La démarche environnementaliste se cantonnait quant à elle dans une approche défensive et naturaliste. Les citoyens s'en saisissaient parfois comme outil de défense de leur cadre de vie. Aujourd'hui, les démarches de l'aménagement du territoire et de la gestion de l'environnement ont tendance à s'intégrer, dans un contexte de développement durable. Ceci impose une démarche transversale, inscrite dans les territoires. Une attention accrue est portée, du moins dans le discours, aux acteurs, à leur participation, au développement endogène, au respect du principe de précaution. Il faut toutefois se garder de considérer ces évolutions et le développement de visions plus stratégiques de l'aménagement du territoire comme la seule expression d'un renforcement de la démocratie participative. Elles peuvent tout autant résulter de formes de désengagement de l'État, d'exacerbation des concurrences entre villes et régions dans un contexte néo-libéral, d'une réduction des solidarités inter-régionales. Les attitudes des pouvoirs publics, jusqu'au niveau européen, sont parfois contradictoires, partagées entre un intérêt accru porté aux considérations environnementales et des logiques dominantes de marché et de concurrence. On comprendra que tenter d'aborder un champ aussi large impliquait une réflexion collective. Le présent ouvrage ébauche cette mise en œuvre en la matière au sein et autour de l'Institut de gestion de l'environnement et d'aménagement du territoire (IGEAT) de l'Université libre de Bruxelles.Architecture, aménagement du territoire, environnementRegional planning--Environmental aspectsEnvironmental sciencesRegional planningRegional planning--Environmental aspects.Environmental sciences.Regional planning.333.715Vandermotten Christian470392NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910342946203321Le développement durable des territoires2019175UNINA04550nam 22006615 450 991086916770332120240626125355.09783031587436(electronic bk.)978303158742910.1007/978-3-031-58743-6(MiAaPQ)EBC31504010(Au-PeEL)EBL31504010(CKB)32569141400041(DE-He213)978-3-031-58743-6(EXLCZ)993256914140004120240626d2024 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe British Police and Home Food Production in the Great War Police as Ploughmen, 1917–1918 /by Mary Fraser1st ed. 2024.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2024.1 online resource (228 pages)Print version: Fraser, Mary The British Police and Home Food Production in the Great War Cham : Palgrave Macmillan,c2024 9783031587429 Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: The Developing Food Crisis in World War One -- Chapter 3: Help for Farmers; No Stone Left Unturned -- Chapter 4: Horse and Mechanical Help for Farmers -- Chapter 5: The Importance of Increased Crop Production to Feed the Nation -- Chapter 6: Policemen in England Helped Farmers from March 1917 to the End of the War -- Chapter 7: Policemen in Scotland Helped Farmers from March 1917 to the End of the War -- Chapter 8: Release of Policemen in Birmingham and Glasgow: Two Case Studies -- Chapter 9: The Outcome for Britain of the Food Shortages of 1917.This book explores the role of the British Police in home food production during the First World War, a critical time when decreasing food imports threatened population starvation around the country. Drawing from the police’s most popular weekly journal, the book provides insights into policemen’s lives, the political context in which they worked, and the pressures on police forces throughout Britain during the Great War. Unlike neighbouring countries in Europe, Britain avoided major food riots due to government control of farming from December 1916, which prioritised agriculture to feed the nation. The police force released over 400 policemen in England and Scotland to serve as ploughmen from March 1917 for around two months. Almost a third of policemen throughout Britain had previous agricultural backgrounds and so were welcomed by farmers as experienced workers. This book illustrates not only why the food crisis arose and the state of British farming during the war, but it also sheds light on how individual police forces were approached and encouraged to release their policemen, at a time when police forces themselves were critically short of staff due to recruitment into the war. The author discusses how the release of policemen into agriculture as first responders benefitted the police and provided surveillance over home food production in the national interest.
