Droughts, Floods, and Global Climatic Anomalies in the Indian Ocean World
This book explores histories of droughts and floods in the Indian Ocean World, and their connections to broader global climatic anomalies. It deploys an interdisciplinary approach rooted in the emerging field of climate history to investigate the multifaceted effects of global climatic anomalies on regions affected by the Indian Ocean Monsoon System – regularly conceived of as the macro-region’s ‘deep structure.’ Case studies explore how droughts and floods related to anomalous climatic conditions have historically affected states, societies, and ecologies across the Indian Ocean World, including in relation to food security, epidemic diseases, political (in)stability, economic change, infrastructural development, colonialism, capitalism, and scientific knowledge. Tracing longue durée patterns from the twelfth to the early twentieth centuries, this book makes a significant contribution to our understanding of global climatic events and their effects on the Indian Ocean World. It highlights essential historical case studies for contextualizing the potential effects of global warming on the macro-region in the present and future.

The Conquest of the Desert
Winner of the 2021 Thomas McGann Book Prize from the Rocky Mountain Council for Latin American Studies For more than one hundred years, the Conquest of the Desert (1878-1885) has marked Argentina's historical passage between eras, standing at the gateway to the nation's "Golden Age" of progress, modernity, and--most contentiously--national whiteness and the "invisibilization" of Indigenous peoples. This traditional narrative has deeply influenced the ways in which many Argentines understand their nation's history, its laws and policies, and its cultural heritage. As such, the Conquest has shaped debates about the role of Indigenous peoples within Argentina in the past and present. The Conquest of the Desert brings together scholars from across disciplines to offer an interdisciplinary examination of the Conquest and its legacies. This collection explores issues of settler colonialism, Indigenous-state relations, genocide, borderlands, and Indigenous cultures and land rights through essays that reexamine one of Argentina's most important historical periods.
Management et marketing du vin 2
Concurrence accrue des nouveaux pays producteurs et des produits de substitution, déconsommation de vin, changement climatique, crise sanitaire ou contextes géopolitiques, la filière viticole se retrouve depuis quelques années confrontée à de graves difficultés.

À travers la présentation des résultats de recherches originales, des grilles de lecture, des illustrations et des études de cas, Management et marketing du vin 2 analyse les principaux enjeux des filières vitivinicoles et envisage les opportunités nouvelles : un dynamisme renouvelé d’innovations techniques, organisationnelles et commerciales, des capacités d’adaptation des acteurs, une introduction plus importante des nouvelles technologies, etc. L’approche plurielle, mise en place par les différents auteurs et experts, propose une réflexion enrichie qui permet de mieux comprendre l’actualité de la filière vitivinicole et présente les leviers d’adaptation aux nouvelles attentes commerciales, sociétales et environnementales.
