Résumé : In Martinique in the eighteenth century, the "free people of color", both those free by birth and freedmen, black or mixed race, form a legal category, which was distinct from those of whites and slaves. Comparative studies with Spanish or English territories show that no legal regulation formalized a shift - from the category of free colored people to that of White - in the French colonies between the late seventeenth century and the French Revolution. Also, this thesis proposes to show the informal process that enabled some people - the "assimilated" - to cross the color barrier. I analysed the color prejudice, a racist system, whose ideology, supported by local regulations, legitimized the collective construction of a public and social order. In a second step, I examined the development of the color bar. The free colored people were the first to bear the brunt of the impermeability of the demarcation line and of the problems posed by the purity of blood; but some whites, through interracial unions, and Native Americans have also been targeted. Finally I thought about what made the whiteness, and the strategies to achieve whiteness, change in status. Notarial acts and 33,000 acts of parish registers treaties led to the reconstitution of genealogies, in order to examine individuals and families over generations; I observed the importance of the phenotype, whitening, legitimacy relations, privileged partners, choice of networks, wealth levels and the use of space.
À la Martinique au XVIIIe siècle, les « libres de couleur », qu’ils soient nés libres ou affranchis, noirs ou métis, forment une catégorie juridique distincte des Blancs et des esclaves. L’étude comparée, avec les territoires espagnols ou anglais, montre qu’aucune réglementation légale n’a officialisé un passage de la catégorie Libre de couleur à celle de Blanc dans les colonies françaises de la fin du XVIIe siècle à la Révolution française. Aussi, cette thèse se propose de montrer les processus officieux qui ont permis à certaines personnes – les « assimilés » – de franchir la barrière de couleur. Une réflexion a été menée sur le préjugé de couleur, système raciste dont l’idéologie, soutenue par la réglementation locale, a légitimé la construction collective d’un ordre public et social. Puis, on a examiné l’élaboration de la barrière de couleur. Les libres de couleur ont été les premiers à faire les frais de l’imperméabilisation de la ligne de démarcation et des problèmes posés par la pureté de sang ; mais les Blancs mésalliés, dans le cadre d’unions interraciales, et les Amérindiens ont aussi été visés. Enfin nous avons réfléchi à ce qui faisait la blancheur et aux stratégies adoptées pour réussir ce changement de statut. Le notariat et les 33 000 actes des registres paroissiaux traités ont donné lieu à la reconstitution de généalogies pour examiner des individus et des familles sur plusieurs générations ; on a ainsi observé l’importance du phénotype, le blanchiment, la légitimité des relations, les conjoints privilégiés, le choix des réseaux, les niveaux de fortune et l’usage de l’espace.

Résumé : This thesis falls within the scope of social and human geography and more exactly of« disability studies ». Understanding the disability like a « social object », the thesis analyzes the societal consideration of disabled people in non-urbanized areas with a high issue of touristic, recreational and patrimonial development. In the first place, it's the recent construction of disability as a social object that is discussed by reminding the history of the societal consideration of the disabled person in our occidental world. The French model and his fundamental rule of global accessibility for ail the domains of the social life are explained and the « Nature and Disability » thematic is more precisely analyzed as a development of an active living ideal for people who are in a disability situation. Secondly, the thesis develops this thematic on the particular field of the Reunion Island and tries to answer to a question which is both simple and complicated: « Today, how we live with a disability on the Reunion Island? ». ln a last time and on the basis of this study of the disability inside a Reunion Island society with accelerated transformations, the thesis specifies the current tendencies with the emergence of new public policies for the welcome of disabled people on natural and touristic areas of the island. To conclude and referring to an original survey, the thesis suggests some tools of evaluation and decision-making aids to these areas.
Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le champ de la géographie humaine et sociale et plus précisément dans celui des « disability studies ». En positionnant le handicap comme une « figure du social », la thèse analyse la prise en compte sociétale des personnes à mobilité réduite (PMR) dans des environnements non urbanisés, à très fort enjeu de développement touristique, récréatif et patrimonial. Dans un premier temps, c'est la construction récente du handicap en tant que figure du social qui est abordée, en rappelant l'historique de la considération de la personne handicapée dans nos sociétés occidentales. Le modèle français et son principe fondamental d'accessibilité généralisée à tous les domaines de la vie sociale sont détaillés et la thématique « Nature et Handicap » est analysée plus précisément, en tant que développement d'un idéal de vie active pour les personnes en situation de handicap. Dans un second temps, la thèse développe cette thématique sur le terrain particulier de l'Île de La Réunion et tente de répondre à une question à la fois simple et complexe : « comment vit-on avec une déficience aujourd'hui à La Réunion ? ». Dans un dernier temps et sur la base de cette analyse du handicap au sein d'une société réunionnaise aux mutations accélérées, la thèse précise les tendances actuelles avec l'apparition de nouvelles politiques publiques d'accueil des PMR dans les espaces naturels et touristiques de l'île. S'appuyant sur une enquête originale, la thèse propose enfin des outils d'évaluation et d'aide à la décision spécifiques à ces espaces.

Résumé : International audience
L'histoire des relations entre les Français et les Caraïbes s'inscrit dans ce cadre conceptuel construit par les Espagnols aux premiers moments du contact. Cependant, contrairement à ces derniers qui ne feront toujours qu'y passer, les autres nations européennes, au premier rang desquelles les royaumes de France et d'Angleterre, vont entreprendre la colonisation des Petites Antilles et ainsi établir un contact certes plus tardif mais surtout beaucoup plus étroits avec les Caraïbes. Or, dans ce jeu à trois auquel vont se livrer pendant plus de deux siècles, Anglais, Français et Caraïbes, les deux derniers acteurs semblent avoir développé une proximité dont pour l'essentiel les Anglais ont été exclus . Quelles en ont été les manifestations ? Et, surtout, quels en ont été les mécanismes ? Plutôt qu'un recours certes aisé mais ô combien dangereux à la notion difficilement objectivable de "l'esprit d'une nation", une approche chronologique fine des relations franco-caraïbes nous semble être la seule voie possible pour tenter de répondre à ces questions. Elle devrait nous permettre de dégager le caractère spécifique de ce contact et d'en cerner certaines des raisons.

Résumé : Small-scale fisheries have traditionally received less research effort than large-scale fisheries and are generally under-studied in Europe. In spite of their comparatively low volume of catches and economic importance, small-scale fisheries are socially important and an integral part of the European coastal zone. Considering the high heterogeneity of situations and the paucity of quantitative data, we used an analytical methodology based on the comparative method. We carried out an analysis of small-scale fisheries (SSFs) in Europe based on a selection of nine case studies. Our objective was to obtain a comprehensive description of small-scale fleets covering different areas/fisheries/species, encompassing the diversity and specific conditions under which SSFs operate, in order to demonstrate the ecological and social sustainability of this often overlooked fisheries segment. A common approach formulated so that the case studies could be compared with the case histories of other competing users, required that for each set of criteria – technical, biological, socio-economic, and institutional – a set of relevant items and indicators was established. An analysis of characteristics common to the selected case studies is conducted and an attempt made to extend our comparisons to the whole of the European Union. Our results show that (as compared with large-scale fleets, their main competitor) small-scale fleets: (i) are composed of smaller vessels and, consequently, travel lower distances to fishing grounds, and are more reliant on coastal areas; (ii) have smaller crews (although the global employment figure is similar to that of large-scale fleets in Europe); (iii) use mostly, but not exclusively, passive gears; (iv) use multi-purpose fishing approaches, and can change the fish species they target during the year; (v) have lower extraction rates; (vi) have lower total capital investments (including fishing rights), turnover and costs; and (vii) have lower fuel consumption, making them less sensitive to changing oil prices. Dependence on subsidies is lower (viii). Involvement in fisheries management is variable, conservation and access regulation measures are largely local in origin. For the selected case studies, the most significant competitors are large-scale fleets, and recreational fisheries, but other sources of interaction (water quality, invasive species, etc.) cannot be ignored.

Résumé : International audience
Is it possible to construct a history of France’s ‘colonial exhibitions’ without mentioning those organized in the Nineteenth Century at Bordeaux, Nantes, Metz, Le Havre, Lyon, Rochefort, Cherbourg, Beauvais, Nice, Montauban, Rouen and Tours? By studying the scenography of these little-known provincial exhibitions, this paper seeks, firstly, to understand the economic, political and especially symbolic issues for these towns (especially the ports) around the construction of their colonial identities; secondly, it wants to determine the role of the State in the dissemination and gradual popularization of a unified national discourse.
