Clean management of nature on the Crau plain and in the Var forest
Based on an analysis of two agri-environmental operations that combine raising livestock with protecting nature in southern France, this study focuses on how links are socially constructed between natural functions (as formalized by ecologists and fire wardens) and agricultural practices. Rather than running in a straight line from diagnosing the environment to implementing appropriate solutions, this process brings together quite heterogeneous facts, models and agents in constantly expanding sociotechnical networks. Taking nature into account causes quite different social configurations to emerge : what used to be deemed « archaic » techniques in the Crau area (and among persons who raise livestock) are being revived, whereas, in the Var, the position of new social agents claiming to be qualified as innovative environmental engineers is being reinforced.
