actualisés sur la question urbaine. Cela passe par certains déplacements de
l’analyse et un renouvellement des problématiques. Alors que la question des

geography and history as a producer, a receiver and an exporter of knowledge.
The analysis of processes which are often simultaneous, of institutionalization
and circulation are questioned from the study of literature and documents to
ethnographic observations including the decryption of virtual contents.
