CAIRN-INT.INFO : International Edition
English

Drawing on interviews and videos conducted as part of the participative research Pop-Part, this article explores the way young people from 10 working-class neighbourhoods in and around Paris experience the urban transformations that affect the spaces they live in. Firstly, it shows that these changes are both appreciated and criticized. Secondly it reveals that the nostalgia for what has disappeared, which is connected to a nostalgia for childhood, is characteristic of the discourse, without being exempt from a critical tone. Finally, population changes associated with some of these urban changes and the confrontations and questions that result from this contribute to the construction of collective identities that nevertheless remain fragile.
