Course Description
This course covers the different aspects of the mobility of the land-sea boundary through student exercises and through document analysis. First, the course looks at the definition of the coast according to the relevant disciplines and problems of development. The variations of the global sea level and the relative sea level are therefore be explained and then worked on in exercises aimed at understanding the different time and space scales. This working method is then applied to analyze the coastal dynamics and the types of coastlines (processes, different forms, reefs). After, the challenges of coastal mobility are covered by analyzing development policies and techniques (MIACA, MIALR, coastal law, PPRL, defense works, strategies in other countries). Finally, the course looks at aspects that challenge the health of coastlines such as tourism and how that affects different coastline environments such as mangroves, coral reefs, etc.

Course Description
Between April and July 1994, almost one million people were killed in Rwanda in the course of the last genocide of the twentieth century. The Tutsi community became the target of a mass killing campaign orchestrated at the higher level of the State and widely executed by the civilian population. The violence reached the intimacy of social and affective bounds on an unprecedented scale. Exploring the main particularity of the Tutsi genocide, this course aims to put this major event into its long-term historical context. Based on the study of academic literature as well on written and oral archives, the course is conceived to provide key elements to understand the genocidal mechanisms implemented during the spring 1994 in Rwanda.

Course Description
The focus of this course is the uses of the French language, both in France and around the world. Also covered is the linguistic variation within French. The theoretical framework used is sociolinguistics (variational linguistics, linguistic attitudes, linguistic policies, etc.) and several concrete examples are used to illustrate the theory in practice. More specifically, the phenomena relevant to the use of the language in France is distinguished where French is the principal language but there is significant variation according to the speakers and the context where French is mixed with other regional languages and languages of immigrants. Also covered are instances where French is used in a formally multilingual setting, such as Belgium and Switzerland, and informally multilingual settings such as the Creole-speaking regions where French is merged with several indigenous languages, as in Reunion Island or Louisiana.
