Jean-Pierre Worms and Emmanuèle Reynaud : Urban Renewal of Les Halles in Paris: Social Requests and Requirements and Urban Planning.
This article studies decision making processes, from 1959 to 1975, concerning renewal of the Parisian district containing Les Halles. Relating the processes of mobilizing the local population and formulating a social demand to the characteristics of the Parisian politico-administrative system brings out two constants in the decision making processes. First, within the political system, there is a « regressive progression », a kind of decisional spiral for which institutional conflict is a way of making progress. Second, the relationships between the institutional system and the population follow a process with an analogous spiral. In the last case however, the internal therapeutical crisis becomes a serious crisis involving legitimacy. Since the legal proceedings of the Parisian decision making system and relationships with inhabitants proceed almost exclusively through crises, an extreme situation develops: the decision is marked either by internal conflicts (heavy equipment) or by measures ? the please-all solutions ? hurriedly taken in order to appease a popular movement. Subsequently foreseeable management risks stressing these two tendencies even more. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
