Genève face à sa mondialité. Anglo-saxons et portugais comme marqueurs de la segmentation spatiale genevoise

Abstract

Genève, petite ville mondiale connaissant une importante croissance économique et démographique, est ici envisagée par le biais d’une carte sur la répartition des résidents anglo-saxons et portugais du canton. Les logiques spatiales très différentes de ces deux populations témoignent des manifestations dans l’espace urbain de la mondialisation. Elles mettent Genève face à un risque de segmentation socio-spatiale, aucunement inéluctable mais autrement plus dangereux pour son développement que la densification, bouc-émissaire des difficultés d’aménagement que rencontre l’agglomération.

Transparent ceramics

Many ceramic materials, both glassy and crystalline, have found use as optically transparent materials in various forms from bulk solid-state components to high surface area forms such as thin films, coatings, and fibers. Such devices have found widespread use for various applications in the electro-optical field including: optical fibers for guided lightwave transmission, optical switches, laser amplifiers and lenses, hosts for solid-state lasers and optical window materials for gas lasers, and infrared (IR) heat seeking devices for missile guidance systems and IR night vision.
