En s'appuyant sur des observations ethnographiques longitudinales et des entretiens compréhensifs, cet article propose une description du fonctionnement socioculturel et une analyse des pratiques éducatives familiales des deux groupes considérés, ainsi qu'un regard sur l'évolution de ces facteurs dans le contexte mouvant du monde actuel. Une connaissance des pratiques éducatives de ces populations pourrait fournir aux enseignants et spécialistes des pistes de réflexion pour une meilleure prise en compte des besoins éducatifs des populations amérindiennes vivant sur les sites isolés des fleuves amazoniens et une adaptation de l'enseignement scolaire aux spécificités culturelles.

Attendu que de nombreux investisseurs s'arrachent les terres agricoles dans le monde entier, il est difficile de savoir qui s'implique dans quelle entreprise et quels pourraient en être les effets sur les populations locales. Une base de données internationale fait la lumière sur cette situation confuse.

The practice of cattle rustling, a persistent ancient tradition in the Adamaoua region, has evolved into a major threat, particularly at the borders with Nigeria. This organized criminal phenomenon poses a severe threat to the security of local populations and hinders trade between the two countries. To address this insecurity orchestrated by cattle bandits, the question arises regarding the explanatory dynamics and mechanisms that could manage transborder depredations. The resilience of cattle theft at the Adamaoua-Nigeria border appears linked to the deterritorialization of the threat, transboundary transhumance and the deficit of state governance in its peripheries. In response to this situation, authorities have implemented sovereign easures and bilateral actions within the framework of cooperation with Nigeria, which have proven effective in suppressing the sources of insecurity.

Contrary to the positive perception of protected areas constructed by political entities as mechanisms for protecting biodiversity put under pressure by the demographic growth of populations and their needs, they have gradually revealed themeselves as areas of turbulence where insecure dynamics proliferate, ie ecosystems that escape state regulation and impact the security of surrounding localities. Protected areas in northern regions of Cameroon have thus contributed to the sustainable dissemination of vectors of crime and others forms of security threats. The question is therefore to know in what way protected areas constitute a security threat and how has the state reacted to the situation in the northern regions of Cameroun? The hypothesis defended is to show that protected areas are islands of cross-border insecurity, hence the process of state security.

The situation, development lines and perspectives of small and medium-sized towns in Germany and France are compared and similarities and differences within the central place systems and the spatial planning of both countries are discussed. With different approaches to definition, these towns have received new attention in both countries in recent years, albeit with different focal points. The discussion covers the positions and lines of development of these towns in the respective central place systems; the perspectives of their future development regarding the strengthening of central place functions, their attractiveness as residential and economic locations, and contexts of rural regional development and services of general interest. In addition, aspects of research on small and medium-sized towns as well as approaches to spatial policy in both countries are addressed.
