Ma dernière chronique pour @liberation.fr revient sur la genèse de l'Histoire Générale de l'Afrique publiée en onze volumes par l'UNESCO, entreprise scientifique et éditoriale initiée dans les années 1960 ("la plus impressionnante de ce siècle" dixit l'un des premiers contributeurs).

The joys of British higher education:

Further to the Faculty presentation held this afternoon, I am writing to confirm that your role has been identified as being affected by the proposed changes and is therefore ‘at risk’ of redundancy. As outlined in the Faculty presentation, the proposed reduction in the number of roles in certain areas is being considered in response to the need for change within the Faculty, and no final decisions have been made.
