar till att undersöka hur aktörer konstruerar problem genom de lösningar som föreslås. Efter att ha granskat Ansvarskommitténs slutbetänkande noggrant, är min slutsats att utredningen legitimerar regionsammanslagningar genom framförallt tre stycken diskurser. Dels genom nyregionalism som även är övergripande för de andra två diskurserna. De andra diskurserna är europeisering, som syftar till att anpassa de svenska regionerna efter den Europeiska Unionen. Och dels en tillväxtdiskurs som innebär att regionerna ska kunna upprätthålla sin egna tillväxt- och konkurrenskraft mot andra regioner. Det blir således regionerna som ska bygga statens välstånd och inte staten som ska upprätthålla regionernas välstånd på det sättet som välfärdstaten är uppbyggd på.

La tenascine (tn) est une glycoproteine de la matrice extracellulaire (mec). Elle possede des proprietes anti-adhesives et peut moduler les interactions des cellules avec les molecules de la mec. Son expression est tres regionalisee au cours du developpement embryonnaire des vertebres. Ce memoire expose les donnees que nous avons acquises concernant les mecanismes impliques dans la regionalisation de l'expression de la tn au cours des stades initiaux de l'embryogenese de l'amphibien xenopus laevis. La premiere partie de notre etude concerne l'analyse comparee de la distribution tissulaire des transcrits tn et de la proteine dans la mec chez l'embryon. L'expression de la proteine tn et de ses transcrits est regionalisee selon les axes antero-posterieur et dorso-ventral. Leurs distributions sont juxtaposees. Aux stades du bourgeon caudal, la tn est principalement synthetisee par les cellules du mesoderme somitique ainsi que par celles des cretes neurales. La contribution importante du mesoderme somitique a la synthese de tn et l'absence des arnm tn dans le mesoderme lateral et ventral conduisent a etudier l'expression de la tn en reponse aux inducteurs mesodermiques. L'analyse des recombinaisons de blastomeres animaux et vegetatifs, les inductions de la calotte animale ectodermique par l'activine a et le fgfb, ainsi que les injections d'arn xbra et xbmp-4 montrent que l'expression de la tn est obtenue en reponse a la formation de structures mesodermiques dorsales et posterieures. Dans la derniere partie de ce memoire, nous decrivons les resultats relatifs a l'expression ectopique des facteurs myogeniques dans la calotte ectodermique. Nous montrons que la tn est exprimee en reponse a l'injection d'arn xmyod et xmyf5. L'integration de la tn dans la mec peut etre observee en l'absence de differenciation musculaire striee. Nos resultats montrent que la regionalisation de l'expression de la tn chez l'embryon de xenope depend de la realisation du patron mesodermique. Il apparait d'autre part que l'integration de la tn dans la mec en des regions definies de l'embryon de xenope resulte d'un controle au niveau transcriptionnel. Nos resultats suggerent enfin que la synthese de la tn dans les somites pourrait etre regulee par les facteurs myogeniques

L'objet de cette these est d'analyser l'originalite de la relation regionalisation developpement dans le cas particulier de la guadeloupe a partir des concepts de la geographie humaine. En effet, l'espace geographique appele region a ete defini par bernanrd kaiser (1990). Une region est sur la terre un espace mais immuable, inscrit dans un cadre naturel donne, et repondant a trois caracteristiques essentielles les liens existant et son integration fonctionnelle dans une economie globale. Elle est le resultat d'une association des facteurs actifs et passifs d'intensites variables, sont la dynamique propre est a l'origine des equilibres internes et de la projection spaciale. Depuis 1982 la loi de decentralisation faisant suite a la departementalisation a dote la guadeloupe de competences et d'outils visant a promouvoir son developpement. Il faut ajouter les instruments propres a la politique europeenne qui cherchent a mettre en place une politique de rattrapage par rapport aux regions de l'europe. Les ambiguites sont en effet nombreuses. Les interventions economiques autant que sociales n'ont pas encore totalement leves. Du point de vue des infrastructures, des transformations importantes sont intervenues. Mais des facteurs internes et externes se conjuguent pour faire de l'economie une somme d'activites de tres faible importance. La consequence est un tres faible taux d'emploi qui n'arrive pas a endiguer le flot de population a la recherche d'emploiThe aim of this thesis is to analyze the originality of the relation between regionalization and development, in the particular case of guadeloupe, from the human geography concepts. The decentralization laws, following departmentalization, have provided guadeloupe with competences and instruments aiming at promoting its development. To all this, one must add those which are peculiar to the european policy and whose purpose is to set up a policy of making up for any kind of lateness facing the european countries. As a matter of fact, the ambiguities are numerous - social and economic interventions have not been removed yet. As far as infrastructures are concerned, some important transformations intervened. But internal and external factors combine to make out of the economy an amount of activities whose importance is rather weak. As a consequence, this country has a very low job rate which can't wurb the flow of population looking for a job. It development is the greatest ambition of guadeloupe, the relation development/regionalization must be defined in the institutional frame and in the own environnement of guadeloupe.

Rizvi and Lingard (2010) suggest that there have been shifts in the development and institutional implementation of education policies, as the values promoted by national systems of education are not just established by the policy actors within the nation state but forged through transnational and global entities. In current studies, there are a number of reductionist accounts of global effects on education policy which do not take account of historical context. Drawing on the policy sociology literature, this thesis empirically investigates the policy process at University College Dublin when it modularised its undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. It reviews how supranational processes (including European integration and the work of the OECD) and policy making affected UCD's institutional dynamics and policy production during this process. In documenting and analysing the production of this institutional education policy, evidence suggests that policy is shaped predominantly by local policy actors and global influences situated outside of the nation-state. To explore the influence of macro factors on this policy process, UCD provides an outward-focused case study into this policy process at a micro level. Insight into this process is evidenced by collecting data through textual analysis of policy documents and semi-structured interviewing of 23 key policy actors at UCD and other influential policy agencies. To investigate the ‘black box’ by which power is exerted in this policy process, Bourdieu’s theoretical tools are utilised. Bourdieu’s ‘conceptual triad’ is pervasive in the education policy literature, clarifying why some of these policy practices remain national and localised within the global policy field. The study evidences the effects of globalisation manifest in UCD’s modular policy which responded to both internally generated reform and agencies external to the state. The pursuit and implementation of this policy demonstrates the capacity of non-national political structures, e.g. the EUA, OECD, and Bologna Process, to shape not only national policy (Henry et al., 2001) but also institutional governance and policy. The manifestation of these structures also provide confirmation of governance without government (Rosenau, 1992). This study sustains the suggestion of a global policy field (Lingard, et al., 2005) and demonstrates a resultant reconstitution of the local education policy field.

Scholars have proposed and investigated a view of social relations as social networks and therefore the role of public policy in creating new networks and new social and economic relations. Are different incumbent institutional settings a relevant variable to explain different regional policies responses to Regionalization and Europeanization? I will address this question with regard to the regional policy that was initiated in Italy in 1950 and that represented the country’s attempt to improve its economic and geographic cohesion. The hypothesis is that, within a devolution process, different adaptation to regionalization and Europeanization pressures are correlated to “path dependence” from incumbent institutional settings. Specific attention is dedicated to the role of “paradigms” in the processes analysed. This, in turn could generate different devolution outcomes, in terms of discrepancy between formal and effective outcomes. Devolution is analysed in terms of institutional change and policy (regional policy) change. Institutional change is operationalized in terms of changes in polity and administrative variables, and policy change is investigated through variables representing formal (policy issues, i.e. design and responsibility) and effective (financial, i.e. uses and sources) dynamics under the two different pressures for change identified: regionalization and Europeanization of regional policies. The research proposed is pertinent and important in the context of European integration where national policies have been restructured due to, on the one hand, regionalization—i.e., the transfer downward to the sub-national level—of policies formerly handled at the national level and, on the other, “Europeanization” or the transfer of policies upwards to the European level. This thesis investigates the dynamics of the “paradigm and policy shift” that took place within Italian regional policy between 1950 when the policy began and 1992 when the policy was officially terminated due to a dual transfer of the policy upward to the European level with the co-financing of cohesion policy and the transfer downward to the role of the regions as management authorities for the operational programmes that were responsible for the bulk of Italian regional funds.

In the context of regionalism and regionalisation, the notion of a region holds sway. Discussions around the topic of how spatial entities defined as ‘regions’ form, evolve, develop, become institutionalised and sometimes stabilized have been active and profound over the last forty years. Moreover, rich and diverse literature provides different conceptualizations and problematisation of regions that have been changing over time. ‘Heterogeneous relations’ that stretch over boundaries and are not territorially fixed have been accorded an increased attention in the regional studies. This research investigates the region building process in the Alpine region and analyses different agenda-settings pursued by various stakeholders in the Alpine region. The study employs qualitative methods to analyse processes of region building by applying Paasi’s institutionalisation theory. The findings show the regional dynamics in the case under investigation and claims that the Alpine region has being transformed from a closed, bounded, territorially fixed entity to a relational one, based on not territorially fixed heterogeneous relations. This transformation leads from a relatively ‘fixed’ Alpine region (as defined by Alpine Convention) to a more fluid, unbounded and ‘fuzzy’ space – the Alpine macro-region, which is being developing.

Le système nerveux autonome ou viscéral (SNV) contrôle nos fonctions digestives, respiratoires, et cardiovasculaires. Le facteur de transcription à homéodomaine Phox2b est spécifiquement exprimé par les neurones qui le composent et contrôle leur différenciation. Cette extrême spécificité fait de Phox2b un outil puissant pour l’étude de l’histoire évolutive du SNV. Dans ce but, j’ai étudié l’urochordé Ciona intestinalis, dont la vie de l’adulte sessile se résume à filtrer l’eau de mer pour respirer et se nourrir. Mon hypothèse était que son système nerveux devrait donc être en grande partie viscéral. En accord avec cette hypothèse, j’ai montré que la grande majorité des neurones du ganglion cérébral de la cione adulte exprime un code moléculaire (Phox2+, Tbx20+, ChAT+, Mnr2-) spécifique des motoneurones branchiaux et viscéraux des vertébrés et innervent des muscles contractant le sac branchial qui constitue la majeure partie de l’animal. L’homologie entre ces neurones et les neurones branchiomoteurs vertébrés est de plus confortée par leur origine développementale. Le ganglion dérive de la région du « cou » Hox1+/Phox2+, ce qui en fait un homologue probable du rhombencéphale des vertébrés où se différencient les neurones branchiomoteurs. Cette réassignation du cou à un statut de rhombencéphale (plutôt que de région isthmique, comme accepté précédemment) m’a amené à une révision substantielle du modèle tripartite du cerveau des chordés. Ces données montrent que la région du cou de la larve d’ascidie, homologue du rhombencéphale des vertébrés, donne naissance comme lui à des motoneurones branchiaux, ce qui place l’origine évolutive des nerfs crâniens avant celle des crâniatesThe visceral nervous system (VNS) controls our digestive, respiratory and cardio-vascular functions. The homeodomain transcription factor Phox2b is specifically expressed in the neurones that compose it and controls their differentiation. This extreme specificity makes Phox2b a powerful tool to investigate the VNS phylogenetic history. I focused on the urochordate Ciona intestinalis whose adult lives attached to a rock and filters water to breathe and feed. I hypothesized that, in the absence of any locomotion, their nervous system should be almost entirely visceral. It showed that indeed, the vast majority of the neurons of the adult cerebral ganglion expresses a molecular code (Phox2+, Tbx20+, ChAT+, Mnr2-) specific for vertebrates branchial and visceral motoneurons. I also showed that these neurons innervate muscles that are used to contract the branchial basket composing the greatest part of the animal. The homology between these neurons and vertebrates branchial motoneurons is further supported by their developmental origin. Indeed, I showed that the adult ganglion derives from the embryonic neck region and that this region expresses Phox2 and Hox1, and is thus homologous to the vertebrate hindbrain, where branchial motoneurons differentiate. This reassignement of the ascidian larval neck to a hindbrain status, as opposed to an isthmic region as previously accepted, led me to substantially revise the chordate tripartite brain model. These data show that the ascidian neck region, homologous to the vertebrate hindbrain, gives rise just like the latter to branchial motoneurons and pushes back the evolutionary origin of cranial nerves to before the emergence of craniates
