Social Activism in Southeast Asia
Social Activism in Southeast Asia examines the ways in which social movements operate in a region characterized by a history of authoritarian regimes and relatively weak civil society. It situates cutting-edge accounts of activism around civil and political rights, globalization, peace, the environment, migrant and factory labour, the rights of middle- and working-class women, and sexual identity in an overarching framework of analysis that forefronts the importance of human rights and the state as a focus for social activism. Drawing on contemporary evidence from Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Timor-Leste, the book explores the ways in which social movement actors engage with their international allies, the community and the state in order to promote social change. As well as providing detailed and nuanced analyses of particular movements in specific areas of Southeast Asia, the book addresses difficult questions about the politics, strategies and authenticity of social movements.

Le campagnol terrestre
Depuis le début des années 1970, des pullulations de campagnols terrestres causent des dégâts considérables dans plusieurs régions à vocation d'élevage (Auvergne, Franche-Comté...) avec de multiples conséquences sur l'économie, la santé et la faune. La solution chimique proposée d'abord a provoqué des effets secondaires néfastes sur la faune auxiliaire et le gibier. Le problème « campagnol » est devenu problème sociétal.De 1992 à 2007, plusieurs plans d'actions ont pris en compte l'étude globale des processus et la recherche de solutions durables pour mettre en place les moyens d'une lutte raisonnée. Le bilan présenté dans cet ouvrage illustre l'apport d'une démarche systémique pour lutter contre un ravageur.

Cajun Literature and Cajun Collective Memory
How does Cajun literature, emerging in the 1980s, represent the dynamic processes of remembering in Cajun culture? Known for its hybrid constitution and deeply ingrained oral traditions, Cajun culture provides an ideal testing ground for investigating the collective memory of a group. In particular, francophone and anglophone Cajun texts by such writers as Jean Arceneaux, Tim Gautreaux, Jeanne Castille, Zachary Richard, Ron Thibodeaux, Darrell Bourque, and Kirby Jambon reveal not only a shift from an oral to a written tradition. They also show hybrid perspectives on the Cajun collective memory. Based on recurring references to place, the texts also reflect on the (Acadian) past and reveal th...
Metropolitan Natures
One of the oldest metropolitan areas in North America, Montreal has evolved from a remote fur-trading post in New France into an international center for services and technology.
