Le voyageur sans bagage ou l’épreuve du récit des mobilités : réflexivité de l’enquêté et méthode de cadrage

Une piece de theâtre de Jean Anouilh, Le voyageur sans bagage , illustre la situation d’un individu amene a se confronter a son propre passe, comme l’est l’enquete face a un enqueteur sollicitant un recit de vie. Un rejet partiel de ce passe est toujours possible : la personne met en œuvre des strategies pour dire et se montrer a soi-meme un passe acceptable. Apres examen de certaines de ces strategies, nous proposons une methode de captation qui permet de reduire les consequences des biais qui ne manquent pas d’apparaitre en situation d’enquete, dans le cas d’un recit de mobilite, recit de vie precisement oriente sur les mobilites de l’individu a l’echelle biographique, a partir d’un programme de recherche mene pour le compte du puca portant sur les valeurs mobilisees dans les discours de justification de la mobilite d’un echantillon de personnes.

A city made for leisure: trends in development/Penser la ville pour les loisirs : nouvelles tendances en aménagement

Society and Leisure presents this special issue about the spatial dimension of the relationships between recreation, in its various forms, and individuals, whether they practice recreational activities or not. This spatial dimension refers to the social and economic aspects of geography, as it is accurate in terms of description, analysis, and interpretation. However, it is also rooted in town and country planning, whether specifically urban or less dense and less diverse (Lévy, 2003). In other words, it is rooted in the action that intentionally changes (until constancy) the shape and function of anthropized environments. The proposed title, ‘A City Made for Leisure: Trends in Development’, has a dual purpose. On the one hand, it refers to urban design or planning, to the anticipation of expressed needs and foresight, but also to institutional and citizenship debates set up in order to inform this idea. On the other hand, it also refers to the current trends that are the spatial, concrete, and material transcription of this idea. We do not mean by this that the process behind the spatial project linearly goes from thoughts to action. Besides, the literature on this subject shows the exact opposite (Jolivet, 2012; Novarina, 2003; Soderström, 2000; Toussaint, 2003). As it was with builders in the Middle Ages, action and design work with each other throughout the actual realization (Aïm, 2010). This shows how setting objectives, although required, is nevertheless somewhat artificial given the complexity of the process which goes from a ‘before’ that we cannot date to an ‘after’ that we cannot stop. If we believed in a rational urban planning utopia (Dupuy, 1978), the gradual phasing out of this belief was accompanied by the diversification of both elected members’ and citizens’ expectations. For the elected official, it is a matter of drawing attention, of standing out on an international level (Dupont, 2013), while utilizing proven methods (Bailleul, 2009). For the citizen living in a society that promotes and provides the tools to reach individualism (Martuccelli, 2005), it is a matter of juggling between affirmed selfreferencing and inclusion in different entities throughout his actions, words, thoughts, and relationships. To sum up, the citizen oscillates between singularity and banality, between specificity and conformity. Furthermore, on both the institutional and individual fronts, objectives are less clearly defined, expectations are more diversified and demands are numerous. At the crossroads of these evolutions, recreation moves to the center of individual and societal concerns. Recreation emerged a very long time ago with the more idle and wealthier classes, with the dance halls of the Marne or the English invention of tourism, but its consideration by the government in order to meet demand and target economic development is much more
