Quel plus bel exemple que la métropole de Paris pour décliner le droit comme facteur d’attractivité, tant l’enjeu de compétitivité juridique et économique est essentiel et ce, autant pour répondre à la fragmentation des places européennes qu’à l’émergence des grandes métropoles asiatiques ? À bien des égards, la place juridique de Paris se démarque des autres capitales et représente un lieu propice au conseil juridique et au règlement des litiges internationaux, notamment en raison du récent éparpillement des acteurs financiers mondiaux rassemblés auparavant dans la City londonienne pour accéder au marché unique européen et de la délocalisation du siège de l’Autorité bancaire européenne à Paris. Le présent ouvrage décrit l’attractivité économique de la place juridique de Paris sous tous ses angles. Il souligne l’importance fondamentale de raisonner en termes de « place », à l’instar des grandes métropoles des affaires, et relève l’existence d’un véritable écosystème d’acteurs contribuant au rayonnement de Paris comme centre d’excellence juridique. Pour se distinguer des places juridiques de Londres, Singapour, Amsterdam, New York, Bruxelles ou encore Francfort, la métropole parisienne mesure et décrit objectivement ses nombreux atouts ainsi que ses quelques faiblesses afin de mieux les isoler et d’y remédier en formulant des propositions d’amélioration en toute transparence et de la sorte consolider l’influence de Paris à l’étranger et affirmer son identité de place internationale du droit. De nombreux chercheurs et spécialistes français et internationaux, en économie et en droit, ont uni leurs forces, leurs études et leurs expertises qualitatives et quantitatives et compilé leurs résultats afin de parvenir à la publication de cet ouvrage.

The topic of women’s competition has gained significant recent momentum. This book provides direct evidence of this growth and is the first scholarly volume to focus specifically on the topic. In general, the included chapters provide a definitive view of the current state of knowledge regarding women’s competition. Many of the chapters are theoretically grounded in an evolutionary framework, such that the authors investigate the adaptive nature of women’s competitive behavior, motivations, and cognitions. Other chapters rely on a different framework, with these authors instead arguing that sociocultural sources shape women's competition. In addition, while the book is primarily about women, some contributors focus their chapters on issues faced by adolescent girls, or mention developmental trajectories for young girls through to adulthood. Some authors focus on nonhuman females to provide a stronger background for understanding women. It is hoped that the information within this volume will serve as a source of inspiration to help guide future directions for research.

Landscape is central to tourism. It is key to the development, marketing/promotion, and consumption of tourism destinations, to triggering and sustaining tourism markets, and to enticing tourist dreams, fantasies, and behaviors. From ‘sight-seeing’ practices—at the basis of all tourism activities—landscape figures prominently all the way to the overall spatial planning and management of a destination for tourism development. The intertwined relationship between tourism and landscape comes with a series of costs and benefits, in the context of tourism landscapes. Landscapes of tourism reflect and stage recreational trends, multifunctional livelihood systems, conflicts and opportunities for employment and income generation, as well as human, cultural, and natural resource management and use. This Special Issue aims to enhance the interdisciplinary scientific dialogue on these issues and challenges, while highlighting their range and significance for tourism and the landscape, in terms of theory, empirical practice, approach, policy, ethics, and future prospects. Some of the questions posed for consideration here are: What are landscapes of tourism, for whom and how/why? What is the role of the landscape in tourism promotion, attraction, and experience? How does tourism affect the landscape? What lessons do the history and geography of tourism have to offer to tourism landscape stewardship? How may we best plan for and manage the landscape in the context of various forms of tourism growth and spread, at various scales? Scholarly advances in the past few decades have steadily built on a diverse—but spread-out and not adequately connected—bibliographical basis for future research. Much remains to be understood and exchanged as landscape and tourism—two highly complex and multifaceted scientific areas—come together in the scope of this Special Issue in a variety of ways across time, space, and culture.
