【 摘 要 】

We examine the ways through which the urban renewal projects in the region of La Plaine Saint-Denis, a northern suburb of the metropolitan region of Paris, relate to the current global political and economic strategies of intervention in urban space and can enhance socio-spatial segregation in a place-based approach. The strategies base projects with very similar logics in other world cities and legitimize themselves through rhetoric as mixité sociale, which, in turn, try to hide the consequent processes of gentrification. Based on academic studies, fieldworks and observation of neighbourhood associations meetings and other events organized by government, we clarify the specific aspects of the development and implementation of urban renewal projects in La Plaine Saint-Denis, demonstrating that major intervention projects in space are far from mitigating socio-spatial inequalities.
