Résumé : The Late Early-to-Early Middle Eocene Zegdoumyidae are the oldest representatives of the order Rodentia to be known in Africa thus far. Despite the fragmentary nature of their fossil record, these early African rodents have been central in discussions surrounding the early evolutionary history of the Anomaluroidea clade (the living forms of which are the ‘scaly-tailed squirrels’, i.e. Anomaluridae). Here, we describe new dental remains attributable to Zegdoumys sbeitlai, a zegdoumyid from Tunisia (Djebel Chambi, CBI-1) dated at ca 50–45 Ma. The original material referred to this taxon was limited to four teeth documenting few dental loci. The new gathered material comprises practically all dental loci (except P4), thereby allowing a better description and characterization of this taxon. This Tunisian species is clearly distinct from its roughly coeval Algerian counterpart (Z. lavocati) or from the younger species recorded from Namibia (Z. namibiensis). We investigated the phylogenetic positions of Z. sbeitlai and the Zegdoumyidae in a high-level rodent phylogeny with a cladistic assessment of the dental evidence. Our results show that zegdoumyids represent the earliest offshoots (pectinately arranged) of a large clade that also encompasses the more advanced Eocene anomaluroids (here named Nementchamyidae), the Miocene Nonanomaluridae, and the stem and crown Anomaluridae. In this phylogenetic context, the species of Zegdoumys are the basalmost members of this large Anomaluroidea clade. Zegdoumyid taxa are therefore the oldest stem anomaluroid candidates, a statement which strengthens support for the hypothesis of the great antiquity of the Anomaluroidea clade in Africa. From a historical biogeography perspective, this assumption suggests that anomaluroids invaded Asia from Afro-Arabia sometime during the Middle Eocene, a dispersal event which was likely concomitant but opposite to the dispersals envisaged for the hystricognathous rodents and anthropoid primates from Asia to Afro-Arabia.

Résumé : International audience
The deeply branching Deinococcus-Thermus lineage is recognized as one of the most extremophilic phylum of bacteria. In previous studies, the presence of Deinococcus-related bacteria in the hot arid Tunisian desert of Tataouine was demonstrated through combined molecular and culture-based approaches. Similarly , Thermus-related bacteria have been detected in Tunisian geothermal springs. The present work was conducted to explore the molecular diversity within the Deinococcus-Thermus phylum in these extreme environments. A set of specific primers was designed in silico on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, validated for the specific detection of reference strains, and used for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of metagenomic DNA retrieved from the Tataouine desert sand and Tunisian hot spring water samples. These analyses have revealed the presence of previously undescribed Deino-coccus-Thermus bacterial sequences within these extreme environments. The primers designed in this study thus represent a powerful tool for the rapid detection of Deinococcus-Thermus in environmental samples and could also be applicable to clarify the biogeography of the Deinococcus-Thermus phylum.

Résumé : International audience
The marine Messinian deposits of Tunisia cover a narrow littoral strip some 300 km long between the northern Bizerte and Cap Bon areas and the central-eastern Sahel region. Litho- and biofacies analysis of six stratigraphic sections reveals the distinctive features of these deposits.;The lower Messinian deposits are characterized by ubiquitous siliciclastics and abundant oolitic/bioclastic limestones organized in an eastward facing ramp. Westward (landward), this ramp changes into coastal lagoons, sometimes containing evaporites. Eastward, the ramp passes to the reefal Pelagian Platform extending as far as Lampedusa.;Two main sedimentary cycles are distinguished: 1) an early Messinian siliciclastic retrogradational then oolitic/bioclastic progradational cycle (Beni Khiar Formation and lower Oued bel Khedim Formation): 2) a late Messinian brackish to continental cycle that probably accumulated in rapidly subsiding lagoons (Cued el Bir Formation and upper Oued bel Khedim Formation). The Tunisian early Messinian cycle is partly eustatically controlled, but the late Messinian cycle cannot be confidently correlated to other well-known Messinian series because of tectonic movements.;The lower Messinian deposits of Tunisia are also characterized by abundant suspension-feeding organisms (molluscs and bryozoans) and rare corals, calcareous algae, echinoids, and larger benthic foraminifers. The proposed palaeoenvironmental model shows that the lower Messinian ramp of Tunisia was located on a current-protected margin and subjected to continent-derived sediment and nutrient supply. Eastward, nutrient influx diminished and a shallow-water isolated carbonate platform with coralgal facies developed between the western and the eastern Mediterranean basins. The main hydrological connection between these two basins occurred through a narrow seaway situated to the northeast of the Pelagian Platform, south of Sicily and Malta.

Résumé : International audience
The emergent domain known as “Kasserine Island” in central Tunisia, to the West of the North–South Axis, was emerging during the Turonian. This area has undergone several changes during the Cretaceous–Eocene period. In the present study, the compilation of surface and sub-surface data provided new information about the boundaries variations of the emerged domain. The analysis of paleogeographic maps allowed the identification of three distinct stages of evolution. The first stage extents from the Middle Turonian to the Lower Maastrichtian where the emergent domain covers the area extending from Jebels Selloum-Sidi Aich in the West to Jebel Bouhedma in the East. The boundaries of this area coincide with the E–W Kasserine fault to the North, the N–S Lessouda-Boudinar fault in the East and the N 120 el Mech-Souinia flexure at the South. This emersion contemporaneous with a high eustatic level is most likely related to tectonic activity. The extensional tectonic regime that is characterized by a NE–SW minimal horizontal stress, has reactivated border faults with a normal component. The interference of the tilting of these border faults was at the origin of the emergence of this domain. The ascent of the Triassic salt may also have contributed in this uplift.In the second stage, the emerged domain has reached its maximum expansion to the North, the West and the South during the Middle Maastrichtian–Paleocene period. Its northern limit is irregular, while the southern limit coincides with the N120 Gafsa fault and the E–W fault of Jebels Orbata-Bouhedma. The N–S Lessouda-Boudinar fault forms the eastern limit. This expansion is mostly related to the global eustatic fall that is well characterized during this period, and partly to the compressive tectonic activity.The Lower Eocene is characterized by a marine transgression that has interested the northern edge of the Island, where the Ypresian deposits are discordant on older series. This edge was irregular and marked by the Gulf of Sbiba. The eastern, the southern, and the western boundaries kept the same shape as that of the previous stage. The compressive tectonic regime, characterized by a NW–SE maximum horizontal stress, is accentuated. This constraint state has generated NE–SW folds and NW–SE grabens. Some of these structures allowed the accumulation of a thick phosphate deposits at their edges, and continental deposits in the emerged area.During the Middle to Upper Eocene, the emergent area narrowed further at the North. The deposits are transgressive and discordant on older series. The Other limits always coincide with the Gafsa fault, the Jebels Orbata-Bouhedma and Jebels Lessouda-Boudinar faults. This period is characterized by the filling of the Gafsa basin by evaporate deposits before its emergence in the Oligocene. As a result, the southern-central Tunisia emerged as one area.

Résumé : International audience
Pollen and clay mineralogical analyses of a Holocene sequence from Sebkha Boujmel (southern Tunisia) traces the climatic and environmental dynamics in the lower arid bioclimatic zone over the last 8000 years. During the Mid- to Late Holocene transition, between 8 and 3 ka, a succession of five wet/dry oscillations is recorded. An intense arid event occurs between 5.7 and 4.6 ka. This episode marks the onset of a long-term aridification trend with a progressive retreat of Mediterranean woody xerophytic vegetation and of grass steppes. It ends with the establishment of pre-desert ecosystems around 3 ka. The millennial-scale climate change recorded in the data from Sebkha Boujmel is consistent with records from the south and east Mediterranean, as well as with climatic records from the desert region for the end of the African Humid Period (AHP). Eight centennial climatic events are recorded at Sebkha Boujmel and these are contemporary with those recorded in the Mediterranean and in the Sahara. They indicate a clear coupling between the southern Mediterranean and the Sahara before 3 ka. The event at 4.2 ka is not evidenced and the link between events recorded in Sebkha Boujmel and the North Atlantic Cooling events is clearer from 3 ka onwards. These variations indicate the importance of climatic determinism in the structuring of landscapes, with the establishment of the arid climatic conditions of the Late Holocene. It is only from 3 ka onwards that the dynamic of plant associations is modified by both human activity and climatic variability. The climatic episodes identified during the historic period indicate strong regionalisation related to the differential impact of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the Mediterranean Oscillation (MO) on the Mediterranean basin. The local human impact on regional ecosystems is recorded in the form of episodes of intensification of pastoral and/or agricultural activities. The development of olive production and of several taxa associated with agriculture attest to increasing sedentism among human populations during Classical Antiquity. The significant increase in Artemisia (wormwood) between 1.1 and 0.8 ka (850–1150 AD) is linked to intensive pastoral activity, associated with heightened interannual and/or seasonal climatic instability. A complete re-shaping of the landscape is recorded during the 20th century. The remarkable expansion of the olive tree, and the deterioration of regional ecosystems with the spread of desert species, is linked to recent local socio-economic changes in Tunisia.

Résumé : International audience
The aim of this study was to measure the heart rate (HR) response of eight elite water polo players during the four 7-min quarters of the game and to check for relationships with the physiological parameters of performance ( ·VO2max, Th1vent, Th2vent). Each athlete performed a ·VO2max treadmill test and played a water polo game wearing a heart rate monitor. The game fatigue index was calculated as the ratio of the fourth-quarter HR to the first-quarter HR: HR4/HR1. The results showed a slight decrease in fourth-quarter HR compared with the first quarter, with the mean four-quarter HR equal to 79.9 ± 4.2% of HRmax. Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed ·VO2max to be the main explanatory factor of game intensity, i.e. game HR expressed in %HRreserve (R=0.88, P<0.01). We observed that higher aerobic capacity resulted in higher game intensity. We also observed a decrease in the playing intensity in the fourth quarter compared with the first, likely due to very high game involvement. We concluded that high aerobic capacity seems necessary to ensure high game intensity in water polo. This suggests that coaches should encourage their athletes to reach a minimum level of ·VO2max and that HR monitoring could be of great interest in the control of water polo training sessions.

Résumé : International audience
Climate models project that rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations will increase the frequency and the severity of some extreme weather events. The flood events represent a major risk for populations and infrastructures settled on coastal lowlands. Recent studies of lagoon sediments have enhanced our knowledge on extreme hydrological events such as palaeo-storms and on their relation with climate change over the last millennium. However, few studies have been undertaken to reconstruct past flood events from lagoon sediments. Here, the past flood activity was investigated using a multi-proxy approach combining sedimentological and geochemical analysis of surfaces sediments from a southeastern Tunisian catchment in order to trace the origin of sediment deposits in the El Bibane Lagoon. Three sediment sources were identified: marine, fluvial and aeolian. When applying this multi-proxy approach on core BL12-10, recovered from the El Bibane Lagoon, we can see that finer material, a high content of the clay and silt, and a high content of the elemental ratios (Fe ∕ Ca and Ti ∕ Ca) characterise the sedimentological signature of the palaeo-flood levels identified in the lagoonal sequence. For the last century, which is the period covered by the BL12-10 short core, three palaeo-flood events were identified. The age of these flood events have been determined by 210Pb and 137Cs chronology and give ages of AD 1995 ± 6, 1970 ± 9 and 1945 ± 9. These results show a good temporal correlation with historical flood events recorded in southern Tunisia in the last century (AD 1932, 1969, 1979 and 1995). Our finding suggests that reconstruction of the history of the hydrological extreme events during the upper Holocene is possible in this location through the use of the sedimentary archives.

Résumé : Serial seismic reflection profiles off Tunisia and between Sardinia and Tunisia are presented. Interpretation is given which includes paleozoïc basement and its autochtonous (Eocene and plio-quaternary) and allochtonous (Numidian nappe) cover. Recent tectonic activity is discussed, (Plio-quaternary foundered basins, 'flexure', local uplifts, intrusions). Then the nature of the basement of the Sardinia-Tunisia zone is discussed with respect to the various hypotheses on the region of the Western Mediterranean. [NOT CONTROLLED OCR]

Nous discutons ensuite des manifestations néotectoniques (bassins d'effondrements plio-quaternaires - mouvement de flexure - surrections locales - venues intrusives). Enfin la nature du substratum du détroit sardano-tunisien est discutée en liaison avec les hypothèses dynamiques et statiques relatives à la formation de la Méditerranée occidentale.

Résumé : International audience
Dental and postcranial remains (an atlas, carpus and metacarpus elements, and a part of the pelvic girdle) of an embrithopod mammal are described from Bir Om Ali, Tunisia, a new late Eocene locality. The enamel microstructure of a tooth fragment found in association shows 'arsinoitheriid radial enamel', an enamel condition which is characteristic of Arsinoitherium (Arsinoitheriidae, Embrithopoda). Although the postcranial elements slightly differ in size and morphology from those of Arsinoitherium zitteli (late Eocene to early Oligocene), we tentatively refer this new Eocene Tunisian material to that genus. These fossils represent the first known embrithopod from the Eocene of Tunisia.

Résumé : The Mediterranean small-scale fleet is highly adaptive, showing a dynamic fishing intensity and strategy, and exploiting seasonal abundant resources. In this area, the aggregatory behaviour under floats of juvenile fish has been used since ancient times to exploit oceanic migratory species such as dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus), using Fish Aggregating anchored Devices (fads). A total of 2 300 boats are engaged in this fishery from August to December, the main fishing areas being those around Malta, Tunisia, Sicily and Majorca. The fads ( arrow right m2) are made of different cheap floating materials, and are moored in fixed places, ranging from shore waters to areas 60 miles off the coast (1 500 m depth). Each boat deploys an average of 20 to 100 fads. The gears used are special surrounding nets without purse line, and traditional purse seine nets. The fishery exploits young-of-the-year dolphinfish (<6 months old), originated by a pre-spawning migration of adults from Atlantic waters. Their catches show high annual and monthly variability, depending on the recruitment and the accessibility of recruits to the fishery. Pilotfish (Naucrates ductor) and greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili) are also exploited in this fishery as by-catch. A total of about 1 000 metric tons of dolphinfish are yearly caught mainly in September-October. The fads are historically laid in August. Recently, the fads fishing period has increased in Sicily, and the fads are laid in July, so as to catch pilotfish and greater amberjak juveniles. In recent years, the interest for this fishing method and the study of these fisheries has increased in the Mediterranean. Though the market and its seasonality limit this exploitation, this fishery is economically profitable with good revenue.

It is now well recognized that information management systems often deal with geographic information even if they often do not take advantage of it. In these systems, requirements engineering (RE) is becoming more and more important in helping stakeholders to model their requirements regarding the quality of the data.However, to date, few RE projects take geographic information and geographic constraints into account. We thus propose to study in this paper the question of managing such geographic constraints in the framework of RE. We propose an extension of the RE model and its implementation within the KAOS framework, and the use of geographic ontologies

Résumé : International audience
Miocene (17-11 Ma) magmatic activity in the Kabylies emplaced K-rich (and minor medium-K) calc-alkaline plutonic and volcanic rocks in five zones, delineating a ∼450 km long EW trending strip located along the northern coast of Algeria, between Annaba and Algiers. Their most likely source is the Kabylian subcontinental lithospheric mantle previously metasomatized during the Paleogene subduction of the Tethys oceanic lithosphere. Our preferred tectono-magmatic model involves a Tethyan slab detachment combined with African mantle delamination and crustal stacking, leading to the superimposition of the African continental crust over the Kabylian metasomatized lithospheric mantle. At ca. 17 Ma, the asthenospheric upwelling arising from lithospheric delamination and Tethyan slab tear triggered the thermal erosion of the latter mantle, inducing its partial melting. The corresponding mafic medium-K calc-alkaline magmas interacted with the African basement units during their ascent, generating intermediate to felsic K-rich calc-alkaline melts that display a characteristic trace element and isotopic crustal signature. Later on, slab tears propagated eastward and westward, promoting slab rollback perpendicular to plate convergence and inducing the emplacement of magmatic rocks of decreasing ages from central-eastern Algeria towards Tunisia and Morocco.

Résumé : Le tourisme balnéaire joue un rôle fondamental dans le développement économique des pays des deux rives du bassin méditerranéen. Climat tempéré, plages sablonneuses et beauté du paysage naturel côtier représentent le support à cette nouvelle activité. Si dans beaucoup de pays, comme l’Espagne, le Maroc, la Tunisie, la France, etc., une large surface du littoral est mise en tourisme, les aménagements touristiques restent en Algérie très ponctuels et en décalage avec la demande réelle de la population. La volonté de l’Etat algérien de faire du tourisme balnéaire une activité génératrice de richesse dans l’objectif d’atténuer la dépendance de l’économie au secteur des hydrocarbures, rencontre beaucoup de difficultés telles la question des enjeux fonciers et les dysfonctionnements entre les outils d’aménagement et ceux de protection de la nature. Dans cet article, l’objectif est, à travers le cas du littoral mostaganemois, d’analyser l’évolution des dispositions institutionnelles en matière du tourisme balnéaire et de leurs mises en œuvre sur le terrain toute en analysant les spécificités du contexte socioéconomique et naturel à une échelle locale.
The seaside tourism plays a fundamental role in the economic development of the Mediterranean countries. Temperate climate, sandy beaches and natural coastal landscape are the support to this new activity. If in many countries such as Spain, Morocco, Tunisia and France, etc., the tourism development is diffused over a wide area of the coast, it remains very limited phenomenon in Algeria and out of step with real request of the population. The will of the Algerian state to make of the seaside tourism a generative financial activity with the objective to limit the dependence of the energy income, faced many difficulties such land issues and dysfunctions between development tools and those of nature protection.In this article, the objective is, through the case of the Mostaganem coast, to discuss the evolution of the institutional capacities regarding the seaside tourism and his implementation on the ground while analyzing the specifities of socioeconomic and natural context in a local scale.

As part of an inventory of Carabidae from Tunisia many field surveys were conducted specifically targeting endogean and hypogean environments. This work led to the discovery of two new endemic Trechus species belonging to the species-complex of Trechus fulvus Dejean, 1831. Characters of these species are related to the group of Trechus lallemantii Fairmaire, 1859 that we redefine on the basis of a set of morphological characters.

Contextualisation socio-didactique : une question d'échelles Marie-Paule Poggi, CRREF (EA 4538), Université des Antilles Résumé Cette présentation vise à mettre en dialogue perspectives sociologique et didactique. Nous proposons de croiser ces deux approches pour étudier les pratiques du professeur d'EPS afin de décrire et comprendre de quelle manière s'entrecroisent différentes strates contextuelles au sein même de la situation de classe. Nous nous intéressons aux façons dont les enseignants eux-mêmes mobilisent ces différentes strates contextuelles. Il s'agit d'observer de quelle manière et selon quels processus de contextualisation socio-didactiques l'enseignant crée les conditions pour que les dispositifs construits proposés puissent « faire milieu ». Les recherches en cours, notamment celles développées en milieu difficile, nous ont conduit à opérer une partition entre quatre type de variables renvoyant à quatre échelles de contexte : des variables dispositionnelles, contextuelles, situationnelles et subjectives, mobilisées dans les actes et les discours. Mettre en dialogue sociologie et didactique Les travaux rapprochant didactique et sociologie se sont multipliés. Les récentes publications (Rochex et Crinon, 2011 ; Rayou, 2014), les manifestations scientifiques (colloque de Lausanne, 2012) ou les structures de recherche (réseau RESEIDA, 2005) témoignent de cet intérêt pour des études mettant en tension concepts et méthodologies issus des didactiques et des sociologies. La piste ouverte vise à conjuguer déterminants internes et externes pour comprendre les pratiques d'enseignement, en s'intéressant spécifiquement à la nature des savoirs scolaires transmis sans ignorer les conditions sociales de leur production (Rochex et Crinon, 2011). Nos recherches s'inscrivent dans ce projet de mettre en dialogue perspectives sociologique et didactique. L'approche socio-didactique que nous défendons s'appuie sur deux principes : d'une part, toute pratique didactique devrait être pensée selon le contexte social qui la constitue et qu'elle contribue à façonner en retour (Blanchet, 2009) ; d'autre part, tenir compte des conditions sociales de production des savoirs scolaires n'interdit pas de s'intéresser aux modalités effectives des pratiques de transmission et d'appropriation des savoirs et à la nature même des savoirs scolaires sélectionnés. On en vient donc nécessairement à s'interroger sur les liens à établir entre l'interne et l'externe de la situation ainsi que sur les différentes échelles de contexte à prendre en considération. Cette contribution veut mettre en évidence les articulations possibles entre ces différentes échelles de contexte. En effet, nous pensons que le contexte pertinent d'analyse des pratiques d'intervention n'est à appréhender ni exclusivement au niveau de ce qui émerge en situation de classe, ni uniquement du côté des déterminants externes à l'établissement « mais au croisement des propriétés incorporées des acteurs et des propriétés des contextes d'action » (Lahire, 2012). C'est bien dans l'interaction entre ces différentes échelles de contexte qu'il nous faudra trouver des éléments de compréhension et d'explication des phénomènes d'enseignement apprentissage. Dans ce cadre, nous proposons de croiser

Résumé : In the Gulf of Gabes (Tunisia, Eastern Mediterranean sea), the grooved carpet shell Ruditapes decussatus has been seen to contain persistent levels of gymnodimine (GYM) for several years. The present experimental work represents the first attempt to assess detoxification kinetics of fast-acting toxins (FAT) in marine molluscs fed specific diets of non-toxic algae (Isochrysis galbana). To find an optimal detoxification method, two experiments were performed in which clams were first fed the toxic dinoflagellate Karenia selliformis to artificially contaminate them with GYM, thus simulating the effect of natural toxic episodes. As a second step, the same clams were fed a non-toxic algae, I. galbana. to speed up the detoxification process. Changes in toxin content over the whole experiment were assessed by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis. The first results revealed (i) faster detoxification rates in digestive gland (DG) when clams were fed on L galbana compared with a starved control (no food) and (ii) a typical detoxification pattern, i.e. a rapid drop in toxin content within the first days followed by a secondary slower decrease. GYM levels could be reduced approximately to less than 5% within 7-8 days in clams fed I. galbana, according to the initial toxin levels of 1400 and 9400 mu g GYM/kg of DG, respectively. At the end of the second experiment, DSP mouse bioassay was negative when GYM was less than 100 mu g/kg DG. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

We present a study on the optimasation of the number of messages for medical diagnosis over wireless sensors networks (WSNs). We suggest distributed algorithms to diagnosis some diseases while monitoring a patient. Then, we compare the number of messages needed to make a decision between the algorithms. In our approach, each sensor will make some computations in order to participate to the decision. Indeed, some computation and collaboration tasks are performed over the sensors and the final diagnosis is performed in a distributed way. During the experimentation of our algorithms, we used a real data flow extracted from hospital monitoring.

Résumé : International audience
Sea cows (manatees, dugongs) are the only living marine mammals to feed solely on aquatic plants. Unlike whales or dolphins (Cetacea), the earliest evolutionary history of sirenians is poorly documented, and limited to a few fossils including skulls and skeletons of two genera composing the stem family of Prorastomidae (Prorastomus and Pezosiren). Surprisingly, these fossils come from the Eocene of Jamaica, while stem Hyracoidea and Proboscidea - the putative sister-groups to Sirenia - are recorded in Africa as early as the Late Paleocene. So far, the historical biogeography of early Sirenia has remained obscure given this paradox between phylogeny and fossil record. Here we use X-ray microtomography to investigate a newly discovered sirenian petrosal from the Eocene of Tunisia. This fossil represents the oldest occurrence of sirenians in Africa. The morphology of this petrosal is more primitive than the Jamaican prorastomids' one, which emphasizes the basal position of this new African taxon within the Sirenia clade. This discovery testifies to the great antiquity of Sirenia in Africa, and therefore supports their African origin. While isotopic analyses previously suggested sirenians had adapted directly to the marine environment, new paleoenvironmental evidence suggests that basal-most sea cows were likely restricted to fresh waters.

Résumé : International audience
Il 23 febbraio 2005 l'Assemblea Nazionale francese ha approvato la legge n. 158 «portant reconnaissance de la nation et contribution nationale en faveur des Français rapatriés», presentata da un gruppo di deputati dell'UMP (Unione per un movimento popolare) 1. Il testo intende riconoscere, e riaffermare, il debito morale dello Stato francese nei confronti dei " Pieds-noirs " (i francesi d'Algeria) e specialmente degli " Harkis " 2 , autoctoni reclutati dall'esercito francese in alcune unità ausiliarie durante la guerra d'Algeria. Con questa legge si vorrebbero dunque riconoscere i meriti degli Harkis, anche attraverso risarcimenti e riparazioni " morali " : gli Harkis e i loro orfani, infatti, percepiranno un sussidio di 2.800 euro l'anno, accompagnato da un capitale di 20.000 euro. La legge intende inoltre proteggere gli Harkis contro «gli insulti, la diffamazione e contro quelli che vorranno negare la loro tragedia». Oltre all'aumento delle compensazioni date ai Pieds-noirs, Harkis e veterani, la legge prevede la creazione di una fondazione per la memoria della guerra d'Algeria e dei combattimenti del Marocco e della Tunisia. A questa legge, che in origine avrebbe dovuto interessare " soltanto " la riconoscenza della nazione francese verso gli Harkis e i Pieds-noirs, sono stati aggiunti due nuovi articoli-1 e 4-che in un certo senso ne rivelano l'ambiguità di fondo.
