Une approche exploratoire des inégalités environnementales et écologiques dans l’agglomération de La Rochelle

Abstract

The notion of environmental and ecological inequalities proposed in 2002 at the world submit in Johannesburg allows linking the notions of sustainable development and social justice. This paper’s aim is to compare residents’ perception and behaviors with local representatives’ visions of these inequalities questions according to the municipality’s type. Observing their institutional position allows evaluating the level of integration of environmental problematics linked to those inequalities. Territorial and access inequalities are analyzed through the themes of the urban density, transportation, social housing and land management.
