Abstract

Le numéro 56 de 2009 des Cahiers Scientifiques du Transport rassemble des papiers présentés lors du colloque de l'ASRDLF (Association de Science Régionale de Langue Francaise) N° 45, Rimouski (Québec) , CANADA (25/08/2008) A new political space is emerging in Europe at the alpine scale. It tends to be structured around the issue of transalpine transit traffic, which has facilitated the gradual creation of a common and shared policy within the Alpine region. This paper analyzes the conditions and the challenges of an emerging geopolitical space around the Alps on the basis of two case studies. The first one deals with the project of a new railway link connecting Italy to France across the Alps, from Turin to Lyon. The significance of a major infra-structure project can be measured not only in terms of the amount of investment necessary for its construction, but also by analysing the project from a more political point of view. Actually, the definition of a great transport project often afford an interesting opportunity to launch a large debate on themes such as territorial planning and general aims and impacts of a transport policy. In such conditions, these projects provide an opportunity for new ideas and new knowledge to be raised and to enter the political decision-making process. Consequently, they often result in a change of political priorities, problems at stake and finding solutions within the transport political agendas. By analysing the evolution of the strategic goals that the Lyon-Turin project has integrated over time, this paper shows the emerging of an alpine dimension within the transportation policy debated in France and in Italy. The second case study supplements and enlarges the first one. It analyses the alpine cooperation systems dealing with transports issues and their development at the whole alpine arc scale. It aims at retracing the evolution in the representation of transalpine traffic issues in order to asses its impact on the development of transport policies in the region. The parallel between the 2 case studies will help understanding the mutual contributions of the two decision-making processes, which at the beginning had no common points. By showing the relation between the “alpinisation” of the Lyon-Turin project and the political changes within the alpine region, this paper endeavours to assess to which extent the decision making process concerning transit management has contributed towards the emergence of a geopolitical alpine space. Un nouvel espace de concertation politique est en train de prendre forme en Europe dans la région alpine. Il se structure autour de la problématique des trafics de transit transalpins, qui a facilité la construction progressive d'une politique de transports commune et partagée à l'échelle des Alpes. Cet article analyse les modalités et les enjeux de l'émergence d'un espace géopolitique dans la région alpine à partir de deux études de cas présentés sur la base d'une structure croisée. La première étude de cas concerne le projet d'une nouvelle liaison ferroviaire à travers les Alpes franco-italiennes, entre les deux villes de Lyon et Turin. L'évaluation d'un grand projet d'infrastructure ne se résume pas à une analyse économique, mais elle nécessite d'une approche plus large, capable de rendre compte des enjeux politiques attachés à sa réalisation. La définition d'un grand projet d'infrastructure constitue souvent une opportunité unique pour lancer un débat plus large sur des thématiques concernant la planification territoriale et les objectifs généraux de la politique des transports. Dans ces conditions, ces projets créent les conditions pour l'affirmation de nouvelles idées et connaissances au sein des processus décisionnels. Par conséquent, ils se traduisent souvent par des changements de priorités politiques ou de représentation des problèmes collectifs. En analysant l'évolution des objectifs stratégiques assignés au projet Lyon-Turin au fil de son histoire, cet article s'attache à expliquer l'émergence d'une dimension alpine des politiques de transport discutées en France et en Italie. La deuxième étude de cas vient compléter et approfondir la première. Elle analyse les dispositifs institutionnels mis en place dans l'espace alpin dès la fin des années 1990 et vise à reconstruire l'évolution de la représentation de la question des trafics transalpins et son impact sur l'élaboration des politiques de transport dans cette région. Le parallèle entre les deux études de cas permet de comprendre les apports réciproques de deux processus décisionnels, celui d'un projet franco-italien et celui de la négociation des mesures de régulation du transit, qui au départ étaient indépendants. En mettant en lumière la relation entre l'« alpinisation » du Lyon-Turin et les évolutions des politiques de transports à l'échelle des Alpes, cet article s'attache à évaluer la mesure dans laquelle ce double processus participe de l'émergence d'un « espace géopolitique alpin des transports ».

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
