Since the late 2000s, urban identity has become a fashionable concept for many humanities. This paper aims to produce a conceptual framework for capturing the formation of urban identities through the articulation between projected images and perceived images and their respective components. From an extensive and a cross-disciplinary approach, we h...
Depuis la fin des années 2000, l'identité urbaine est devenue une notion à la mode pour beaucoup de disciplines des sciences humaines. Ce travail propose un cadre conceptuel permettant de comprendre la formation des identités urbaines par l'articulation entre les images projetées et les images perçues. La mobilisation d'études quantitatives, pour d...

A study of the determinants of the location of households subject to the solidarity tax on wealth
The paper focuses on the geographical location of wealthy households, which represent a target for policies concerning the attractiveness of residential areas. The study is conducted on the basis of data o...
This paper explores the impact of city-port relations on the spatial structure of housing prices, an issue common to many European cities. We focus on measuring and understanding the mechanisms induced by the different historical phases of these relationships: port activities, port wastelands, and led-gentrification (urban renewal). The selected ca...
Culture, heritage and knowledge: dynamic factors of development
Culture, heritage and knowledge are analyzed as factors of social and economic development. The study of their relations in economics and regional science is used to explain the local strategies of metropolis, city or rural area and how public authorities deal with such factors. Herita...

Il a été conçu en l'honneur de Claude Courlet, l'un des précurseurs des...
The new worlds of migrations and territories
This article is a general introduction to the special issue of the ASRDLF symposium held in Martinique in 2011.

Avec la réforme de décentralisation de 1981, le développement de la politique de l'aménagement du territoire a connnu en France une forte césure. Avant 1981 il existait une culture de l'aménagement appelée par l'auteur de cet article la culture d'un Etat jacobin. Elle était marquée par l'intervention omniprésente de l'administration centrale. En 19...

The « Belle Province » of the Regional Science in Québec
This special issue aims to show some lights on myths and realities of the France – Quebec relations in terms of Regional Science. Above all language complicities, we are questionning the existence of a specific and original Quebec Regional Science grounded with environment, history, geography...
This paper aims at presenting the development of niche competitiveness within mid-sized French cities. The analysis is based on a data set concerning the growth of high-skilled jobs that reflect metropolitan functions, and which are mainly agglomerated at the top of the urban hierarchy. They are used to approximate the types of coalescence of these...
This paper proposes a survey of recent literature on the analysis of metropolitanization, with a main focus on the economic approach of the phenomenon. The basic statements of metropolitanization, appeared at the beginning of 90’s, are clarified: metropolitanization was conceived as the spatial translation of globalization, which has induced change...
Cahiers du GREThA N° 2011-13
Cet article part d’une interrogation sur la répartition spatiale des services aux entreprises (SAE) dans les villes moyennes françaises : leur dotation servicielle suit-elle une logique de Places Centrales ou de Métropolisation ? Dans quelle mesure les villes moyennes parviennent-elles à « capter » des services théoriquement dévolus aux métropoles...

A new Regional Science ?
Regional science is in constant change, always in search of identity and specificity like an autonomous and legitimate scientific field. Regional Science was on the last twenty years, deeply renewed under the influence of new theories of which the NEG, of different issues and by the arrival of young generations. Spatial eco...
This paper examines the development of “creative” services (research, information, art etc.), located in medium-sized areas. Insofar as urban dynamics lead to extend the advanced services outside metropolises, particular attention is given to issues concerning the definition of “medium-sized cities”, and their significance regarding urban systems;...
In recent years, increased attention has been paid to intermediate zones, especially medium-sized and small-sized areas, which have witnessed new sociospatial dynamics. We discuss a theoretical approach for updating the analysis of the structuring and the functioning of these areas which are searching for an identity. We assume, in particular, that...
Urban production systems : from clusters to clusties
In this paper, we propose the keyword of « clusty » in order to go over two main paradigms in Regional Science. The first one is driven by Urban Economics and particularly the economics of large metropolises, and the second by the geography of innovation and industrial economics. Both are useful...

With the paddle of a new period of programming, the European regional policy must face the challenge of widening in the East like with that of the insertion of Europe in universalization. In this European space where exists a demographic, economic and policy concentration, in an omnipotent center, the regions become capital parts of the reorganizat...
Politique régionale européenne : nouveaux fondements, nouvelles frontières ?

Dans cet espace européen où existe une concentration démographi...
Qu'ont à dire les économistes sur les problèmes urbains et le devenir des villes ? Comment analyser les coûts de la ville dense ou de la ville étalée ? Quelles sont les externalités à prendre en compte dans les politiques d'aménagement ? Quelle est leur contribution aux débats sur la cohésion sociale et le renouvellement urbain ?... Telles sont cer...
Urban crisis is regularly on the topic, in particular in social spheres but also in fields of planning and town planning. A lot of questions concern the dissolution, the disappearance of urbanity, the towns’ loss of meaning and identity and conglomerations where the kinds of development tend to produce spaces which are both diffuse and confused.
Th...
The processes of metropolitanization must explain if and how they concern some specific areas, how and if they primarily concern networks, hubs and nodes, pushing into the background the immediate territories of the metropolis. We assume that small-sized areas, in particular rural zones, could constitute a level of implementation of metropolitan pr...
The process of metropolitanization does not conform to the predominant view of urban growth. It is closely related to selective concentrations of activities and jobs and to social polarization and spatial fragmentation. It is primarily associated with very large cities. In this paper, we suggest that the process may exist according to various terri...
This article assesses the output of French-speaking regional scientists based on published works in Revue d’Economie Régionale et Urbaine (1978-1999). We explore quantitative and qualitative aspects of regional science and make comparisons with Anglo-Saxon research. We focus on the topics, style and concepts studied and used over time. Our analysis...

Metropolitanization, center and centrality
The metropolitanization process leads to an increasing search for metropolitan centrality and yet it is often tied to a crisis of centers. This contradiction leads to an increasing disjunction between center and centrality whose patterns are analyzed as well in terms of evolving urban forms as of changing...
