  • Identification and Quantification of Stilbenes in Some Tunisian Red Wines Using UPLC-MS and HPLC-DAD
    Volume 51 > Number 3 > 2017 Identification and quantification of stilbenes in some Tunisian red wines using UPLC-MS and HPLC-DAD Kamel Arraki *, Élodie Renouf, Pierre Waffo-Téguo, Jean-Michel Mérillon, Tristan Richard and Alain Decendit Université de Bordeaux, Unité de Recherche Œnologie EA 4577, USC 1366 INRA, INP Équipe Molécules d’Intérêt Biologique (Gesvab) Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin CS 50008 - 210, chemin de Leysotte 33882 Villenave d’Ornon cedex, France Abstract Seven Tunisian red wines mainly from the Mornag appellation were analyzed for resveratrol and analogues. The wines of each variety were evaporated, concentrated, and then subjected to fractionation and purification using XAD16 and DOWEX column chromatography. In addition to resveratrol, seven stilbenes were identified by UPLC- MS. The stilbenes derived were shown to be piceatannol, piceid, α-viniferin, e-viniferin, hopeaphenol and isohopeaphenol. From the point of view of the presence of resveratrol derivatives, one wine, Sidi Zahia, was the richest qualitatively.

  • Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation
    Images of the Past: Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David M. Bond, M.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Sabra J. Webber, Advisor Johanna Sellman Philip Armstrong Copyrighted by David Bond 2017 Abstract The construction of stories about identity, origins, history and community is central in the process of national identity formation: to mould a national identity – a sense of unity with others belonging to the same nation – it is necessary to have an understanding of oneself as located in a temporally extended narrative which can be remembered and recalled. Amid the “memory boom” of recent decades, “memory” is used to cover a variety of social practices, sometimes at the expense of the nuance and texture of history and politics. The result can be an elision of the ways in which memories are constructed through acts of manipulation and the play of power. This dissertation examines practices and practitioners of nostalgia in a particular context, that of Tunisia and the Mediterranean region during the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Using a variety of historical and ethnographical sources I show how multifaceted nostalgia was a feature of the colonial situation in Tunisia notably in the period after the First World War. In the postcolonial period I explore continuities with the colonial period and the uses of nostalgia as a means of contestation when other possibilities are limited.

  • Bugs, Tariffs and Colonies the Political Economy of Wine Trade 1860-1970 Giulia Meloni and Johan Swinnen
    Bugs, Tariffs and Colonies The Political economy of Wine Trade 1860-1970 Giulia Meloni and Johan Swinnen Commentator : Ugo Gragnolati How to drive a country thirsty Other than by attempting the debellation of Phylloxera, France coped with wine shortage through trade policies. The combination of these policies explains much of the wine trade in 1860-1970. 1/11 Trade policies ● 1870-1900: Import wine from Spain and Italy, but with growing tariffs from 1890. ● 1875-1900: Import raisins from Greece, but with growing tariffs from 1890. ● 1880-1930: Stimulate wine production in North Africa, but with growing tariffs on Tunisia and Morocco from 1880 and non-tariff measures also on Algeria from 1930. 2/11 Change of trade partners 3/11 Turning point By 1880 grafting and hybridization produced solid outcomes. By 1900, French domestic production had recovered, with two consequences: ● Increasing supply led wine prices to fall between 1880-1905. ● French domestic producers lobbied for protectionism. 4/11 World wars and aftermath 5/11 Question 1: Effect of wine export on locals Did the expansion of vine plantations in North Africa occur on new plots of land or did it substitute other cultivations? 6/11 Question 2: Battling Phylloxera Apparently, the spread of Phylloxera in North Africa was less dramatic than it was in France. Is this an example of laggard’s advantage? 7/11 Question 3: Knowledge transfer Did winemakers in North Africa employ and train the local labor force, or did they import most of it from France? What accounts do we possibly have of knowledge transfer? 8/11 Question 4: Quality and Tunisian export According to the 1890 trade agreement, Tunisian wine exported to France had to be kept below 11°.

    mediterr_2012_EN_Mise en page 1 24/02/12 11:07 Page1 2012 2012 THE MEDITERRANEAN DIET FOR SUSTAINABLE REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT > The 2012 edition of Mediterra takes the mobilising potential of the Mediterranean Diet as a basis and proposes a multidimensional itinerary involving sociodemo- graphics, health, ecology, enterprise, geo-economics and citizens’ initiative. > Consumers in the countries of the Mediterranean Basin have progressively changed their dietary practices as they have gradually become caught up in the dynamics of urbanisation and the globalisation of agricultural trade. They are adhering less and less to the Mediterranean Diet, despite the fact that it is the basis of their identity and one of the major assets of the region. Pressures on natural resources and the emergence of new private actors are compounding the complexity of diet-related issues. THE MEDITERRANEAN DIET > Already the subject of widespread sociocultural and scientific debate and research, the Mediterranean Diet merits reconsideration from the political point of view FOR SUSTAINABLE REGIONAL given the growing awareness of the strategic dimension of agriculture and the crucial role played by food production in the stability and development of societies. DEVELOPMENT This diet, whose health-promoting virtues are widely recognised and which UNESCO has now listed as part of the intangible cultural heritage of humanity, is now raising questions in the fields of environmental responsibility and political action to promote greater regional cooperation. Cie© & This report has been produced under the direction of the International Centre for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies (CIHEAM), which is an intergovernmental organisation for training, research and cooperation in the fields of agriculture, food and sustainable rural development in the Mediterranean region.
