space to urban, regional, national and international scales. Case studies outside France,
inter- or transnational comparisons, the international circulation of techniques (and associated practices, discourses and imaginations) are very welcome.

needed, before submitting an article proposal.
Colleagues who wish to ensure that their proposed contribution fits well into the themed
issue can send the coordinators a declaration of intent, in the form of a summary of the
proposed contribution, and ask for feedback.

online as they are accepted, after formatting in the journal's format.
