Résumé : Los estudios en terrorismo parecen apuntar al turismo como una industria del lujo y el placer, dos de los valores prohibidos por el Islam. Muchos analistas sugieren que el turismo es una actividad secular que obstruye la vida religiosa, otros sugieren que el lujo desmedido y la ostentación generan un resentimiento precisamente en aquellas poblaciones donde las necesidades básicas no se encuentran satisfechas. Desde otra perspectiva, defendemos la tesis que turismo y terrorismo comparten un origen común, la organización del trabajo en la era industrial. Ni el terrorismo es un fenómeno moderno, ni mucho menos monopolio del Islam. Si por un lado, la lucha sindical devino en un sinnúmero beneficios para la fuerza laboral, beneficios que terminaron masificando a la industria de los viajes, no menos cierto es que por el otro, las demandas sindicales que atentaban contra el aparato productivo capitalista fueron rechazadas y expulsadas hacia las afueras de los contornos de la sociedad. Sin miedo al error, puede afirmarse que el turismo es el terrorismo por otros medios. Desde dentro, la lucha sindical y la huelga fueron los mecanismos legales para lo que fuera de las fronteras fueron denominados actos de terrorismo. A medida que la lógica de producción capitalista comenzó a descentralizarse, y las viejas estructuras de poder fueron recicladas, los blancos de los ataques terroristas dejaron de ser los políticos, o personajes importantes de la cultura, para pasar a ser los turistas. Comprender la función social del lujo es entender la forma en que la organización del trabajo y el terrorismo convergen.
Terrorism-led studies pointed out to tourism as a pleasure industry where visitors experience hedonism and luxury. Many analysts see in tourism a secular activity that intrudes in the religious forms of Middle East, while others signals to the resentment generated by unlimited luxury and ostentation these types of establishment offer. A third view is oriented to discuss a new fresh thesis. We argue that are inextricably intertwined by means of the industrial organization of labor. Nor terrorism is a monopoly of Islam, neither it is a modern phenomenon. If, on one hand, the worker union struggle resulted in a set of monetary and legal benefits for workforce, advantages that led to a mass-tourism, no less truth was that, on another hand, those claims which defied the capitalist order were rejected and expulsed towards the periphery of system. With no fear to any mistake, this validates the idea that tourism is terrorism by other means. Within society, strike and worker union organization served as two legal mechanisms to discipline workers, but beyond the control of society, the same was labeled as terrorism. At time the logic of production was decentralized, as main target of terrorism, politicians and important celebrities set the pace to lay people and tourists. By understanding the role played by luxury at this stage, is a good first step to acknowledge that organization of labor and terrorism converge.

Résumé : International audience
The presence of the frontal gland is well established in termite soldiers of Rhinotermitidae, Serritermitidae, and Termitidae. It is one of their main defensive adaptations or even an exclusive weapon. The gland was also occasionally reported in alate imagoes, but never in the worker caste. Here, we report the first observation of a frontal gland in workers of several Neotropical and one African species of Apicotermitinae. The ultrastructure of Aparatermes cingulatus and Anoplotermes nr. subterraneus is described in detail. In these two species, the gland is well-developed, functional and consists of class 1 secretory cells. The presence of envelope cells, wrapping the gland, is an unusual feature, as well as the presence of several zonulae adherens, connecting neighbouring glandular cells. The frontal gland of workers is homologous to this organ in soldiers and imagoes, as evidenced by the same position in the head and its connection to the same muscle. However, the defensive role of the frontal gland in workers remains to be confirmed.

Résumé : International audience
We conducted a survey along three belt transects located at increasing distances from the coast to determine whether a non-random arboreal ant assemblage, such as an ant mosaic, exists in the rainforest on the Masoala Peninsula, Madagascar. In most tropical rainforests, very populous colonies of territorially dominant arboreal ant species defend absolute territories distributed in a mosaic pattern. Among the 29 ant species recorded, only nine had colonies large enough to be considered potentially territorially dominant; the remaining species had smaller colonies and were considered non-dominant. Nevertheless, the null-model analyses used to examine the spatial structure of their assemblages did not reveal the existence of an ant mosaic. Inland, up to 44% of the trees were devoid of dominant arboreal ants, something not reported in other studies. While two Crematogaster species were not associated with one another, Brachymyrmex cordemoyi was positively associated with Technomyrmex albipes, which is considered an invasive species-a non-indigenous species that has an adverse ecological effect on the habitats it invades. The latter two species and Crematogaster ranavalonae were mutually exclusive. On the other hand, all of the trees in the coastal transect and at least 4 km of coast were occupied by T. albipes, and were interconnected by columns of workers. Technomyrmex albipes workers collected from different trees did not attack each other during confrontation tests, indicating that this species has formed a supercolony along the coast. Yet interspecific aggressiveness did occur between T. albipes and Crematogaster ranavalonae, a native species which is likely territorially dominant based on our intraspecific confrontation tests. These results suggest that the Masoala rainforest is threatened by a potential invasion by T. albipes, and that the penetration of this species further inland might be facilitated by the low density of native, territorially dominant arboreal ants normally able to limit its progression.

Résumé : International audience
Because territoriality is energetically costly, territorial animals frequently respond less aggressively toneighbours than to strangers, a reaction known as the "dear enemy phenomenon" (DEP). The contrary,the "nasty neighbour effect" (NNE), occurs mainly for group-living species defending resource-basedterritories. We studied the relationships between supercolonies of the pest fire ant Solenopsis saevissimaand eight ant species able to live in the vicinity of its nests plus Eciton burchellii, an army ant predatorof other ants. The workers from all of the eight ant species behaved submissively when confrontedwith S. saevissima (dominant) individuals, whereas the contrary was never true. Yet, S. saevissima weresubmissive towards E. burchellii workers. Both DEP and NNE were observed for the eight ant species, withsubmissive behaviours less frequent in the case of DEP. To distinguish what is due to chemical cues fromwhat can be attributed to behaviour, we extracted cuticular compounds from all of the nine ant speciescompared and transferred them onto a number of S. saevissima workers that were then confronted withuntreated conspecifics. The cuticular compounds from three species, particularly E. burchellii, triggeredgreater aggressiveness by S. saevissima workers, while those from the other species did not.

Barbados is known for its traditional homes, “chattel houses,” because they could be disassembled and moved. Originally, these dwellings were built for plantation workers. Later, they were built by freed slaves and sharecroppers, who usually built the dwelling on blocks close to main roads so that they could be easily relocated as many were not landowners but rather tenants. Hallmarks of chattel house construction are steep gable roofs (to deflect wind and rain) and wood panel walls. The wooden jalousie windows on hinges and fretwork around windows offered shade and protection against the rain. Slide labeled Barb 17 typical house.

Résumé : International audience
To study the associations between occupation, industry and prostate cancer risk in Guadeloupe, a high incidence area. Incident cases of prostate cancer (707 cases) and 722 population controls were included. Information on lifetime occupational history and other potential risk factors was collected by interview. Logistic regression was used to estimate adjusted odds-ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI). A significantly decreased risk was observed in farmers (OR=0.5; CI 0.4-0.7), whereas marginally elevated ORs were found for farm workers, especially in sugarcane and banana farming. Banana plantation workers had been exposed to chlordecone, an estrogenic insecticide previously found to be associated with prostate cancer risk in this population. Significantly increased risks of prostate cancer were found in stock clerks (OR=2.7; CI 1.0-7.2), fishermen (OR=2.0; CI 1.0-4.0), mail distribution clerks (OR=7.7; CI 1.7-34.4) and electricians employed for more than 20 years (OR=4.0; CI 1.0-15.8), as well as in public administration (OR=1.8; CI 1.2-2.9), retail trade (OR=2.6; CI 1.1-6.0) and manufacture of food products (OR=2.0; CI 1.1-3.9), particularly sugar (OR=13.2; IC 1.6-108). Non-significantly elevated ORs were also seen for construction workers and transport equipment operators. Although the overall findings suggest that occupational factors have only a limited role in prostate cancer aetiology, elevated risks of prostate cancer were found in several occupations or industries. Exposure to pesticides, solvents, traffic-related air pollution, low physical activity, whole-body vibration may explain some of these increased risks.

Résumé :  
In studying the ant genus Azteca, a Neotropical group of arboreal species, we aimed to determine the extent to which the ants use predation and/or aggressiveness to protect their host plants from defoliating insects. We compared a territorially dominant, carton-nester, Azteca chartifex, and three plant-ant species. Azteca alfari and Azteca ovaticeps are associated with the myrmecophyte Cecropia (Cecropiaceae) and their colonies shelter in its hollow branches; whereas Azteca bequaerti is associated with Tococa guianensis (Melastomataceae) and its colonies shelter in leaf pouches situated at the base of the laminas. Whereas A. bequaerti workers react to the vibrations transmitted by the lamina when an alien insect lands on a leaf making it unnecessary for them to patrol their plant, the workers of the three other species rather discover prey by contact. The workers of all four species use a predatory behaviour involving spread-eagling alien insects after recruiting nestmates at short range, and, in some cases, at long range. Because A. alfari and A. ovaticeps discard part of the insects they kill, we deduced that the workers' predatory behaviour and territorial aggressiveness combine in the biotic defence of their host tree.

Résumé : International audience
Effective and sustainable prevention of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WR-MSDs) remains a challenge for preventers and policy makers. Coordination of stakeholders involved in the prevention of WR-MSDs is a key factor that requires greater reflection on common knowledge and shared representation of workers’ activities among stakeholders. Information on workers’ strategies and operational leeway should be the core of common representations, since it places workers at the center of the “work situation system” considered by the intervention models. Participatory ergonomics permitting debates among stakeholders about workers’ activity and strategies to cope with the work constraints in practice could help them to share representations of the “work situation system” and cooperate. Sharing representation therefore represents a useful tool for prevention, and preventers should provide sufficient space and time for dialogue and discussion of workers’ activities among stakeholders during the conception, implementation and management of integrated prevention programs

Résumé : International audience
Chelonanthus alatus is a bat-pollinated, pioneer Gentianaceae that clusters in patches where still-standing, dried-out stems are interspersed among live individuals. Flowers bear circum-floral nectaries (CFNs) that are attractive to ants, and seed dispersal is both barochorous and anemochorous. Although, in this study, live individuals never sheltered ant colonies, dried-out hollow stems--that can remain standing for 2 years--did. Workers from species nesting in dried-out stems as well as from ground-nesting species exploited the CFNs of live C. alatus individuals in the same patches during the daytime, but were absent at night (when bat pollination occurs) on 60.5% of the plants. By visiting the CFNs, the ants indirectly protect the flowers--but not the plant foliage--from herbivorous insects. We show that this protection is provided mostly by species nesting in dried-out stems, predominantly Pseudomyrmex gracilis. That dried-out stems remain standing for years and are regularly replaced results in an opportunistic, but stable association where colonies are sheltered by one generation of dead C. alatus while the live individuals nearby, belonging to the next generation, provide them with nectar; in turn, the ants protect their flowers from herbivores. We suggest that the investment in wood by C. alatus individuals permitting still-standing, dried-out stems to shelter ant colonies constitutes an extended phenotype because foraging workers protect the flowers of live individuals in the same patch. Also, through this process these dried-out stems indirectly favor the reproduction (and so the fitness) of the next generation including both their own offspring and that of their siblings, all adding up to a potential case of inclusive fitness in plants.

Résumé : International audience
Tourism, Labour, Migration : Relationships and Human Mobility. -- A significant economic reality, the tourism market is at the origin of new and varied migratory paths in an increasingly restrictive international context. Established and emerging tourist destinations provide interesting laboratories in which to analyse the logic of the multiple forms of contemporary mobility. They constitute platforms that receive flows of tourists and workers from which new migratory paths are forged. At the meeting points between various flows, interrelationships, overlappings, and new filiations take shape.

Résumé : International audience
Myrmecophytes offer plant-ants a nesting place in exchange for protection from their enemies, particularly defoliators. These obligate ant-plant mutualisms are common model systems for studying factors that allow horizontally transmitted mutualisms to persist since parasites of ant-myrmecophyte mutualisms exploit the rewards provided by host plants whilst providing no protection in return. In pioneer formations in French Guiana, Azteca alfari and Azteca ovaticeps are known to be mutualists of myrmecophytic Cecropia (Cecropia ants). Here, we show that Azteca andreae, whose colonies build carton nests on myrmecophytic Cecropia, is not a parasite of Azteca-Cecropia mutualisms nor is it a temporary social parasite of A. alfari; it is, however, a temporary social parasite of A. ovaticeps. Contrarily to the two mutualistic Azteca species that are only occasional predators feeding mostly on hemipteran honeydew and food bodies provided by the host trees, A. andreae workers, which also attend hemipterans, do not exploit the food bodies. Rather, they employ an effective hunting technique where the leaf margins are fringed with ambushing workers, waiting for insects to alight. As a result, the host trees' fitness is not affected as A. andreae colonies protect their foliage better than do mutualistic Azteca species resulting in greater fruit production. Yet, contrarily to mutualistic Azteca, when host tree development does not keep pace with colony growth, A. andreae workers forage on surrounding plants; the colonies can even move to a non-Cecropia tree.
