Résumé : Au Belize, le projet de construction d’une nouvelle capitale apparait au début des années 1960, juste après la tragédie de l’ouragan Hattie (octobre 1961) qui a détruit une grande partie de la capitale coloniale, Belize City. Belmopan, située au centre géographique du Belize, devait être le nouveau visage moderne du pays, le symbole d’une jeune nation sur le chemin de son indépendance (1981), la garantie d’une société mieux intégrée en termes territoriaux et de population, le fer de lance du développement économique du pays. Néanmoins, depuis sa naissance, la ville peine à se développer et se peupler et Belize City, sur la côte Caraïbe, continue à jouer le rôle de capitale non officielle du pays. L’histoire de Belmopan, de sa planification initiale à sa croissance actuelle, me permettra d’interroger la difficile émergence d’une nation indépendante, dont le double ancrage caribéen et centre-américain se superpose à une ethnicisation de la société.
In Belize, the project to build of a new capital appeared at the beginning of the 1960s, just after the tragedy of hurricane Hattie (October 1961), which destroyed a large part of the colonial capital, Belize City. Belmopan, located at the geographical center of Belize, should become the new modern face of the country, the symbol of a young nation on its way to independence (1981), the guarantee of a better territorial and demographic integrated society, the spearhead of the economic development of the country. Nevertheless, since its birth, the city has failed to expand and Belize City, on the Caribbean coast, is still the non-official capital of the country. The history of Belmopan, from its initial planning to its current growth, will give me the opportunity to question the difficult emergence of an independent nation, whose double Caribbean and Central-American belonging produces the ethnicization of the society.

Description : Antarctica is a continent of enigmas. Stunning geographic beauty belies its inhospitable climate. Covered a mile thick in ice, it is the world's largest desert. Fossil ferns found in its mountains speak of its prehistory as a tropical rainforest, but now is largely devoid of life. Its most famous inhabitant, the penguin, is thought of as a flightless bird, but soars underwater much as a falcon glides the sky. Perhaps one of the greatest enigmas is the contrast between the terrestrial and marine environments. On land, monochromatic snow and ice support little life, yet the sea teams with life, life that expresses itself with the full rainbow of colors. Color is but one manifestation of chemical ecology. The Antarctic benthos supports an extensive community of predators and prey, competitors and facilitators. A harsh geographic history has contributed to marine diversification and enhanced what we now recognize as a rich flora and fauna, commensurate in some instances with temperate kelp forests and even approaching the richness of tropical marine environments. Not surprisingly, Antarctic benthic ecology is highly dependent on chemical mediation of interspecific interactions, interweaving chemodiversity with biodiversity in a classical yin and yang feedback loop. The evolution of selective chemical defenses facilitates drug discovery research, producing suites of metabolites that inform structure-activity studies and add breadth to bioactivity profiles. This presentation will focus on recent and contextual research from our lab which has demonstrated the potential for new biomedical lead molecules and scaffolds from these difficult to access biological resources.

Résumé : International audience
A multiproxy analysis of lacustrine sediments cored in Grand-Case Pond at Saint-Martin, north of the Lesser Antilles archipelago, reveals three distinct climatic periods for the last 3700 years. From 3700 to ~2500 yr cal. BP and from 1150 yr cal. BP to the present, carbonate mud deposition occurred in connection with pond lowstands. These periods were also punctuated by severe drought events, marked by gypsum laminae, and hurricane landfalls, leading to marine sand inputs into the pond. The intermediate time interval, from 2500 to 1150 yr cal. BP, is typified by black organic mud deposition, suggesting that hypoxic to anoxic conditions prevailed at the pond bottom. These were probably linked with a perennial pond highstand and reflect more uniform and wetter climatic conditions than today. The carbon isotopic composition of the ostracod Perissocytheridea bisulcata shows that the lowest δ13C values are recorded during the hypoxic periods, as a consequence of bacterial recycling of isotopically depleted organic matter. Such a climatic history agrees closely with that documented from other records in the Caribbean area, such as the Cariaco Basin, central coast of Belize or Barbados. By constrast, discrepancies seem to emerge from the comparison between hurricane activity recorded at Saint-Martin on the one hand and Vieques (Puerto Rico) on the other hand. We explain this apparent contradiction by a balance between two distinct storm paths in response to latitudinal shifts of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Stronger storm activity over the Gulf coast and the inner Caribbean Sea is favoured by a southern position of the ITCZ in connection with dry climatic conditions. Plausible links with the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) are also suggested.

Résumé : The slides were taken on collecting trips sponsored by the William L. Bryant Foundation, where books, music and art indigenous to the regions were gathered. The are organized by geographical location.
It is located in the Plaza de la Catedral, in Old Havana and known in Spanish as la Catedral de San Cristóbal. Construction on the cathedral began in 1748 by the Jesuits, and was completed 29 years later by the Franciscans. The architectural style is known as "Cuban Baroque" and includes two large bell towers and many inlaid columns. Today it is a major tourist attraction in Havana.

Résumé : Kalinago (Carib) Indians migrated from South America into the Windward Islands beginning about 1400. They resisted the Europeans, and eventually retreated to the more mountainous parts of St. Vincent and Dominica, where they inter-married with escaped African slaves. In 1796 the British deported the St. Vincent Kalinago (about 5,000) to the island of Ruatan off Honduras. From there, they moved into present-day Belize, where their descendants live today. Descendants of the Dominica Kalinago still live on Dominica. This print portrays a number of their customs.

Résumé : International audience
Suriname is the smallest country in South America. However, in regional academic literature, it has been repeatedly considered one of the largest Caribbean territories for many years (Best 1967; Granger 2008). This territory is generally included in the socio-historical group of the three Guianas (Lézy 2000), or the bio-geographical group of the Guiana Plateau. Additionally, Suriname is frequently considered part of the insular Caribbean (Girvan 2005). The latter consideration implies a geographical paradox that is twofold. In fact, Suriname, French Guiana and Guyana are not directly bordered by the Caribbean Sea. Moreover, like Belize, which is also commonly included in the Caribbean island group, Suriname is not an island in the strict sense of the word, i.e. land surrounded by water, based on the restricted definition of the term. Nevertheless, the Caribbean cannot be defined today on the sole basis of a deterministic relationship with the sea bearing the same name. Further, research conducted on insularity increasingly demonstrates the limitations of the physical nature of the island, in favour of feelings of belonging, alienation, etc. (Taglioni 2003).
