Description
Méditerranée - Année 2001 - Volume 97 - Numéro 3 - Pages 5-10C'est à une véritable révolution que l'on assiste dans les campagnes méditerranéennes au cours des quarante dernières années. Au départ, un monde qui reflète encore, à bien des égards, celui des siècles passés, tant dans les Sud péninsulaires que dans un Maghreb à peine au début de sa décolonisation, ou même dans les plaines littorales et les arrière-pays des zones septentrionales. C'est le passage de cet espace du passé à celui du monde contemporain que l'on présente ici, en une analyse diachronique et thématique des diverses études publiées dans «Méditerranée» : thèmes structurels ; problèmes de l'eau et grands aménagements de l'espace rural ; mutations de la viticulture et de l'oléiculture ; transformation des agricultures de huerta et de leurs économies... De nouveaux rapports naissent entre les villes et leurs campagnes. Des espaces originaux apparaissent, ainsi, de plus en plus organisés par le monde urbain. On insiste sur ces nouvelles manières de vivre et de gérer un espace rural où l'agricole n'est plus l'essentiel : territoires patrimoniaux des campagnes-environnement et cadres de vie, analysés en termes souvent archéo-paysagers ; espaces et sociétés du tourisme et des loisirs ruraux, et toute une géographie rurale du feu des risques naturels, qui se développent selon des mécanismes de plus en plus contrôlés par les structures de l'Europe, des États et des grandes Régions.
Over the past 40 years, Mediterranean countrysides have undergone a real revolution. At the outset it was a world which still reflected the past, especially in the south-reaching peninsulas, a Mahgreb scarcely at the beginning of its decolonization, and even in the coastal plains and back country of some northerly areas. The eclipse of this traditionalist space to one that resembles the contemporary world is diachronically and thematically analyzed through the diverse studies published in «Méditerranée». These include structural themes ; problems of water and major rural development schemes ; changes in grape and olive production ; transformation of huerta agriculture and its economic foundations. New relationships have emerged between cities and their countrysides. Thus, new original spaces appear that are increasingly organized by the urban world. New lifestyles and management of rural space become imbedded in which agriculture is no longer central. Heritage zones incorporate countrysides and living environments and are often analyzed in archaeological and landscape terms ; spaces and societies become focused on tourism and rural leisure-time activities ; and there is an emerging rural geography of fire and natural hazards. All of these developments are controlled by the combined structures of a United Europe, individual states, and great regions.
