This chapter locates the figure of Félix Éboué in the cultural politics of commemoration in Guyane. It offers a cultural history of the production of memorials to Éboué in Guyane (his birthplace) and beyond, assessing the role of these markers of national power in the local landscape. The chapter focuses first on the monument located in central Cayenne, produced at the instigation of a local committee and inaugurated in 1957, towards the end of the Fourth Republic. It then addresses the revival of 'memory' of Éboué and the renewal of his presence in Guyane which occurred during the 2000s. Instigated in part by Christiane Taubira, this culminated in the renaming of the only international airport in the Département — the key point of arrival and departure between Paris and Cayenne. The chapter concludes by asking how the vision of Guyane asserted in the act of ‘remembering’ Éboué has changed or been adapted in the twenty-first century.

Abstract We investigate factors which may drive the number of agents who compete for a specific piece of farmland in the French region of Brittany by fitting count models to data originating from a local committee, the CDOA, which is responsible for guidance in delivering the necessary “authorisations to farm”. Results are analysed in the light of a conceptual framework which provides an explanation why the subset of farmers who actually apply for an authorisation to farm may differ from the whole set of potential applicants. Several results reflect the impact of an informal mediation by local farmer unions, which aims to lower potential conflicts and hence competition.

Working Out

I. Preliminary Observations. This Cave, or rather series of enlarged fissures in the Devonian Limestone, was discovered in January 1858 whilst quarrying the rock on the slope of the hill which rises above the small fishing-town of Brixham, near Torquay, in Devonshire. The owner of the quarry had the excavation carried sufficiently far to show that the cave had several branches, and contained bones both on the surface of the stalagmite and in the red loam beneath it. Mr. Pengelly visited the cave soon after its discovery, and, believing it likely to prove of much interest, opened negotiations with the proprietor, with a view to secure the right of exploration. There were, however, obstacles which then prevented this object being carried into execution. Shortly afterwards the late Dr. Falconer, while on a visit to Torquay, was informed of the discovery, and, after a careful inspection of the cave, he was so impressed with the opportunity here afforded of working out completely a new and untouched bone-cavern, that on his return to London he addressed the following letter to the Geological Society. This letter is given at length, as showing the state of the cave question at that period, and the objects to be attained by the exploration of the Brixham Cave.
