“…Territorial policies have more and more focused on promoting local actors' mobilisation rather than focused on redistributive issues or direct support to economic development. In a context of limited public resources, cities have to elaborate their own projects in order to compete for the allocation of central State resources (Be´har & Este`be, 1999;Pinson, 2009).…”

Two concurrent changes are raising questions about the interplay between armed forces and local governments in contemporary urban settings. The first one is the spatial reorganisation of armed forces that has been taking place in most European countries since the end of the Cold War. The second one is the redistribution of political authority between levels of governments that has increased the relevance of cities and transformed urban governance. The chapter conceptualises the military administration as an urban actor, whose material and symbolic resources in cities transform over time. It investigates both the effects of a (changing) military presence on urban policies, and how those changes are framed and managed by local governments. The case under consideration is the city of Taranto (Southern Italy), one among the biggest military ports on the Mediterranean Sea. Here, transformations of defence policies opened a window of opportunity for a new urban policy agenda,

“…Urban policies were brought to the forefront in the 1990s. In most European countries, states began to delegate the implementation of development policies to the urban elites (Béhar and Estèbe 2009). The consequences were the growing importance of heritage in urban regeneration policies and new consideration for ancient districts, for the former topography and for the facades of buildings.…”

International audienceIn west-European countries, public policies often argue that heritage - and in particular industrial heritage - could be an effective resource for economic and social development in areas that have been severely affected by de-industrialisation. During the 1990s, the French and British governments proposed two different strategies for the role that industrial heritage might have in repairing the effects of deindustrialisation. From a general point of view, the British promoted tourism, while the French preferred cultural projects. However, concrete examples, such as the ones presented in the present article, show a more complex situation. First, already at that time local authorities and local powers played an important role - especially in Great Britain - in the politics of heritage. Second, these politics are impacted by struggles and tensions between local populations and 'external' agents. Third, the local populations see these heritage-based development projects as being based on a 'mythification' of labour and of the workers' culture. Finally, local populations seem to feel that such projects are imposed from 'the outside', which tends to result in local agents not fully accepting or identifying themselves with such heritage-based projects

“…Ainsi, les administrations nationales élaboraient des politiques sur la base d'une vision intégrée du territoire national, affectant à chacune de ses parties une fonction dans une sorte de division territoriale du travail. Les États avaient à l'époque un projet pour le territoire (Béhar, Estèbe, 1999).…”

En décembre 2006, le maire de Saint-Étienne, Michel Thiollière était désigné comme « Cinquième meilleur maire du monde » par le site Internet City Mayors.Pourtant aucune publicité de grande ampleur ne fut faite de cette récompense dans la ville. A partir de cette anecdote, l'article traite des motivations qui amènent un maire urbain à s'investir dans une politique de relations internationales (jumelages, insertion dans les réseaux de ville, voyages d'études à l'étranger, etc.). Ce type d'activités est indissociablement vecteur de ressources exploitables à la fois dans le domaine des stratégies de légitimation politique d'un maire et dans celui de l'action publique urbaine, de la recherche de solutions à des problèmes publics. Toutefois dans un contexte de transformation des formes de légitimation des élus urbains, il semble que c'est surtout le second type de ressources qui soit recherché dans ces activités internationales.An enigma lies at the beginning of this article. In December 2006, the mayor of Saint-Etienne, Michel Thiollière was elected as the "5 th Best Mayor in the World" by the Internet Site City Mayors. Yet, no publicity was made locally around this award. Taking this anecdote as a starting point, this article deals with the motivations that can lead a city mayor to get involved in an urban international relationships policy (city twining, participation in cities networks, study trips, etc.). These activities provide both resources for the building up of a political legitimacy and for electoral control on the one hand, and resources in urban policymaking, to find out solutions to urban public problems on the other hand. Nevertheless, in a context of transformation of the process of legitimization of urban elected officials, the second kind of resources seems to be the one that is most sought in the involvement in international activities.
