One of iconic Africa's Big Five, the African buffalo is the largest African bovine or antelope that occurs throughout most of sub-Sahara and in a wide range of ecosystems from savanna to rainforest. The African buffalo is also one of the most successful large African mammals in terms of abundance and biomass. This species thus represents a powerful model to enhance our understanding of African biogeography and wildlife conservation, ecology and management. Edited by four researchers experienced in different aspects of the African buffalo's biology, this volume provides an exhaustive compilation of knowledge on an emblematic species that stands out as an important component of African natural and human ecosystems. It delivers a global view of the African buffalo and all known aspects of its ecology and management. This book will appeal to students, scholars, scientists and wildlife managers as well as those enthusiastic about the charismatic species. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Abandon progressif de la traction vapeur, électrification des lignes, adoption du moteur diesel, trains à grande vitesse... Pour l’historien des techniques, et notamment pour celui qui s’intéresse à l’histoire des chemins de fer, le mode de traction est un indicateur privilégié, révélateur des grands choix technologiques d’une époque. Grâce à sa solide érudition en matière d’histoire ferroviaire, Clive Lamming restitue l’évolution du matériel roulant de la SNCF dans le cadre de son contexte historique et l’explique en fonction des spécificités de la grande entreprise publique. Au-delà de la description détaillée du matériel et d’une histoire technicienne de la traction, les conditions d’exploitation du réseau français sont ici analysées en fonction de l’époque et à l’échelle de l’ensemble du système ferroviaire. Les processus de décision sont quant à eux replacés dans le cadre technique, économique et humain qui les a engendrés. L’un des mérites de l’ouvrage est de révéler pour la première fois l’importance de la composante humaine dans ces processus de décision. Ainsi, on mesure à quel point l’héritage de la culture technique propre à la SNCF pèse dans la conception du matériel nouveau et dans les principaux choix. Justice est finalement rendue aux grands ingénieurs de la direction du Matériel tels André Chapelon, Jean Dupuy, Marcel Garreau ou Fernand Nouvion… qui, par leur compétence et leur engagement per­sonnel, ont largement contribué au renouvellement de la science ferroviaire dans le monde.

L'archéologie est communément distinguée des autres sciences humaines, en particulier des sciences du passé, par son objet d'étude qui est, par essence, l'homme à travers les vestiges matériels, de l'objet jusqu'au site archéologique et son environnement. Mais alors que ces restes tangibles des sociétés passées sont descriptibles, caractérisables, classables dans des typologies, comment aborder et interpréter les vides et les silences documentaires qui n'ont pas laissé de traces manifestes ? La problématique de l'absence est commune à toutes les approches archéologiques et à toutes les aires chronoculturelles. Dans les articles de ce volume, issus de communications présentées lors de la 12e Journée Doctorale d'archéologie de l'université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne (ED 112), les doctorants tentent, à travers des indices indirects, de définir, de mesurer, d'expliquer ces vides et ces silences, voire de les combler. Face à la nature incomplète ou biaisée des sources archéologiques, des solutions méthodologiques sont proposées et appliquées à des problématiques et à des contextes variés, à la faveur d'approches croisées, multidimensionnelles et multiscalaires. Archaeology is usually distinguished from other human sciences (especially these concerning the past) on behalf of its subject: man through material remains, from the scale of a single object to that of the archaeological site and its environment. But while these tangible remains of past societies are describable, characterizable and able to be classified in typologies, we are left to wonder: how do we address and interpret voids and documentary silences that did not leave any patent trace? The problematics of absence is a shared concern among all archaeological approaches and all time periods. In this volume's papers, issued from oral presentations held during the 12th Journée Doctorale d'archéologie of the Paris Panthéon Sorbonne University (ED 112), PhD candidates attempt, through indirect clues, to define.

"Just War scholarship has adapted to contemporary crises and situations. But its adaptation has spurned debate and conversation--a method and means of pushing its thinking forward. Now the Just War tradition risks becoming marginalized. This concern may seem out of place as Just War literature is proliferating, yet this literature remains welded to traditional conceptualizations of Just War. Caron E. Gentry and Amy E. Eckert argue that the tradition needs to be updated to deal with substate actors within the realm of legitimate authority, private military companies, and the questionable moral difference between the use of conventional and nuclear weapons. Additionally, as recent policy makers and scholars have tried to make the Just War criteria legalistic, they have weakened the tradition's ability to draw from and adjust to its contemporaneous setting. The essays in The Future of Just War seek to reorient the tradition around its core concerns of preventing the unjust use of force by states and limiting the harm inflicted on vulnerable populations such as civilian noncombatants. The pursuit of these challenges involves both a reclaiming of traditional Just War principles from those who would push it toward greater permissiveness with respect to war, as well as the application of Just War principles to emerging issues, such as the growing use of robotics in war or the privatization of force. These essays share a commitment to the idea that the tradition is more about a rigorous application of Just War principles than the satisfaction of a checklist of criteria to be met before waging "just" war in the service of national interest"--
