This thesis proposes a thorough analysis of the resilience of socio-environmental in two communities of hunter / gatherers, Baka of Cameroon. These communities formerly nomadic lived in the forest where they drew most of their life and survival. Today they have been displaced from their ancestral lands for the sake of creating protected areas, agro-industrial, forestry and execution of major mining projects, these communities are more than ever in touch Standing with "big black" or Bantu largely influence their lifestyle (hunting, gathering and fishing) and often determine their future. To cope with these changes, the government of Cameroon and national and international organizations through extensive programs accompany gradually Baka to rebuild a new life that incorporates the requirements of "modernity." Despite this support, these people are still under the influence of scourges such as alcoholism, disease, malnutrition, marginalization, in schooling, non-recognition of their rights, etc… How do they cope with the changes occurring in their lives? The thesis aims to identify the different mutations, to describe and analyze the strategies established by the Baka to adapt. Some mutations may appear on the surface without question a fundamental attachment to the forest and some ancestral values. However, different exogenous pressures (such as settlement, globalization) and endogenous (such as attitude of individuals, transmission) which determine the degree of progress of the various mutations should not be underestimated, as they are a threat to development. ; Cette thèse propose une analyse approfondie de la résilience des mutations socio-environnementales au sein d'une communauté de chasseurs/cueilleurs, les Baka du Cameroun.

International audience ; This paper attempts to understand conceptual models on which knowledge and management practices of traditional crop diversity are based and whether these models collide with the knowledge formalized in institutions for agricultural development, or complete them. The originality of the approach is to deal not with knowledge as a body of operational data but with their social meaning and values. It is from this understanding and recognition of mutual contributions of different forms of knowledge that a symmetry of exchange between actors can be considered. The example investigated is that of the slash-and-burn agriculture of the Rio Negro, in the north-western Brazilian Amazon.

About the International Monetary System, by Benjamin J. Cohen
The outlook for the world financial system is clouded by a variety of problems - volatility of floating exchange rates, inefficient management of the multiple-reserve-asset standard, the massive burden of balance-of-payments financing. No doubt it would be excessively pessimistic, not to say alarmist, to predict outright collapse: the system has shown considerable resiliency, after all, in recent years. The potential for improvement exists in our international monetary arrangements, but it is not infinite. The system could be better managed, both efficiency and consistency could be promoted. Why not begin? But nothing can ensure that monetary relations will always remain stable and free of policy conflict. So long as there will be politically sovereign states and formally independent national currencies, there will be international monetary problems.
