Abstract

La relation millénaire entre ville et campagne, qui associait deux termes nettement distincts par leur forme autant que par leur fonction, a tendu à se défaire au XXe siècle, dans les pays riches, pour laisser place à un mixte de ces deux termes : la " ville-campagne ". Cet habitat d'un genre nouveau pose de gros problèmes, tant au plan social qu'à celui des paysages et de l'environnement. Ceux-ci culminent aujourd'hui en un paradoxe insoutenable : la quête de " nature " (dans les représentations) entraîne la destruction de la nature (en termes de biosphère). Ce livre collectif s'attache à retracer l'histoire des motivations qui ont conduit à ce paradoxe, du mythe arcadien au libéralisme post-fordiste, dans trois " bassins sémantiques " : l'Europe occidentale, l'Asie orientale et l'Amérique du Nord, en éclairant leurs originalités mais aussi leurs multiples confluences.

Abstract

Over the past quarter of a century, the wave of construction of “new villages” has profoundly changed the landscapes of the Ile-de-France region. After two decades of production of large collective housing estates, the single-family home has experienced strong development in response to the desire of households to own larger and more comfortable housing. Who were the customers of these new suburban spaces? What have been the effects of this supply of housing on the fringes of the city on the social development of the centre of the agglomeration? While executives and middle classes have settled in the best-served sectors, the Ile-de-France countryside has also welcomed more modest households leaving the neighbourhoods of large housing estates that are increasingly devalued. Through the constitution of these suburban suburban rings, it is therefore the evolution of a metropolis of more than 10 million inhabitants that we questioned. Maps and graphics reproduced in a CD-ROM highlight the increase in social polarization as well as mobility and help to shed light on the debates on the emerging city.
