Abstract

En 1763, l’Espagne n’est plus en mesure de défendre seule La Havane. Désireuse de développer une économie coloniale, elle négocie une réforme politique et économique avec les élites locales. Ces élites, encouragées à participer activement et financièrement à la défense de l’Île, reçoivent en contrepartie certains avantages, notamment pour favoriser la production du sucre de canne. La monarchie suscite une compétition pour l’obtention de titres de Castille et gagne ainsi la fidélité d’une quarantaine de familles. Rapidement, ces familles de planteurs enrichis, qui forment la saccharocratie, deviennent de formidables alliées de la Couronne espagnole et s’avèrent, à Cuba, des partenaires incontournables. Dans les années 1820, bien que ces aristocrates soient de plus en plus fragilisés par leur endogamie et par la concurrence des commerçants, ils seront un frein à l’évolution de Cuba vers l’indépendance. En 1763 España ya no está en condiciones de defender sola La Habana. Deseosa de desarrollar una economía colonial, negocia con las élites criollas una reforma política y económica. Dichas élites, animadas a participar activa y financieramente en la defensa de la isla, reciben privilegios como contrapartida. La monarquía española fideliza a unas cuarenta familias otorgándoles títulos de Castilla y, rápidamente, estas familias de plantadores enriquecidos -la sacarocracia- se convertirán en un formidable aliado de la Corona española. Hacia 1820, debilitados por su endogamia y la competencia de los comerciantes, estos mismos aristócratas constituirán un freno en la evolución de Cuba hacia su independencia.

Abstract

In the field of higher education research, one of the most fascinating observations is the consistent and permanent expansion of higher education systems worldwide since the end of the Second World War. Undoubtedly, the predominant approach to address these developments has been through quantitative analysis, as well as international comparisons. The following work examines the particularities of the Venezuelan context with the aim of identifying specific features of this worldwide phenomenon in this South American case. Through a combination of qualitative methods, the author proposes a biographical approach for the study of higher education inclusion processes, which takes into account the perspectives and experiences of those who have been targeted by an ambitious higher education expansion process. The most distinctive feature of this work would be its methodological contribution to the field of higher education research. One could also argue that the ethnographic account of the Bolivarian Missions of education in Chavez’s Venezuela is both original and unprecedented. Furthermore, the writing approach bridges the interests of both academics, practitioners of the field and members of the general public.

Abstract

In Sugar in the Social Life of Medieval Islam Tsugitaka Sato explores the actual day-to-day life in medieval Muslim societies through different aspects of sugar. Drawing from a wealth of historical sources - chronicles, geographies, travel accounts, biographies, medical and pharmacological texts, and more - he describes sugarcane cultivation, sugar production, the sugar trade, and sugar's use as a sweetener, a medicine, and a symbol of power. He gives us a new perspective on the history of the Middle East, as well as the history of sugar across the world. This book is a posthumous work by a leading scholar of Middle Eastern and Islamic studies in Japan who made many contributions to this field.
