La mobilité périurbaine : le changement, c’est pour quand ?

Is there an effective change in the mobility system of the suburban area in the Île-de-France ? How to identify it ? This article aims at updating the evolving (or not evolving) residential and daily mobility patterns through three case studies in the Île-de-France. Results show that change doesn’t challenge the whole system but rather consists of adaptive measures. Evolution in the use of car ensures the global system’s stability. Those adaptive measures are nevertheless the source of new [...]

Quels changements dans le rapport des jeunes lyonnais à l’automobile ?

This paper studies the changes in the young adults’ relationship to cars.

It can be related to financial burden, but also to the [...]

Lorsque la mobilité territorialise.

Des pratiques individuelles de mobilité à la mobilisation de solidarités collectives de proximité.

Nous proposons, dans cet article, de mettre en perspective et de réinterroger différents travaux sur la mobilité périurbaine (Brès 2006, Cailly 2008, Chardonnel et Louargant 2007, Dodier 2009) pour développer l’hypothèse suivante : la mobilité, en tant qu’opérateur de continuité spatio-temporelle dans le quotidien des ménages, sollicite des relations fondées sur la proximité spatiale. Elle mobilise de ce fait des identités de territoire et participe, en retour, à la production de nouvelles identités collectives. Pour ce faire, nous partons [...]
