This research analyses the emergence of the dynamics of co-creation of public policies within complex institutional contexts, by mobilizing the concepts of co-creation, leadership and managerial innovation, as well as undertaking a longitudinal study integrating 35 interviews. In the setting of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage routes, our results show that: (1) the co-creation of public policies is a long-term process linked to changes in the leadership of the stakeholders; (2) this is made possible by the emergence of associative border actors, the agents of managerial innovation. We include an evaluation grid of public co-creation as well as a classification of managerial innovations.

AbstractIn Belgium as elsewhere in Europe, the 1990's will have symbolized refocusing on the insecurity debate, in particular in the field of drug addiction: a concern that was, among others, expressed by the political will to create an alliance between practitioners defending "social" projects and those who support security or policing programs. In this respect, this article presents, on the one hand, the point of view of these different persons, and on the other hand, demonstrates how the imposition of alliance dynamics drove them to adopt positions of withdrawal or dubious collaboration. Our research then questions the respective places of penal and social approaches to this problem, and proposes a critical perspective of the evolution of a recourse to the repressive solution in general.

Few political commentators in Quebec have done work on political networks. Only in the course of the seventies has the term «network» begun to be used to designate those forms of organization that allow all the players to be interconnected, whether directly or indirectly. The notion of the network has become more widespread in political science since the eighties with the study of policy networks. Even if it remains a minority in political analysis, the study of networks belongs to a broad cultural trend which will doubtless continue to develop in the future.

ABSTRACTThe complexity of the local political system in France is seen in the diversity of institutional actors and of the actors associated with them, and in the fragmentation of policies and geographical territories. These changes, linked to the strongly economic orientation of the 1980s, elected officials' utilitarian managerial approaches and the strengthening of political representation, are helping to undermine the traditional political system. Public policies that rely on elites, pressure groups and corporate interests are tending to undervalue the role of institutions and to discourage new thinking on politics. Faced with the crisis in the republican state, growing individualism and increasingly diverse ties of belonging, the public sphere is responding to the need for new forms of mediation and a redefinition of elitist views by integrating conflicts and collective action. This is necessitating a reflection on possible approaches to government in a political system that has been shattered.

Given the increasing popularity of electronic resources and that microcomputers are becoming the means of choice to access these new resources, certain individuals are questioning the need, in the 21st century, of new buildings for public libraries. In this digital age, could knowledge be stored in an electronic format stored in virtual reality? As the information and computer specialists well know, this utopian project is far from reality. The ephemeral nature of new media, the fragility of digital collections, potentially at risk for «electronic accidents» (Manguel 2000, 43) the high cost of development and purchase of computer equipment capable of storing huge quantities of information make it impossible to create a virtual library that will replace the existing ones. From a technical point of view, we need to build new buildings in order to make mankind's knowledge available. However, the usefulness of a public library goes beyond a merely practical dimension because these institutions have become vitallity important to their constituents and have acquired a symbolic value, a social significance and an organisational dimension.

The social issues of recent years in France led to new answers, characterized by a better recognition of the territory, in terms of social policies. We are concomitantly experiencing disruptions in the professional practices, mainly with regard to the new frames of reference which underline the territorial and collective logics. The introduction of these new requirements raises the question of the impact on the “professionality” of social workers. In this context, do the expectations or requirements of the organizations have a real impact on the practices used by the social work professionals?
