Retour d’expériences sur une démarche franco-thaïlandaise pour un projet spatial, activateur de ressources locales et producteur d’un commun paysager (lac Nong Han, Thaïlande)... by Camille Mesnard

“…Through the case study of a recent multi-purpose landscape development project in Thailand, this article shows the relationships between different regional development processes, particularly in the management of common pool resources (CPR) described by the economist Elinor Oström (1990), and a singular spatial project approach based on a transverse and participatory approach to the issues in the development of landscapes and built up areas. The design process for the spatial project is intended to serve as a sustainable regional development approach. …”
