African and Gypsy categorizations in France
The process of ethnicization in ordinary discourse
In France, Bulgarian and Romanian migrants identified as “Roma” and usually living in slums are regularly the targets of categorizations, of rejection and of xenophobic violence. Even though other immigrated populations, such as Africans, have been subject to this type of ostracism for some time, the spectre of racism and xenophobia has spread under the effect of the diffusion of a number of political and media discourses. Whether coming from the right or the left of the political spectrum, these differentialist discourses stem from the highest level of the State, and have been regularly relayed by the media, thus legitimizing their presence within the French public space.

The demolition of major social housing projects: expectations of effect and space
La démolition dans les grands ensembles d’habitat social est devenue depuis une dizaine d’années une pratique courante, dotée de financements considérables et promue par un organisme officiel, l’Agence nationale pour la rénovation urbaine. Cette politique de démolition fait l’objet d’un consensus apparent de la part des acteurs institutionnels. Or, elle ne va pas sans poser nombre de questions à la fois théoriques et pratiques, éthiques et techniques. Dès lors, on peut faire l’hypothèse que cette politique paradoxale et paroxystique peut se révéler éclairante sur le rapport à l’espace qu’entretiennent la société et l’action publique.
