Résumé anglais |
Medium-sized towns have already been brought back into broad daylight in the field of the inter-regional planning but also in what concerns the identity of these towns and in the future they are likely to give to their populations - mainly from the rural surroundings. If, at first, that is to say within two - or even one - generations these medium-sized towns have enabled their new citizens to become part of the middle classes, to-day they are unable to retain the most qualified social groups and especially the new social elites related to new technologies ; or, precisely, the medium-sized towns are trying to draw these new technologies which carry dynamics : their ways are more or less the same, yet with unequal assets. To start again weakened dynamics, to improve an intermediate situation in the urban hierarchy in pushing forward the limits which are locally set to the social mobility is the new challenge that a great number of medium-sized towns are trying to win.
