open access: yesOrbis Litterarum, Volume 78, Issue 4, Page 315-326, August 2023., 2023
Résumé Dans La longue marche, essai sur la Chine (Gallimard, 1957), malgré son admiration pour le pays maoïste, Beauvoir aborde un phénomène social controversé qui est la « désexualisation » de la femme chinoise. La réception beauvoirienne, en cette matière, est assez particulière, car elle témoigne d’une rupture entre l’horizon d’attente et le présent.

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 4, Page 1246-1256, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Using the lens of the baobab tree, this paper explores the ecological outcomes of different tenurial arrangements and implications for resource sustainability. With the emergence of markets for baobab products, a central concern is to confirm whether use patterns differ across different tenure regimes and, if so, their ecological outcomes. The
