Des mots du politique aux maux du territoire. La performativité des récits métropolitains dans la gouvernance de la nature estuarienne
Abstract
Based on fieldwork in Bordeaux metropolis and Gironde estuary areas, this article proposes a sociology of land use planning through a policy narrative framework. Territorial interdependencies redefined by the function of nature facing flooding risks allow us to analyze the construction of city/nature interdependencies. The study of performative effects of three metropolitan narratives of sustainable development highlights the cognitive dimension of performative governance to plan present and future territorial interconnections.
