Cet ouvrage vise a questionner les enjeux du developpement durable d’une telle metropole littorale mediterraneenne face au defi du changement climatique. Sur la base des connaissances scientifiques rassemblees au sein du collectif de recherche du Laboratoire d’Excellence OT-Med, cet ouvrage presente, dans une perspective interdisciplinaire, un etat des lieux sur la problematique environnementale de cette metropole afin de repondre au mieux aux interrogations des gestionnaires et decideurs publics. On offre au lecteur une synthese interdisciplinaire de « science locale » mise a la portee de tous : sont examines l’espace urbain, les sols, la biodiversite, la mer et le littoral, l’atmosphere et la climatologie, les risques, les espaces proteges, etc. Reference academique mais aussi passerelle vers la societe, l’economie et la gestion des milieux, ce livre a ete concu pour communiquer les donnees environnementales actuelles qui concernent Marseille au plus grand nombre et dans un langage accessible. Il permet de mieux connaitre les defis actuels poses par le changement climatique, les actions deja realisees ou en cours, et les solutions encore a inventer.

However, it’snot before 2007 that the last pockets of instability in the Pool were suppressed. Since,the country knows a political and securitystabilization. The oil produced revenueallows the State headed by Sassou Nguessoto invest in infrastructures and to developdecentralization. But these only concernthe most strategic regions (Pointe Noire,Brazzaville and its surroundings), whileother regions remain very poorly invested inby the State. International organizations tryto remediate the absence of investment withprograms more or less well-fitted to the localsituations. Finally, there are some abandoned zones that while heavily damaged bythe conflict only improve thanks to the willand creativity of the populations. Only a several years-long field studyallowed to present this first synthesis onpost-conflict situations in the Republic ofCongo Brazzaville.

Yet less attention has been paid to stories of positive change. Alongside reconciliation at a national level, individual stories of resilience have emerged. This contribution aims to move beyond the dominant narratives of the genocide by examining the themes of resilience and post-traumatic growth in the contemporary testimonies of Rwandans.

En 2011, 11 ans apres les accords de cessez-le-feu signees entre les milices regionales et l'armee, le district de Kingoue (departement de la Bouenza) demeure a l'ecart de la reprise economique et subit les repercussions des violences sporadiques du departement voisin du Pool.

The demographic transition has always been the main reason used to explain ageing populations, but it does not account for local dynamics. Spatial dynamics, and particularly migrations, are one of the most important factors which structure ageing at the local scale. This dialectical relation between migration and ageing is also the basis for the reinforcement of territorial imbalance, the increase in poverty rates and the changes in traditional communitarian values. This relation has cultural consequences and also important environmental ones which the political debate does not adequately express. A striking discrepancy still exists today between the profoundly global approach heard in the public discourse on ageing and a more complex local reality which the cultural dimension of public policies fails to address.
