This thesis examines the mobility patterns of 613 participants from the At Home/Chez Soi Research Demonstration Project on Mental Health and Homelessness who were surveyed in five Canadian cities (Vancouver, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montréal, and Moncton). Participants’ mobility histories are treated as life courses: visualized using a GIS spatiotemporal analysis and complemented by examining their self-described reasons for movement (n=1,750). I contend that homeless mobilities are complex, entangled, and multiple. To better understand these mobilities, I apply relational theoretical perspectives to literature from the mobilities turn. I conceptualize mobility as composed of the relations between various actors. These relations coordinate amidst social differences, histories, and orderings of power. Together, actors and the relations between them, become more than the sum of their parts. To see mobility relationally, is to say that mobilities have emergent properties that reproduce, deepen, or ameliorate marginalization for those experiencing homelessness. I identify a series of actors and their relations composing homeless mobilities via time-space mapping, descriptive statistics, and the exploratory coding of survey data. I conclude by detailing a relational view of homeless mobilities while suggesting that expulsion is one emergent property of this system. / October 2016

Cette recherche porte sur la migration de citoyens de pays du Nord dans les Territoires Palestiniens Occupés (TPO). Elle vise à analyser les trajectoires sociales et migratoires de ces individus, désignés localement « internationaux », ainsi qu'à montrer comment ils sont des acteurs dans la situation locale au travers de leurs mobilités, leurs emplois et leurs engagements. Cette problématique de recherche s'inscrit au croisement de deux phénomènes : d'une part, la diversification et l'accroissement des migrations internationales, et plus spécifiquement celles allant du Nord vers le Sud, et, d'autre part, l'émergence de conditions matérielles et professionnelles favorables à l'arrivée de citoyens étrangers dans un pays en conflit, sous l'effet de l'afflux massif de l'aide internationale depuis les années 1990. L'étude des profils sociaux des « internationaux » résidant dans les TPO révèle une forte homogénéité sociale et culturelle : on observe ainsi une migration de jeunes hautement diplômés, issus de familles de classes moyennes supérieures d'Europe ou d'Amérique du Nord, et particulièrement dotés en capitaux culturels. Toutefois, l'analyse des trajectoires souligne une certaine diversité des parcours migratoires et des liens entretenus à la Palestine. La seconde partie de cette thèse s'intéresse à la place politique et sociale des « internationaux » dans l'espace israélo-palestinien. La question des mobilités est cruciale pour saisir la position inédite de cette population migrante. Sa présence dans les TPO fait l'objet d'un contrôle important et croissant de la part des autorités israéliennes qui cherchent à la limiter et à la surveiller. Dans le même temps, à l'intérieur de l'espace israélo-palestinien, les « internationaux » bénéficient de droits à la mobilité dont sont privés les Palestiniens. L'étude des privilèges et des tensions qui en ressortent permet d'interroger les positionnements et le rôle de ces étrangers. Enfin, deux autres thématiques sont explorées : leur participation au système de l'aide internationale et leur engagements politiques vis-à-vis de la cause palestinienne. Tour à tour, pris dans les dynamiques sociopolitiques locales et partie prenante de ces mêmes dynamiques, les citoyens étrangers résidant dans les TPO représentent pour la recherche une entrée heuristique pour penser les circulations Nord-Sud comme la situation palestinienne actuelle. / This PhD research studies the current migration of nationals from northern countries to the occupied Palestinian territories (oPt). It aims to analyze the social and migratory trajectories of those called "internationals" and attempts to highlight how, through their mobility practices, work and political engagements, they can be considered a new group of actors in the oPt. This core question falls within two global and regional phenomena: first, the increase and diversification of international migration, especially North to South flows, and secondly, the vast rate of international assistance to the oPt since the 1990s, which has resulted in the emergence of tangible conditions conducive to the migration of foreign citizens to a conflict zone. By examining their social features, a strong social and cultural homogeneity of an apparently divers group of individuals becomes apparent; it is a migration of relatively young, affluent people from the upper middle classes of Europe or North America, endowed with cultural and international capital. However, the study of the trajectories that led them to oPt reveals a diversity of migratory paths and links to Palestine. The second part of my PhD thesis tackles the social and political role and position of "internationals". Mobility rights and practices are a relevant and challenging angle to discuss the atypical position of such migrants. Indeed, Israeli authorities seek to monitor, control and limit foreign presence in the oPt (through a variety of measures), transforming privileged people into suspected and unwanted individuals. Yet inside the Israeli-Palestinian space, they are granted mobility privileges which allow them to circulate freely while Palestinians are rendered immobile in their homeland. The study of these privileges and the resulting tension calls into question internationals' position in Palestinian society. Finally, internationals' participation in the aid regime and the political actions taken by some migrants on the Palestinian cause are addressed. Through the political and socio-economic implications of their presence, western citizens living in the oPt are an heuristic point of entry to contribute to the fields of North-South migration studies and Palestinian studies.

La coordination des institutions, par le biais de la création d’un périmètre de transport unique, est-elle la solution la mieux à même de faciliter le report modal au bénéfice des modes collectifs dans l’agglomération multipolaire azuréenne ? L’inadaptation des réseaux aux mobilités actuelles engendre des problèmes aigus de gestion du transport public. Cette inadaptation repose sur l’inadéquation des structures institutionnelles qui ne sont pas à la bonne échelle. Les pôles multiples doivent être reliés à des réseaux urbains interdépendants et cette nécessité s’accompagne de l’invention de nouvelles formes de gouvernement. Le travail comporte un premier chapitre présentant le cadre théorique de la relation entre agglomération multipolaire, institutions et organisation du transport dans un contexte spatial dense. En effet, les AOTU étaient, au départ, distinctes, ce choix étant justifié par l’état de l’urbanisation lors de leur création, mais elles gèrent des territoires désormais jointifs. Or, on ne peut imposer un périmètre conforme à un bassin de vie, d’où des inadaptations flagrantes.Un deuxième chapitre étudie les actions des autorités organisatrices du transport public dans l’espace multipolaire azuréen : la complexité de l’organisation institutionnelle est-elle la proie d’un effet de frontière entre AO ? Le Département est en retrait face à la croissance des AOTU et notamment de Métropole Nice Côte d’Azur ; cela forme un espace politique inadapté au contexte géographique. Une nouvelle structure fédérative, le SYMITAM, est créée mais ne remplit pas son rôle de coordination ; devant seconder le Département, elle est mise de fait au service de l’AOTU la plus conquérante.Enfin, grâce à l’analyse des mobilités et notamment par la mesure des actifs stables et sortants de chaque commune, et par les axes de TCSP, de TER et les pôles d’échanges qu’il serait nécessaire d’implanter pour mieux organiser les interrelations entre le littoral et le sous-ensemble intérieur, un troisième chapitre propose une résorption de l’effet de frontière par l’élaboration de nouveaux périmètres institutionnels. Nous montrons les AO les plus à même d’organiser la gestion de ce nouveau format territorial afin de contrecarrer la parcellisation institutionnelle. / Can the coordination of institutions, through the creation of a unique transport perimeter in the multipolar urban area of French Riviera, have a significant role in the modal shift ? The inadequacy of the current mobility networks creates acute problems of management of public transport. This maladjustment is based on the inadequacy of the institutional structures that are not at the right level. Multiple poles must be linked to interdependent urban networks and this necessity comes the invention of new forms of government.The work involves a first chapter with the theoretical framework of the relationship between multipolar agglomeration, institutions and organisation of transport in a dense spatial context. Indeed, the AOTU were initially separate, this choice was justified by the State of urbanization in their creation, but they manage now bearings territories. However, one cannot impose a perimeter consistent with a pool of life, hence of gross maladjustments.A second chapter studied the actions of the organizing authorities of public transport in the multipolar space azurean : the complexity of the institutional organization is prey to a border between AO effect ? The Department is indented to the growth of the AOTU and including Metropole Nice Côte d'Azur. A new federal structure, the SYMITAM, is created but does not fulfil its role of coordinator; to assist the Department, she becomes the puppet of the conquering AOTU.Finally, through analysis of mobility and in particular by measurement of stable and outgoing assets of each municipality, and the axes of TCSP, TER and the pole of exchanges that it would be necessary to implement to better organize the interrelationships between the coastline and the internal subset, a third chapter proposes a resorption of the effect of border by the development of new institutional perimeters. We show the AO the most capable of organizing the management of this new territorial format in order to counteract the institutional fragmentation.

This thesis examines perceptions of sustainability and sustainable urban development among actors involved in the project of rebuilding Slussen in central Stockholm. Views on the suggested new traffic solution and what would make a sustainable solution, the concepts of sustainability and sustainable urban development and how these concepts are interpreted and applied as policy, are especially investigated. A semi-structured qualitative interview study has been carried out and the respondents include city officials, politicians, representatives of interest groups, consultants and researchers. Stockholm, European Green Capital in 2010, sets high goals for sustainability. As concept, sustainability is also frequently used in much of the city´s planning material such as the budget, environmental programme and urban development documents. However, it has not been included in the goals of the Slussen project. Even though, interviewees representing the city view the project as a sustainability project whereas other respondents clearly question this view. The study suggests that a determining factor for this division is how the sustainability concept is defined (or not), also how car traffic is viewed in urban sustainable development. The thesis shows that instead of planning for sustainable transportation, traditional business-as-usual traffic planning has dominated the Slussen project. The main reasons are that the new traffic solution, although including new walking and cycling bridges as well as a new bus terminal, includes planning for increased car traffic, an eight lane bridge to provide for it and a high degree of separation instead of integration of transport modes. Many of the interviewees also perceive of the suggested new main bridge as a motorway and the walking bridge as being both socially and culturally unsustainable in its long and narrow design. The new traffic solution in itself is viewed as unsustainable since it would bring about the abandonment of a more than 300 year old tradition of double and equal bridges at Slussen. Finally, the study suggests that the planned new traffic solution would have both looked different and been perceived of as more sustainable if sustainability had been included in the project goals. However, this would only have been the case if the concept was properly defined and implemented.

People, objects, values, information and images circulate each day more intensively and widely in a social environment which is fluid, connected and risky. When mobility becomes an important element of everyday experience and physical, geographic, virtual or imaginary displacements take front row in the relationships and radically alter the ways of life in all spheres – social, cultural, political and economic – then mobility culture imposes itself and involves everybody in new possibilities and experiences, as well as, in new constraints, risks and discourses that have to be studied. The ever going intense imbrication between mobility culture and advertising discourse constitutes the basis that sustains the thesis and stablishes the two fundamental premises in the study: first, that things in the world reaches the subject regardless of its immobility, by means of objects, information and images that circulate globally; second, that regardless of its commercial, persuasive and selling character, advertising can also be seen as a cultural good that expresses the culture to which it belongs. The articulation of these two premises constitutes the main interest and the object of this research: considering the act of advertising as representation of society, we intend to investigate, within the perspective of the New Mobility Paradigm, how movement is expressed in the advertisement discourse of global brands. The interpretation of global advertisement discourse aims at validating the hypothesis that there is consumption of (im)mobility when the person looks for objects that, depending on their availability (ready-to-hand) and on their potential of use in relation to the environment (affordance), support his everyday (im)mobility, with a certain amount of stability and less risk. The locus of the investigation was Brazil and the study focused its analysis on the 32 years encompassed in the period from 1982 to 2014. Advertisements of brands published in the magazine VEJA during the period of the three FIFA World Cups – 1982 in Spain; 1998 in France, and 2014 in Brazil were analysed. / No mundo, hoje, tudo está em movimento. Pessoas, objetos, valores, informação e imagens circulam cada dia mais intensa e extensamente em um ambiente social fluido, em rede e de riscos. Quando a mobilidade torna-se parte importante da experiência cotidiana e os deslocamentos físicos, geográficos, virtuais ou imaginativos tomam a frente nas relações e alteram radicalmente os modos de vida em todas as esferas - social, cultural, política e econômica -, nesse momento uma cultura da mobilidade se impõe e envolve a todos em novas possibilidades e experiências, assim como, em novos constrangimentos, riscos e discursos que devem ser estudados. O cada dia mais intenso imbricamento entre a cultura da mobilidade e o discurso publicitário constitui a base que sustenta a tese e que delineia as duas premissas fundamentais do estudo: a primeira, de que as coisas do mundo chegam até o sujeito apesar de sua imobilidade, por meio dos objetos, das informações e das imagens que circulam globalmente; e, a segunda premissa, de que a despeito de seu caráter comercial, persuasivo e de vendas, a publicidade também pode ser encarada como um bem cultural que expressa a cultura da qual faz parte. É na articulação destas duas premissas que reside o interesse primordial e o objeto de estudo da pesquisa: ao considerar o fazer publicitário como representação da sociedade, investigar, a partir da perspectiva do Paradigma das Novas Mobilidades, como o movimento é expresso discursivamente na publicidade das marcas globais. A interpretação do discurso publicitário global teve como objetivo validar a hipótese de que há um consumo de (i)mobilidade sendo feito quando o indivíduo sai em busca de objetos que, a partir de sua disponibilidade (ready-to-handness) e potencial de uso em relação ao ambiente (affordance), suportem sua (i)mobilidade cotidiana com certa estabilidade e menor risco. O locus da investigação é o Brasil e o estudo focou sua análise nos 32 anos relativos ao período de 1982 a 2014. Foram selecionados anúncios de marcas veiculados na revista Veja durante o período de três Copas do Mundo FIFA: de 1982, na Espanha; de 1998, na França; e de 2014, no Brasil, que cobrem o período proposto pela pesquisa.

Cette thèse prend pour objet les parcours biographiques d'émigrés comoriens et togolais, en s'intéressant à la double dimension de ces mobilités internationales, entendues à la fois comme des processus de mobilité spatiale et comme des trajectoires de mobilité sociale. Pour étudier ces mobilités, l'enquête a été menée en France et dans les deux pays d'origine. Près de 200 récits de vie, complétés par des observations au sein des familles, ont pu être réalisés auprès de non-émigrés, d'émigrés, d'émigrés de retour et de leurs proches. La recherche questionne le franchissement des frontières internationales comme moyen de s'affranchir des frontières sociales nationales, c'est-à-dire les manières dont les émigrés s'approprient la mobilité internationale et peuvent converti leurs expériences migratoires en ressources leur permettant de s'engager dans un processus de mobilité sociale ascendante. Cette enquête souligne que les histoires migratoires nationales, les conditions politiques restrictives de la mobilité internationale et les dispositions familiales à la migration se combinent pour construire des parcours inégaux. La comparaison multidimensionnelle entre des émigrés originaires de deux pays, aux propriétés sociales diverses, met d'abord en lumière l'influence centrale des histoires familiales et du milieu social d'origine des émigrés dans l'explication des parcours individuels. L'enquête démontre par ailleurs que les mobilités internationales conduisent les émigrés à traverser plusieurs espaces sociaux et nationaux et à s'engager dans des trajectoires qui mêlent à la fois des expériences d'immobilité et de mobilité sociale. Au-delà de ces expériences individuelles contrastées, la thèse indique enfin que la migration participe tout autant à reproduire les inégalités qu'à brouiller les frontières sociales du pays d'origine. / This thesis explores the life course of Comorian and Togolese migrants by focusing on. the dual dimension of international mobility, understood both as a spatial mobility process and as a social mobility trajectory. In order to investigate this mobility, the study was both conducted in France and in the two countries of origin. Nearly 200 life stories of non-migrants. migrants, returning migrants and their close relations were collected and completed by observations within the families. The research questions the crossing of international borders as a mean to overcome national social boundaries, that is to say, the ways migrants appropriate international mobility and convert their experiences into resources allowing them to begin a process of upward social mobility. This study stresses that the national migration history, the restrictive political conditions of international mobility and the families' dispositions for migration ail combine to create unequal individual courses. The multidimensional comparison of migrants from both countries that show diverse social characteristics highlights the central influence of family history and migrants' social background in the explanation of their persona! trajectories. The study also demonstrates that international mobility pushes migrants to cross several national and social spaces and to engage in paths that combine both experiences of immobility and social mobility. Beyond these contrasting individual experiences, the thesis finally shows that the migration process is perpetuating inequalities as well as blurring the social boundaries in the countries of origin.

Au tournant du XIXe siècle, Teplitz est une ville thermale renommée à la frontière de la Bohême du Nord et de la Saxe. Il s’agit aussi de la seigneurie des Clary-Aldringen, une maison noble de la monarchie des Habsbourg élevée au rang princier en 1767. Durant la décennie révolutionnaire, les mobilités familiales entre Vienne, Prague et Teplitz se déroulent en même temps que la circulation d’un nombre croissant de baigneurs, parmi lesquels les fonctionnaires de la monarchie, les vétérans des armées de Prusse, de Saxe et d’Autriche ou les nobles francophones en exil. Les correspondances et les journaux comme ceux de Charles-Joseph de Clary-Aldringen (1777-1831) contiennent de précieuses informations sur la manière dont cette grande famille vécut le temps des révolutions et des restaurations en Europe centrale. Avec les comptabilités et les documents administratifs, les Clary-Aldringen ont également laissé de riches sources iconographiques qui présentent un regard original sur le monde de la « première société » au tournant du XIXe siècle. Leurs archives éclairent une période où le théâtre, la peinture et la littérature de société répondent à une quête identitaire née au moment des émigrations comme celle du prince de Ligne accueilli par sa belle famille à Teplitz en 1794. Cette thèse propose d’examiner le fonctionnement de cette maison princière pour mieux comprendre les transformations de la culture aristocratique qui accompagnent les transformations du pouvoir juridique et politique de la noblesse à l’échelle des seigneuries comme dans le concert des nations du XIXe siècle.Quels sont les enjeux d’une vie construite à Teplitz et dans le monde, alors que les bouleversements de la fin de l’époque moderne entraînent la recomposition de l’Europe des dynasties ? Les aspects éducatifs, les mobilités dans la monarchie et à l’étranger ou l’usage du français et de l’allemand sont des éléments essentiels pour aborder une période de refondation de la légitimité aristocratique avec la disparition du Saint-Empire Romain Germanique et la politique des congrès menée après 1815. Les recherches dans les archives de cette grande famille francophone visent ainsi à interroger la conception aristocratique d’une « Europe des Habsbourg » entre la Révolution française et le Printemps des peuples. / At the turn of the 19th century, Teplitz was a well-known spa at the border between North Bohemia and Saxony. It was also part of the seignorial estates of the Clary-Aldringen family who had been promoted to Princely House in 1767. The first Princes of Clary- Aldringen led an aristocratic way of life in their palaces in Vienna and Prague and in their castle in Teplitz. The letters and diaries written by Charles Joseph of Clary-Aldringen provide essential information to understand how this aristocratic family faced the challenges of the revolutions and restorations in Central Europe. Those were unstable times when political and social powers became questioned while new nations were emerging in central Europe.What is at stake then in their lives when the revolutionary upheavals unbalance the dynastic order in Europe? This research aims to analyse how this princely House managed to face the transformations in aristocratic culture at the end of the Holy Roman Empire and in the first decades of the Austrian empire. Indeed the Clary-Aldringen left a hoard of visual documents also with financial and administrative records, all showing the striking features of the “First Society” in the Habsburg monarchy. The archives lead us back to a period when amateur theatre, paintings and writings were given pride of place. The exceptional variety of the documents found allows us to better apprehend how the aristocrats of the Habsburg monarchy conceived their roles and their legitimacy in Europe during the period of revolutions and just before the Spring of the Peoples. One decisive key lies in the fact that this family kept travelling over Europe after 1792.

Alors que dans les médias, les migrations sont présentées comme le résultat de crises humanitaires, l’expatriation et la mobilité internationale sont dépeintes comme les résultats naturels d’une globalisation qui sert autant aux pays du Sud qu’au pays du Nord. Or, un nombre grandissant d’Européens font le choix de s’installer dans un Sud à long terme, malgré la sécurité supposée offerte par les États « providence » ou de « bien-être » desquels ils proviennent. Dans la littérature universitaire, ces derniers sont souvent identifiés comme des agents reproducteurs des systèmes postcoloniaux ou comme des migrants privilégiés. Dans un contexte où la Commission Européenne s’est donné le mandat, depuis maintenant une quinzaine d’années, de favoriser autant la mobilité internationale que l’entrepreneuriat chez les jeunes, qu’en est-il des jeunes Européens qui s’engagent dans le développement d’un projet entrepreneurial dans un Sud, alors qu’ils sont encore au début de leur carrière professionnelle? Cette recherche vise à décrire l’expérience migratoire et d’entrepreneuriat de jeunes adultes et adultes middle-aged Européens dans la ville de Mexico en particulier. Nous avons effectué une enquête ethnographique d’une durée d’un an et demi situé dans la ville de Mexico qui tient compte des temporalités inhérentes aux processus migratoires et entrepreneuriaux. Les données sont tirées des récits biographiques des participants, de différentes activités d’observation en lien avec leur vie entrepreneuriale et leur condition de migrants « du premier monde », ainsi qu’une expérience de quotidienneté partagée. À travers une lorgnette principalement interactionniste, la thèse présente les caractéristiques des trajectoires de ces entrepreneurs, les quêtes qui sont à la source de la constitution de leur projet entrepreneurial et la place qu’ils occupent socialement dans le contexte de la métropole de Mexico. Nous retenons que les migrations Nord-Sud peuvent aussi impliquées un processus d’incorporation marqué par des ruptures, des difficultés ou de nécessaires négociations identitaires, tout comme les migrations traditionnellement étudiées. Cela dit, leur expérience contient aussi son lot d’aspects connectés aux conceptions divisant les « Nords des Suds » qui sont enracinés dans le contexte local particulier, la ville de Mexico, et qui se révèlent dans l’interaction sociale en présence des homologues mexicains qu’ils rencontrent. / While in the media, migration is presented as the result of humanitarian crises, expatriation and international mobility are portrayed as the natural results of a globalization that serves the countries of the South as much as the countries of the North. However, a growing number of Europeans choose to settle in the South for the long term, despite the supposed security offered by the « welfare » states. In academic literature, the latter are often identified as reproductive agents of postcolonial systems or as privileged migrants. In a context where the European Commission has given itself the mandate, for about fifteen years now, to promote both international mobility and entrepreneurship among young people, what about young Europeans who engage in the development of an entrepreneurial project in a South, while they are still at the beginning of their professional career? This research aims to describe the migration and entrepreneurship experience of young adult and middle-aged adult Europeans in Mexico City in particular. We carried out an ethnographic fieldwork located in Mexico City for a year and a half, aiming to consider the temporalities inherent to migratory and entrepreneurial processes. The data is drawn from the biographical accounts of the participants, from various observation activities related to their entrepreneurial life and their condition as "first world" migrants, as well as a shared daily experience. Through a mainly interactionist lens, the thesis presents the characteristics of the trajectories of these entrepreneurs, the quests that are at the core of the constitution of their entrepreneurial project and the place they occupy socially in the context of the metropolis of Mexico. We retain that North-South migrations can also involve a process of incorporation marked by ruptures, difficulties or necessary identity negotiations, just like the migrations traditionally studied. That said, their experience also contains aspects connected to the conceptions of a world divided between the "North of the South" which are rooted in the particular local context, Mexico City, and which are revealed in the social interaction in the presence of the Mexican counterparts that they meet.

The opening chapters of the diploma thesis describe European Union strategic plans and measures aiming to create suitable conditions for adult lifelong learning. The goal of this diploma thesis is to give an overview of how secondary schools participate on these strategic plans. The topic of the adult lifelong learning at secondary schools is approached mainly in connection with the Act 179/2006 Coll. describing validation and recognition of further learning results. The diploma thesis than describes in detail subsidies available for schools to support the so called mobilities. In the research part the dissertation attempts to determine correlation between the size or type of a school and its succes rate in retraining programmes or its engagement in mobilities. The selected research sample consists of secondary schools from the Moravian-Silesian region. The selection of the topic was influenced by the objectives defined in the strategic document "ET 2020" (Education and Training 2020). The first defined goal of this document is "to implement lifelong learning and mobility into learning". KEYWORDS: Youth in action Agency, NAEP Agency, ET 2020, school mobilities, national qualification system, Education for Competitiveness Operational Programme, school networks, UNIV project, validation and...

Cette thèse explore les formes d’identification adoptées par des antillais fréquentant les lieux de divertissements caribéens en région parisienne. Cela, dans une perspective d’études des questions de genre et diasporiques. Mon hypothèse est que la vie nocturne est un espace culturel encourageant les liens transnationaux et diasporiques. Ma méthodologie a été de fréquenter ces lieux selon les méthodes de l’observation participante et de l’entretien en région parisienne ainsi qu’en Martinique. D’abord, j’ai investigué la géographie humaine des lieux de divertissements antillais en banlieue parisienne en enquêtant sur les lieux d’habitation ainsi que sur l’origine sociale de mes informateurs. Par la suite, j’ai lié les pratiques de la vie nocturne aux phénomènes migratoires des antillais de France. Le fort caractère transnational de ces lieux de divertissement témoigne de constructions diasporiques qui n’ont pas été évoquées auparavant. Néanmoins, ma thèse souligne que ces constructions étaient problématiques pour mes informatrices qui devaient négocier leur sorties avec plusieurs contraintes. La deuxième partie de la thèse se concentre sur le caractère transnational et diasporique du zouk, un genre musical de la Caraïbe française. Je conclue en étudiant les inégalités de genre dans les discothèques et les stratégies que les femmes emploient pour participer aux soirées dancehall. / This thesis explores the forms of identification adopted by French Caribbean clubbers in the Parisian region in relation to the issues of gender and diaspora. My hypothesis is that clubbing is a cultural space that fosters diasporic identities and transnational socialities. Methodologically the thesis is the result of fourteen months of participant observation in Paris and one in Martinique. First I have investigated the human geographies of Antillean clubs in the banlieues of Paris by analyzing in detail the residential patterns and sense of class belonging of my informants. Next I have inscribed the night-time leisure practices in the migration patterns of these informants. I argue that the transnational character of Caribbean nightlife is a testimony to relevant diasporic constructions that have not previously been explored. However my thesis underlines how these constructions were not unproblematic for female participants. The second part of the thesis focuses on the specific transnational and diasporic character of zouk, a French Caribbean music genre. I conclude having investigated issues of gender inequality in clubs and the strategies women employ in order to participate in the dancehall scene.
