Dry zones (arid, semi-arid, sub-humid) are home to complex agrarian systems, where societies compete or synergize land uses for crops, livestock and forestry. The DYNAGRO symposium will explore the resilience of these systems in the face of climatic, demographic, land, security and geopolitical pressures, the tensions and compromises between stakeholders, and the adaptations, transitions and transformations at work in these territories. International in scope, the conference will focus on the Sahel, but will also be open to all the world's drylands, with a session dedicated to wetlands.

This study day aims to analyze the transformations of the social worlds of fishing, whether artisanal or industrial, and whether practiced in maritime, lacustrine or other aquatic spaces. From a comparative perspective, our aim is to bring together work from ethnographic research both "on board" and carried out in the land-based spaces of fish trade and processing, and in the places in which they take place. We will build a collective reflection aimed at understanding how fishing societies negotiate their existence in contexts marked by ecological uncertainty, regulatory pressure, technological mutations and market recompositions.

This is one of the questions that will drive the 6th edition of the colloquium for doctoral students and young doctors, entitled "Actualité et réactions du droit", to be held on November 17, 2026 at the Faculté de Droit et de Sciences politiques in Nantes. The aim is to discuss and study the various reactions of the law to events of varying degrees of importance. While the law may give the impression of feeding on current events, it also appears that certain subjects and certain types of events do not lead to any evolution, or even lead the legislator to go back on acquired legal norms.

The international system is based on a set of relationships between states, international organizations and non-state actors, framed by international law and multilateralism to preserve peace and organize global governance. However, since the end of the Cold War, this order has undergone a profound crisis, marked by geopolitical conflicts, power rivalries, the fragmentation of international institutions and the emergence of new forms of hybrid and informational conflict. At the same time, the global South, notably through the BRICS+, is asserting its growing strategic autonomy and challenging Western domination and the established international order. Against this backdrop, the Sahel is a telling example of the limits of multilateralism in the face of persistent security, political and economic crises. These mutations underline the need to rethink the international system and its governance mechanisms to meet contemporary challenges. In line with the above, the Revue de L'EMP-ABB is collecting articles for an issue on the international system.
