  Small farmers in mountainous and forested hinterlands

  Contexts, constraints and strategies

  For centuries, small farmers (SFs) have made their living in the mountainous and forested areas of the Mediterranean hinterland, away from centres of power. These places have historically been places of refuge for the populations driven out from the plains. Nowadays, the SFs in the mountains and the forests, which have become more mixed and gradually more part of national entities, are paradoxically suffering from geographical remoteness and economic and social marginality. And yet, beyond the physical and the cultural environments’ diversity and the relationships forged with the urbanised foreland, these same communities are developing adaptive practices on the basis of specific features that continue to be sensitive to various kinds of risk and uncertainty that public policy is unable to diminish.

  Cette journée d’études propose d’examiner la production d’images fixes et en mouvement de la ruralité paysanne et de l’indianité de l’Amérique latine, région dans laquelle deux sociétés-mémoires (Pierre Nora), paysanne et indienne, sont menacées non seulement dans leur existence mais aussi dans les représentations qu’elles se font d’elles-mêmes (George Didi-Huberman).
