Product Description
La décentralisation, dans ses principes, constitueun élan de responsabilisation des collectivitéslocales. Toutefois, ces dernières rencontrentsouvent des problèmes dans la gestion descompétences qui leur sont transférées. Ces obstaclesdécoulent, en grande partie, de l'insuffisance et/oude l'absence d'outils de gestion et de planificationadaptées et efficaces. Dans ce contexte, la conception d'un systèmed'information géographique(SIG) comme base dedonnées foncière dynamique peut constituer un outil indispensable pour une meilleure occupation spatio- temporelle des terres.A travers cette étude, nous tentonsde montrer quela dotation des collectivités locales d'outilsd'aide à la décision est possible et nécessaire. ...

Product Description
La migration internationale féminine individuelle à partir du Sénégal a pris naissance en ville, au milieu des années 1980 et a concerné en premier les femmes wolofs avant de s?étendre au milieu rural. Aujourd?hui, elle est presque devenue un fait de société puisqu?elle a tendance à se généraliser à toutes les composantes ethniques et religieuses du pays. Cette féminisation observée dans le champ migratoire international sénégalais est peut être la conséquence de différents problèmes posés par la dégradation des moeurs (effritement des valeurs traditionnelles, perte de l?autorité parentale ou maritale) mais aussi par la crise économique sans précédent que connaît le pays. Elle peut de même s?expliquer par les changements socioculturels (évolution des mentalités) et éducatifs (augmentation du niveau d?instruction des femmes) que connaît le Sénégal depuis l?indépendance ainsi que par la féminisation des emplois à l?échelle mondiale. La structure du tissu migratoire dans son ensemble, au Sénégal et en France, est exposée. Ce travail ouvre ainsi un nouveau champ d?investigation autour de la migration internationale. ...

Product Description
Le Sénégal, officiellement la République du Sénégal, est un pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest appartenant à l'Afrique subsaharienne. Il est bordé par l'océan Atlantique à l'ouest, la Mauritanie au nord et à l'est, le Mali à l'est et la Guinée et la Guinée-Bissau au sud. La Gambie forme une quasi-enclave dans le Sénégal, pénétrant à plus de 300 km à l'intérieur des terres. Les îles du Cap-Vert sont situées à 560 km de la côte sénégalaise. Le pays doit son nom au fleuve qui le borde à l'est et au nord et qui prend sa source dans le Fouta Djallon en Guinée. Le climat est tropical et sec avec deux saisons : la saison sèche et la saison des pluies. Pendant la période coloniale, plusieurs comptoirs appartenant à différents empires coloniaux s'établissent le long de la côte. La ville de Saint-Louis devient capitale de l'Afrique occidentale française puis ce sera la ville de Dakar en 1902 laquelle deviendra ensuite la capitale de la république sénégalaise au moment de l'indépendance en 1960. Depuis 2000, le président du pays est Abdoulaye Wade. ... Read more

Product Description
Le contexte d'évolution de l'urbanité à Dakar estcombiné à l'émergence et/ou à l'affirmation delogiques identitaires. La religion est devenue, parla voie des réseaux, un facteur important de laconstruction territoriale. Les ?territoires-réseaux"constitués pourraient ainsi combiner l'ensemble desrelations qui se tissent à l'intérieur desdifférentes structures urbaines. Et parallèlement àla géographie administrative, la géographiechrétienne évolue avec sa propre structuration régieautour de deux modèles : ponctuel et surfacique.C'est à travers les comportements et les stratégiesdéveloppés par la communauté pour intégrer le socio- religieux dans l'urbain que se dessine laterritorialité. Pour la plupart, l'adhésion à desréseaux associatifs ou communautaires n'est passystématique, l'appartenance à l'entité géographiqueou à la structure les hébergeant est souvent nécessaire. Une des règles principales dufonctionnement des réseaux socio-religieux estqu'ils font ressortir deux niveaux d'occurrencesauxquels il faut s'intéresser : le niveau individueldu fidèle et le niveau collectif de l'organisationréseautique. ...

Product Description

"In the life of a tourist who travels a bit far, I think that at a certain point, a question necessarily arises: 'But what have I come here for?' A question that sets in motion a great cinema of justification to oneself, so that one doesn't have to seriously say to oneself: 'I'm here doing nothing.'"
In 1997 the celebrated Italian novelist and essayist Gianni Celati accompanied his friend, filmmaker Jean Talon, on a journey to West Africa which took them from Mali to Senegal and Mauritania. The two had been hoping to research a documentary about Dogon priests, but frustrated by red tape, their voyage became instead a touristic adventure. The vulnerable, prickly, insightful Celati kept notebooks of the journey, now translated by Adria Bernardi as Adventures in Africa. Celati is the privileged traveler, overwhelmed by customs he doesn't understand, always at the mercy of others who are trying to sell him something he doesn't want to buy, and aware of himself as the Tourist who is always a little disoriented and at the center of the continual misadventures that are at the heart of travel.
Celati's book is both a travelogue in the European tradition and a trenchant meditation on what it means to be a tourist. Celati learns to surrender to the chaos of West Africa and in the process produces a work of touching and comic descriptions, in the lucid and ironic prose that is his hallmark. Hailed as one of the best travelogues on Africa ever written and awarded the first Zerilli-Marimó prize, Adventures in Africa is a modest yet profound account of the utter discombobulation of travel.

1-0 out of 5 stars Flat and Disppointing
Maybe there are two ways of writing about travel.First, you write about startling things or things that other people normally might not notice.Second,you present a somewhat ordinary world but you do so in high-flown prose that---because of the quality of the writing---carries the reader along no matter what.This journalistic travel book seems one that a publisher might have picked up ONLY because the writer is well known.It is neither well written nor particularly acute in what it sees and reports.Too often there is a grim habit of stereotype, and always there is a languid sense of a prose style that suggests little more than some jottings in a loose-leaf along the way.A Graham Greene brings heart, keen perception, and inspiration to his "Journey without Maps" into Africa, and may other writers encounter people who remain in your mind.Celati just putters along.

1-0 out of 5 stars Adventures in Africa
After reading Adventures in Africa, we think that this book was not the best book ever.We thought that it was rather dull throughout almost the whole book.One reason that we might have thought that it was dull is because, the book is written like a journal.We haven't ever read a book written like a journal before, and I don't like that style of writing. That could have had an impact on us not liking the book, or just simply because we didn't like the way it was written. Also, the story line was not too interesting.Each journal that he would write each day would just tell about what he did that day.It is like reading a book about a person that sits at home all day.The main character was a tourist in Africa, and would meet new people and travel to different places.Most of the day's he would do the same thing.We found this book to be very repetitive, and we find that pretty boring about books.He would always tell about how he would go to this river and watch all the people bathe.He would do that everyday for a long period of time, and it just got old.After that he would go to a cliff and climb it everyday.Most days though, he would take a tour bus somewhere.While he was in Africa he made many friends, sometimes it was hard to keep them straight.His friend Jean, was his best friend, they went almost everywhere together.This book isn't the best book, and we wouldn't recommend it unless you like to read other peoples' journals.We just didn't find it interesting at all.It didn't grab my attention or make me actually want to read the book.The only reason why we read it was because we had to for a grade. ...
