Ce rapport interroge l'émergence de l'agriculture comme nouvelle figure de ce que B. Secchi a appelé le « récit d'urbanisme ». Après avoir rappelé les rapports toujours-déjà controversés de l'urbain au rural, les auteurs s'intéressent à la manière dont différents acteurs mobilisent la nature et l'agriculture pour mettre en récit l'espace urbain, raconter la ville à venir - celle qui devrait voir le jour pour satisfaire à la doxa du développement urbain durable - et produire du consensus dans la production du territoire. L'analyse d'une controverse d'aménagement, celle relative au déclassement d'une parcelle de 58 hectares de zone agricole dans le canton de Genève (Suisse) pour construire 3000 logements ainsi que divers équipements collectifs, permet d'accomplir une généalogie de ce nouveau discours urbanistique. Pour ce faire, quatre types de sources sont mobilisés : des entretiens semi-directifs ; des documents d'urbanisme ; le matériau récolté lors d'une observation participante non déclarée ; la documentation produite à l'occasion de la campagne référendaire liée au déclassement de la parcelle en question ainsi que les commentaires produits sur les différents forums électroniques ouverts à cette occasion. L'analyse permet de dégager trois temps, qui sont trois figures du récit d'urbanisme : la genèse du plan directeur comme épopée d'un territoire (histoire des plans directeurs genevois); le plan de quartier comme roman (observation d'un collectif au travail pour produire un plan d'aménagement approprié à un site et à un programme); les contre-récits d'une controverse (le développement d'une campagne référendaire). La prosopopée du développement urbain durable apparaît ainsi comme une production éminemment intertextuelle et rhizomique - au sens de G. Deleuze et F. Guattari -, inscrite dans un mode de citation des différents produits de cette machine à produire des connaissances qu'est la pratique urbanistique. Au final, l'analyse au long cours proposée ici permet de réfléchir à la nature de cette activité supposément technique et politique qu'est l'urbanisme. Il se pourrait en effet que faire la ville consiste tout naturellement à faire des histoires...

Rifting processes, leading to sea-floor spreading, are characterized by a sequence of events: transtensive phase of extension with syn-rift volcanism; simple shear extension accompanied by lithospheric thinning and asthenospheric up-welling and thermal uplift of the rift shoulder and asymmetric volcanism. The simple shear model of extension leads to an asymmetric model of passive margin: a lower plate tilted block margin and an upper plate flexural, ramp-like margin- Both will be affected by thermal contraction and subsidence, starting soon after sea-floor spreading. Based on these actualistic models Tethyan margins are classified as one type or the other. Their evolution from the first transtensional phase of extension to the passive margin stage are analyzed. Four main rifting events are recognized in the Tethyan realm: an episode of lower Paleozoic events leading to the formation of the Paleotethys; a Late Paleozoic event leading to the opening of the Permotethys and East Mediterranean basin: an early Mesozoic event leading to the opening of the Pindos Neotethys and a Jurassic event related to the opening of the Alpine/Atlantic Neotethys. Type margins are given as example of each rifting event: -Northern Iran (Alborz) as a type area for the Late Ordovician to Silurian rifting of Paleotethys. -Northern India and Oman for the Late Carboniferous to early Permian rifting of Permotethys. -The East Mediterranean (Levant, Tunisia) as a Late Carboniferous rifting event. -The Neotethyan rifting phases are separated in two types: an eastern Pindos system found in Turkey and Greece is genetically linked to the Permotethys with a sea-floor spreading delayed until middle Triassic: a western Alpine system directly linked to the opening of the central Atlantic is characterized by a Late Triassic transtensive phase, an early to Middle Liassic break-away phase and. following sea-floor spreading, a thermal subsidence phase starting in Dogger. Problems related to the closure of the Paleozoic oceanic domains are reviewed. A Late Permian, early Triassic phase of `'docking'' between an European accretionary prism (Chios) and a Paleotethyan margin is supported by recent findings in the Mediterranean area. Back-arc rifting within the European active margin led to the formation of marginal seas during Permian and Triassic times and will contribute to the closure of the Paleozoic oceans.

This paper examines theoretical and methodological implications of Clifford Geertz's approach to religion as he formulated it in 'Religion as a cultural system' (Geertz 1966), where religion and culture seem to be defined as functional equivalents. The paper considers religious symbols in the public space, using two examples from contemporary reality - one being a certain expression spoken by the copilot of Egypt Air Flight 990, the other being the headscarf controversy in France - in order to explore how the anthropologist relates the microsituations he observes to an all-embracing context

Niche conservatism, the tendency of a species niche to remain unchanged over time, is often assumed when discussing, explaining or predicting biogeographical patterns. Unfortunately, there has been no basis for predicting niche dynamics over relevant timescales, from tens to a few hundreds of years. The recent application of species distribution models (SDMs) and phylogenetic methods to analysis of niche characteristics has provided insight to niche dynamics. Niche shifts and conservatism have both occurred within the last 100 years, with recent speciation events, and deep within clades of species. There is increasing evidence that coordinated application of these methods can help to identify species which likely fulfill one key assumption in the predictive application of SDMs: an unchanging niche. This will improve confidence in SDM-based predictions of the impacts of climate change and species invasions on species distributions and biodiversity.
