De l’étatique au local : le New Labour, l’individu et les valeurs de la communauté

Abstract

This article intends to emphasise that the movement of decentralisation pursued by New Labour rests on essential principles at the core of the New Labour political project: the Third Way. Its supporters seek in this way to build a new relationship between individuals, communities and government through the enhancement of a new individualism, a new conception of equality and the constitution of a ‘civic society’.
