Full textDe toutes les manifestations du réchauffement climatique planétaire, une des plus évidentes est sans aucun doute la fonte de la calotte polaire arctique. À mesure que les glaces pluriannuelles de l’Arctique disparaissent, la dernière frontière géostratégique de la Terre émerge. L’ouverture du mythique passage du Nord-Ouest laisse alors présager l’accès aux ressources naturelles dont regorge l’Arctique et ramène à la vie le fantasme des explorateurs des derniers siècles de raccourcir par plusieurs milliers de kilomètres le passage maritime entre l’Asie et l’Europe. Depuis quelques années, ce scénario a ravivé le débat sur l’Arctique et les questions de souveraineté qui l’entourent, un sujet sensible pour le Canada, notamment en raison de ses significations identitaires. Le théâtre arctique est donc la scène de plusieurs revendications territoriales, mais également de nombreuses spéculations sur la manière dont celles-ci se régleront. Conséquemment, les discours politiques des représentants du gouvernement canadien ont été nombreux dans les dernières années à affirmer haut et fort la vision souveraine du Canada sur sa portion de l’Arctique. Le projet de recherche qui suit vise à étudier le rôle que ces discours jouent dans la construction sociale de la souveraineté du Canada en Arctique.
Of all the manifestations of global warming, one of the most obvious is undoubtedly the melting of the Arctic polar icecap. As the multi-year ices of the Arctic disappear, the last geostrategic frontier of the Earth emerges. The opening of the mythical Northwest Passage foreshadows access to the natural resources which abound in the Arctic, and resuscitates the unrealised desires of past centuries’ explorers to shorten by several thousand miles the sea passage between Asia and Europe. In recent years, this scenario has reignited the debate over the Arctic, as well as issues of sovereignty surrounding it, a sensitive topic for Canada, particularly because of the Arctic’s role in its meanings of identity. The Arctic theatre is therefore the scene of various territorial claims, but also of several speculations as to how they will be settled. As a result, political discourses of Canadian government officials have been numerous in recent years to affirm loud and clear the sovereign vision of Canada on its portion of the Arctic. The following research aims to study the role played by these discourses in the social construction of Canada’s sovereignty in the Arctic.

De todas las manifestaciones del calentamiento global, una de las más obvias es el derretimiento del Ártico. A medida que los hielos plurianuales del Ártico desaparecen, surge la última frontera geoestratégica de le Tierra. El mítico paso del Noroeste hace posible el acceso a los recursos naturales que abundan en el Ártico, y vuelve realidad el sueño de los exploradores de siglos pasados de reducir miles de kilómetros de pasaje marítimo entre Asia y Europa. En los últimos años, este escenario ha intensificado el debate acerca del Ártico y las cuestiones de soberanía que lo rodean, un tema sensible para Canadá, especialmente por el significado identitario. El teatro ártico es entonces el escenario de varias reivindicaciones territoriales, pero también de muchas especulaciones sobre la manera en que éstas serán resueltas.

Full textFrom 1945 to 1960, the general department for french cultural relations gradually took charge of the organization and financing of all theatrical, musical and artistic events as well as of french films and books circulation. The french government also supported actively stanislas and marie de france french schoools in montreal and answered the universities' increasing needs of teachers, representatives and grants in quebec. On the other hand, narrow-mindedness and conservatism of maurice duplessis, quebec's prime minister, and the ivth republic's numerous crisis jeopardized quebec french political relations until 1960. Quebec french relations really were at their best during the sixties. Quebec's quiet revolution, the opening of quebec's consulate in paris and de gaulle's interest in that "country" brought about change. The bilateral cooperation became official through, first, educative and cultural agreements but then, paris-quebec-ottawa relations grew more bitter. Finally, the french foreign office exlusively centered its diplomacy on economical and technical relations, which resulted in french exhibitions in montreal in 1963 and at the world fair in 1967, french-technical committee and administrative or technical trainees. Big french firms (cge, renault, schneider. . . ) took part in quebec's industrialization and public works. In july 1967, de gaulle's own words "vive le quebec libre !" enabled quebec to be acknowledged in the world. The cooperation means were increased a fourfold thanks to the johnson-peyrefitte agreements in september. Therefore, the year 1967 crowned the french policy to develop more common relations, which were not naturally political

Full textLeadership is a process of social inflence through which an actor advocating for a position on an international issue induces followers to converge on the same position. Leadership in this sense, as a process of cooperation, has been neglected in the study of international politics. An accumulating body of evidence reveals that the United States is not the only state that can produce international leaders, and that policymakers from other states can also take the lead. Why is someone willing to take the lead? Why are other actors willing to follow this leader and not someone else, or just refuse to agree with the leader’s stance? To explain how the leadership process works, I develop a Cognitive-Affective Theory of international leadership. My argument is that leaders are willing to take the lead because of their strong convictions, and seek to persuade their followers that their position is representative of the wider community of which they are part. Followers rally behind the leader when their emotional beliefs align with the leader, when the leader’s position and behavior are representative of the community, and when mechanisms of persuasion and emotional resonance bring them closer to the leader’s position. In order to test this theory, I concentrate on the leadership process among transatlantic powers: the United States, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. I study the cooperation between transatlantic policymakers on crucial issues that emerged during four cases of internationalized intrastate conflicts: recognition of Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia as new sovereign states, peace mediation in the war between Russia and Georgia, economic sanctions against Russia during the Ukraine conflict, and construction of a broader coalition conducting air strikes against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

Full textFor so long Spain had been a country of emigration but since the 1990s it has become one of the favourite destinations of Sub-Saharan Africans. Senegalese, Malians, Congolese, Central Africans, Nigerians, Ghanaians, Guineans, Ivoirians and so forth undertake the journey by “patera” or “cayuco” in order to reach the Spanish borders via various itineraries among which Morocco remains the main transit country. Since Spain was not prepared for permanent settlement of foreigners on its territory, between 1985 and 2008, the country had to start adapting its legislation to the new realities related to this phenomenon. With the "Ley de Extranjería" of 1985, Spain regulates the stay of foreigners and with the Organic Law 4/2000 social integration of foreigners is addressed for the first time even though in its implementation, the PP and PSOE have slightly different policies. As far as the PP is concerned, it is a policy focusing on security issues and tightened border controls, whereas the PSOE focuses on the rights and welfare of migrants already living in Spain. The adoption of the "Africa" plan (2006-2008) heralds a new diplomatic perspective of Spain in Africa. Moreover, NGOs, associations and even the Spanish government are committed, each in its field of competence, to the process of integration of black Africans in Spain. Nowadays, this phenomenon puts Spain in partnership with Africa in the economic, social, and political fields

Full textThis research looks at the importance of France in Taiwanese outbound tourism and the possibilities for its development. The analysis relates to the evolution of Taiwanese tourism in France, from 1979 to the present day, as well as the causes of this phenomenon in the Taiwanese society. It considers the economie and sociological change of Taiwanese society and its accelerated westernization in terms of levels and living conditions. The study also examines the supply and demand of Taiwanese tourism towards France. It highlights the capital role played by the travel agency in the development of this Taiwanese tourism in France. Since 1994, France has been the most popular European destination for Taiwanese tourists. Nevertheless, this leading position tends to be exhausted because of increasing competition of the other European countries and the rest of the world. Our study on the development of Taiwanese tourism in France is based on a series of general observations drawn from examination of the available comprehensive statistics, as well as on field investigation which we carried out among Taiwanese tourists and Taiwanese specialized agencies. It appears that our description of the evolution of Taiwanese tourism in the recent past is very similar to the current organization and characteristics of tourism in the People's Republic of China. In this respect, the experimental role played by Taiwanese tourism can allow for an observation and prediction of the development of Chinese tourism in France

Full textIran has long been considered as a pariah state in international affairs due to the development of the country’s nuclear program. Yet, the very same states that have denounced Iran’s nuclear ambitions and pushed for the imposition of international sanctions have collaborated with Iranian authorities on counter-narcotics issues. This research explores how members of the international community framed their public discourse on Iran in order to justify both counter-narcotics cooperation with Iran and denunciation of the country’s nuclear program. The political statements of seven governments that provided assistance to Iran’s counter-narcotics efforts from 2007 to 2011 were systematically analysed with the help of Qualitative Content and Discourse analyses. Our analysis revealed that these donor countries held contradictory representations of Iran, constructing it simultaneously as an enemy and a partner. These findings suggest that nuclear confrontation with Iran is not inevitable but rather results from the discursive practices of international actors.

Full textAdopting a post-structuralist perspective in line with historical anthropology, this thesis examines the recent ethnicisation phenomenon involving groups from eastern Canada who designate themselves as “Métis”. The aim is to make sense of this event by considering it as a cultural process identified as “culturalism”. The study relies mainly on interviews conducted in various regions of Canada with individuals of French-Canadian descent who emphasize their native ancestry. Eastern Métis have started getting organized on the political scene within the last decades, and this has caused their perspectives to confront those of the dominant socio-cultural order. Indeed, the Canadian authorities express some serious reservations about this increasingly pressing call for recognition. Rather than considering solely the political and legal dimensions of this phenomenon, this research unveils cultural resistances as well as conflicting logics, world views and collective memories found on both sides of this complex dialectics. This thesis focuses on the study of the concerns of the Métis with regards to cultural continuity, especially when it comes to providing game and fish for food purposes. They are aware that certain essential aspects of their cultural heritage are now threatened, especially in a context of capitalist development that impacts on the sociopolitical scene. The Métis call upon their memory and express their collective awareness of change which they view as a modification of their specificities and that is in fact the cultural cause for their efforts towards ethnicity. Using a comparative and multi-sited approach as well as fieldwork data seldom exploited in eastern Canada Métis studies, this research sheds a new light on the phenomenon of ethnicisation. The post-structural perspective adopted here is meant to allow a better comprehension of the issues and challenges that eastern Métis have been confronted to since the nineteenth century. I discuss the way Métis culturalism can be considered as the moment when culturally specific collective action arises, in the face of particular events.

Full textIn Quebec and in France, at school, health is often seen through the filter of health promotion and the large campaigns of Public health relayed by the school health with in particular evaluations of programs and analyses inter organizational (Weiner et al, 1988 ; Jourdan et al, 1998 ; Carlson et al, 2008 et Kreulen et al, 2009). For many years, the official texts (Quebec Education Program (2001) and the common base of the knowledge in France (1998)) invite teachers to tackle health education in a comprehensive and systemic way and include it in the nearest learning. Although, health education makes explicit part of the curriculum, it is hardly a place in school. It does, indeed, not the configuration of a discipline and may involve different field school (Physical Education, Biology, etc). Answering, these injunctions require firstly that Health education is not seen as an empirical notion but more rather as a strong conviction that teachers want to work with pupils and secondly, an opening of the class toward the other class and the school toward the community. For this qualitative and comparative research, we were interested, at first, to spot the nature of the collective actions in health education realized in primary schools in Quebec (n=6) and in France (n=6), secondly, to analyze the types of partnership and finally, in the third time, to put in relation the nature of the health education actions and the type of networks.The frame of analysis of the partnership is the one of Mérini (1999, 2006) who defines the partnership as «the minimum common actions negotiated towards the resolution of a problem or a problematic recognized as mutual».The corpus is constituted from professional papers (report of meeting, pupils' production, project of school, etc.) collected over two years and of semi-managed conversations. For our analysis, only the professional papers were considered. At first, we described and analyzed the nature of health education actions under the angle of the definition of Mérini (2007, 2009) to know that " health education, at school, can conceive as the installation of a series of reports to one, to the others, in the environment, in the past and in the future with the aim of bringing the pupil by opinions reasoned to make choices enlightened in health " and on the other hand, through teachers practices.The results demonstrate that in Quebec, the report to one is the most worked while in France, it is the report in the other one. In Quebec, the actions seem more complex than in France and combine often more than a report. Finally, in Quebec, more health education actions join the promotion of an active lifestyle. Secondly, we were interested in the partnership logics which underlie health education actions under the angle of the networks of opening and collaboration and the resources used to set up and develop these actions. The results show that the school finds its in-house resources and that the network of type 2 is the most frequent. Its stake is the training of the pupils. In France, actions are often subcontracted because the teachers consider the more competent specialists. The outer participants are different: in France, we find especially "préventologues" whereas in Quebec, the school works with parents or associations. [...]

Full textThe GCC countries, comprising of Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Oman, occupy a prominent place in the oil and gas market in terms of production and reserves. They are now representing a very lucrative consumer market and are also turning into producers, especially in high-energy industries. The Gulf countries are however located in the Middle East: a politically unstable and dynamic region. The GCC countries have therefore engaged in a process of diversifying their geopolitical relationships in order to provide themselves with the ability to defend their own interests and reduce their dependence on their American ally. Thus, geopolitical relations between the GCC countries and emerging powers in Asia are growing. While remaining clear allies with the global north and specifically the US, Arab Gulf countries are beginning to increase their relations with Asian partners. India, with which some GCC countries have geographic proximity and historical ties since antiquity. China is also increasing its presence in the Arab world. Japan and Korea are also prominent as key industrial countries. Singapore has influenced urban dynamics in the Gulf. Malaysia and Indonesia, Muslim oil countries, are also included. The same is true for the Philippines, a vast archipelago providing the Gulf countries with abundant labor. The aim of the study is to attempt to better understand the conditions that would enable GCC countries to rise to a higher level of competition and progress in the international system, through the establishment and advancement of new collaborations with emerging Asian states

Cette perception est analysée par le biais de la presse, soit les journaux d'allégeance conservatrice The Morning Chronicle et La Minerve, ainsi que les journaux libéraux Le Pays et The Montreal Witness. La conclusion essentielle est que l'allégeance politique de tel ou tel journal prime sur toutes autres considérations dans les prises de position face à la guerre de Sécession : il y a une grande unité de ton entre le Chronicle et La Minerve, et une animosité absolue entre Le Pays et cette même Minerve, même si ces deux derniers jours sont francophones. De même, Le Pays et le Witness ont en gros la même orientation, et ce même Witness est en opposition avec le Chronicle. L'importance capitale de l'allégeance politique fait que l'analyse de la guerre de Sécession elle-même passe souvent au second plan dans la couverture de cet événement par ces journaux, couverture qui sert plutôt de prétexte pour commenter la politique canadienne.

Full textThis dissertation examines the evolving nature of indigenous nations and nationalism in Canada. Nations self-identification and normative foundations of indigenous nationalism are mainly rooted in tradition and continuity. In return, we note the increasing integration of indigenous discourse in a very modern repertoire, making use of concepts such as "self-determination", "sovereignty" citizenship and "government", among others, as certain political elites and citizens actions demonstrate a modern conception of the nation. Research therefore focuses on the impact of tradition and modernity in the contemporary definition of the nation and the indigenous nationalism. This research proposes a cross perspective between political thought, empirical analysis, and normative theories. Two interpretive scenarios are considered. First, the thesis of continuity, following the primordialist approach, where one would observe among Aboriginals the presence, prior to contact with Europeans and the advent of modernity, of nations and structured political elements. It is a dominant speech among Aboriginal nationalist elites. A second scenario, derived from the theory of ethnosymbolism, does not exclude that some core elements have remained, such as myths, symbols, traditions, and that nations are formed around pre-existing ethnic cores. However, it also takes into account the evolution towards more political standards, due to the impact of modernity and the influence of surrounding nations and nationalism. This scenario is favored in the research. Following the observation of various types of contemporary indigenous nationalism in Canada, with regard to the relation with the state, its structures and the role playing by elites and citizens. Then, a case study is presented, that of the Innu in Quebec, consisting of interviews with key players, which allows to verify the validity of the interpretative scenario. In parallel, research has a considerable normative part. The latter, based on the self-determination of nations, examines the normative assumptions of Aboriginal nationalism which perform a synthesis between tradition and modernity. To conclude, some reformulation of the nature of Aboriginal nations and nationalism is proposed, in which the normative bases, mainly rooted in the past, are reconsidered by integrating and taking more modern elements as well, depending on the conclusions reached by the research.

Full textFor already sixty years, Korea has been divided into two states, the Popular Democratic Republic of Korea in the North and the Republic of Korea in the South. The Korean civilisation exists in the korean peninsula since the era of the prehistory. The Korean nation will develop itself progressively and will be unified before its annexion by Japan from 1910 until 1945. Afterwards Korea will be free from Japan thanks to the armed intervention of the soviet troups above the 38th parallel and of the american troups below. This temporary demarcation line will become definitive after the creation of two governments and the occupation of the South by the american army. The Korean war from 1950 until 1953 will make the situation worse leaving side by side two governments leading to recurrent political and military conflicts. Because of this division imposed from the outside, the two Korean states came closer to each other to cooperate in certain fields. However the korean reunification seems to be compromised since the conservative government in the South came into power and refused the korean peninsula to be reunified using the system of confederation, the Republic of Korea prefering absorbing the North. The problem of the reunification overtake the borders of the peninsula. It concerns above all China and the United States. Japan is also concerned. Europe is missing from the debates. The Federation of Russia seems to be the only big power having no objection to the reunification of the korean peninsula and ready to help Korea to accomplish this goal

Full textSince the beginning of the 1980s, the political and economic changes undertaken by the Laotian State have reshaped the face of the country. These changes work to foster greater integration into international markets and to further develop the country. The results of these transformations are noticeable in rural and mountainous landscape and have influenced the evolution of the ethnic minorities’ livelihoods and lifestyles. The recent development of agro-commercial plantations has contributed to reorganize the socio-economical geography of the northern Laotian provinces, including Luang Namtha. How do local populations adapt to these quick transformations? What changes do these changes involve? This research, which utilizes a multiscalar approach, helps to better understand the inner workings of this integration and the local adaptation process into the national and international systems. KEYWORDS: Laos, integration, rural world, ethnic minorities, livelihoods, adaptation.

Full textFocused on the concept of land, this master’s degree thesis is a presentation of what this notion represents for a group of hunter-gatherers of western Canada. Settled for thousands of years on the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in North-East British-Columbia and in Alberta, the Dane-zaa (“The Real People”), intimately engaged in their environment, have been developing knowledge and technics adapted to a rational and sustainable land management, generation after generation. However, this relationship does not only concern the exploitation of the resources the land provides, but also the bonds between humans and non-humans who share it. Since the arrival of the first euro-Canadians settlers and the signature of Treaty 8 in 1900 which ordered the creation of a reserve, the land of the Dane-zaa, their “home” and a space of history and memory, has been fragmented and has become the site of political and economic stakes and interests often divergent and which can hardly been reconciled.

Full textLa diplomatie énergétique russe s’affirme pendant les années 2003-2004, comme une démarche pragmatique, un moyen opportuniste de rencontrer un projet politique en utilisant un des rares leviers dont dispose ce pays appauvri et affaibli – sa puissance énergétique qu’il s’agit de transformer un outil de puissance politique, raison pour laquelle la politique étrangère russe va être mise au service de ce projet. Le travail fait donc référence aux spécificités internes de la Russie et au contexte international afin d’identifier les faiblesses et les forces de cette diplomatie spécifique.
Russian energy diplomacy, with which this work is uniquely concerned, differs from the classic industrial policies adopted by states in order to re-launch their economies or certain industrial sectors. It has consisted of putting Russia’s natural resources and particularly its energy potential (as a producer, a consumer, and a transit country) to the practical purpose of restoring its status as a great power. For Russia, the return to power would permit the country to emerge from its period of transition and become a leading actor in the world reshaped by the ending of the cold war. It is a matter of making its voice heard, as an equal partner in international decisions and the formulation of the new political norms necessitated by post-cold war upheaval.
In 2002-2004 Russia developed this energy diplomacy as a pragmatic and opportunistic means of attaining a political objective with one of the few levers at the disposal of an impoverished and enfeebled country – that is to say, its energy potential, which it turned into a political tool. To this effect, Russian foreign policy has been made to serve the same project.
