Offered by Sciences Po,
International migrations :a global issue (FUN)

The world is moving, but not all opinions and governments are willing to accept this poorly understood reality.

Échanges et proximité : la première loi de la géographie (FUN)

La mondialisation et les nouvelles technologies semblent avoir affaibli les effets de la proximité et de la distance dans l'organisation de l'espace des sociétés. Pourtant les marques profondes laissées par des siècles de restriction des échanges du fait des difficultés et du coût de franchissement de la distance sont encore très apparentes dans l'organisation du monde. Les principales régions économiques, les grandes aires culturelles, des alliances territoriales se sont formées dans ce contexte. Aujourd'hui encore, le potentiel de la proximité continue à structurer les réseaux d'échanges avec leurs inégalités et leurs asymétries.
