This article provides a detailed account of the shifting places of the black Locust tree (Robinia pseudoacacia) in France, from its introduction as a North American exotic in the early seventeenth century to the present. Three phases or moments are identified, articulating material and discursive dimensions of the trajectory of the tree — and of th...

Given the challenge of prejudging whether contracting a MAEt - a territorial agri-environmental policy in France - constitutes an environmental effort on the part of the farmers, this study addresses questions of fairness raised by MAEt. Although the policy is focused on improving environment quality, there are consequences in terms of equity of ac...

This paper investigates the complexity and diversity of landscape contexts and associated tree canopy dynamics. We use the example of wooded areas dominated by the Robinia pseudoacia in the Sauternes region of France. Introduced in France in the 17th century, the expansion of the species, although diffuse and unobtrusive, has nonetheless been rapid...

Our aim is to contribute to a debate, initially framed in the french context, on how dominant principles of « territorialization » may be undergoing an ecological turn. Drawing on a critical review of the literature, we propose first an analytical framework built around three major nodes of the debate : materialities, narratives, organizations. We...

Dans cette contribution nous caractérisons et analysons l’évolution récente des politiques foncières sur le littoral aquitain, avec un focus particulier sur le bassin d'Arcachon. Nous confrontons d'abord les évolutions des zonages entre 2001 et 2010 avec celles des usages du sol. Ouverture à l'urbanisation et reclassement "naturel" sont les deux ph...

EspacesTemps.net https://www.espacestemps.net/articles/glacis-memoriels-en-medoc/ On the basis of two animated maps, the paper aims to contribute to the thinking of the mapmaking practices that are based on the overlay of various stratas. The examples suggest that the added value of such multilayered cartographies (that we choose to call glacis)...

The bay of Arcachon is a very attractive touristic destination since it was developed during the 19th century. In the context characterized by 191% increase of thepopulation during summer, ecotourism strategies developed by stakeholders of this territory are aiming both preservation of the natural and cultural patrimony and conservation of touristi...

This article proposes an analysis of actual land use planning policies on coastal Aquitaine, with a focus on the area of Bassin dArcachon. We first match zoning changes between 2001 and 2010 with land use changes. New development zones and a rise inprotection of "natural" uses are the main observed tendencies. Second, we link theses evolutions to l...

L'intérêt pour cette synthèse s'est développé en réponse au constat partagé avec les acteurs de la société d'un besoin de bilan des connaissances.

Cet ouvrage de synthèse des connaissances s'inscrivant dans une démarche glob...

Le bassin d'Arcachon est une destination touristique dont l'attractivité n'a pas été démentie depuis son développement au cours du XIXe siècle. Dans un contexte caractérisé par une augmentation de population de 191 % en période estivale, les stratégies écotouristiques développées par les acteurs de ce territoire ont vocation à préserver le patrimoi...

RÉSUMÉ: Sur la base d’une comparaison entre deux exercices menés par les auteurs, cet article propose une exploration de l’espace des compromis entre expertise et créativité que suscite la construction de scénarios prospectifs. Les cas se rattachent au devenir de deux objets géographiques situés dans le sud-ouest de la France mais aux caractéristiq...

Through the comparison of two exercises led by the authors, this paper offers an exploration of the tradeoffs between expertise and creativity that are inherent to the creation of forward-looking scenarios. Both geographical objects whose futures are considered in our cases are located in southwestern France. These two objects present contrasted fe...

Cet article propose une approche interdisciplinaire visant à étudier la dynamique d’engrillagement en Sologne sous ses aspects humains et écologiques. Des travaux ont été menés, relatés par ailleurs dans des manuscrits soumis à des revues d’écologie, afin de décrire le comportement spatial des cerfs de Sologne, en présence de grillages. Un travail...

Taking the critical review of « Le ciel ne va pas nous tomber sur la tête » (‘the sky is not going to fall over our head’, a book edited by Brunel & Pitte in 2010) as a starting point, this paper aims to explain the reasons for the lack of dialogue between french geography and ecology, discussing in particular the stakes raised by possibilism and m...

With regards to the development of a broadly understood political ecology, francophone and anglo-american intellectual traditions have had uneven, asymmetrical and under-documented influences. Exploring these influences, this chapter challenges the temptation of reducing french political ecology to a mere intellectual script for France’s green move...

The 'comparative tableau of mountains & rivers' is a recently 'rediscovered' cartographic layout, aiming to illustrate the size distributions of the world's highest mountains and longest rivers. Its 'river' component is basically a barplot of the rivers' unbent shapes, retaining a 'thick' cartographic description of their immediate hinterland. This...

Les bases de données d’occupation et d’usage du sol, produites par les services publics, sont communément utilisées pour étudier des thématiques aussi différentes que la déprise agricole, l’étalement urbain ou les trames écologiques. Bien que les fournisseurs avertissent sur les limites de leur produit, les utilisateurs se posent peu de questions s...

Resolutions of landcover databases and assessment of change. Articulations of space, time and theme Landuse/landcover databases, produced by the authorities, are commonly used to study topics as diverse as the abandonment of agricultural land, urban sprawl or the design of green infrastructure programmes.

Y a-t-il plus politique que l’écologie ? La gestion des territoires et celle des ressources naturelles font aujourd’hui l’objet de nombreux débats. Les questions environnementales donnent lieu désormais à des réseaux d’influences entre des institutions de nature et d’échelles différentes. Pour analyser les luttes de pouvoir et les ajustements qui e...

In Mali, amidst moves toward political decentralization and the transfer of authority to manage natural resources, woodcutting has become an important tool for the assertion of territorial claims by villagers. The decentralization process has itself led to a profound political shake-up between the central state seeking to maintain land ownership an...

Rural areas are becoming increasingly differentiated and gradually losing their agricultural specificity. They now need to support the coexistence of two logical approaches to occupation of their space: one based on the supply of agricultural and forestry products, the other on the various demands from local residents and seasonal tourists. Under t...

The Eurostat `nomenclature of territorial units for statistics' (or NUTS), the three-level hierarchy designed for the regional statistics of EU-27, EFTA, and candidate countries, has both analytical and political purposes: its implementation, favouring existing institutional divisions, resulted in important differences between countries, owing as m...

The main aim of the thesis is to provide an analysis of the local impacts of a community forestry management scheme implemented in Mali: the rural wood markets. Following an intellectual reframing of the system, which was designed to ensure the woodfuel supply of the largest cities of the country, in the wake of a reform of the forest sector and th...

Le point de départ des réflexions menées au cours de cette thèse est l’analyse des impacts locaux occasionnés au Mali par la mise en œuvre d’un système de gestion forestière communautaire : les marchés ruraux de bois. Après un recadrage des racines intellectuelles de ce dispositif pensé pour assurer l’approvisionnement des grandes villes du pays e...

In 1995, the Malian government embarked on a reform to decentralise its natural resource management policies.
