    Municipalisation and urban management in Mozambique

    Le Mozambique est encore très largement géré par l'administration de l'État central: il n'y a que 58 municipalités, toutes urbaines. La questionne est donc très politique, puisque toute avancée de la municipalisation permet à l'opposition d'acquérir plus de poids, même si le parti au pouvoir garde le contrôle sur la majorité d'entre elles. Ce colloque international aura lieu une dizaine de jours après la tenue des élections municipales d'octobre 2018, qui seront un test grandeur nature pour les élections présidentielles et législatives de l'année suivante...

    Environmental bodies - communities, practices and institutions

    Historical approaches in France and the French colonial empire, 17th-20th centuries

    Les communs environnementaux sont les formes d’organisation grâce auxquelles les communautés gouvernent leurs environnements et leurs ressources via des formes de propriété collective : pâturages et forêts, zones humides et landes, cours d’eau et systèmes irrigués, champs et jardins, pêcheries, estrans, gisements de matériaux et de combustibles... Ces systèmes sont gérés par leurs ayant-droit, et mêlent souvent propriété pleinement commune et droits d’usage collectifs.

    Canadian Studies Review n°78 (June 2015)

    This special issue of Etudes Canadiennes/Canadian Studies intends to explore what’s new in Canada, nine years after the coming to power of the Conservatives, four years after Stephen Harper won the election that gave him a majority government, and at a time when Canada is getting ready for the next federal election. While the contributions are expected to focus on the Conservative initiatives to shape this new Canada, they will also be encouraged to compare them with other societal and global factors that may contribute to a changing Canada.
