    Keywords: Dogons (African people)
    Abstract: The Dogon are a group of people who live primarily in the districts of Bandiagara and Douentza in the western African nation of Mali. Some Dogon reside in Burkina Faso. This file consists of 30 documents, two are in the original French. Most focus geographically on the Mopti Region of Mali from ca. 1935 through 1970. General ethnographic information on the Dogon can be found in Paulme and Griaule for the 1930s, Paulu Marti up to the mid-1950s, and Bouju, ca. 1980s. Nearly half of the works focus on Dogon religion and art. Griaule wrote the classic works on Dogon religious thought and myth, which have been critiqued and defended. Griaule and Dieterlen also carried out a sociological analysis of Dogon religion. More specific religious studies are Dieterlen's studies of the Dogon concept of the soul and the symbolism of Dogon sacrifices. Van Beek has written on witchcraft, religious statues and religious ceremonies. Imperato writes on masked dances, as does Griaule in his general ethnography. Analyses of Dogon art are found in Laude, Flam, and Segy. Verboven provides a sophisticated analysis of Dogon ritual movement and dance. Culture and personality studies are found in Parin et al. and Ganay. Other topics included in the file are games, ethnolinguistics, ethnobotany, food patterns, and marriage patterns

    Abstract: Embedded software is in almost every electronic device designed today. There is software hidden away inside our watches, microwaves, VCRs, cellular telephones, and pagers; the military uses embedded software to guide smart missiles and detect enemy aircraft; communications satellites, space probes, and modern medicine would be nearly impossible without it. Of course, someone has to write all that software, and there are thousands of computer scientists, electrical engineers, and other professionals who actually do. Each embedded system is unique and highly customized to the application at hand. As a result, embedded systems programming is a widely varying field that can take years to master. However, if you have some programming experience and are familiar with C or C++, you're ready to learn how to write embedded software. The hands-on, no-nonsense style of this book will help you get started by offering practical advice from someone who's been in your shoes and wants to help you learn quickly. The techniques and code examples presented here are directly applicable to real-world embedded software projects of all sorts. Even if you've done some embedded programming before, you'll still benefit from the topics in this book, which include: Testing memory chips quickly and efficiently Writing and erasing Flash memory Verifying nonvolatile memory contents with CRCs Interfacing to on-chip and external peripherals Device driver design and implementation Optimizing embedded software for size and speed So whether you're writing your first embedded program, designing the latest generation of hand-held whatchamacalits, or simply managing the people who do, this book is for you.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. La congestion routière en Europe
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: The problems caused by road congestion are frequently reported in the media and finding a solution to congestion ranks high on the agenda of politicians. Countless studies have been published detailing the number of working hours lost in traffic jams. The figures quoted in these studies are alarming and paint an apocalyptic picture of road congestion. However, besides the everyday congestion faced by motorists, differences of opinion are now starting to appear with regard to the scale of the problem and the ways in which it should be tackled. This Round Table attempted to define congestion and to determine the scale of the problem. It addressed the trends in congestion and the consequences of those trends. The Round Table then considered possible solutions to the congestion problem. Considering the extent of this problem in the European context, the Round Table report sheds light on one of the most visible malfunctions of transport systems.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Quels marchés pour les transports par voies navigables ?
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: Despite the fact that the freight transport market in Europe almost doubled in volume over the period 1970 to 1995, growth in the inland waterway sector has remained stagnant. Until now the waterways have primarily been used to transport goods produced by sectors that have been hard hit by industrial restructuring. However, the past does not necessarily hold the key to the future. Waterways can be readily incorporated into logistics chains in which regular supply streams and low transport costs are more important than speed. The transportation of hazardous materials and container transport also offer promising markets. The Round Table identified a number of policy measures which could help to promote development in the inland waterways sector (discontinuation of scrapping policies, support for the grouping of enterprises and the creation of co-operatives, incentives for private-sector investment). Reading the proceedings of this Round Table offers an opportunity to look at the inland waterways in a wholly new light which shows that there is a genuine future for this mode provided that operators are prepared to become entrepreneurs.

    Abstract: The Seminar, held in Paris in December 1998, was a forum for discussion, in a broad sense, gathering together people from international scientific circles and people responsible for the preparation of political decisions. Bringing together delegates from more than 30 European countries, it was the occasion to discuss the following four recurring topics: working conditions: effects of foreseen modifications of working time on both the security and health of drivers; access to, and future of, the profession; the economic stakes: business competitivity, subcontracting, competition not only between enterprises but also between countries; and the role and limits of public authorities.

    Abstract: Intended a both a textbook and a reference, Fourier Acoustics develops the theory of sound radiation uniquely from the viewpoint of Fourier Analysis. This powerful perspective of sound radiation provides the reader with a comprehensive and practical understanding which will enable him or her to diagnose and solve sound and vibration problems in the 21st Century. As a result of this perspective, Fourier Acoustics is able to present thoroughly and simply, for the first time in book form, the theory of nearfield acoustical holography, an important technique which has revolutionised the measurement of sound. Relying little on material outside the book, Fourier Acoustics will be invaluable as a graduate level text as well as a reference for researchers in academia and industry.

    Abstract: Despite the great interest in high performance, there is no widely accepted definition of what a high performance work organization is. Instead of our looking at what it is, perhaps it would be better to define a high-performance work organization by what it does.

    Abstract: Environmental Requirements for Electromechanical and Electrical Equipment is the definitive reference containing all of the background guidance, typical ranges, details of recommended test specifications, case studies and regulations covering the environmental requirements on designers and manufacturers of electrical and electromechanical equipment worldwide. The recent introduction of the European EMC directive is just one aspect of the requirements placed upon manufacturers and designers of electrical equipment. There are numerous national and international standards and specifications that describe the application environment in which equipment must function. Factors that must be taken into account include temperature, solar radiation, humidity, pressure, weather and the effects of water and salt, pollutants and contaminants, mechanical stresses and vibration, ergonomic considerations, electrical safety including EMC, reliability and performance. A broad range of standard tests exist which must be passed by equipment if it is to fulfil the requirements placed upon it. Ray Tricker is the author of a number of books describing the regulatory framework within which the electronics and electrical equipment industry must function, including Quality and Standards in Electronics, also published by Newnes. This latest volume will give the designer or manufacturer a first point of reference when negotiating the minefield that is the global market for their products. Companion to 'Quality and Standards in Electronics' Covers essential tests and regulations for equipment designers and manufacturers Likely to be of interest to major companies worldwide

    Abstract: La séparation opérée en Europe -- au moins sur le plan comptable -- entre l'infrastructure ferroviaire et l'exploitation des trains s'est accompagnée de l'introduction progressive de redevances d'accès à l'infrastructure destinées à couvrir les coûts de circulation des trains. Mais déterminer le montant et la forme de ces redevances n'est pas chose facile, faute d'expériences vraiment probantes dans ce domaine. De fait, les systèmes de redevances diffèrent sensiblement selon les pays et les objectifs poursuivis lors de la mise en place de ce type de tarification sont multiples, voire contradictoires. Face à ce constat, la Table Ronde a tenu à rappeler, à travers ses rapports introductifs et ses débats, quelques principes économiques fondamentaux qui éclairent ce que pourrait être un système rationnel de redevances d'usage des infrastructures ferroviaires. Elle permet ainsi de faire le point sur l'un des aspects déterminants de la réforme ferroviaire en Europe. Cette Table Ronde examine tout particulièrement l'expérience de l'Allemagne, de la France, du Royaume-Uni et de la Suède.

Réunissant des délégués de plus de trente pays d’Europe, il a été l’occasion de débats autour de quatre thèmes récurrents : - les conditions de travail, notamment les effets des modifications envisagées du temps de travail sur la sûreté du travail et la santé du conducteur ; - l’accès à la profession et le devenir de celle-ci ; - les enjeux économiques, que ce soit la compétitivité des entreprises, la sous-traitance, la concurrence entre entreprises ou entre pays ; - le rôle et les limites des autorités publiques : faut-il de nouveaux règlements ou ne doit-on pas avant tout veiller à appliquer les règlements existants ? Doit-on aller vers des conventions collectives ou des règlements nationaux/internationaux ? Quels contrôles instaurer et quelles doivent en être les modalités ?

    Abstract: The aim of every politician is to transform the city into an environmentally sustainable entity. However, while the planning and organisation of passenger services within cities is commonly perceived as a major issue, freight transport is not given the full attention it deserves. As a general rule, the role which freight transport plays in the economy of cities is simply not understood. What invariably attracts attention, on the other hand, is the added pollution and congestion caused by freight transport. Europe has recently produced a host of new urban development schemes which place more or less severe restrictions on freight movements in cities. While some cities have introduced measures in line with the town planning objectives of territorial development plans, others have adopted short-term solutions to traffic management problems. Since we know that cities are living entities whose vital processes can be disrupted, how can we be sure that all of these measures are a step in the right direction? Our lack of experience makes this a question we would be well advised to consider. The Round Table reviewed the various aspects of freight transport by examining experiences in different countries and by discussing some of the more innovatory approaches adopted.

Pour réduire ces coûts externes, l'internalisation procède à des ajustements des charges, taxes et réglementations destinées à maximiser l'efficience économique. Ce rapport : - résume la dimension théorique et pratique de l'internalisation ; - passe en revue les estimations récentes des coûts externes du transport ; - explore les diverses politiques qui pourraient être utilisées pour promouvoir efficacement l'internalisation ; - et évalue en termes monétaires le montant des incitations requises.

    Abstract: Faire de la ville un espace durablement respectueux de l'environnement est l'aspiration de tout homme politique. Mais contrairement aux transports de personnes, dont l'importance est communément admise, la planification et l'organisation des transports de marchandises ne reçoit pas toute l'attention qu'elle mérite. Le rôle économique du transport de marchandises dans la ville n'est pas toujours perçu, alors que la pollution et les encombrements qu'il génère sont invariablement montrés du doigt. On assiste en Europe à une floraison de projets d’aménagement urbain accompagnés de mesures de circulation plus ou moins restrictives limitant le transport de marchandises. Certaines villes adoptent des mesures relevant de la planification urbaine et de la gestion de l'espace, d’autres tentent d'apporter des solutions à court terme aux problèmes de circulation. Mais les villes étant des organismes vivants, dont le bon fonctionnement est susceptible d’être perturbé, comment être sûr que toutes ces dispositions vont dans la bonne direction ? Cette question essentielle mérite réflexion car nous manquons d'expérience dans ce domaine. La Table Ronde a examiné les différents aspects du transport de marchandises en ville en s'appuyant sur un large éventail d’expériences nationales et en analysant certaines des approches les plus novatrices.

    Abstract: This seminar, which took place on 2-3 October 1997 at the Josefow Conference Centre near Warsaw, set out to define the role and place of communication in the field of road safety, examine the different strategies of communication and identify their limits. The seminar was attended by 130 experts from 23 countries with ECMT membership or observer status. The discussions established that communication is an essential element of a global road safety policy in that it aims to inform, alert, educate, convince and ultimately alter people’s attitudes and behaviour. The resources employed and the channels of communication used can differ from country to country, depending on the topic addressed, the national culture and the goals to be achieved. Communication cannot be an end in itself, however: it can only be the complement of other measures. It must have a time frame within which the objectives set have to be attained. Evaluation of communication effectiveness is likewise essential.

    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: Alors que le marché européen des transports de marchandises a pratiquement doublé en volume entre 1970 et 1995, le transport par voie d’eau connaît une certaine stagnation. Jusqu'à présent, les voies d'eau ont surtout servi à transporter des produits que les restructurations industrielles ont frappé de plein fouet. Mais le passé ne préfigure pas nécessairement l’avenir. En effet, les voies d'eau peuvent aisément s’insérer dans des chaînes logistiques où la régularité d’approvisionnement et le bas coût de transport importent plus que la rapidité. Le transport de matières dangereuses ou les acheminements de conteneurs pourraient également être des marchés porteurs. La Table Ronde a identifié un large éventail d'actions susceptibles de faciliter le développement de la navigation intérieure (ne pas privilégier le déchirage de la cale, favoriser le regroupement d’entreprises et la création de coopératives, inciter le secteur privé à investir, etc.). Cet ouvrage jette un jour nouveau sur le transport par voies navigables et montre que ce mode de transport pourrait avoir un fort bel avenir si les bateliers devenaient de véritables entrepreneurs.

    Abstract: L’objectif de ce séminaire qui s’est déroulé les 2 et 3 octobre 1997 au Centre de Conférences de Josefow, près de Varsovie, était de définir le rôle et la place de la communication dans le domaine de la sécurité routière, d'étudier les diverses stratégies de communication et d'en identifier les limites. Ce séminaire a rassemblé 130 experts venant de vingt-trois pays différents, qu'il s'agisse de pays Membres ou de pays associés aux travaux de la CEMT en tant qu’observateurs. Il est ressorti des débats que la communication est l’un des éléments d’une politique globale de sécurité routière, élément qui vise à informer, sensibiliser, éduquer, convaincre et finalement modifier les attitudes et les comportements. Selon les thèmes retenus, les cultures nationales et les cibles à atteindre, les moyens mis en oeuvre et les canaux de communication peuvent être différents d’un pays à l’autre. En tout état de cause, il apparaît que la communication ne saurait être une fin en soi : elle ne peut qu’accompagner ou amplifier d’autres mesures. Aussi doit-elle s’inscrire dans la durée et veiller à ce que les objectifs fixés soient atteints. Il est également indispensable que les travaux de communication fassent l'objet d'évaluations rigoureuses.

    Abstract: The main goal of this Seminar was to understand the relationship between transport economics research and policymaking. In Europe, there is an extremely wide range of research approaches (a single government agency or several organisations, a national research programme or one-off contracts, etc.). What do these approaches have in common and what is the ideal research structure? With regard to researchers and research sponsors, monopolies should be avoided. Links between researchers and policymakers need to be as direct as possible. And it is also important that research findings be presented by communication specialists and disseminated very early on, before the final stages of research. Drawing on the presentation and analysis of national experiences, the Seminar spawned numerous recommendations that can help to define a national research policy, and suggested ways in which researchers and policymakers can organise the relationship between economic research and policymaking in the transport sector.

    Abstract: Comprendre les liens qui existent entre la recherche en économie des transports et la décision politique, tel était le principal objectif de ce Séminaire. En Europe, les expériences sont extrêmement variées en matière de recherche (organisme public national ou pluralité d’organismes, programme national de recherche ou contrats sporadiques, etc.). Quels sont leurs points communs et, surtout, quelle est la structure idéale ? Tout d'abord, il s'agit d'éviter les monopoles, tant de ceux qui effectuent les recherches que de ceux qui les commanditent. Il est également souhaitable que les liens entre chercheurs et hommes politiques soient aussi directs que possible. Enfin, il conviendrait que les résultats des recherches soient présentés par des spécialistes en communication et disséminés très tôt, sans attendre le stade final des recherches. Des expériences nationales, présentées et analysées lors de ce Séminaire, se dégagent un grand nombre de recommandations utiles à la définition des politiques nationales en matière de recherche. Ce Séminaire ouvre également aux chercheurs et aux hommes politiques de nouvelles pistes pour mieux organiser les liens entre recherche économique et politique dans le secteur des transports.

    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: Le problème des embouteillages fait souvent la une de l’actualité et y remédier constitue l’une des priorités des hommes politiques. On ne compte plus les études recensant le nombre d’heures perdues dans les « bouchons ». Les chiffres sont si alarmants qu’ils donnent une image apocalyptique des embouteillages. Toutefois, au-delà des problèmes vécus au quotidien par les automobilistes, les avis commencent à diverger quant à l’ampleur du phénomène et les moyens d’y faire face. Cette Table Ronde s’est attachée à donner une définition de la congestion routière et à en mesurer l'ampleur réelle. Elle a ensuite cerné son évolution et ses conséquences. Enfin, elle a évoqué les solutions susceptibles d’être apportées pour y remédier. Dressant un panorama de la situation à l’échelle européenne, elle permet de faire le point sur l’un des aspects les plus visibles du dysfonctionnement des systèmes de transports.

    Abstract: The Libyan Bedouin are Arab people of tribal and nomadic pastoralist backgrounds who have ties to the Libyan Desert. This desert comprises the western part of the Egypt, where it is known as the Western Desert, and the eastern part of Libya. This file on the Libyan Bedouin consists of 14 documents and includes ethnographies which provide rich accounts and varying perspectives of Libyan-Bedouin culture and society. These works include Evans-Pritchard's historical and sociological analysis of the Sansusi Order, Emry's study of power in Bedouin society, Behnke's study of Bedouin political ecology, and Abu-Lughod's studies of gender and poetry. Other studies discuss sociopolitical organization and customary law. Three studies examine more recent changes in Bedouin society as a result of sedentization, intrusion of the state, and economic development

    Keywords: Arabs--Canada ; Araber ; Araber
    Abstract: Arab Canadians are first-generation Christian or Muslim Arabic-speaking immigrants and their descendants who originally came from the Arab world and have roots in Arabic culture. Arab Canadians can be found throughout Canada, although the largest communities are found in major cities, such as Montreal and Toronto. There are five documents in the Arab Canadians file. The two major works cover the immigrant history, assimilation, and acculturation of Arab Canadians in Canada and Lebanese and Syrian Canadians in Nova Scotia. Three shorter articles examine the changes in Lebanese-Canadian households and families, the persistence of traditional customs in an Edmonton, Alberta Druse community, and a Lebanese community in Lac La Biche, Alberta

    Keywords: Djuka people ; Djuka ; Djuka
    Abstract: The Ndyuka live in the northern extension of the Amazonian rain forest in the Marowijne (Maroni) river basin which is shared by the Republic of Suriname and French Guiana. The heartland of Ndyuka territory is considered to be the lower part of the Tapanahoni River, a tributary of the Marowijne. The Ndyuka are one of six Maroon (or Bush Negro) groups in Suriname. Maroons are the descendants of rebel African slaves who succeeded in building independent communities in the Americas. This file contains 16 documents, which mostly cover topics on religion, law, and cultural change. The major works are Hurault's ethnography of the Boni from the 1940s and 1950s, van Velzen's history of Ndyuka religious movements and cults, Bilby's examination of culture change and identity in five Aluku communities, and Lenoir's work on Paramaccan religion. Other topics covered in this file include Ndyuka manners, possession cults during Suriname's civil war, leadership, witchcraft, law and sanctions, kinship and social organization, resistance and acculturation, classificatory kinship and authority, food cultivation and preparation, and a comparative demographic study of the Boni and Oyana Indians

    Keywords: Dogons (African people)
    Abstract: The Dogon are a group of people who live primarily in the districts of Bandiagara and Douentza in the western African nation of Mali. Some Dogon reside in Burkina Faso. This file consists of 30 documents, two are in the original French. Most focus geographically on the Mopti Region of Mali from ca. 1935 through 1970. General ethnographic information on the Dogon can be found in Paulme and Griaule for the 1930s, Paulu Marti up to the mid-1950s, and Bouju, ca. 1980s. Nearly half of the works focus on Dogon religion and art. Griaule wrote the classic works on Dogon religious thought and myth, which have been critiqued and defended. Griaule and Dieterlen also carried out a sociological analysis of Dogon religion. More specific religious studies are Dieterlen's studies of the Dogon concept of the soul and the symbolism of Dogon sacrifices. Van Beek has written on witchcraft, religious statues and religious ceremonies. Imperato writes on masked dances, as does Griaule in his general ethnography.

    Series Statement: ECMT Round Tables no.107
    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Les redevances d'usage des infrastructures ferroviaires
    Keywords: Transport
    Abstract: Now that railway infrastructure and train operations have been separated in Europe -- at least for accounting purposes -- user charges for infrastructure are progressively being introduced to cover the costs of running trains. However, because of the lack of experience in this field, it is difficult to set the amount and choose the most appropriate form for these charges. There are in fact major differences between countries, and the objectives are many and sometimes conflicting. Given this situation, the Round Table sought to highlight, through its introductory reports and discussions, some essential economic principles that can help to shed light on what a rational system of user charges for railway infrastructure might be and thereby make it possible to address a crucial aspect of railway reform in Europe. Special attention is paid to the German, French, British and Swedish experience.

    Abstract: The twelve interviews in this book cover all aspects of cinematography from pre-production planning to post-production, special effects, aerial photography, and second unit. Each interview gives a behind-the-scenes look at how some of the most popular shots in movies and television shows were lit and captured. Technically and philosophically oriented, Contemporary Cinematographers on Their Art explores the tools, trends, personalities, and professional achievements of contemporary cinematographers, highlighting the behind-the-scenes struggles of the business of making motion pictures. Each chapter delves into the personal challenges, political properties, inter-departmental interactions, and artistic achievements of the artists who bring scripts to life through their choice of cameras, lights, lenses, filters, gels, and other supporting equipment. Covering a variety of film and television genres--from soaps to half-hour sitcoms, to cable and network productions and low- and big-budget features--each interview explores the tools cinematographers use to capture their shots, from traditional equipment to innovative camera and lighting "toys," as well as the integration of mechanical and computer graphic effects.

    Abstract: This guide to the fundamentals of stage lighting includes a series of projects to allow experimentation, discussion and analysis. The necessary equipment is described in relation to its purpose, along with checklists and hints for practical use. The practical handling of light, with observation of the relationship of cause to effect, is central to the study of stage lighting. Rehearsal pressures usually restrict the time available for experimenting with lighting for a performance, but laboratory-style projects can be used to enable specific lighting problems to be solved. The core of this book is a series of 'discovery' projects using minimal resources, to explore the use of light in the theatre, with particular emphasis on the interaction of conflicting visual aims. The projects cover all the major scenarios likely to be encountered by lighting students and have been tried and tested by the author, who has taught lighting students all over the world for over 30 years. The book has been updated to include more on safety and the latest technology including: - fixed instruments using the new lower wattage high efficiency lamps in combination with dichronic reflectors - an increase in the availability, reliability, range and usage of 'moving light' technology based on remotely controlled instruments. New lighting projects have also been added. If you are studying the art and craft of stage lighting this book is an excellent working manual that will provide you with the technical knowledge and skill to cope with a range of lighting situations.

    Abstract: The main links with your PC and the outside world are the centronic port, used for connecting the printer, the RS232 port, used for the mouse, and the games port for a joystick. This book explores how these input/output (I/O) ports can be put to use through a range of other interfacing applications. This is especially useful for laptop and palmtop PCs which cannot be fitted with internal I/O cards. A novel approach is taken by this book, combining the hardware through which the ports can be explored, and the software programming needed to carry out a range of experiments. Circuits are provided for simple testing tools, and three experimental boards - which can also be purchased ready-made. A huge range of applications are considered, turning the PC into a flexible core of a variety of systems. External devices considered include opto-isolator drivers, power drivers, LED drivers, relay drivers, special driver ICs, and methods of driving opto-isolated zero-crossing solid state relays, stepper motors, sound generating devices and displays. Ways of gathering information from the outside world are given, as well as connection to digital devices, remote control and digital communication. As well as teaching in this field, Pei An has written numerous articles for magazines such as Electronics World and Electronics Today International. A hands-on guide to exploring your PC's input/output ports Covers the hardware and software aspects of interfacing An exciting project-based approach to an important subject area

    Abstract: Les chemins de fer européens traversent une période de profonde restructuration visant à accroître leur efficacité et leur compétitivité. Il s'agit avant tout de développer la liberté commerciale en séparant plus nettement le rôle de l'Etat et celui des entreprises ferroviaires, mais aussi en ouvrant progressivement l'accès aux infrastructures ferroviaires. Ce rapport examine les réformes menées dans plus de 30 pays de l'Atlantique à l'Oural. La restructuration y est étudiée sous l'angle de l'autonomie de gestion, de la séparation infrastructure/exploitation, et des droits d'accès aux infrastructures ferroviaires.

    Abstract: Ce rapport sur la situation actuelle du transport combiné en Europe dresse tout d'abord un panorama de la situation de ce type de transport pour trente pays d'Europe Membres de la CEMT. Les pays étudiés sont aussi bien ceux d'Europe centrale et orientale qui ont récemment adhéré à la Conférence que les Membres de longue date, pour lesquels les développements les plus récents sont mis à jour depuis l'étude réalisée en 1992 sur les améliorations des grandes liaisons internationales par ferroutage. Le champ d'observation couvert par cette étude, au-delà de la route et du rail, s'étend aux voies navigables et à la navigation maritime à courte distance. Ainsi pourront être mieux pressenties les faiblesses actuelles du transport combiné et les améliorations possibles. Sur la base de ce rapport, le Conseil des Ministres de la CEMT a adopté une série de recommandations qui s'adressent aux différents partenaires, tant publics que privés, nationaux ou internationaux, et qui portent sur certains éléments nécessaires pour garantir à la fois une amélioration effective et un développement durable du transport combiné. Ces recommandations figurent également dans cette publication.

    Abstract: Europe's railways are going through a period of radical restructuring in the drive to improve their efficiency and competitiveness. The emphasis is on fostering commercial freedom through a clearer separation of the roles of the State and of rail enterprises and through a progressive opening of access to rail infrastructure. This report examines reforms in over 30 countries from the Atlantic to the Urals, characterizing restructuring in terms of management independence, separation of infrastructure from operations and rights of access to rail infrastructure.

    Abstract: Do roads induce mobility? This might sound like a strange question, yet it only stands to reason that building new roads -- or other infrastructure -- may actually encourage people to use the new additional capacity to travel more. Induced mobility is a hotly debated issue, but the experts are no longer in any doubt that it is a very real phenomenon. However, measuring it is another matter, since we do not have sufficient data or experience in this area. This Round Table presents the data that is available to date on infrastructure-induced mobility. From the introductory reports and discussions, it is clear that much progress has been made in the last few years. As recently as ten years ago, many experts would have disputed the very existence of the induced mobility phenomenon. Today a consensus is emerging: Round Table 105 gives the full report.

    Abstract: This report on the current state of combined transport in Europe begins with an overview of combined transport in 30 European countries of the ECMT. It deals with both Central and Eastern European Countries that have recently become Members and the long-standing Member countries for which the most recent developments have been highlighted through the updating of a 1992 study on the improvements of main international piggyback links. The scope of the study, beyond road and rail, has been extended to include inland waterways and short-sea shipping, thus permitting a better evaluation of the current weaknesses of the sector and the possible improvements. On the basis of this report, the Council of Ministers of the ECMT has adopted a series of recommendations directed at all parties concerned in the public and private sectors, at both national and international level, regarding certain elements which are needed to achieve a significant improvement in combined transport and to ensure the sustainable development of the latter. These recommendations are also included in this publication.

    Abstract: After the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the previous economic system, the countries of central and eastern Europe went into a deep economic recession, resulting in a decline in Gross Domestic Product that was mirrored by a serious downturn in the transport sector. The transport sector, like the economy in general, changed from a supply-based system to one driven by demand. Decisions were no longer imposed by central planners, but by the market. Round Table 106 set out to assess the state of the transport sector in central and eastern European countries after a period of five to six years of reform. Are the policies currently in place adequate to meet restructuring needs? All of the countries concerned are planning to join the European Union and with that in mind tend to organise their transport sector along the lines of the Community's model of competition. But is this model consistent with the attitudes and realities of former socialist countries? These are some of the issues addressed by the Round Table 106.

    Abstract: Les routes créent-elles de la mobilité ? Une telle question est a priori surprenante. Pourtant, le fait que la présence de nouvelles routes -- ou infrastructures -- puisse inciter les usagers à les emprunter et, partant, à être plus mobiles, n'a rien de surprenant. Si la question continue de faire l'objet de débats animés, aucun expert ne doute plus de l'existence d'un phénomène de mobilité induite. En revanche, il s'avère difficile de mesurer ce phénomène, faute de données et d'expériences adéquates. Cette Table Ronde rassemble précisément les informations disponibles à ce jour sur la mobilité induite par de nouvelles infrastructures. A partir de rapports introductifs et des débats de la Table Ronde, on peut mesurer les progrès accomplis en quelques années. En effet, il y a dix ans à peine, le phénomène de la mobilité induite aurait été nié par beaucoup de spécialistes. Aujourd'hui, un consensus émerge, cette Table Ronde permet de le découvrir.

    Abstract: Après la chute du Mur de Berlin et la fin de l'ancien système économique, les pays d'Europe centrale et orientale ont traversé une crise économique profonde caractérisée par une contraction de leur Produit Intérieur Brut et une réduction corrélative très importante des transports. A l'instar de l'économie en général, les transports sont passés d'un système axé sur l'offre à un système où prime la demande. Les décisions ne sont plus imposées par une volonté planificatrice mais par le marché. Aussi, après cinq ou six ans de réformes, la Table Ronde 106 a cherché à faire le point sur la situation des transports dans les pays d'Europe centrale et orientale. Les politiques qui sont menées présentent-elles les caractéristiques adéquates pour faire face aux besoins de transformation ? Tous les pays étudiés envisagent d'adhérer à l'Union Européenne, aussi tendent-ils à adopter le modèle de concurrence européen en matière de transports. Mais ce modèle est-il adapté aux mentalités et réalités des anciens pays socialistes ? Ces questions figurent, parmi d'autres, au coeur des discussions de la Table Ronde 106.

    Abstract: L'évaluation environnementale stratégique sert depuis peu d'aide à la prise de décision intégrée sur les grands investissements en matière d'infrastructures de transport et, d'une manière plus générale, à la planification et à l'élaboration des politiques. Ce rapport fait le point de l'expérience acquise dans le monde dans cette nouvelle discipline. Son objectif est de contribuer à l'élaboration de procédures efficaces pour prendre en compte les évaluations environnementales appropriées dans toutes les décisions stratégiques relatives au secteur des transports.

    Abstract: Transport networks in Europe are insufficiently integrated and subject to widespread and increasing congestion, particularly on the roads. This publication reviews these issues and, more specifically, examines the problem of providing better access to Western Europe for peripheral regions and for Central and Eastern Europe, as well as the need to upgrade networks. Current responses to these problems are inadequate. Statistics and analytical tools are lacking, national approaches are highly differentiated, and analyses and concepts are rudimentary and overly sectoral. This publication analyses, on an homogeneous basis, the inland transport infrastructures, the investment forecasts and the main traffic flows in 30 European countries of the ECMT. This comparative presentation may be considered as a first step towards better knowledge of the European background.

    Keywords: Kanuri (African people) ; Kanuri ; Kanuri
    Abstract: The Kanuri constitute the dominant element of the population of Borno state in northeastern Nigeria, and are also found in large numbers in southeastern Niger. This file on the Kanuri consists of 11 documents. The literature covers Kanuri only in Nigeria, is almost entirely by the anthropologist Ronald Cohen and dates from ca. 1950s-1970. Included are Cohen's monograph on the Kanuri, as well as his articles on sociopolitical organization, attempts to change agricultural practices, nineteenth century political economy, marriage instability, kingship, processes of political incorporation, and status distinctions and social stratification. Rosman writes on the relationship between acculturation and social structure among urban Kanuri. Peshkin writes about the affect of Western-style education on social change in rural and urban Borno. The file is strong on Kanuri social and political organization up to the 1960s, while it is less so on religion, arts and recent social change between 1970 and the 1990s

    Keywords: Amhara (African people) ; At ; Amhara ; Amhara
    Abstract: The Amhara people of the Ethiopian central highlands are one of the two largest ethnic groups in Ethiopia. This file includes fifteen documents, all but one based on research conducted in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. Overall, a more traditional, and rural Amhara culture is portrayed, except for Levine who also discusses modern changes in Amhara culture. Messing's work systematically covers a broad range of culture, circa 1950s, and is the basic source to be consulted. Included in Messing's book is an extensive glossary covering such categories as animals, cultigens, herbs, spirits, and charms. The other works compliment Messing by examining more specific aspects of Amhara culture, such as settlement patterns, political organization, ethnomedicine, land tenure and secretic religious beliefs and practices. Examples and discussions of Amhara representative arts, oral stories and literature are found in Young, Messing, and Assefa, respectively. It is evident that Amhara culture varies geographically, although no one study covers this variability. The post-Haile Selassie period (1975 to present) is not covered in the file
