This article examines from several angles the evolution of inequality since the end of the Ancien Regime in a rural Andalusian village. Our research is mainly based on fiscal sources, aided by data from private accounting registries, land registry documents, texts from agrarian engineers, etc. The transformation of rural spaces and of local agricultural production is discussed first. Second, the evolution of property distribution, agricultural surplus and income are addressed. Last of all, this study explains the inequality effects derived from both socio-institutional transformations begun during the crisis of the Ancien Regime and specialization in wine or olive oil production –combined with intensification in other types of production processes– that took place in Aguilar and the surrounding area much earlier than in the rest of Cordoba Province.

La pollution des eaux n'est pas un phénomène récent : jusqu'au début du xxe siècle, et même après, l'usage d'eaux malsaines était quasi général, et la rareté de l'eau — dans les campagnes comme dans les villes — avait des conséquences sociales et médicales non négligeables. Certes cette histoire de l'eau est difficile à écrire, et elle tente peu les historiens, précisément parce qu'elle touche à cet « invisible quotidien » qui laisse peu de traces. Pourtant elle engage toute l'histoire des conditions matérielles de vie, l'histoire démographique et même l'histoire des mentalités : la révolution de l'eau a été trop diffuse pour qu'on en puisse aisément saisir toute l'étendue . Ne peut-on, cependant, pour une région limitée, tenter de dégager à grands traits les conditions de cet « ancien régime » de l'eau ?

« L'Anjou, écrivait un religieux à la fin du xvne siècle est une des plus petites provinces de la France, et il est très certain qu'un homme qui chemine bien peut aller en un jour d' Angers aux extrémités de la province, excepté vers Craon et La Roe. » A François Lebrun, auteur de l'admirable synthèse que viennent de publier les Éditions Mouton, il aura fallu une bonne dizaine d'années pour parcourir en tous sens les 9 362 km2, les 16 élections et les 541 paroisses de l' Anjou d' Ancien Régime, en connaître les terroirs, les contrastes', les misères et les espoirs. Le parti adopté est le même que ceux précédemment choisis par P. Goubert et E. Le Roy Ladurie pour le Beauvaisis et le Languedoc, plus récemment par R. Fossier pour la Picardie.

Olive pomace is a semisolid by-product of olive oil production and represents a valuable source of functional phytocompounds. The valorization of agro-food chain by-products represents a key factor in reducing production costs, providing benefits related to their reuse. On this ground, we herein investigate extraction methods with supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) of functional phytocompounds from olive pomace samples subjected to two different drying methods, i.e., freeze drying and hot-air drying. Olive pomace was produced using the two most common industrial olive oil production processes, one based on the two-phase (2P) decanter and one based on the three-phase (3P) decanter. Our results show that freeze drying more efficiently preserves phytocompounds such as α-tocopherol, carotenoids, chlorophylls, and polyphenols, whereas hot-air drying does not compromise the β-sitosterol content and the extraction of squalene is not dependent on the drying method used. Moreover, higher amounts of α-tocopherol and polyphenols were extracted from 2P olive pomace, while β-sitosterol, chlorophylls, and carotenoids were more concentrated in 3P olive pomace. Finally, tocopherol and pigment/polyphenol fractions exerted antioxidant activity in vitro and in accelerated oxidative conditions. These results highlight the potential of olive pomace to be upcycled by extracting from it, with green methods, functional phytocompounds for reuse in food and pharmaceutical industries.

The annual olive oil production in Cyprus is in the range of 2700–3100 t y−1, resulting in the generation of significant amount of waste. The cocomposting of the olive oil solid residue (OOSR) and the treated wastewaters (with Fenton) from the olive oil production process with the application of reed beds has been studied as an integrated method for the treatment of wastewater containing high organic and toxic pollutants under warm climate conditions. The experimental results indicated that the olive mill wastewater (OMW) is detoxified at the end of the Fenton process. Specifically, COD is reduced up to 65% (minimum 54.32%) by the application of Fenton and another 10–28% by the application of red beds as a third stage. The final cocomposted material of OOSR with the treated olive mile wastewater (TOMW) presents optimum characteristics and is suitable for agricultural purpose.
