Un nombre toujours croissant d'actifs de tous âges n'ont pas accès à une vie financière, professionnelle, sociale, culturelle, qui soit digne et décente. Ils vivent dans les interstices du contrat social et de l'organisation produits par la société industrielle. Ils ont une connaissance intime de cette période de transition entre économies et sociétés matérielles et immatérielles, sont porteurs de visions et projets créateurs de réalités économiques et sociales innovantes et durables, citoyennes. Collectivités territoriales, mairies pourraient reconnaître le travail immatériel de ces "nomades" locaux.

First book to examine linguistic encounters in tourism in Africa in detailThis book explores the relationship between imperial formations and individual encounters at African tourist sites – spaces of leisure, healing and work. It examines how encounters between tourists and hosts tend to be constructed along colonial thought lines and considers how players in the hospitality industry do not interact as coeval participants, but are racialised, scripted and positioned according to colonially-established order. The authors focus on the language of these encounters, not only speech, performance and response, but also silence, resonance, emptiness, noise – objectified, materialised, evasive and confusing. Through its exploration of language in these encounters, the volume shows that ruination is the one feature that is omnipresent in the multiple and diverse tourist settings of the postcolonial world.

Fills a gap in the literature with its focus on the journey as a complex and meaningful part of travel Taking a critical approach to the air passenger experience, this book considers the representations, embodied practices and materialities of air travel. Concerned with the politics and social justice issues of travel and mobility, it examines the passenger and their experience of the airport, fellow passengers, flying during the COVID-19 pandemic, and response to the issue of air travel sustainability. It explores the diverse experiences of those with a disability or fear of flying. The volume brings the journey to the fore as a complex and meaningful experience, filling a gap in the social science research of tourist behaviour where, traditionally, the focus has been the destination experience. The book will be of interest to scholars from a range of social science disciplines and fields of study including tourism studies, mobility studies, cultural studies, and disability studies.Contributors Chapter 1.

Addresses the importance of the local turn in tourism in the post-Covid tourism landscapeIn a world that is subject to rapid change and cascading crises this book considers the vital importance of local communities to grounded, just and sustainable tourism futures. Embracing local tourism as relational, the contributors examine how tourism can be reoriented to better connect people, place and planet. This local turn starts by centring local communities at the heart of tourism and identifies ways to ensure local community rights and benefits in tourism. Presenting concepts, case studies and practitioner insights, the chapters explore what putting locals first might mean; the constraints of markets and the promise of alternatives; ‘tours’ and ‘turns’ offering possibilities for circles, cycles and connections; approaches for democratising tourism; and building an ethos of relatedness through a relational imperative to face the future together.

Neoliberals often point to improvements in public health and nutrition as examples of globalisation's success, but this book argues that the corporate food and medicine industries are destroying environments and ruining living conditions across the world. Scientist Stan Cox expertly draws out the strong link between Western big business and environmental destruction. This is a shocking account of the huge damage that drug manufacturers and large food corporations are inflicting on the health of people and crops worldwide. Companies discussed include Wal-Mart, GlaxoSmithKline, Tyson Foods and Monsanto. On issues ranging from the poisoning of water supplies in South Asia to natural gas depletion and how it threatens global food supplies, Cox shows how the demand for profits is always put above the public interest. While individual efforts to 'shop for a better world' and conserve energy are laudable, Cox explains that they need to be accompanied by an economic system that is grounded in ecological sustainability if we are to find a cure for our Sick Planet.Preface 1.

Housing has become a hot topic. The media is filled with stories of individual housing hardship and of major property-related financial crises: of crippling personal debts, rundown social housing, homelessness, mass demolition, spiralling prices, unaffordability and global recession. This book links all of these through a radical analysis that puts housing at the heart of critical economic and political debate. The authors show that these problems arise from the fact that houses are no longer seen primarily as homes for living in, but rather as a source of profit. Case studies from the UK, the US and other western countries are set into a overview of how housing has changed over the last few decades. The book also examines campaigns for better housing and explores possibilities for a different approach to this most fundamental of human needs.Preface and Acknowledgements Introduction Part I - Housing and Neoliberalism 1.

In 2050, it is predicted that 4.7bn or nearly 50% of the world's population will take an international holiday. But can humankind meet that forecast given the issues of ageing populations, peak oil, the global financial crisis and climate change? This book constructs scenarios from Shanghai to Edinburgh, Seoul to California encompassing complex topics such as human trafficking, conferences, transport, food tourism or technological innovation. This is a blue skies thinking book about the future of tourism and a thought-provoking analytical commentary.Authors Acknowledgements Forewords – F. de Klerk Wolters – G. Lipman – D.

An astonishing 94.6% of businesses fail to sell. They close at an enormous cost to the owner, their family, their staff and the economy. Most business owners realise too late that there are only two destinations for any business: a sale or closure. You’ve got to build to $ell.Sweat, Scale, $ell shares real business-building stories about how ordinary business owners took charge of their fate using the Asset of Value™ method. With Pavlo Phitidis, they Sweated to reshape their business to be relevant to a changing world; they built a solid foundation for Scale; and then they pressed hard to ramp up growth in preparation for $ale to create a business any buyer would want. Pavlo draws on 25 years of direct experience in conceptualising and building businesses across four continents. Having started, built and sold 12 businesses generating in excess of $300m, he founded the Asset of Value™ method, a practical approach to build a winning business. As co-founder of Aurik, he has worked with over 2 000 established businesses across most sectors in the economy, from family businesses to partnerships to sole business owners.Sweat, Scale, $ell is audaciously optimistic as it shows every business owner and entrepreneur where to find growth in a no-growth economy, make an impact and secure big returns.

Notre exploration des fantasmes idéologiques accompagnant la perpétuation du capitalisme se poursuit, et nous fait passer de l'utopie d'une production mécanisée toujours plus efficace où la machine libèrerait l'humanité du travail, à la recherche de la vie éternelle dans la multiplication de thérapies, de disciplines, de prothèses et de big data visant à porter les corps et les esprits vers les sommets. Il reste à en analyser la portée, en interrogeant ce que ce fantasme représente dans la justification actuelle du capitalisme. Passé un seuil, la capacité technique démesurée excède la condition humaine. Enfin, le transhumanisme suppose une nature humaine à dépasser mais c'est cette hypothèse d'une nature qu'il reste à interroger.

Pour l'auteur, la concrétisation de la vision de développement du Cameroun passe par une insertion sociale des jeunes qui composent la majorité de la population du pays. Il en appelle donc à la mobilisation et l'engagement de tous les jeunes quel que soit leur niveau social, à la cause du progrès national. Il élabore un projet d'insertion socioprofessionnelle, à l'endroit des jeunes Camerounais, adapté à la situation socio-économique du pays et qu'il intègre à un système économique novateur, tributaire d'une idéologie d'insertion, le tout reposant sur des valeurs propres à l'essence africaine.

Les nouvelles technologies annoncent avec l'usine du futur, la robotisation et le numérique la suppression de nombreux emplois et la multiplication des start-up. Mais la place de la machine dans l'économie et l'imaginaire social révèle la platitude idéologique de ces soi-disant « révolutions ». La fascination pour le progrès technique va de pair avec le pessimisme du travail émietté, précarisé et raréfié, dans un monde plus sécuritaire. Nous interrogeons cette fascination, afin de dégager la réflexion des prophéties d'experts qui, sous prétexte d'une incessante nouveauté, imposent un futur sans avenir.
