France's inter-municipal institutions began to be created at the end of the 1950s. Their announced objective was to reinforce public activity at the level of urban agglomerations and to reduce territorial inequalities. Both the up-loading of a set of responsibilities previously held by municipal governments and the nomination of their members by municipal councils make them a sub-national federated institution. This article documents how the institutionalisation of a partisan “grand coalition” at the top of this structure became the main obstacle to policies for redistribution rather than for inter-municipal cooperation, as the supporters of such coalitions had argued would happen.

This article analyzes three “ages” of educational policies in Quebec as regards equality of opportunity. Age 1 : democratization of school and of society through schooling ; Age 2 : decentralization, competition, accountability : towards a normalization of pathways to success for as many students as possible ; Age 3 : equity, diversity, inclusion and singularity. Inspired by a cognitive approach to public action, this article presents the educational policies specific to each of these “ages” by showing their relationships to macrosocial logics or global referents that governed sectoral educational policies, as well as the configurations of social and educational actors that implemented these policies. Working towards a sociohistorical synthesis, this article advances the idea that state-centric path dependency ensures continuity from one age to the next and that institutional pluralism—a characteristic of Quebec's educational field—carries with it elements of rupture that subvert the dominant referential and induce the movement from one age to the next.

The significant impact of the digital environment on the construction and dissemination of knowledge and know-how must be taken into account. The purpose of the digital mediation of knowledge is to facilitate the connection of information to users, with the help of operational devices within a process that reflects the challenges of public policies in the digital era.

Since the 2000s, the organisations in the home-care sector, which have traditionally been nonprofit, have had to adapt to changes in public policy. The introduction of competition and changes in funding systems have subjected the sector to market forces and profoundly altered the situation for home-care providers. The evolution of policy representations is the focus of this article. The policy vision of home-care and its evaluation, as it appears in the reports preceding the laws and government measures that increased competition in the sector, impacts the practices of actors in the sector, especially the nonprofit organisations.

This article questions the process of drawing up a policy tool in the area of local health policies in the light of the notion of transcoding (Lascoumes, 1994). To this end, we take the example of the Local Health Plan (PLS) of the city of Rennes. We thus show that the PLS is both the result of recycling actions and measures implemented in the framework of other local policies (education, transport, housing, etc.), while also assembling activities to ensure the consistency of all elements from different sectoral policies. Since the drawing up the PLS comes inherently with a logic of professional legitimation of local health actors, this process is also a source of specific constraints and tensions with other local services.
