Download or read book G opolitique de l Auvergne written by Pierre Mazataud and published by EDITIONS CREER. This book was released on 1988 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pendant une année, Pierre Mazataud a collecté 50 000 données de base sur les 15 consultations les plus révélatrices de l'évolution politique de l'Auvergne depuis 1946. Il a établi la biographie de quelques 650 candidats ou élus, analysé leurs déclarations et leurs écrits, consulté systématiquement archives et journaux. Il a consacré une nouvelle année pour affiner son analyse à l'échelle des petits pays, voire des cantons, et pour proposer cette synthèse de géopolitique. Cette étude, originale à bien des titres, constate que les cartes officielles de la vie politique, les limites administratives et les découpages électoraux sont souvent de mauvais compromis entre le poids des habitudes et les situations de force. L'auteur montre bien leur contingence et donne tous les éléments pour apprécier avec une bonne précision les effets des derniers découpages. Cet observateur extérieur aux appareils des partis, renonce pourtant à neutralité stérile. Il propose non pas les cadres définitifs pour la vie civique de l'Auvergne de demain, mais ceux qui, compte tenu des nouvelles techniques télématiques et médiatiques, seraient les plus proches à assurer une vie administrative et politique simplifiée, moins coûteuse et plus respectueuse des diverses cultures politiques ancrées dans la région Auvergne. Entre le pôle de la gauche au Nord-Ouest de la région et pôle conservateur au Sud-Est, existe un des plus forts gradients de sensibilité politique qu'on puisse observer en France. Les responsables de l'Auvergne devraient pouvoir tirer parti de cette situation exceptionnelle en associant les forces complémentaires indispensables à la naissance d'une conscience régionale. À l'aube de la naissance des régions, cette conscience est bien nécessaire à l'Auvergne, prochain carrefour des voies de communication européennes qui peuvent, comme les chemins de fer par le passé, en faire un bastion centrifuge qui perdra un peu plus de sa substance humaine ou, comme aux périodes de crise, un refuge accueillant d'où naîtront les initiatives originales. Les portraits en situation de quelques hommes politiques majeurs de la région ne manqueront pas d'attirer le lecteur qui, s'il sait extrapoler et approfondir, pourra ainsi se livrer au jeu des prévisions pour les prochaines consultations électorales.

Download or read book Gastronomy and Local Development written by Nicola Bellini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gastronomy, particularly gourmet tourism, is widely acknowledged as having a powerful impact on local development. Public policies have developed in response to research, highlighting gastronomy as key in a successful tourism economy. However, research thus far has not fully explored the underlying mechanisms of gastronomic tourism, in particular the marketing and perception of quality, on economic development. This book considers how the quality of products, places, and experiences contributes to the desirability and competitiveness of gourmet touristic destinations. The contributors present theoretical and empirical studies to create an original conceptual framework for regional development based on the quality of products, of places, and of touristic experience. It also examines the ways in which quality is linked to identity, diversity, innovation, and creativity. With an interdisciplinary approach, this book will be of interest to researchers in tourism and hospitality, regional studies, and human geography, as well as to tourism development professionals and policymakers in the areas of rural and local development.

Download or read book The Nationality of Utopia written by Maxim Shadurski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-14 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its generic inception in 1516, utopia has produced visions of alterity which renegotiate, subvert, and transcend existing places. Early in the twentieth century, H. G. Wells linked utopia to the World State, whose post-national, post-Westphalian emergence he predicated on English national discourse. This critical study examines how the discursive representations of England’s geography, continuity, and character become foundational to the Wellsian utopia and elicit competing response from Wells’s contemporaries, particularly Robert Hugh Benson and Aldous Huxley, with further ramifications throughout the twentieth century. Contextualized alongside modern theories of nationalism and utopia, as well as read jointly with contemporary projections of England as place, reactions to Wells demonstrate a shift from disavowal to retrieval of England, on the one hand, and from endorsement to rejection of the World State, on the other. Attempts to salvage the residual traces of English culture from their degradation in the World State have taken increasing precedence over the imagination of a post-national order. This trend continues in the work of George Orwell, Anthony Burgess, J. G. Ballard, and Julian Barnes, whose future scenarios warn against a world without England. The Nationality of Utopia investigates utopia’s capacity to deconstruct and redeploy national discourse in ways that surpass fear and nostalgia.

Download or read book Les sources du plain chant et de la musique m di vale written by Michel Huglo and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-21 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origin and development of Western plainchant, and of the genres of liturgical book in which it is recorded, have occupied Michel Huglo throughout his long career, which has taken him to libraries in every corner of Europe and the United States. This volume, the first in a set of four to appear in the Variorum series, brings together analyses of manuscripts dating from the 9th to the 13th century, including Huglo's pathbreaking studies of the antiphoner of Compiègne, the first troper-prosers, and of alleluia lists as clues to place of origin. The consequences of the Treaty of Verdun (843) for the diffusion of the plainchant repertory, research in medieval musicology in the 20th century, the utility of codicology for musicological manuscript studies, and the critical edition of the Gregorian antiphoner are addressed in other studies included here. Les origines et le développement du plain-chant en Occident et l'étude des genres de livres liturgiques qui le contiennent ont occupé Michel Huglo durant sa longue carrière et l'ont conduit à visiter des bibliothèques partout en Europe et aux Etats-Unis. Ce volume, le premier d'une série de quatre dans la collection Variorum, comprend des analyses de manuscrits du neuvième au treizième siècle, notamment des études novatrices relançant les recherches sur l'antiphonaire de Compiègne, les premiers tropaires-prosaires et les listes d'alleluias comme moyen d'identification des manuscrits de chant. Les conséquences du traité de Verdun (843) pour la diffusion du répertoire de plain-chant, les recherches en musicologie médiévale au XXe siècle, l'application des méthodes de la codicologie à l'étude des manuscrits notés, et l'édition critique de l'Antiphonaire grégorien forment les sujets d'autres études réunies dans ce volume.
Download or read book Growth and Institutions in African Development written by Augustin K. Fosu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen a sustained research effort exploring the African development experience. The extant literature has offered a large set of explanations as to why the African development record has lagged behind that of other regions of the developing world. This new volume brings international contributors together to focus on the role of growth and institutions. First, it provides brief evidence on the growth and institutional records, as well as on development outcomes, during the post-independence period. Second, it targets certain growth determinants, including industrial embeddedness, innovation, exchange rate regimes, and environmental quality. Third, it sheds light on the dynamics and distribution of growth, and on growth-enhancing sectors of the economy. Finally, it investigates several issues of institutional development, as well as institutions generating development outcomes. Though focused on these two key areas, the coverage strives to achieve a comprehensive analysis of how Africa’s development may have been enhanced or undermined and to offer lessons for the future. This volume is essential reading for all scholars of development economics and development studies.

Download or read book The Economic Modernisation of France written by Roger Price and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-01-26 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1975, The Economic Modernisation of France presents the study of economic developments in France between 1730 and 1880. This period is conceived as one of growth in production within pre-industrial economic structures, succeeded from 1840-50 by rapid structural transformation and the creation of an industrial economy. Divided into four major parts it discusses themes like communication and the development of commerce; agriculture; industrial development; and population. Rich in primary sources, this will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of French history, European history, economic history, and history in general.
Download or read book The Making and Unmaking of a Saint written by Mathew Kuefler and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A crusader, a hermit, a bishop, a plague victim, and even a repentant murderer by turns: the stories attached to Saint Gerald of Aurillac offer a strange and fragmented legacy. His two earliest biographies, written in the early tenth and early eleventh centuries, depicted the saint as a warrior who devoted his life to pious service. Soon Gerald was a venerated figure, and the monastery he founded was itself a popular pilgrimage site. Like many other cults, his faded into obscurity over time, although a small group of loyal worshippers periodically revived interest, creating sculpted or stained glass images and the alternate biographies that complicated an ever more obscure history. The Making and Unmaking of a Saint traces the rise and fall of devotion to Gerald of Aurillac through a millennium, from his death in the tenth century to the attempt to reinvigorate his cult in the nineteenth century. Mathew Kuefler makes a strong case for the sophistication of hagiography as a literary genre that can be used to articulate religious doubts and anxieties even as it exalts the saints; and he overturns the received attribution of Gerald's detailed Vita to Odo of Cluny, identifying it instead as the work of the infamous eleventh-century forger Ademar of Chabannes. Through his careful examination, the biographies and iconographies that mark the waxing and waning of Saint Gerald's cult tell an illuminating tale not only of how saints are remembered but also of how they are forgotten.
