Résumé : The current legal regime governing marine farms reflects what French shellfish culture used to be: an artisanal, traditional and family activity. Even if this profession is of social importance, it has never really been taken into account in coastal management decisions. This is the reason why, if aquaculture must expand, the whole related legal regime has to be adapted to the new needs of a profession which is still trying to find itself. New links will develop with the responsible authorities. Conflicts of a new type will rise between the different coastal and marine space users. A rethinking of the standard public property regulations seems necessary.
Le régime juridique actuel des élevages marins est le reflet de ce qu'a été la conchyliculture en France : une activité artisanale, traditionnelle et familiale. Socialement importante, cette profession n'a cependant pas pesé lourd dans les choix d'aménagement du littoral. C'est pourquoi, si l'aquaculture doit prendre désormais de l'extension, c'est l'ensemble du régime juridique qui lui est applicable qu'il convient d'adapter aux besoins nouveaux d'une profession qui se cherche. Des rapports nouveaux vont naître avec 1'Administration de tutelle. Des conflits d'un type particulier risquent de surgir entre les divers usagers de l'espace marin et littoral. Un réaménagement des règles classiques de la domanialité publique semble inévitable. [OCR NON CONTRÔLE]

Résumé : International audience
This paper describes an operational protocol for integrating conservation and restoration with land-use planning in islands. Conservation challenges are intensified in insular systems due to higher ecosystem vulnerability, limited spatial options, low data availability, rapid land-use change and, globally, short-term vision planning. Our operational planning protocol integrates ecological and socio-economic factors to identify the best spatial options for conserving and restoring biodiversity, inside and outside extant reserves, while minimising future land-use conflicts. Conservation and restoration targets are formulated for species, habitats and ecological processes that support biodiversity. An optimal network of priority sites is selected to achieve those targets across the landscape. The prioritisation process integrates a Conservation Costs Index to optimise conservation and restoration investments. We discuss the outcomes of the planning protocol in terms of site prioritisation, stakeholders' participation and general implications for spatial planning in insular systems. As with many islands, the study area of Réunion Island has experienced rapid urban and agricultural expansion, which threatens its unique biodiversity. Forty three per cent of the island is currently protected in a National Park but only half of this reserve network contributes to the achievement of targets. An additional 21% of land should be conserved mainly to ensure the persistence of ecological connections between the marine, terrestrial and freshwater realms. Finally we emphasize that our method doesn't substitute the land-use planning debate but is aimed to better prepare the conservation sector for negotiating future land-use allocation with other socio-economic sectors in islands

Résumé : À quelques kilomètres d’Oran, la zone côtière d’Aïn el Turck connue auparavant pour ses belles plages, a subi depuis quelques décennies une urbanisation incontrôlée touchant essentiellement son domaine public maritime (DPM). Actuellement, sur les parties hautes des plages comme Saint Roch, Paradis, Bouisseville ou Trouville s’alignent des villas de un à deux étages, des garages à bateaux et de grands hôtels. L’empiètement sur ces espaces pourtant protégés par plusieurs lois a participé à l’érosion de la bande sableuse et à la régression de l’activité touristique balnéaire. Une situation qui reflète une nette difficulté dans la gestion et la protection de cet espace convoité et fragile.Notre étude de la zone côtière d’Aïn el Turck va aborder quatre points : la relation entre la « bétonisation » du rivage et le changement du trait de côte, l’évolution de l’urbanisation et les stratégies d’occupations, les types de concurrence qui existent entre différents usagers sur l’appropriation du foncier littoral et enfin, les difficultés éprouvées dans la protection du domaine public maritime par les services gestionnaires. La méthode du travail est basée essentiellement sur deux approches : la première est la comparaison entre plusieurs photos aériennes, à différentes dates, pour l’identification des changements naturels affectant le rivage en relation avec l’évolution de l’urbanisation de la côte. La seconde est la réalisation d’entretiens avec les principaux acteurs du territoire et l’analyse des discours formulés par les différents groupes d’intérêts, souvent en situation de conflit.
A few kilometres from Oran, the coastal area of Ain el Turck previously known for its beautiful beaches, has suffered in recent decades uncontrolled urbanization affecting mainly the maritime public domain (DPM). Currently, the upper parts of beaches like St. Roch, Paradis, Trouville, Bouisseville or lined with villas from one to two floors, garages for boats and large hotels. Encroachment on these areas yet protected by several laws, participated in the erosion of the sandbank and the decline of seaside tourism. This reflected a marked difficulty in managing and protecting this fragile and coveted space.Our study of the coastal area of Ain el Turck will address four points: the relationship between 'concretisation' of shoreline and shoreline change, the evolution of urbanization and occupation strategies, types of competition between different users on the ownership of coastal land and finally, the difficulties in protecting the maritime public by managing services.The method of work is essentially based on two approaches:the first is the comparison between several aerial photographs at different dates, for identifying changes affecting the natural shoreline in relation to the evolution of the urbanization of the coast. The second is conducting interviews with stakeholders in the area and analysis of speeches made by various interest groups, often in conflict.

Résumé : International audience
BACKGROUND: Studies relating long-term exposure to persistent organochlorine pollutants (POPs) with endocrine activities (endocrine disrupting chemicals) on circulating levels of steroid hormones have been limited to a small number of hormones and reported conflicting results. OBJECTIVE: We examined the relationship between serum concentrations of dehydroepiandrosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, androstenedione, androstenediol, testosterone, free and bioavailable testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, estrone, estrone sulphate, estradiol, sex-hormone binding globulin, follicle-stimulating hormone, and luteinizing hormone as a function of level of exposure to three POPs known to interfere with hormone-regulated processes in different way: dichlorodiphenyl dichloroethene (DDE), polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congener 153, and chlordecone. METHODS: We collected fasting, morning serum samples from 277 healthy, non obese, middle-aged men from the French West Indies. Steroid hormones were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, except for dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, which was determined by immunological assay, as were the concentrations of sex-hormone binding globulin, follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. Associations were assessed by multiple linear regression analysis, controlling for confounding factors, in a backward elimination procedure, in multiple bootstrap samples. RESULTS: DDE exposure was negatively associated to dihydrotestosterone level and positively associated to luteinizing hormone level. PCB 153 was positively associated to androstenedione and estrone levels. No association was found for chlordecone. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggested that the endocrine response pattern, estimated by determining blood levels of steroid hormones, varies depending on the POPs studied, possibly reflecting differences in the modes of action generally attributed to these compounds. It remains to be investigated whether this response pattern is predictive of the subsequent occurrence of disease.

Résumé : A new programme concerning the experimentation of about thirty Fish Aggregating Devices (FADs) is to start in the Cape Verde Islands at the end of 1999. In this context, this communication is intended: - to evaluate the halieutic, economic and social conditions of the artisanal fishery in this archipelago, notably in terms of assets and constraints. Although these conditions are very heterogeneous depending on islands, the fads seem to be able to help the stabilization and the development of the fishing activities, disadvantaged by a low productivity, limited operating ranges of boats, and very irregular outings at sea. But the narrowness of the domestic market is likely to cause drops in the fish prices if the production increases, while the absence of institutional framework may be a handicap at the level of the management (of the programme itself, and/or of some possible conflicts of uses); - to carry out an assessment of the former experiments. It emphasized the insufficiency of the follow-up and the maintenance of the structures, of which the lifespan varied at the most between four and six months, as well as the positive effects of the concentration, and the interest of the fishermen already sensitized with these structures.

Résumé :  
Evaluating the genetic architecture of sexual dimorphism can aid our understanding of the extent to which shared genetic control of trait variation versus sex-specific control impacts the evolutionary dynamics of phenotypic change within each sex. We performed a QTL analysis on Silene latifolia to evaluate the contribution of sex-specific QTL to phenotypic variation in 46 traits, whether traits involved in trade-offs had colocalized QTL, and whether the distribution of sex-specific loci can explain differences between the sexes in their variance/covariance matrices. We used a backcross generation derived from two artificial-selection lines. We found that sex-specific QTL explained a significantly greater percent of the variation in sexually dimorphic traits than loci expressed in both sexes. Genetically correlated traits often had colocalized QTL, whose signs were in the expected direction. Lastly, traits with different genetic correlations within the sexes displayed a disproportionately high number of sex-specific QTL, and more QTL co-occurred in males than females, suggesting greater trait integration. These results show that sex differences in QTL patterns are congruent with theory on the resolution of sexual conflict and differences based on G-matrix results. They also suggest that trade-offs and trait integration are likely to affect males more than females.

Résumé : International audience
The evolutionary origin of teeth from dermal denticles (odontodes) that developed in the mouth cavity, designated as outside-in hypothesis, has long been undisputed. The outside-in hypothesis is based on the conclusion that dermal denticles and teeth fulfil the criteria of homology in an exemplary manner. Over the past 15 years, this hypothesis has been challenged. Proponents of the alternative inside-out hypothesis suggest that teeth did not evolve from dermal denticles, that they are of endodermal origin (forming in conjunction with neural crest-derived mesenchyme) and that they evolved several times independently in different lineages of vertebrates. Key arguments for the inside-out hypothesis are mineralized structures of conodonts that are accepted as teeth, the exclusive acceptance of placoderm pharyngeal denticles as teeth, together with the rejection of the presence of teeth in basal placoderms. We summarize the results of recent studies that have been triggered by the fruitful discussion between the two conflicting hypotheses. New findings support the traditional outside-in hypothesis: the mineralized elements of conodonts are not teeth, and the oral cusps in basal placoderms are true teeth. Furthermore, new developmental and molecular data clarify homology between teeth and dermal denticles. Today a new synthesis is emerging about the evolutionary origin of teeth from dermal denticles and about the unity of the elements of the dermal skeleton.

The aim of this article is to propose the basis for an open reflection on the sources of colonization through the literary approach proposed by Ngugi. In this context, it has been repetitively noted that the relations between Colonized and Colonizer (Memmi) are tenacious in our nature and everyday ways of thinking. And, contradictorily, the term "colonization" seems to evoke the days of yore, already accomplished, in our minds - one of the closed chapters in history - while the colonial-type armed conflicts and the process of recolonization have burst out again by the beginning of XXI century. Conquering the African resources, then to chase with all haste - using many stratagems - the least conciliatory leaders! The colonization is a process of the politico-economic exploitation that requires a mind control, of both the colonized and the colonizers.

Résumé : The introduction of the limpet Crepidula fornicata on French coasts occurred through a number of stages of unequal amplitude. The two main stages are the result of a) its transportation on the hulls of the Allies ships during WWII, and b) the voluntary introduction of the Japanese oyster Crassostrea gigas in the 1970s. A recent assessment of its distribution shows that it can be found from the North Sea to the Mediterranean shores, resulting in some conflicts, due to its high density.
L'introduction de la crépidule Crepidula fornicata sur les côtes de France s'est effectuée en plusieurs phases d'inégale amplitude. Les deux plus importantes sont dues au transport par les coques de bateaux alliés, à la fin de la deuxième guerre mondiale et à l'introduction volontaire, durant les années 1970, de l'huître japonaise Crassostrea gigas. Un bilan actuel de sa répartition montre qu'elle est présente de la Mer du Nord aux rives de Méditerranée, engendrant parfois des situations de conflit, du fait de sa forte densité.

Résumé : Overexploitation of marine resources remains a problem worldwide. Many works advocate for the use of marine reserves as a central element of future stock management in a sustainable perspective. In the present paper, we address the influence of protected areas upon fisheries sustainability within an eco-systemic framework through a dynamic bio-economic model integrating a trophic web, catches and environmental uncertainties. The model is spatially implicit. The evaluation of the ecosystem is designed through the respect along time of constraints of both conservation and guaranteed captures. Using the mathematical concept of invariance kernel in a stochastic context, we define different MPA effects according to biodiversity catches or mixed points of view. Numerical simulations inspired from data of Abore coral reef reserve in New Caledonia illustrate the main concepts. In this case, it is pointed out how MPA conservation effect is not necessarily conflicting with MPA catches effect. it is shown that such a co-viability requires medium exploitation rate. Moreover, the climatic changes represented by rise in cyclonic events seem to reinforce these assertions. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Résumé : International audience
BACKGROUND: The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) has gradually emerged as a regulator of inflammation in the lung and other tissues. AhR may interact with the p65-subunit of the nuclear factor (NF)-κB transcription factors, but reported outcomes of AhR/NF-κB-interactions are conflicting. Some studies suggest that AhR possess pro-inflammatory activities while others suggest that AhR may be anti-inflammatory. The present study explored the impact of AhR and its binding partner AhR nuclear translocator (Arnt) on p65-activation and two differentially regulated chemokines, CXCL8 (IL-8) and CCL5 (RANTES), in human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B). RESULTS: Cells were exposed to CXCL8- and CCL5-inducing chemicals, 1-nitropyrene (1-NP) and 1-aminopyrene (1-AP) respectively, or the synthetic double-stranded RNA analogue, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (Poly I:C) which induced both chemokines. Only CXCL8, and not CCL5, appeared to be p65-dependent. Yet, constitutively active unligated AhR suppressed both CXCL8 and CCL5, as shown by siRNA knock-down and the AhR antagonist α-naphthoflavone. Moreover, AhR suppressed activation of p65 by TNF-α and Poly I:C as assessed by luciferase-assay and p65-phosphorylation at serine 536, without affecting basal p65-activity. In contrast, Arnt suppressed only CXCL8, but did not prevent the p65-activation directly. However, Arnt suppressed expression of the NF-κB-subunit RelB which is under transcriptional regulation by p65. Furthermore, AhR-ligands alone at high concentrations induced a moderate CXCL8-response, without affecting CCL5, but suppressed both CXCL8 and CCL5-responses by Poly I:C. CONCLUSION: AhR and Arnt may differentially and independently regulate chemokine-responses induced by both inhaled pollutants and pulmonary infections. Constitutively active, unligated AhR suppressed the activation of p65, while Arnt may possibly interfere with the action of activated p65. Moreover, ligand-activated AhR suppressed CXCL8 and CCL5 responses by other agents, but AhR ligands alone induced CXCL8 responses when given at sufficiently high concentrations, thus underscoring the duality of AhR in regulation of inflammation. We propose that AhR-signaling may be a weak activator of p65-signaling that suppresses p65-activity induced by strong activators of NF-κB, but that its anti-inflammatory properties also are due to interference with additional pathways.

Résumé : International audience
During the last decade, GIS have suffered of the lack of structured information and semantic definition of the data. The numerous origins of the data and the spatial localization of the object inferred many inconsistencies among them. Indeed, the way to collect data and the level of sampling of the boundary differ from one application to another and from one expert to another. This leads to different representations of the same reality and different models of semantically identical objects or boundaries. To allow the matching of the objects, or parts of the objects, when combining different information layers we introduced a conceptual layer which described a scene with concepts and spatial relationships based on the definition of an ontology. This layer allows detecting and solving conflicts between the common boundaries of two objects. We present in this paper the specification and the way to build and use the ontology.

Résumé : Ghost fishing and its consequences are little known in the French West Indies. In Guadeloupe, no allegation concerning ghost fishing was made public to date. In the absence of objective studies about this phenomenon, it is impossible to quantify the impact of these lost gears on the resource (Chaves et al. 2006). However, the characteristics of small-scale fishing existing in this area let think that it happens indeed that fishing machines are lost: - weather constraints, sometimes of catastrophic type (storms, hurricanes). The fishermen fix less racks (traps) during the period preceding the hurricane season in preparation for possible loss (Komla-Soukha and Bouchereau 2007). Of the 40 000 Caribbean traps around Guadeloupe, about 20 000 are lost each year during hurricane season, but continue to catch fish for many months (Burke and Maidens 2004); - accidents (most common causes after the literature) occurring during a fishing operation are events already well orally brought back (Macfayden et al. 2009); - the voluntary abandonment at sea of material by the fisherman for convenience reasons; - the consequences of conflicts of use (thefts, destruction of fishing gears, boardings of ships). It is the case in the Caribbean area in connection with the interactions related to the stake on resources exploitation (Blanchet et al. 2002).

Résumé : Sur fond de crise du tourisme au Nord, de la globalisation de l’économie et de l’accélération des mobilités, une évolution des formes de développement touristiques semble à l’œuvre dans les confins géographiques. Dans certains territoires touristiques du fait de conflits dans l’usage des ressources naturelles, des pratiques récréatives alternatives émergent qui combinent une logique économique avec des préoccupations socio-environnementales.Notre article analyse l’apparition du tourisme scientifique dans la région « non-touristique » de Aysén, en Patagonie chilienne. Des acteurs d’un territoire se mobilisent selon des pôles culturels et des axes thématiques autour de projets pilotes, de recherche expérientielle et de médiations scientifiques innovantes. Sur ce front pionnier, un réseau informel d’acteurs coordonne ses actions pour aborder les problématiques sociales et environnementales de leur territoire. Opérateurs et prestataires pour le tourisme scientifique créent de manière participative une offre originale. Un système touristique alternatif, axé sur la protection de l’environnement, de la culture et des dynamiques sociales de la communauté d’accueil, favorise l’acquisition et le partage de savoirs entre scientifiques, acteurs locaux et visiteurs.Le tourisme scientifique s’inscrit-il dans une évolution globale des pratiques touristiques ? En proposant de dépasser les frontières, entre activités récréatives et le travail, de lieux de vie et de loisir, il apparaît comme l’expression d’un « après-tourisme ». L’hybridation des pratiques, une approche scientifique associée à l’esprit de la découverte inhérent au voyage, semble pouvoir relever des défis sociétaux liés à l’essor d’un tourisme globalisé. Alors que le tourisme est pensé depuis longtemps en termes de transfert de compétences, de modèles et d’ingénierie du Nord vers le Sud, une périphérie propose de nouveaux cadres de pensée, d’action et de participation qui renouvellent le sens du voyage.
In the context of a tourism crisis in the north, a globalized economy and an increase of mobility, a change in the forms of tourism development seems to occur in peripheral areas. In some tourism areas and due to conflicts over the use of natural resources, alternative recreational practices arise that combine economic needs and socio-environmental concerns.Our article analyzes the appearance of scientific tourism in the "non-tourist" region of Aysén, in Chilean Patagonia. Actors of a territory unite according to specific cultural poles and thematic axes through experiential research and innovative scientific mediation pilot projects. On this pioneer front, an informal network of stakeholders coordinates its actions to address the social and environmental issues of their territory. Operators and service providers for scientific tourism create an innovative offer in a participatory process. An alternative tourism system, focused on protecting the environment, the culture and social dynamics of the host community, promotes the acquisition and sharing of knowledge between scientists, local actors and visitors.Is scientific tourism part of a global evolution of tourism practices? By proposing to go beyond established boundaries, of recreational activities and work, everyday places and leisure areas, it appears as the expression of an “After-Tourism”. The hybridization of practices, a scientific approach associated with the spirit of the discovery inherent of the travel experience, seems to respond to the challenges of the community confronted to the rise of a globalized tourism. While tourism has always been thought of in terms of transfer of skills, models and engineering from the North to the South, a periphery offers new frameworks of thought, action and participation that renew the meaning of travel.
En un escenario de crisis del turismo en los países desarrollados, de la globalización de la economía y del incremento de las movilidades, una evolución de las formas de desarrollo del turismo parece estar en marcha en los confines geográficos. En ciertos territorios turísticos, debido a los conflictos de uso de los recursos naturales, prácticas recreativas alternativas surgen que combinan una lógica económica con preocupaciones socio-ambientales.El presente artículo analiza el surgimiento del turismo científico en la región “no-turística” de Aysén en la Patagonia chilena. Actores del territorio se unen según polos y temáticas científicas, a través de proyectos pilotos, de investigación experiencial y mediaciones científicas innovadoras. En este frente pionero, una red informal se organiza para abordar las problemáticas sociales y ambientales de su territorio. Operadores y proveedores de servicios para el turismo científico crean de manera participativa una oferta novedosa. Un sistema turístico alternativo, basado en el cuidado del medio ambiente, de la cultura y de las dinámicas sociales del comunidad de acogida, favorece la adquisición y el intercambio de conocimientos entre científicos, actores locales y visitantes. ¿Será la aparición del turismo científico la expresión de una evolución global de las practicas turísticas? Al invitar a que sean sobrepasadas las fronteras, entre actividades recreativas y el trabajo, lugares de vida y sitios de esparcimiento, este se presenta como un “Pos-Turismo”. La hibridación de las prácticas, una aproximación científica asociada al espíritu de descubrimiento inherente del viaje, parece poder resolver los desafíos de nuestras sociedades vinculados al auge de un turismo globalizado. Cuando el turismo suele ser pensado desde hace mucho, como un proceso de transferencia de capacidades, de modelos y de ingenierías, del Norte hacia el Sur, una periferia propone nuevos marcos conceptuales, de acción y de participación, que renuevan el sentido del viaje.

Résumé : International audience
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor medications (SSRIs) are the first lines of treatment for maternal affective disorders, and are prescribed to up to 10% of pregnant women. Concern has been raised about how perinatal exposure to these medications affect offspring neurobehavioral outcomes, particularly those related to social interactions, as recent research has reported conflicting results related to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) risk in children prenatally exposed to SSRIs. Therefore, the aim of this work was to investigate the effects of perinatal exposure to the SSRI fluoxetine on social play behaviors and the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal system, using a model of pre-gestational maternal stress. We also investigated synaptic proteins in the CA2, CA3, and dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, as well as number of immature neurons in the granule cell layer, as both measures of plasticity in the hippocampus have been linked to social behaviors. In pre-adolescent male and female Sprague-Dawley rat offspring, main findings show that perinatal fluoxetine prevents the negative effect of maternal stress on sibling play behavior. However, perinatal fluoxetine increased social aggressive play with a novel conspecific in both sexes and decreased time grooming a novel conspecific in males only. Perinatal fluoxetine also increased serum corticosteroid binding globulin levels, 5-HT levels in the hippocampus, and pre-synaptic density assessed via synaptophysin in the dentate gyrus. Social interaction was significantly correlated with changes in plasticity in the CA2 region of the hippocampus. Pre-gestational maternal stress exposure resulted in significantly decreased rates of hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptophysin density in the dentate gyrus of pre-adolescent males, but not females. Together, these results further characterize the role of perinatal SSRIs, maternal stress prior to conception, and sex/gender on developing social behaviors and related plasticity in the hippocampus of pre-adolescent offspring.

Résumé : L’article s’intéresse à la construction de l’identité noire en Jamaïque lors de l’indépendance obtenue du Royaume-Uni en 1962. Dominée par les Euro-créoles, paupérisée et confrontée à une offre politique nationale inadaptée, la population africaine souffre de l’absence d’une identité noire institutionnalisée, diluée dans le « nationalisme multiracial créole ». Ce travail met en lumière l’importance de l’histoire et des problématiques de la mémoire dans le processus de construction des identités sociales et souligne le rôle central de la culture dans les luttes de pouvoir.
The article deals with the status of a Black identity in Jamaica when it became independent from the United Kingdom in 1962. Dominated by the Euro-Creoles, pauperized and facing an inadequate political offer, the African population suffers from the lack of an institutionalized blackness, melted into “Creole multiracialism”. This study highlights the importance of history and memory issues in the process of building up social identities, and underlines the central role of culture in conflicts of power.

Résumé : En développant, à partir de 1984, un Centre touristique Intégralement Planifié dans une localité de la côte Pacifique de l’état d’Oaxaca, l’État mexicain entendait impulser un développement économique dans une région périphérique et pauvre du pays. Basé sur l’expropriation d’une portion du territoire communal, le processus engendre un certain nombre de résistances au sein des communautés locales. Le centre touristique est aujourd’hui un espace fragmenté, reflet et conséquence des inégalités sociales et des conflits sociaux. Depuis une perspective de géographie sociale, cet article cherche à mettre en lumière les conflits et compromis sociaux qui traversent la société locale. L’appropriation de l’espace, les luttes de pouvoir et les stratégies développées par les différents acteurs seront les entrées privilégiées pour interroger un modèle de planification, « par le haut », ignorant trop souvent les réalités sociales à l’échelle locale.
Since 1984, the Mexican government has tried to stimulate the economy in a poor and peripheral area of the country. They aimed to do so by developing an Integrally Planed Resort (CIP, in Spanish) in a community, located in the Oaxaca state on the Pacific coast. Being based on the expropriation of some parts of the communal territory, this process created some remittances among the local communities. Today, this resort is still a fragmented space and reflects social inequalities and social conflicts. From a social geographical perspective, this article aims to show the social conflicts and social compromises among the local society. Space appropriation, power battles and strategies developed by the different actors, will be the main tools to investigate this planning model. In this model, the government too often has ignored social realities on the local scale.
Al crear, a partir de 1984, un Centro turístico Integralmente Planeado en un poblado de la costa del estado de Oaxaca, el gobierno mexicano pretendió impulsar el desarrollo económico de una región periférica y marginada del país. Basado en la expropiación de una parte del territorio municipal, dicho proceso genera resistencias entre las comunidades locales. Hoy en día, el centro turístico es un espacio fragmentado, reflejo y consecuencia de las desigualdades sociales y conflictos. Desde una perspectiva de geografía social, el presente artículo buscará destacar los conflictos y compromisos sociales que atraviesan la sociedad local. La apropiación del espacio, las luchas de poder y las estrategias desarrolladas por los diferentes actores serán los enfoques privilegiados para cuestionar un modelo de planeación “vertical”, que suele ignorar las realidades sociales a nivel local.

Résumé : This manuscript is an extended version, including an updated bibliography, of the article: Hierarchical cooperativity mediated by chromatin remodeling; the model of the MMTV transcription regulation. Michel, D. 2011. J. Theor. Biol. 287, 74-81
International audience
Chromatin remodeling machineries are abundant and diverse in eukaryotic cells. They have been involved in a variety of situations such as histone exchange and DNA repair, but their importance in gene expression remains unclear. Although the influence of nucleosome position on the regulation of gene expression is generally envisioned under the quasi-equilibrium perspective, it is proposed that given the ATP-dependence of chro-matin remodeling enzymes, certain mechanisms necessitate non-equilibrium treatments. Examination of the celebrated chromatin remodeling system of the mouse mammary tumor virus, in which the binding of transcription factors opens the way to other ones, reveals that breaking equilibrium offers a subtle mode of transcription factor cooperativity, avoids molecular trapping phenomena and allows to reconcile previously conflicting experimental data. This mechanism provides a control lever of promoter responsiveness to transcription factor combinations, challenging the classical view of the unilateral influence of pioneer on secondary transcription factors.
