Huang, Hui. "Un paysage culturel dynamique : géographie historique et économique des musées parisiens." Thesis, Paris 1, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA010627/document.
Full textParis has an exceptional cultural landscape, in which museums play an important role. This PhD thesis insists that this landscape has never ceased to change and is still changing. As for the museums themselves, far from being institutions opposed to change and to a modern economy, we have shown that they participate in the productive economy, specifically in the symbolic production, and that they manage to adapt to the public demand, to adjust their statutes, to rethink their links with other institutions and so on. Finally, we claim that museum activities are characterized by their similarities with other forms of symbolic consumption, and their spatial proximity with the areas of symbolic consumption

Full textJapanes fermeted beverage made with rice and water, the sake has a strong national identity. The purpose of this research is to compare the geography of sake with the well-known geography of wine and to observe with this case of a strong identity beverage, as well the specificity of Japan and te universal points of development of specific territories. Three main questions are posed : _ Why Japan has maintained his rice wine as an identity beverage ? As sake usually associated with Japan, this relation is not as obvious as it seems. In ancient times, similar rice wines were consumed all over Asia, and they have been marginalized everywhere except in the Japanes archipelago when distillation techniques were discovered. _ Where, how, and why did specific territories of sake production appear in Japan ? Which explication (historical, economical, know-how or terroir) can be advanced to explain the birth of a production of sake of quality ? _ How does the sake industry adapt itself to the new modes of consumption of japans consumers who drink less ? How does it adapt itself to Modernity and globalization ? What is the actual evolution of the sake’s legislation ?

Full textThis dissertation is an evaluation of the geographical results of the soviet period in present Belarus. A lot of journalists throughout the world and a large part of international public opinion think that Belarus is a totally sovietized and russified country. But this idea is quite schematic and must be qualified. During the soviet period, Belarus' became a state with a unified territory. In the same time, the soviets created a really homogeneous economic space. They managed to stabilize the boundaries and to construct a dense communication network and to create a national industry. In the beginning of the twentieth century, nothing showed that a state should appear in this area. Present Belarus is a creation planned by the soviets. At the national level, sovietization worked very well. But a precise and detailed research shows that the soviet project often did not succeed. The sovietization obviously worked in the cities: the soviets managed to create a really geometrical city network throughout the country. On the contrary, the cultural geography is quite the same as in the tsarist period, as far as religions, languages and nationalities are concerned. The geography of the agricultural productions has changed a lot since 1917. But the geography of the different forms of rural habitat had not changed at all. This geographical continuity can be explained by historical events or by permanent characteristics of local geography

Full textIndia has a very old knowledge on certain techniques of the body which are revivified in the contemporary world. The globalisation of yoga is an example. Yoga becomes more and more a globalised technique of the body which is practised with a therapeutic, cultural, and/or identity aim. The corpus of yoga is then modified and “bricolé” to fit into individual and collective needs, inviting us to deepen the reflection about interindividual network connexions at the global scale. The multiple circulations of yoga to the contemporary world largely influence the construction, the practice and the perception of the global space. Indeed, yoga takes place in particular places, constructed or reappropriated, depending on an original interpretation of yoga. There is a topogenesis operating then, which leads us to renew our considerations about therapeutic landscapes, their globalisation, and their importance in the contemporary geographical thought

Full textZoos are institutions hosting more than 600 million visitors yearly. Zoos are place shaping the living through a collection building process. The organisation of animals by taxonomic, environmental, continental arrangement, rarity or display value is a narrative about our vision of Nature. Exoticism is a form of geographical otherness that does not corne from a localisation but from a gap to a non explicit norm. Wilderness has multi-layered meanings from Ferocious to Authentic. Zoos are places where the geographical imaginary of Otherness is used and reshaped. Zoos are a framework giving alive animals a contextual meaning, a dispositif spatial. My main hypothesis is that zoos are a theater of the living : zoos are about displaying. There is a stage, a hall, a curtain ; they are animals as actors, a public and a show on stage. I will use Foucault's dispositif to analyse how the zoo narrative is both constructed through a wide range of discourses, norms, representations, buildings or landscapes and an everyday practice by visitors and staff. Last but not least, zoos also deal with and express a challenged Human-Animal relationship. In institutions based on a fondamental dichotomy between Human and Animals as categories and a corresponding use of space -the stage for Animals, the hall for Humans, I will first adress the question of Human zoos : how is it possible to display Humans with Animals ? I will then turn to the history of boundary building : from fences to glass, technological and architectural reflects a changing Human-Animal relationship. Zoos may be more than anything a place to experience a metaphysical question : what it is to be Human ?
Grésillon, Boris. "Berlin, métropole culturelle : essai géographique." Fontenay-aux-Roses, Ecole normale supérieure, 2000. http://www.theses.fr/2000ENSF0001.
Full textBased on the analysis of a particular city (Berlin), this thesis tries to answer to the following question : historically and geographically speaking where and how do the places of artistic creation appear, how do they grow and renew themselves ? The work is divided into three parts. The first part consists in a theoretical approach which applies to analyse and to clarify the terms of the subject ("culture" and "metropolis") and to define, "in fine" the "cultural metropolis" from the angle of creativity. The second part, in a geohistorical viewpoint, tries to explain the movement of the cultural history of Berlin i, order to understand the dynamism of its cultural geography. The "roaring twenties", the golden age of Berlin's culture, are particularly analysed : because it is the moment when the "Grosstadt" becomes "Welstadt", a global city, the culture which influences all Europe. The third part concentrates on the contemporary period (1989-2000) and tries, 10 years after the fall of the wall, to take stock of the recomposition of Berlin's cultural landscape and of the new position of Berlin in Germany and Europe, as a cultural metropolis which has become capital again. The conclusion, tries to demonstrate that the cultural, "Sonderweg" a very rich notion which should be rediscovered by the geographers, after having allowed Berlin to express itself on an original way during the 1990's , is now letting up and making room to the "new Berlin" of the year 2000 : a capital city in search of normality
Gilabert, Teodoro. "La géographie de l'art contemporain en France." Nantes, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004NANT3014.
Full textThe rising number of places for Contemporary art is the result of cultural policies , of decentralization, which has favoured the initiatives of the regions with a measure of autonomy, and of the evolution of the artistic processes of the visual artists. The main purpose of the geography of Contemporary art is to study the inscription in space of that form of art and to underline the part played by the different parties involved. The distribution of places is governed by two conflicting factors : the concentration of cultural duties in the cities but also the decentralization of the cultural supply resulting from a policy of cultural development. The aim was to make Contemporary art more accessible to people but the goal has been only partially achieved , notably because of the absence of a genuine policy to promote art education. The logic of supply which makes it possible for people to be close to the works is not enough to open up art to a wide audience

Full textThis research deals with the nature of the geographical structures emerging from the relationships individuals social groups and space. Its main purpose is to some light on the spatial setting of our societies and on the validity of the community level or far as the identification of community is concerned. The demonstartion is based on two experimental fields in the pyrenees atlantiques : we can witness there the rebirth of specific territories based on the development of the local cultural heritage built from the relationship between space and local middle-age pastoral societies. Thus, this worth aims to show that self-sufficient territorial ideologies (set in the specific geo-economic context) tend to fade througt time as the political and material bases that produced them disapear. This research also shows that these ideologies tend to recreate geographical structures that fuel new identiy strategies within suburban areas. One can than witness the reactivation of symbolic territori and the construction of a territories and the construction of a territoriality more fantasiated than actually experienced ; this reactivation shows specifically through the revival of "ancestral" cultural events mineties 1990ies. In the trineteen, these events root the new social dynamics in the baretous an josbaig valleys

Full textIn France, as in all industrialized countries, rurality, defined as social construction of the world, evolves. Mobilities of people, newcomers in rural spaces and urbanization of minds result in new ways of living in countryside. This thesis wants to analyse today rurality by studying drinking establishments practices. It questions decline and forms of renewal in drinking establishments in rural spaces of Brittany. The methods combine interviews with owners and patrons, ethnographic materials and a survey. So we can study profiles and strategies of drinking establishment owners. We propose a typology of drinking establishments in rural Brittany based on activities and products and we highlight the emergence of “alternative” bars. Then, we study the diversity of drinking establishment practices. Patrons’ choices of their bars appear to be related tosocial differentiations in the rural space

Full textThe objective of this thesis is to empirically assess the attractiveness of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Tunisia. The first part analyzes the contemporary FDI with a focus on the change in the context of development in the era of globalisation and the role of FDI in economic development and growth strategies of developing countries. It also analyzes the determinants of the FDI in the theories of strategic investment framework based on the new theories of international trade and the theory of the new geographic economy. The second part focuses on the study of political attractiveness of FDI. Our theoretical findings show that the attractiveness of FDI often depends on initial conditions prevailing in the host country, the strategies of firms and policy attractiveness applied by the country. The liberalisation of trade and investment, trade agreements and regional integration are likely to affect the decision of foreign investors and could constitute an acting field adapted to the development of the global firm. In the third part, we analyze the determinants of FDI in Tunisia during the period 1975-2005. Our econometric results show that the attractiveness in Tunisia relies primarily on its low production costs, its economic stability and its relatively developed infrastructure. The construction of our attractiveness matrix shows that Tunisia must improve its institutional determinants for inclusion in the "short list" of countries hosting foreign investors

Full textThe Buddhism geography in France is by essence a transdisciplinary search axed on the geography of the religiosity. Such research asks a varied methodology because of the complexity of the subject. It is matter of he Buddhism, science of the spirit par excellence and of the human comportment of its adepts, it import to cross the datum of the spirit and the substance, the datum of ideal and material. Started of the notion of attractor developed for analysis of unstable dynamic systems, we shall try to show the emergent proprieties outcome of the complex dynamic of the human comportments in front of the essential: the sense of the life. So, this human ethology is a productive of space and networks. The Buddhism of Tibetan tradition has been introducing in France since more of thirty years, by a lot of actors, the principal belonging to scientific networks who where working for the global peace. He kneed several adaptations at rituals levels and at teaching levels. Parts of them emerge of the asking of the publics, others are direct emanations of the people who organise the message diffusion. At the territorial dynamic levels, the laics powers have been central. The secularisation of Buddhism induced his penetration in several sectors : humane tasks, education and ecological consciousness have a share in this phenomenon. At the XXIe century, we must notice the difference between the recuperated strengths of the Buddhism and his undeniable spiritual impact. The Vajrayãna Buddhism relate to the "Cosmic religion" as Albert Einstein describe

Full textIn 1900 the oyapock river became the franco-brazilian boundary. Since the discovery of the new world until this year, the property of the region between the amazon and the oyapock rivers had produced a territorial dispute between french and lusobrazilian governments. The first victims had been the amerindians. However, during centuries, the new populations of both sides of the oyapock - ethnic or mixed groups -, although they are not numerous anymore, have continued to consider the river as the main articulation of this amazonian isolated region. Today it is concerned with political and economic supra-national organizations such as the european market, including the oversea department (dom) of french guyana as an "ultra-peripheral region"; or the latin-american mercosur, the commun market of southern america, which is proceeding to the integration of the amazonian states of brazil. The future of the "european-amazonian-brazilian-american" oyapock area will depend on new dividing or unifying process engaged between the two societies whose models of development (north and south) are very different, specialy in respect to their number, as the population of the federal state of amapa represents eight times those of french guyana with the big problem of the uncontrolable migratory development. However, the real european interest for french guyana is limited to the litoral area, where the maritime and ultra-atmospheric activities are situated, mainly with the spatial center of kourou, its economic heart. In this respect, it seems that the "empty" hinterland of the oyapock border area is send to his continental and amazonian vocation, which was removed to it until now. A transborder cooperation between french guyana and amapa federal state is being encouraged by both the countries. At the moment, we can see the realization of the french road cayenne-oyapock, while the new governor of amapa wishes cross-border interrelationship

Full textThis thesis results from a ten years search about human presence and arrangements of natural caves. First, our assumption stood out clearly with prejudices often repeated about caves, allways and anywhere frigtening people and keeping them abroad. Now, caves had full place in traditional development of limestone countries and montains. In so far as there was an actual interest, nobody never hesitated in going underground nor in facing great difficulties and risks. In the first two chapters are collected elements of proof and the human presence in caves is looked at in all its various bearings : shelters-caves, caves arranged to forteresses and maturing cheese places, caves turned in sanctuaries and so on. . . Third chapter deals with underground tourism, where interface caves as they were perceived by local populations able to catch a little money with visitors, and underground landscapes contemplated by urban travellers. Genesis of this touristic ressource had narrow links with progress of cave science, history of sensibilities and needing in touristic attractions around spas. Fourth and fifth chapters forsake daily presence in caves and take an interest in scientific and patrimonial status of caves : as varius sights of caves were discovered, progressively grows the care of their protection. Around 300 caves and pot-holes are today protected in France by several laws and status here studied

Full textLike other South African cities, Cape Town bears the mark of different ideologies: that of segregation and that of apartheid. A historical geography of greater Cape Town shows that they were legally embodied in urban space as soon as 1901, partly because of the influence of western urban planning theories. But the big townships will be developed only from 1948. A detailed study of each black township brings to light the characteristics of this specifically South African urban model, designed for social and political control of the blacks. Nevertheless, in landscapes that were forced upon them, black people managed to develop an original African and urban culture: this is demonstrated by a cultural geography of the townships and squatter camps. This culture includes some consciously chosen values - be they western or traditional - such as education, religion and solidarity for the middle class. Today, the political conditions have been deeply altered in South Africa. The post-apartheid city is appearing, shaped by the inheritances of apartheid, the inertia of space and the formation of new, racially mixed, neighborhoods. At the same time, the cape society is evolving

Full textThe purpose of this study is to analyse the spatial organization of Kathmandu city. We tried to emphasize the connections between the spatial patterns of the town and the social realities it houses. During this study we worked at different scales : house scale, neighbourhood, city, each connected with a different social layer : family, cast, or society. We also divided Kathmandu into two spatial units : the city, shaped along the centuries by newars, considered as the original population of the valley, and the recent extensions, which spread out since 1950's, and are the result of migrant populations. After a detailed presentation of these two units, we attempted to explain their structures and their aspects through their populations and the historical events which shape or transform them. Then we considered some special aspects, trying to think over the sense of the acts, the changes and the persistences. We thus underlined for instance the link between the vanishing of the neighbourhood as a way of space organization of the town and the dislocation of the cast system, or also the prominent part taking by the courtyard in the traditional newar society

Full textThis thesis explores the relation between the London Jewish population and urban space as a form of community territorialisation. The research aims to bring together two completing perspectives. Firstly, how cultural representations and projects of a group signify the urban space and affect its social geography. And secondly, the interaction between those representations and projects produced by a group and the representations of the urban space and the place of ethno-religious groups in it produced by the larger society. Having introduced the Talmudic geography based on the ritual time of Shabbat, the text analyses the evolving geography of Jewish presence in London. The shift from an initial concentration in the East End at the tum of the 201h century to the current settlement in North West London shows the relationship between ritual needs, community facilities and Jewish concentrations. The text demonstrates the distinctiveness of the Jewish population's dynamic in urban space, which seems to be a unique case among the contemporary London ethnic and religious groups, an example of Ceri Peach 's positive segregation rather than a ghetto. The text subsequently explores the creation in the 1990s of a new facility, the North West London Eruv, aimed at a local Jewish community. This project is analysed for the debate it raised about its potential demographic implications and the right of communities to religiously signify urban (public) space in a multicultural society

Full textThis memoir studies the interactive relation between a musical creation and its geographic environment. The musicgeography field of research is rich however very few studies offer aspecific analytic modelthat would gather every thematic concerned inthis relation. Using the field of cartography, this memoir offers the foundation for a methodological model in orderto analysethe geography of a musical creation. After establishing the model’s basics, the later will be illustrated with Donny Hathaway’s “The Ghetto” (1970, Atlantic Records).As soon as it wasfirst broadcast, “The Ghetto” wasa big success. In this study, the trackis associated with its urban homonym. During an interview in 2008, the journalist Dyana Williams mentioned that Hathaway “glamorized” the ghetto thanks to this track (Payne 2008). This relation between “The Ghetto” with the actual ghetto is particular and multidirectional, from that “glamorization” goalto its commercial effects. The methodological model possesses many characteristics and builds a taxonomy of the map itself. Through this theoretical link from the map to the cultural object, the very definition of the map is being transformed. This model underlines specific clues in the musical creation that solidify its topographical bond. These clues allow us to draw a musical creation’s cartography.Therefore, this memoir offers the foundation for the methodological model, developsits characteristics and analysesits application on “The Ghetto”. This study addresses many subjects such as the ideological and political conflicts that animate the American black reflexionat that time, the musical integration techniques, the cultural identity creation and a ghettoized urbanism’s history.

Full textThis research proposes to study the process of rise and decline of rural industries on mount pelion, using both published and non-published documents, consular archives and especially the unpublished and non-catalogued documents found in the local communal libraries. Pelion is a mountainous region that is and was in the 18th century densely populated. Its agriculture was intensive but deficient and wouldn't nourish its population and thus the peasants had to combine their agricultural with industrial activities and use complex strategies of seasonal and temporary emigration. A social strata of communal notables that were equally merchants and financiers played a pivotal role in guaranteeing a relative administrative autonomy along with the commercialization and financing of both industrial and agricultural activities. Their power was founded on the succesful administration of the communal finances and the domination of local markets of credit and products. The conditions of the rise and decline of rural industries on the whole of eastern thessaly are also examined

This approach sheds light on the evolution of technical knowledge, the regionalisation of China in Early Medieval times, on the imperial integration of non Chinese peoples, and on the constitution of a geography of memory

Full textThis thesis presents a geographic analysis of folkloric development in Southern Catalonia. The bulk of examples of « folklore », « tradition » and « legacy » and the invocation of territoriality serve to confirm a renewed regional identity and support claims of its authenticity, requiring analysis of the links between origins of traditions and the continuing territorial fragmentation of this rural area. Straddling the borders of three autonomous communities, South Catalonia is in conflict over water management and marginalized from the development of a Catalan identity, but the « Terres de l’Ebre » is also an administrative region in the making. The regional pride displayed in cultural enlistment, the practice, motivations and ideologies of groups and individuals along with the role of an active cultural legacy in the construction of the territory are analysed through the use of archives, investigation and interviews. Folkloric development and its interplay support a region-forming process, bringing geographical and territorial identity to the area
Esta tesis propone un análisis geográfico de la folklorización en la Cataluña meridional. El aumento de las manifestaciones del « folklore », de lo « tradicional » y del « patrimonio » junto a la fuerza de la invocación del territorio como soporte de una identidad reivindicada y garantía de una autenticidad proclamada, requieren un análisis de las relaciones entre la construcción de las tradiciones y la territorialización en esta región rural en mutación. Espacio transfronterizo de tres Comunidades Autónomas, Sur catalán en conflicto sobre la gestión del agua, zona marginalizada de la construcción identitaria catalana, les « Terres de l’Ebre » forman también un territorio administrativo en proyecto. Las lógicas patrimoniales del voluntarismo cultural, las prácticas, motivaciones e ideologías de las asociaciones e individuos, así como el papel de la acción patrimonial en la construcción de territorios, están analizados mediante archivos, encuestas y entrevistas. La folklorización y sus juegos de mirada constituyen un proceso territorializado, vector de « geograficidad » y performativo de identidades territoriales

Kava is the beverage of a civilization, from its tradition to its modernity. Kava existence and distribution are not natural. The species is the result of a plant improvement by the Pacific islanders which carried it everywhere they went. Kava drinkers have created the plant and its beverage according to their own cultural expectations. The present work is a geographical study of the determinants of quality, it aims at preserving a cultural heritage and at adding value to a traditional crop that grows in marginal territories, an environment submitted to increased globalization

Full textGeographers have always been interested in borders, since these appeared. In fact geography is the only science which considers border to be a field of research in itself. At the end of xixth c. And in the beginning of xxth, borders were approached in their political aspects only. After a period of oblivion and, paradoxically, at the time of the suppression of borders inside europe, contemporary geographers are interested again in their study, but from the economical, sociological and cultural more than geopolitical point of view. However the meaning of border exceeds these approaches; that is the reason why border is examined here in the light of the geographical concepts of territory and place. Observed in such a way, it has three aspects. First, as a symbol of nation, it may appear stiff and fixed, participating in the construction of the national territory, whose is is the end, fixed by norm. Secondly, if we try to come closer to the point of view of border populations in their daily life, this fixity disappears : being appropriated by them, integrated in their speech, border is one of the necessary components of the construction of a particular place, the border village. This place, built in such a way, is singular, since it is a space admittedly truncated by a limit imposed from outside, the national border. Finally, at the very core of the mind of border populations, as far as we can perceive it, another space appears : it is the place, along the national border, of endogenous (necessary to the construction of the group) and exogenous (through smuggling practices) transgressions. We call it "ante-place" because it both contrasts with the place constituted by the practices and representations of border populations and reinforces the archaic roots of the group identity. In spite of these three aspects, border is unique, its fragmentation and distortion resulting from the methods of approach. These different methods have been tested on the french-spanish border case in the west pyrenees

Full textIn Europe, Jean-Jacques Rousseau felt the Alps as a landscape as he depicted the forest as a cradle of the European civilisation. In China, Sie Lingyun showed a similar idea while he experienced an aesthetic cosmos in the forest-mountain. In Korea, three main motivations contributed to the birth of mountain as a landscape : the geographical researches of mountains s an economic source ; the reappearance of mythical mountain to the detriment of the tradition of Buddihist desert ; finally, the pleasure of cosmic and ethic life in the country. Three motivations lead to rediscover the ancient motif of the goddess of pass which symbolizes the mount-matrix. On the pass of the Holly Mother (Sôngmo), Kim Chong-jik felt the mount Chiri as a cradle of the intellectual 'sarim' of Yôngnam. His appreciation marks the true birth of mountain as a landscape. As for the sublime of the mount Kûmgang, it represents the Koreans' aesthetic taste for desert

Full textGeographically linked to the community of Pikogan, but people of a much larger “Abitibi”, the Apitipi8innik have a relationship with their territory that largely exceeds its functionalist aspects. This relationship extends into the language, where toponyms occupy a central place. Understanding the relationship between Apitipi8innik and their “named territory” is a recent academical desire that emerges from the consideration of phenomena where place names are used in public space as tools for territorial and cultural affirmation, as a gateway to a cultural heritage and as a tool for the maintenance and enhancement of the language. This research aims to understand, describe and disseminate apitipi8innik place names and the relationships that Apitipi8innik maintain today with their named territory. There search was conducted with the main stakeholders and undertaken for the best interest of the people holding the knowledge being analyzed. Thus, interviews around participatory mapping sessions or “commented routes” completed and enriched previously published toponymic surveys. The objectives of gathering apitipi8inni toponymic knowledge, distinguishing other toponymies by looking at its characteristics,and putting in place means aimed at spreading the knowledge collected,have led to a geographical reflection on what must also be a linguistic, historical and political issue.The findings will hopefully guide the use of this toponymy by the Apitipi8innik in "new" functions, ranging from display to officialization and the perpetuation of the Anicinape language to cultural tourism.

Full textThe country lane is a geographic object almost forgotten today. Even if it forms a thematic field almost non-exploited and non problematised, the country lane is reemerging as a new catalyst to understand relations between culture and nature. The interest for the country lane is recently renewed by a double tendancy towards its revalorisation, functionnaly with the hiking tourism, culturally with the revival of walking related to the sense of place and the renewal of sensitivity towards "ordinary" landscapes. Basque country is a space which knows a very long tradition in country lanes organisation and maintenance which are structuring social and cultural life. Country lane practice reveals a deep knowledge of places and a real geographic wisdom. Touristification of country lanes is a form of identity attachment and expression of a culture completeness

Full textAfter a survey of the New Economic Geography (NEG) that investigates the links between entrepreneurs’ mobility and public policies, we propose three contributions based on different geographical scales such as cities, nations and the European Union. Then we examine successively some public economic problems such as tax competition : our analysis contrasts with the NEG literature by showing firstly that only a race to the bottom occurs when trade is liberalized and secondly that a tax floor harmonization based on the small jurisdiction tax rate is not Pareto improving. Beside we focuse on the effect of trade integration on the behaviour of a corrupted government. More particularly we are going to question the conditions under which the bad governance (measured by the amount embezzled) is bell-shaped with respect to trade liberalization. Lastly our study estimates the value of EU preferences to developing countries taking into account the fact that available preferences were frequently not fully utilised in 2001, especially in sub-Saharan African countries. For several of these countries, the value of EU tariff preferences, even without accounting for tariff rate quota rents, is worth a significant proportion of their world exports

Full textMurugan is one of the Hindu gods whose religious figure has been present in South India for at least two thousand years. Its worship is strongly associated with the cultural identity of the Tamil Nadu region (the « Tamil country »), the cardinal points of which are marked by its six largest pilgrimage centres. This symbolic and geographic interaction between the temples of Murugan, the territory and the religious circulations dates back at least to the Middle Ages. It is to be found today at the local level and at the international scale of the diaspora as well, whose transnational configuration is reinventing the geography of this cult. The survey shows also that, in relation to the other gods of the Hindu pantheon, the definition of this Hindu deity has endowed it with particular symbolic characteristics, which trigger and direct human actions that are printed in the geographic space, such as the constructions of temples or the devotional pilgrimages towards its holy places. Thus, the situation of the Murugan temple on the hill that overlooks the Mailam village (Tamil Nadu) depends as much on this deity’s thousand-year-old association with peaks, as on its position in relation to the places of worship of other gods. This happens to be the case in a local geography where deities, social groups and their relating spaces are both classified and classifying. In Mauritius, the famous processions for Murugan and the overrepresentation of its temples suggest a context of assertion of the Tamil community against the Hindu majority originating from the North. It also confirms the degree of significance of the places and circulations associated to this cult, to the point of producing territorial acts

Full textWe focus on three key-moments of the constitution of our modern urbanity through the study of the street in Rome. They can be understood as dialectical positions. The first is the foundation, warrant of a link between men and cosmos. The celebrations confirm it, and the street symbolizes this link. Social harmony relies on that special communication between men and their environment. The second movement appears with the perspective. Street becomes a mere tool for the esthetics of power, especially with popes. Finally, the Risorgimento unwinds the last movement with the destruction of the old streets and the appraisal of traffic as a new symbol of civilization. The street, then, is just useful as a highway or a nostalgic landmark. But it does not belong to the people anymore. That nostalgia feeds strong movements or militancy such as tourism, ecology, and patrimony

Full textThe critical concept of Sovereign Wealth Funds is now more than ever a potential for economic, strategic and financial transformation on a global scale.Sovereign wealth funds are increasingly assimilated to the capitalist logic of economic development, financial power and sovereignty as part of a new geopolitics. Sovereign wealth funds have gradually replaced geopolitics with geo-economics, geostrategy, and geofinance, because the power of state sovereignty - parallel or in addition to its diplomatic, strategic and military aspect -, is entirely driven by seeking, securing, and maintaining by all means a competitive position in strategic financial markets as well as in investment zones and economic corridors.Beyond development economics - today characterized by the presence of sovereign wealth funds-, the goal now is to connect the vast Eurasian continent in order to put Russia and China until now on the periphery of Europe, but also the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Asia at the center of a new constellation. Sovereign wealth funds, new Silk Roads and Eurasian integration offer Russia and China the opportunity to tackle this "over-dependence" on the West by using the tool of sovereign wealth funds to reinforce their influence in Europe, China, Africa and Latin America, while at the same time more and more countries are using this tool to accelerate their economic development or use it to step in in the new technological, scientific, economic and financial fields of the twenty-first century.The rise of sovereign wealth funds is changing the strategic landscape at the global and regional levels. The way in which States define and respond to the new challenges posed by this new situation that combines extraction, transformation, use and investment of wealth, whether or not derived from the economic and financial transformation of natural resources, will be crucial for the international relations of the coming decades.This thesis builds on the existing realistic and rationalistic concepts of balancing, cartel movement, commitment issues and asymmetric information to develop explanations of how States with sovereign wealth funds act in a geopolitical context and thus impact the global economy.More specifically, the thesis explores the role that different types of uncertainty play in situations of unstable geopolitical equilibrium. Special attention is paid to the nature of the emerging States with sovereign wealth funds, the balance of power and their impact on the global economy. These concepts are analyzed and illustrated in the context of deglobalization-reglobalization. While undertaking a parallel assessment of geopolitical interactions with other actors, countries, strategies and significant trends, the thesis shows that sovereign wealth funds are the ultimate tool for determining new patterns of temporal sequencing and new transformations or economic transformations in the light of geo-economic issues, geofinancial and geopolitical forecasts of the 21st century

Full textNos études ne sont pas destinées à contribuer à des théories de l'économie. Nous avons documenté immenses cohortes des entreprises industrielles se déplacent d'une région vers une autre région à travers des études statistiques contenant un grand nombre d'entreprises et des modèles statistiques qui sont spécifiquement conçus pour les études. Cette série d'études caractérise un processus de grande échelle de la sortie des entreprises et de l'IED dans le secteur manufacturier de Taïwan et les considérations stratégiques des entreprises. Avec à l'esprit les milieux historiques et économiques étaient, d'abord, l'ouverture de la Chine sur le monde dans le processus de mondialisation et, deuxièmement, les échanges et les investissements entre Taïwan et la Chine dans le processus d'intégration régionale de l'Asie de l'Est. Pour résumer, trois implications significatives peuvent être tirées de cette série d'études: Premièrement, des activités d'entrée et de sortie devrait être étudiée dans une portée d’économie ouverte. Deuxièmement, exiters pourrait être les investisseurs d'IED importants et de ne pas être nécessairement les échecs de fait. L'échelle de production ne peut pas être aussi importante que la sagesse conventionnelle serait indiquer dans la discussion de l'IED. Dernièrement, en aucun cas minimum, les changements dans la structure industrielle ainsi que dans la structure économique peuvent étudier plus appropriés dans la perspective de la Géographie Économique

Full textConsidering the time spent as a student simply as a period of carefree discovery of life no longer corresponds to reality. Today, the time spent studying seems to be primarily a period of doubt, of repositioning, filled with anxiety and uncertainty. While the subject has been central to numerous American studies since the 1960's, the issues of well-being and ill-feeling have rarely been studied by French geographers even though Antoine Bailly provided the theoretical bases necessary for his type of research as early as the 1980's. But, have we taken the true exogenic pathogenic factors, which coexist with respect to students' health in time and space, sufficiently into account in the past ?

Full textThis research analyses the production process of the cultural offer in Avignon and its suburbs. The first step of the research studies the localization of all the cultural actors which produce the cultural offer, then it analyses the factors for this localization. The second step studies the ideological, aesthetical and political preferences of the cultural actors in order to understand their conflicts and cooperations. The third step analyses the political aspects of the thesis problematic: it shows that thinking the production process of cultural offer through a particular territory helps to understand it because the interactions between local associations and municipalities are the determinant factor for this process
