Résumé anglais |
With the publication of the book Géographie Humaine a controversy arose between the concept of 'man as an inhabitant' and the materialist view of man as producer and consumer. For Maurice Le Lannou the notion of inhabiting implied the ideas of permanence, occupation, creation and living in symbiosis with a given place. The notion might appear out-dated, given the global scale of exchanges and the lack of spatial constraints on production. However, it takes on a particular meaning with respect to the present conflict in Yugoslavia which is characterised by the high process of ethnic cleansing. This process of 'territorial cleansing', which is much older and more widespread that is generally admitted, highlights the right to inhabit as an antidote against totalitarianism.
