Résumé anglais The Girondine strain in the political culture of Aquitaine, Pierre Guillaume. How can one speak of the political culture of a region with an uncertain identity in which election results reflect voting instability and heterogeneity? The originality of Aquitaine behavior - the cultivation of the art of compromise - makes it possible to measure the distance between the political culture of a given region and that of the national community. Regional studies bring nuances to simplifying ideas such as that of the Radical soil of Aquitaine and show the importance of political pragmatism of both voters and leaders. Thus the Girondine myth which undoubtedly impregnates the Aquitaine political culture has served the demands for both autonomy and greater state intervention. Its present adaptation to the requirements of decentralization is a good example of the transformation capacity of representations to the needs of the times.
