This book (Malagasy silkworms. Ecological and sociological issues) reflects the achievements and scientific activities of the university cooperation project for the 'Management and sustainable enhancement of the endemic silkworm Borocera cajani in a forested area of the Antananarivo region" 'financed by the CIUF-CUD (University Development Cooperation in Belgium). The first section of the work deals with the biological and ecological aspects of silkworms in Madagascar-with emphasis on landibe (Borocera cajanus Vinson, 1863). The second section studies the ecological and botanical dimensions of the habitat of the species, namely, tapia formations (Uapaca bojeri Baill.), by focussing on the silvicultural and botanical aspects, the causes and indicators of its decline, etc. The third section provides information about the valorization of the silk industry and covers a variety of approaches including the compilation of an inventory of edible wild plant resources and their chemical characteristics. This section also looks at the role played by silk in the rural economy, and the knowledge and skills of local communities. The third section ends by taking a look at the socio-institutional context as well as interactions between the players involved in the industry. This work comprises 21 scientific contributions written by 33 authors ; some of them are in english and all the abstracts are written in french and in english. Several chapters have already been published elsewhere. This book is aimed at all those who are passionately interested in Malagasy society and biodiversity, and the potential value of this large island in the context of sustainable development.

Building God’s Kingdom studies how the encounter with nineteenth century Madagascar influenced the Norwegian Protestant mission. Drawing upon rich Norwegian and Malagasy sources, entangled and multivocal stories are allowed to unfold, revealing the complex dynamics of mission encounters. Tracing Malagasy agency and pursuit of churchly independence in pre-colonial and colonial Madagascar, this study explores the power-struggles between the Malagasy, the missionaries and between the mission in Norway and Madagascar. Through careful attention to context and agency, Karina Hestad Skeie provides new perspectives on the interplay between the local and the global in Christian missions, and on the centrality and restrictions of local agency on mission policy.

Nitari-dàlana ho amin'ny fandalinana ny ara-kolontsainan'ny rafi-piaraha-monina any Mélanésie, lafiny jeografy, i Joël Bonnemaison. Tamin'ny faritra iray anivon'ny afovoan-tany malagasy, Tsarahonenana (Lemak'Ambohibary, Vakinankaratra) no nanombohany ny fikarohany. Roa polo taona taty aoriana dia niverina tamin'io faritra io i Chantai Blanc Pamard sy Hervé Rakoto Ramiarantsoa, mpikaroka amin'ny taranja jeografy, handinika izay fiovàna nisy nandritry izay fe-potoana izay. Maka lafiny roa ity fiverenana tany an-toerana ity : sady niantefa taminy Tsarahonenana no nijery akaiky an'Andranomangamanga, ilay « efitra » any antendrombohitr'Ankaratra nalain'ny mponina tamin'ny taona 1967. Ity boky ity dia maka endrika teny ifanakalozana amin'izay efa nosoratan'i Joël Bonnemaison. Maro ny loha-hevitra voavaofy ao, miainga avy amin'ny zavaniova hita maso : ny habetsahany mponina voavelon'ny faritra, ny fitantànan'ny eo an-toerana ny tontolo iainana, ny fomba fanao ho fanamasahana ny tany, ny heriny lasitra ara-kolontsaina, ny fitrangàn'ny fari-tany... Ny resaka fampandrosoana no fototra amin'izany rehetra izany. Mitantara ny fianarany ny fomba amam-panaon'ny mpandalina jeografy i Joël Bonnemaison, any amin'ny faran'ny boky, no sady milaza koa ny fahitany indray an'io toerana nanaovany fikarohana voalohany io. Ny heviny manokana mikasika ny fivoaran'ny eny ambanivohitra no velariny. Anisan'ny asa farany nosoratany ity boky ity. Ilay faritra malagasy tsy nohadinoiny no iantefan'izany, ary izay voasoratra dia tena mitondra fampianarana ny amin'ny atao hoe jeografy ara-kolontsaina. Maro ny sary voarakitra ao anatin'ny boky, ary ny mpiandany amy ny (University, ireo izay manana andraikitra amin'ny fampandrosoana, ary koa izay rehetra liana amin'ny tany an-dalam-pandrosoana no iantefany. Mampitohy ny omaly sy ny anio i Tsarahonenana no sady maneho endrika vaovao amin'ny fomba fiainan'ny any ambanivohitra, amin'ny tany an-dalam-pandrosoana. Avant de fonder une géographie…
