Spatial risks and complex systems: methodological perspectives
2007
Research on risk and industrial catastrophes question the complexity theories. Besides the concepts of complexity which lead us to reconsider concepts of risk, hazard and vulnerability, we propose to think about more practical aspects, for example the modelling of human behaviour in crisis situations. The link between concepts as critical self-organization, emergence, bifurcation, and the methods in the Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) used to model them is however difficult. In this paper, we present ongoing analysis on the key concepts of risk science, such as hazards and catastrophes. We propose to enrich them with complex systems theories. First, we present methodological persp…

The Recomposition of Bureaucratic Forms in Territorial Development. Territorial Engineering and Intermediation in Project Territories
2013
L’ingénierie territoriale mobilise un répertoire de savoirs et d’objets intermédiaires au cœur du processus de création territoriale. Cet équipement cognitif est nécessaire à la cohésion de l’action publique multiniveaux au sein du territoire de projet. Dans ce contexte, bien que les modalités de gestion des contrats d’action publique ne dénaturent par la fonction médiatrice de ce répertoire, elles sont standardisées par les forces de l’isomorphisme institutionnel. L’ingénierie territoriale se bureaucratisant, elle administre des procédures qui font des territoires des segments d’exécution d’une politique définie indépendamment des enjeux territoriaux. At the heart of territorial processing…
Heather tiene 25 años. Madres y familias diversas en la literatura para primeros lectores (1990-2015)
2019
[EN] In 1989 was published the first edition of Heather has two mommies , that is considered the first children’s book of great diffusion about lesbian mothers. In Spain it was translated in 2003 under the title Paula tiene dos mamás. Since then, we have seen various legislative and social changes that have led to the generalization of this type of literature, although limited in most cases to some family and educational environments. On the other hand, the authors’ initial intention (to provide the sons and daughters of lesbian women with positive references of their own family models) has been complemented with other publications addressed to all the children from an inclusive and normali…
Ecosystem services mapping and assessment for policy- and decision-making : Lessons learned from a comparative analysis of European case studies
2020
This paper analyses and compares a set of case studies on ecosystem services (ES) mapping and assessment with the purpose of formulating lessons learned and recommendations. Fourteen case studies were selected during the EU Horizon 2020 “Coordination and Support Action” ESMERALDA to represent different policy- and decision-making processes throughout the European Union, across a wide range of themes, biomes and scales. The analysis is based on a framework that addresses the key steps of an ES mapping and assessment process, namely policy questions, stakeholder identification and involvement, application of mapping and assessment methods, dissemination and communication and implementation.

Wykorzystanie zasobów baz danych GIS na potrzeby analizy zróżnicowania obszarów wiejskich w aspekcie działań PROW = Application of GIS databases for …
2018
Realizacja działań w ramach Programu Rozwoju Obszarów Wiejskich (PROW) wymaga obiektywnego rozpoznania potrzeb ich wdrażania, w oparciu o wyniki analiz złożonych procesów przyrodniczych i ekono- miczno-demograficznych zachodzących w czasie i przestrzeni obszarów wiejskich. Wzrastająca funkcjonalność Systemów Informacji Geograficznej (GIS) oraz powszechna dostępność do informacji przestrzennej spowodowały, że bazy danych GIS i analizy geoprzestrzenne stały się skutecznym narzędziem wpierającym implementację działań PROW. Celem pracy jest przedstawienie możliwości wykorzystania danych geoinformacyjnych wybranych baz danych GIS do analizy zróżnicowania przestrzennego obszarów wiejskich wojewód…
Determinants of elimination decisions in the activity scheduling process
2016
[EN] This paper presents an analysis on the determinants related to a particular rescheduling decision in the activity-travel scheduling process: elimination decisions, which consist in the non-execution of pre-planned activity-travel episodes. Data used come from an in-depth computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) follow up survey carried out during the implementation of the first wave of an activity scheduling process panel survey. Open-ended answers related to the reasons associated to changes between pre-planned and executed agenda are studied. First, an interpretative qualitative method based on analytic induction (AI) is used to cope with the complex nature of the rescheduling de…

Agglomeration and dispersion of economic activities in and around Paris: An exploratory spatial data analysis
2010
The agglomeration patterns of twenty-six manufacturing and service sectors in and around Paris in 1999 are analysed. The method used measures the intensity of spatial agglomeration and identifies the location patterns of economic sectors. First the locational Gini coefficient and Moran’s I statistics of global spatial autocorrelation are computed. These provide different but complementary information about the spatial agglomeration of the sectors under study. Then exploratory spatial data analysis tools are applied. Moran scatterplots and local indicators of spatial association statistics reveal great diversity in location patterns across sectors.
Societal implications of sustainable energy action plans: from energy modelling to stakeholder learning
2019
This article investigates the potential impact of sustainable energy action plans (SEAPs) on local development through a two-step methodology involving participatory planning and quantitative analysis. The first phase relies on a participatory system mapping (PSM) approach and generates a causal structure at the basis of the urban model. In the second phase, we transform the qualitative map into a system dynamic model which evaluates the effect of the SEAP on social, economic and environmental indicators. This methodology was applied to the case of Cascina Municipality (Italy). Through scenario analysis, we show that some indirect feedback can harm the achievement of the 20% emission reduct…
