Les « insécurités urbaines », les formes prises à l’époque contemporaine par les conflits militaires et leurs avatars dans les centres urbains, constituent des thématiques de recherche fortement investies par les sciences sociales depuis quelques années. L’abondance des productions scientifiques ne conduit pas toujours à questionner, à comparer les regards déployés et les méthodes mises en oeuvre pour analyser les facteurs et les situations qui mettent en crise les sociétés urbaines, ou les solutions et les dispositifs qui prétendent y remédier. Cet ouvrage, issu d’un ensemble de rencontres pluridisciplinaires, s’efforce de prendre du recul par rapport aux façons de voir et aux façons de faire de différentes disciplines des sciences sociales qui investissent ce champ d’étude des « insécurités » et des « crises ». Il entend aider à confronter les analyses, les méthodes et les terrains d’enquêtes de l’histoire, de la géographie, de la sociologie, du droit, des sciences politiques et – même – du cinéma documentaire – pour appréhender les moments où les villes entrent « en ébullition » du fait des tensions qui perturbent leur vie sociale ou de leur désordre matériel devenu « explosif ». En abordant successivement « l’effervescence insécuritaire », « la ville déchirée » des temps de guerres – y compris coloniales et civiles – et, enfin, les moyens servant à « apaiser et à discipliner » les villes, ce livre veut réfléchir à des objets, à des pratiques concrètes et à des discours, à des formes d’organisations sociales et politiques, à des idéologies et à des formes de justification/légitimation qui se déploient dans le temps et dans l’espace. À travers ces contributions, on reconnaîtra l’usage et les réflexions inspirées par les travaux de Michel Foucault, ici moins « maître à penser » que pourvoyeur d’une féconde « boîte à outils ». Il convient de les lire de manière ouverte, comme autant de propositions pour aller plus loin dans le dialogue et la réflexion, cela dans…

Streets are an integral part of every city on Earth. They channel the people, vehicles, and materials that help make urban life what it is. They are conduits for the oft-taken-for-granted infrastructures that carry fresh water, energy, and information, and that remove excess stormwater and waste. The very air that we breathe—fresh or foul—flows through our street canyons. That streets are the arteries of the city is, indeed, an apt metaphor. But city streets also function as a front yard, linear ecosystem, market, performance stage, and civic forum, among other duties. In their various forms, streets are places of interaction and exchange, from the everyday to the extraordinary. As the editors affirm, the more we scrutinize, share, and activate sustainable approaches to streets, the greater the likelihood that our streets will help sustain life in cities and, by extension, the planet. While diverse in subject, the papers in this volume are unified in seeing the city street as the complex, impactful, and pliable urban phenomenon that it is. Topics range from greenstreets to transit networks to pedestrian safety and walkability. Anyone seeking interdisciplinary perspectives on what makes for good city streets and street networks should find this book of interest.
