Les conflits d'usage des espaces périurbains et le contentieux administratif. Le cas de la région Ile-de-France

The article provides an analysis of land-use conflicts extract from the rulings of French Administrative Courts from 1981 to 2005. It focuses on Paris?s suburb, where the urbanisation process and the diversity of land-use require a deeper comprehension of the problem. Our results show that the land-use conflict?s evolution is correlated with the urbanisation process. They also detect a coupling phenomenon between conflict?s type and territory?s parameters : urbanism disputes often arise in wealthy municipalities, whereas oppositions to public infrastructure have particularly risen in strongly urbanising towns. Classified industrial facility?s nuisances have been found in unfortunate municipalities.
