I argue that these colonial legacies reached a watershed moment in 1989 with the headscarf affair and further provoked violent and socially divisive events such as the 2005 riots and the 2015 terrorist attacks. Furthermore, I argue that the effects of France’s colonial past have created a psychological empire that is negatively affecting many of France’s youths of immigrant

An initial estimate of a panel model of an- nual data for Guadeloupe, Martinique, Mayotte, Reunion Island, French Poly- nesia, and New Caledonia (NC), over the period 1990–2012, shows that a 1% appreciation of the euro against the dollar reduces the number of tourists by 0.47%. The results also confirm the negative impact of distance/transport costs and the chikungunya crisis. Conversely, stronger growth in France or the Unit- ed States and a higher level of wealth in the collectives promote tourism.

  • Overseas France: Federalism Through the Backdoor, and Across Oceans” ALBER Elisabeth, Eurac ______
    Multidisciplinary Authors’ Workshop Federalism and Conflict Resolution Institute of Federalism Summary – Presentation “Overseas France: Federalism Through the Backdoor, and Across Oceans” ALBER Elisabeth, Eurac ____________________________________________________________________________________ Manon-Julie Borel The European Union’s borders don’t stop on the Mediterranean Sea as it is often claimed in the context of migration. Overseas territories from different European countries challenge the classical imagination of states and their territory. The example of French overseas territories shows us how a country organizes these territories and the challenges it faces by it. While France disposes of a rather centralized political system, its overseas territories add a strong component of federal asymmetry to the country’s administration. The French overseas territories are very diverse one from each other. This has not only to do with their different geographical situations but also with their very pluralist administrations. Each of them is organized in a different way when it comes to their relationship with the French metropole, with the European Union and with their geographical neighboring areas (regional cooperation e.g. Caribbean association). Furthermore, this has an impact on their degree of autonomy, their law-making process, administrative questions and on their financial resources. The French Constitution differs between the following three types of overseas territories. The first category are the “Overseas regions and departments”. To these territories, everything that applies to the French metropole, is applying the same way. The second category are the “overseas collectivities”. These collectivities dispose of a certain degree of administrative autonomy. “Collectivities with special status”, in contrast to the first two categories, are characterized by their law- making power.

  • Smoking Among Immigrant Groups in Metropolitan
    Khlat et al. BMC Public Health (2018) 18:479 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-018-5379-8 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Smoking among immigrant groups in metropolitan France: prevalence levels, male-to-female ratios and educational gradients Myriam Khlat1* , Damien Bricard2,1 and Stéphane Legleye3,4 Abstract Background: Although the French population comprises large and diverse immigrant groups, there is little research on smoking disparities by geographical origin. The aim of this study is to investigate in this country smoking among immigrants born in either north Africa, sub-Saharan Africa or French overseas départements. Methods: The data originate from the 2010 Health Barometer survey representative of metropolitan France. The subsample of 20,211 individuals aged 18–70 years (born either in metropolitan France or in the above-mentioned geographical regions) was analysed using logistic regression. Results: Both immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa and immigrants from overseas départements were protected from smoking compared to the reference population, and the former had a distinctive strongly reversed educational gradient in both genders. Returned former settlers from the French colonies in North Africa (repatriates) had the highest smoking levels. Natives from the Maghreb (Maghrebins) showed considerable gender discordance, with men having both a higher prevalence (borderline significance) and a reversed gradient and women having lower prevalence than the reference population. Conclusion: Immigrants from regions of the world in stage 1 of the cigarette epidemic had relatively low smoking levels and those from regions in stage 2 had relatively high smoking levels. Some groups had a profile characteristic of late phases of the cigarette epidemic, and others, some of which long-standing residents, seemed to be positioned at its early stages.

  • Overseas France and Minority and Indigenous Rights: Dream Or Reality?
    IJGR 10,3 f3-palaytret-221-252 6/18/04 6:27 AM Page 221 International Journal on Minority and Group Rights 10: 221–252, 2004. 221 © Koninklijke Brill NV. Printed in the Netherlands. Overseas France and Minority and Indigenous Rights: Dream or Reality? GALLIANNE PALAYRET* Si les territoires d’outre-mer sont des collectivités territoriales de la République peuplées de citoyens français, le droit qui s’y applique ne confond pas en toutes occasions le pêcheur des îles Tuamotu et le conducteur du métro parisien. Yves Pimont** 1. Introduction To deal with something that does not exist is a perilous exercise. How to tackle something which appears elusive? Minorities do not appear in French positive law: the French legal order only recognizes the minority as opposed to the majority, as an arithmetic concept, in an electoral context, or applied to children under 18. The notion of minority as a group is ignored in French law. The reasons for this ignorance are well known. The ignorance of minorities appears as a consequence of the individualist conception of the law and of human rights, which dominated at the time of the Revolution, and which deeply marked the French legal order. The total absence of the concept in the texts demonstrates not only the political refusal to recognize it but also the intellectual impossibility to legally ‘think’ of the notion of minority. We no longer live completely with an individualistic conception of rights and some collective group rights have been recognized. Formerly the law only recog- nized equal individuals which were subjected to identical rules, however, today, the social body has been divided into categories subjected to distinct regimes.

  • A Comparative LCA Study of Reunion Island and France
    sustainability Article Environmental Overcost of Single Family Houses in Insular Context: A Comparative LCA Study of Reunion Island and France Leslie Ayagapin *,† and Jean Philippe Praene † PIMENT Laboratory, University of la Réunion, 97430 Le Tampon, La Réunion, France; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.:+262-693-937-706 † These authors contributed equally to this work. Received: 30 September 2020; Accepted: 21 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: The building and public works sector is, in France as in Europe, a major consumer of raw materials for both the manufacture of products and the construction of buildings and structures. This sector has a direct impact on the natural and built environment. This effect is even more pronounced in the case of isolated territories, such as islands. The latter have their own constraints (geographical location, production of the local grid mix) and particularities: very small territory, massive importation of goods in all fields, such as food, automobile, building, and others). In this study, we focus on the building branch of the construction industry, which covers housing (single-family houses and apartment blocks). The study is based on the analysis of about twenty single-family houses built in metropolitan France and Reunion Island. The construction standards for these two regions comply with European standards (CE) and French regulations. However, in the case of Reunion Island, a tropical island, it applies in particular to the Thermal, Acoustic, and Ventilation Regulations for New Buildings in Overseas Departments and Regions (RTAA DROM). The approach that is used for the environmental assessment of single-family homes is the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), from cradle to grave.
