Urban Citizenship Between Participation and Securitization – the Case of the Multiethnic French Banlieue
Regimes of Hospitality Linköping University No. 650 REGIMES OF HOSPITALITY Urban Citizenship between Participation and Securitization – the Case of the Multiethnic French Banlieue Christophe Foultier Department of Social- and Welfare studies Linköping University, Sweden Linköping À Claude, Dominique, Sophie, À Stanley, Sandy et Nedzad, À Rafael, Salomé et Petronella, Pour faire de l’hospitalité un art de vivre. Regimes of Hospitality © Christophe Foultier, 2015 Cover: Per Lagman Design: Richard Lindmark Printed in Sweden by LiU-Tryck, Linköping, Sweden, 2015 ISBN 978-91-7519-027-3 ISSN 0282-9800 ABSTRACT This thesis analyzes various local development policies in Europe’s big urban areas. Striving to understand the respective places accorded to the measures to increase the participation of the inhabitants on the one hand, and to improve for security and public peace in the context of social and territorial policies on the other, I examine how urban poli- cies define models of urban citizenship. The empirical work concerns two sites in the greater metropolitan area of Paris, Le Franc-Moisin– Bel-Air in Saint-Denis and Les Cinq Quartiers in Les Mureaux. It consists of an analysis of public documents as well as a series of inter- views and observations. This methodological approach serves to gain an understanding of how participative and security procedures emerge in the history of French urban policy and how these norms interact locally. By investigating the overlap of security politics and participa- tory devices, I demonstrate that deprived areas do not have access to an adequate form of intervention to meet the expectations and needs of its inhabitants, who are squeezed between a logic of development reluctantly accepted by, but rarely negotiated with its inhabitants, and a logic of security that often leads to the confinement of residents to their respective areas. -

The question, however, remains as to what extent this report- ed scepticism truly reflects people’s opinions and feelings about Europe. We all consider it normal to cross borders within Europe, often while using the same money, as well as to take part in exchange programmes, invest in enterprises across Europe and appeal to European institutions if national regulations, for example, do not meet our expectations. -

This article explores these two representations of political France and analyses the elections in relation to the wider French political context. It discusses the electoral dynamics that enabled the traditional parties to preserve their duopoly of regional power despite the increasingly intrusive challenge to their hegemony mounted by an ever more electorally potent FN. KEY WORDS France; French elections; regions; regional elections; Front National (FN); political parties 2 Winner Loses All: The 2015 French Regional Elections James Shields School of Languages and Social Sciences, Aston University, Birmingham, UK Introduction On 6 and 13 December 2015, French voters went to the polls to elect regional councils across metropolitan France and in four of five overseas territories. There are 18 French regions in all: mainland France counts 12, metropolitan France 13 (mainland regions plus Corsica), and the overseas territories of Guadeloupe, Guyane, Martinique, Mayotte and La Réunion make up the remaining 5.
