Climatic change, air quality and energy challenges: the role policy in urban transport and preventative measures in developing countries and emerging economies
Transport is an integral component of sustaining livelihoods: without efficient urban transport mankind would not survive and develop and nor would economies. Yet, despite the immense benefits that transport enables, such as access to jobs, markets, education, and consumer goods and services via global supply chains, the transport sector generates substantial disbenefits. These include dependence on non-renewable energy, greenhouse gas emissions, local pollutions, road accidents and inequalities of access. Such disbenefits clearly demonstrate that the transport sector is currently unsustainable economically, environmentally and socially.

Denpasar
The beginning of the XXI century is characterized by the development of international tourism practices. This activity, that has deeply changed the relation to time and space in the western world since the XVIII century, is now conquering the expanding countries of Asia. This specific moment of adoption of an activity and its practices, give the opportunity to analyze the various aspects of its growth. Are we observing a phenomenon of transfers, mutations or creations? If the development of tourism inChina and India has been studied for several years, its development in Indonesia still requires an in-depth analysis. How is this new activity appropriated in the fourth most populous country in the world? What are the effects on the Indonesian society, whose distinctiveness comes from the diversity of its people, cultures, and religions, throughout its 17,000 islands, from Sumatra to Papua?

The role of municipalities in local and territorial development
L’ ISSAE-Cnam Liban Centre Bickfaya lance un appel à communication dans le cadre de sa première journée de recherche sur le thème « Rôle des municipalités dans le développement local et territorial » prévue le 12 novembre 2013 à Bickfaya (Liban). Cette rencontre est l’occasion de s’interroger, d’une part, sur l’importance du développement territorial et, d’autre part, sur les stratégies à adopter pour mobiliser les acteurs privés et surtout publiques comme les municipalités. L’objectif est de faire réunir les chercheurs et praticiens concernés par ce thème pour finalement produire un état des lieux, précieux mais non exhaustif, des travaux de recherche sur la question du développement territorial.

The New Normative Spaces of Globalization
On International Commercial Arbitration in Asia and the Principles of Asian Contract Law
The question whether a new space of commercial regulation is emerging in Asia is generally addressed through the traditional notion of legal order or legal system. Thus, Chinese Law or Japanese Law on Arbitration, for example, is examined by underlining the specificities of such domestic law. Would it be possible to question the emergence of an Asian space of business law, not only from the exclusive standpoint of legal norms but from the standpoint of the actors themselves and their legal practices? -

The Palestinian Political Economy: Daily practices, sustainability and prospects
Ce colloque scientifique, organisé à Hébron, ambitionne d’aller au-delà des approches institutionnelles. Il vise à permettre aux différents participants de présenter leurs travaux de terrain mais également à favoriser l’échange et le débat. Les contributions mettent l’accent sur différentes études de cas à Jérusalem, Gaza et en Cisjordanie, et liant approches micro et macro-sociales. Sans ignorer les problèmes de dépendance, les participants ont été encouragés à étudier les marchés, le secteur privé et les flux transnationaux. Cet événement scientifique, rassemblant une vingtaine de chercheurs palestiniens et internationaux ainsi que des acteurs économiques, entend aborder une un large panel de questions en confrontant les points de vue et les expériences. La diversité des analyses permettra sans doute de présenter une analyse nuancée de la complexité de l’économie palestinienne et de ses perspectives. -
