Résumé anglais ABSTRACT The countryside is in the cours? of being restructured with emphasis to maximum profitability. This evolution is characterised by a reduction in agricultural land, and the release of land from production which becomes protected land or contributes ot outdoor recreating. Country parks, both national and regional, are elements of this new planning of the countryside. The former are particularly aimed at protecting nature ; the latter at dealing with the urban population which comes to relax in them. They are part of the mechanism and evolution of the whole of society. In France, legislation on country parks is recent ; it is characterised by great rigidity in the case of the national parks, essentially they form a framework for the co-ordination of development plans for protected land. In these parks, the conflicts between the different users of the countryside — the traditional and the modern — are almost everywhere aggravated. Laboratories of the new country planning — yet without great financial endowment — the parks are also remarkable observatories of social evolution.
