treaties: A common market for industrial and agricultural products (including fish) as well as for services, a free labor market and free flow of direct and portfolio investments in the form of right to cross-border establishment, and free movement of capital. The free movement of goods, services, persons,21 and capital is often referred to as the “four freedoms” in European legal literature.22 The European common market was not established overnight. Already, the treaty itself laid down long transitional

"African Socialism" with a free-market oriented policy. Senegal and Gambia proclaim a regional alliance, the Senegambian Confederation. 1984. Discontent in the rural Casamance region of Senegal leads to the beginning of an internal rebellion by the Movement of Democratic Forces of the Casamance (MFDC). 1989. The Senegambian Confederation is disbanded due to Gambian fears of absorption into Senegal. 1994. The West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA) is established to replace the CEAO. The

eleven inherent rules of corporate behaviour by Jerry Mander, we can find The Profit Imperative: “Profit is the ultimate driver of all corporate decisions. It takes precedence over community well-being, worker health, public health, peace, environmental preservation or national security. The profit imperative and the growth imperative are the most fundamental corporate drives; together they represent the corporation's instinct to live.” In addition, a paper wrote by Prakhar Vaish argue

création de valeur pour les communautés où elle opère, pour ses partenaires commerciaux et, ses consommateurs. We call this “ Creating Shared Value ”. C’est " Création de valeur partagée ». We are investing for the future to ensure the financial and environmental sustainability of our actions and operations: in capacity, in technologies, in capabilities, in people, in brands, in R&D. Nous investissons pour l'avenir pour assurer la durabilité financière et environnementale de nos actions et d'opérations:

Tariffs and Trade (GATT), which has given globalization greater impetus in the last decade, is expected to increase global income by an estimated US$212-US$510 billion (from trade and efficiency gains and higher rates of return on capital) by 2001. Movements of people have also increased. Tourism more than doubled between 1980 and 1996, from 260 million to 590 million travellers a year. Despite tight restrictions, international migration continues to grow, and workers’ remittances amounted to US$58

design the structure of a solar panel able to follow the sun course. The progress of this project is made by this way: -Study of the sun course -Identification of environmental constraints -Choice of a structure able to meet the requirements of placement -Choice of the equipment adapted to the efforts and able to permit the movement -Creation of a command driving the structure The conclusions of this project will help lead to the realization of a field of solar panels on the ESIEE’s roof.

for multinational enterprises. Indeed, the main objective of multinational companies is to work profitably. Thanks to the boundaries fall, they are able to fit into new countries where they will get multiple advantages (economical, social, environmental…). So, if countries want to attract those companies in order to raise their benefits, they should not increase standards of life for fear of pushing away powerful multinational enterprises. Moreover, countries getting financial assistance from

in which the two pathways are linked. Organisms transform energy Energy = Capacity to do work Kinetic energy = Energy in the process of doing work (energy of motion). For example: Heat (thermal energy) is kinetic energy expressed in random movement of molecules. Light energy from the sun is kinetic energy which powers photosynthesis. Potential energy = Energy that matter possesses because of its location or arrangement (energy of position). For example: In the earth’s gravitational field

Migrations et défis écologiques “An oft-cited prediction by Myers suggests that climate change and other environmental factors could lead to 200 million people being displaced by mid-century; other estimates suggest that as many as 1 billion people could be displaced. Such estimates are not based on statistical or empirical evidence, and it is arguable whether any population movements presently being observed are attributable to climatic change .” Cette citation du géographe canadien Robert
