Korea has long been described as a “hermit kingdom” by Western societies. This perception was maintained until the turn of the 20th century. A number of political transformations challenged Korea's policy of isolation. This isolation helped to awaken a certain curiosity about Korea among Europeans. Through missionaries, scientific expeditions, trade missions, geographical missions and literature, France contributed greatly to the Western world's knowledge of Korea, and by extension, to the production of representations and a discourse on Korean society and culture. When formal diplomatic relations were established between France and Korea in 1876, the France of the Third Republic was also a France that was expanding into new colonial spaces. This article reflects on the margins of France, and in particular on colonial space as a space for the production of an idea of the Orient. As such, this article takes a look at French Indochina and its position - as a colonial space, a marginal space of France - but also as a foreground space and as such a space of translation and production of a specific imaginary of the Orient. In short, this article aims to highlight the contribution of French Indochina to the constitution of the cultural imaginary of Korea for France and the French-speaking world.

The history of labour relations clearly illustrates how the legislative framing of worker-management issues was justified owing to the incapacity of the civil law to adapt to new industrialized realities, be they individual or collective. It was the Industrial Revolution later followed by two great world wars that ushered in an era of evolving workplace needs and the legislative machinery required to govern these changes. These events favoured worker unity, which led the legislator to pass laws recognizing their collective rights. At the same time, the legislator acted in the role of protecting public interest also by passing legislation aimed at safeguarding individual worker rights for those not benefitting from collective agreements.

Despite the fairly supportive legislation pertaining to Tunisian women, their involvement in entrepreneurship remains low. Thus, the participation of women does not exceed 28.2% of the active population, compared to 65.8% for men. Similarly, while unemployment for women is around 24%, it is 15% for men. The unemployment rises to 40.7% for women with higher education, compared to 17.6% for men. As a result, there is gender disparity in entrepreneurship. Despite the improvement in their level of education and qualification, Tunisian women encounter enormous difficulties in setting up and developing their own business project. The difficulties encountered in entrepreneurship for women are studied through a survey conducted with future promoters and those already established in the region of Mahdia (Tunisian Sahel). Analyzed are the factors contributing to gender disparity, the low proportion of women entrepreneurs and the fields or types of projects they undertake. Similarly, under study is the impact of the rural and urban territory on the share of female projects and especially on the types of projects developed in the region of Mahdia.
