[hal-04271386] Discrimination against people with mental, physical or visual disabilities in the French rental housing market: field experiment
We implement correspondence testing to detect and assess the extent of discrimination against people with disabilities in the French rental housing market. By sending 1,750 emails in a matched-pair procedure, we provide evidence of significant and extensive discrimination against blind people with a guide dog, individuals with mental disabilities, and individuals with motor impairments in the process of rented housing allocation. However, the primary cause of discrimination against blind individuals appears to stem from the presence of the guide dog, rather than the disability itself. Our results are also consistent with the presence of statistical discrimination (particularly based on financial means). We find that absolute discrimination against disabled applicants increases in accordance with the level of rent, while real estate agents discriminate significantly less against disabled applicants than private landlords.

[hal-05110567] Why do we keep killing crows? Farmers’ attachment to a controversial method in an attempt to protect their crops
Corvids are responsible for important damage to spring crops across western Switzerland and have become a significant concern for the farming community. Various prevention methods have been tested to reduce agricultural losses, but no suitable solution has been found. In an attempt to solve this problem, the Swiss farming community is asking the authorities, despite its relative unpopularity, to liberalize control shooting. However, the effectiveness of this control method has never been scientifically proven, and the few studies in ecology or conservation biology that question its efficiency are not considered by the farming community. This raises the question of why the attachment to an uncertain and controversial method is so strong. By bringing out the farming community's dominant representation of the problem of corvid damage and analyzing the stakeholder network dynamics, this article aims to highlight the social logics and multifactorial dimension of choosing a control method. We found that the fight against corvid damage is part of a more general conflict that pits the farming community against the rest of society on issues of ecology and production. Various social, cultural and cognitive logics lead the farming community to remain attached to control shooting, making a cognitive gamble that has no solid scientific basis. To succeed in getting farmers to abandon control shooting, three conditions must be met: the emergence of a replacement innovation, awareness of the negative practical, economic and ethical aspects of control shooting, and improved access to scientific knowledge on the subject in the farming world.

[hal-05232549] Assessing the eco-efficiency of inter-municipal waste management services in France
We assess the eco-efficiency of French inter-municipal cooperation entities in charge of waste management. We employ a conditional order-m approach to (i) estimate their eco-efficiency considering variables characterizing their environmental context, (ii) evaluate the effect of these contextual variables on the eco-efficiency. Our results demonstrate that the population size, the type of area (e.g., tourist, rural), and the waste pricing systems significantly influence eco-efficiency. These findings underscore the importance of tailoring local waste management policies to the specific characteristics and available resources of each area. They provide valuable insights for local authorities seeking to enhance eco-efficiency and optimize waste management practices. © 2025 The Authors

[hal-05280007] Les agriculteurs et agricultrices dans le changement climatique : faire face à un « mal commun »
L’agriculture est pointée du doigt comme contribuant de façon importante au changement climatique. Les manières dont les agriculteurs vivent la crise climatique et y font face sont en revanche assez peu documentées et les détresses professionnelles et humaines sont occultées par la double injonction à l’adaptation et à l’atténuation portée par les politiques publiques sur le climat. La journée d’étude « Agriculture et changement climatique : refaire monde dans les territoires face à un “mal commun” ? », qui a eu lieu à Dijon en juin 2024, visait à explorer les conséquences de la crise climatique, que nous proposons de considérer, du fait de son ampleur, comme un « mal commun ». L’expression nous permet de nommer les réalités climatiques qui affectent les agriculteurs et altèrent leurs existences. Que fait ce « mal commun » aux agriculteurs et agricultrices, à leurs activités, aux non-humains et à leurs territoires ? Est-il alors possible de « refaire monde dans les territoires » ?

[hal-05261976] Les espaces populaires. Déconstruire l'opposition entre les campagnes et les citées
L’idée d’une opposition entre classes populaires urbaines et rurales est largement répandue dans le débat public et sert de point de départ à certaines stratégies politiques visant à privilégier l’une ou l’autre - ou à déplorer l’abandon de l’une au profit de l’autre. Pourtant, cette idée ne repose sur aucun fondement sociologique solide. Ce chapitre entend dépasser ce lieu commun et éclairer les caractéristiques que partagent les classes populaires urbaines et rurales, mettant en lumière leur condition commune.

[hal-05232442] Analysing the diversity of farmers' pesticide use through professional dialogue network analysis
Understanding the mechanisms underlying farmers’ trajectories of change is essential to produce knowledge that informs agricultural extension and advisory services, as well as for adapting policies that facilitate agroecological transitions. In this study, we aimed to understand the influence of information flows between farmers on farmer’s pesticide use trajectories, based on an analysis of professional dialogue networks. We conducted a case study analysis of three groups of farmers within the DEPHY program in France, using Social Network Analysis methods and theories (Compagnone & Hellec, 2015). We first characterized farmers’ pesticide use trajectories through the time-course of the Treatment Frequency Indicator (TFI). Based on interviews with farmers, we identified farmers’ relationships with other farmers, and produced a social network diagram for each case study. Than we characterized farmer’s crop protection practices within the network and the information they exchange, using the concept of “shared repertoires of resources” for action (Wenger, 2011). Finally, we built socio-historical narratives to highlight the transformation processes of the networks over time (Bidart & Degenne, 2005). We show that most farmers maintain relationships with peers and peer groups (both formal and informal), included outside their own DEPHY group. They thus exchange information (knowledge, norms, diagnostic tools and references) that frame their ways of thinking about and implementing crop protection. Some groups build and mobilize mainly pesticide-centered repertoires, while other develop new tools and new norms better suited to low-pesticide agriculture. We highlight that in some cases, the DEPHY public policy-induced farmers groups, aiming to put pesticide reduction into practice, fails to become dialogue spaces where repertoires and practices evolve towards this target. We identified key factors determining the group ability to transform local norms and renew repertoires of resources available for farmers’ action: strong social dynamics existing before the DEPHY group formation, advisor management of the interactions between peers, and the advisor’s long-term stability. These results challenge the idealized vision of peer groups and invite us to broaden our understanding of collective dynamics by focusing on the professional dialogue networks that farmers themselves shape to find support and carry out their practices. We argue that network analysis methods could serve as a useful tool for advisors to map out the dialogue spaces in which they engage with farmers. From an academic perspective, this study underscores the value of integrating two systemic disciplinary fields: farming system research and social network analysis.

[hal-05191851] Decoding France’s food environment combining data bases to characterize the food environment in France
The dataset presented here draws on several French institutional database sources. The aim is to develop a nationwide database of food outlet locations that can be automatically enriched and updated with a high level of reliability. To this end, we created a flexible and dynamic Python script that can be widely utilized by a maximum of users. Data can be updated either on a daily basis to create a series of files within a limited timeframe, or on a monthly basis to reflect updates to the SIRENE 3.11 database of the national statistical institute INSEE. Starting from SIRENE 3.11, we enriched the data using the Alim’ Confiance (Ministry of Agriculture) and the Les Professionnels Engagés en Bio (organic farmers) databases. We were also able to enhance the accuracy of food environment description by identifying food outlets currently closed, exploiting the BODACC (official trade bulletin) database with its almost daily updating. These data provide valuable support for studies on the food environment at both macro and micro levels. The database’s wide range of scales makes it possible to map food sales and distribution outlets, a prerequisite to any investigation of food environments in a given territory.

[hal-05183738] Elevage : un travail passion débordé par le changement climatique
Souvent inscrit dans une trajectoire familiale, le métier d’éleveur de bovins est choisi par passion (Jacques-Jouvenot, 2014). Il est majoritairement exercé par des « chefs d’exploitation », apparentant l’activité aux travailleurs indépendants et associé à une grande autonomie. Or le travail y est mis à l’épreuve d’un jeu de contraintes multiples : politique agricole commune, règles d’installation, volatilité des marchés, critique sociétale. Par ailleurs, soumise aux astreintes quotidiennes (alimentation, traite) ou périodiques (période des mises bas, cultures et récoltes), la durée de travail hebdomadaire atteint en moyenne de 61 heures/ semaine (Midler et al., 2019). A ces contraintes fortes, s’en ajoute une autre, première, qui caractérise la plupart des métiers agricoles : les conditions météorologiques et climatiques pèsent très fortement sur le bon déroulement des activités comme sur le niveau de production de l’exploitation. Cette communication s’emploiera à monter la façon dont le changement climatique, notamment dans ses événements extrêmes (pluies ou sécheresses prolongées), affecte le travail au quotidien et le sens du métier d’éleveur. Elle repose sur 40 entretiens semi-directifs menés auprès d’éleveurs français spécialisés bovins-lait et bovins-viande en Bourgogne Franche Comté. Ainsi, le changement climatique repousse davantage les limites du travail d’élevage : l’amour du travail suffit-il ? Il interroge les éleveurs sur le sens de leur métier à la fois en termes de « contexte » et de « perspective directionnelle » (Spoljar, Dupré, Depoudent, 2024). Trouveront-ils les ressources cognitives et matérielles pour s'adapter à des contextes de travail changeants voire éprouvants ? Pourront-ils se projeter dans leur activité alors que les conditions de travail deviennent incertaines ?

[hal-05165151] Les déterminants des distances domicile-travail : cas des aires urbaines françaises métropolitaines
Nous estimons les effets des formes urbaines sur les distances domicile-travail au sein des aires urbaines françaises par une analyse en coupe (1999, 2007 et 2014). La plus grande concentration géographique des emplois par rapport à la population au sein des aires urbaines semble influencer significativement les distances domicile-travail. Cependant, nos estimations suggèrent des effets relativement faibles. Les distances moyennes entre lieu de résidence et lieu d’emploi diminueraient de 10 % si la répartition spatiale des emplois était identique à celle de la population au sein des aires urbaines. Nos résultats montrent que les distances domicile-travail dépendent de nombreux paramètres autres que la répartition spatiale des emplois au sein des aires urbaines (densité, démographie et transports en communs).

[hal-05164665] Estimation of spatial panel data models with random effects using Laplace approximation methods
This paper proposes using integrated nested Laplace approximations (INLAs), a full Bayesian approach, for estimating spatial panel data models with random effects. These models encompass Anselin's model, Kapoor's model and the generalised spatial random effects model. We show that a spatial autoregressive process in the error terms is a special case of Gaussian Markov random fields (GMRFs), thereby reducing computational costs. The computational benefit is further enhanced through the use of INLAs to compute the posterior marginals of model parameters. Finite sample properties of the INLA-GMRF approach are assessed through comprehensive Monte Carlo simulations. We also compare its computational efficiency with classic estimation methods. Finally, we demonstrate this approach with an empirical study on renewable energy production in China.

In the wake of the cultural approach to the Industrial Revolution, historians have investigated the intellectual and social origins of the sustained growth of European agriculture in early modern and modern Europe. In particular, they have stressed the significance of ‘useful knowledge’ in underpinning technological progress. Did an ‘Agricultural Enlightenment’ of the eighteenth century metamorphose into an ‘Agricultural Revolution’? What were the effects of the ‘agromania’ that swept through Europe after the Peace of Aachen and reached even Europe’s remote peripheries? Dissemination and emulation issues, along with discussions of competing institutional frameworks facilitating innovation and technological adoption, have become central...

[hal-05241587] Chapter 11 : Conclusion
The invention of the accounting farmer, as described in the chapters collected in this volume, is a twofold concept. On the one hand, it encompasses common traits shared by prescriptive models elaborated by agricultural experts and ideologues in the early modern and modern periods. Writers of agricultural handbooks, teachers, and politicians addressing rural constituencies imagined that the future of agriculture had no place for ignorant peasants and idle landowners. Only those who accurately managed their land would survive and thrive.

[hal-05241551] Chapter 7 : Women that Count: The Missing Link in the Modernization of Agriculture in Nineteenth-Century France
Women have an undeniable role in the prosperity of the farm, albeit one that is difficult to define. It is certainly for this reason that the agents of agricultural progress never entirely ignored women, with at least some writers in all periods taking up the pen to educate ‘the gentler sex’ in their role on the farm. For if women participated actively in the production and reproduction of farm capital, why should they not be instructed, like their husbands, in methods to increase the profitability of their own activities and those of the family as a whole? Why not train...

[hal-05164621] Valuing habitat provision and aesthetic ecosystem services in built environments: landscape visibility and connectivity indicators in a choice experiment study
This paper aims to value habitat provision and aesthetic ecosystem services and to study the compatibility of these seemingly unrelated services in greater depth and more systematically than is often the case. We use landscape visibility metrics and indicators as common inputs for both valuations. To better understand the origin of public preferences for urban landscape and to provide meaningful valuation for landscape planning policy, we integrate visual and ecological indicators in a choice experiment study. Our methodology is applied to the landscape of C & ocirc;te-d'Or in France. Mixed logit models are employed to incorporate random taste heterogeneity. By placing landscape ecology metrics at the heart of the stated preference framework, this article seeks to bridge the gap between landscape ecology and non-market valuation, with an eye to promoting ecological services rendered by urban landscapes while maximising social welfare.

[hal-05164552] The social stratification of homeowners’ housing wealth: Bringing a dynamic approach through the price gap index
The spatio-temporal variation of housing prices is central to unveiling the distribution of housing wealth (HW) across social groups. This paper presents a price decomposition framework to analyze the social differentiation of HW in terms of housing characteristics, location, and transaction date across labor-based occupational categories (OCs) of homeowners. Beyond variegated housing prices and capital gains, we highlight the importance of the concept of Price Gap Index (PGI)—the difference between average buyer and seller prices for each OC—to capture the redistribution of HW induced by housing transactions. Using data over two decades (1998–2017) for the French region Bourgogne-Franche-Comté , we find that static HW differences reflect the usual social hierarchy of the labor market. However, the PGI from a dynamic decomposition shows more regressive results of HW accumulation across OCs than the capital gains computed from the usual housing price index over time. These results confirm that spatial dynamics in the housing markets are an important generator of inequality, acting through the redistribution of HW during housing transactions.

[hal-05213272] Ce que l’(agro)écologisation des projets de recherche produit sur différentes catégories professionnelles et leurs interactions au sein d’INRAE : étude de cas à partir du projet LAPOESIE
À travers une étude de cas, nous proposons d’aborder la transition agroécologique sous l’angle de l’évolution des objets de recherche et de la recomposition des identités professionnelles qu’elle produit au sein de l'Institut national de recherche pour l'agriculture, l'alimentation et l'environnement (INRAE) en France. Nous nous intéressons ainsi à la manière dont le projet affecte les agents de deux unités de recherche « spécialisées », l’une en productions végétales (arboriculture fruitière), l’autre en productions animales (cuniculture). S’inscrivant dans une perspective de sociologie des sciences et des techniques, l’article montre d'une part que les agents engagés dans la voie de l’agroécologie développent des pratiques de recherche « déviantes » au regard de leurs socialisations scientifiques disciplinaires et, d'autre part, qu'ils font face à des obstacles institutionnels liés à l’organisation de l’institut et au cloisonnement structurel entre productions végétales et animales. Le cadre de travail agroécologique et interdisciplinaire du projet génère ainsi un certain nombre de décalages, frictions et recompositions conduisant à des évolutions dans les manières de percevoir et d’exercer la recherche ainsi que les métiers qui y sont associés.

[hal-05164586] Impact of migration status on employment quality: causal empirical evidence for Tunisian migrants
This article examines the causal impact of migration status on employment quality among Tunisian migrants, focusing on those who migrated after the 2011 revolution, a period characterized by both intensified migration flows and a transformation in the profile of migrants, driven by political and economic shifts. Using data from Tunisia's first national survey on international migration, an endogenous treatment effects model addresses the endogeneity between migration status and employment quality, which is measured through a comprehensive composite indicator covering aspects such as social protections, access to health insurance, paid leave, and retirement benefits. The results indicate that irregular migration significantly reduces the quality of employment compared to regular or binational migration. Irregular migrants face greater challenges in securing benefits such as health coverage and retirement plans. However, the impact is heterogeneous and varies notably by host country, with irregular migrants in France, the main destination country of Tunisian migrants, experiencing somewhat better outcomes than those in other countries. The findings highlight the need for policy interventions to improve regularization pathways and migrant employment conditions.

[hal-05053988] Insights into the biotic factors driving the outcome of coalescence events between soil bacterial communities
Coalescence events, which consist in the mixing of previously separated communities, are frequent in nature or as a result of human activities. Despite recently gaining attention as a tool to test ecological theories and engineer microbial communities, little is known about the factors that influence the outcome of such coalescence events. Here, we evaluated the relative importance of three community properties—namely, diversity, composition, and density—in determining coalescence outcome and biotic interactions among members of the coalescing bacterial communities. We found that manipulation of the density and composition of soil bacterial community resulted in the largest shifts in the structure of the resulting coalesced communities, explaining 24.7% and 6.8% of the variance in the β-diversity of the coalesced communities, respectively. Coalescence events impacted up to 35% of the dominant Operational Taxonomic Unit (OTUs) in the native community, with a predominance of negative effects. Our results also revealed that community density had the greatest explanatory power for the variance in the relative abundance of the OTUs negatively affected by coalescence events. In particular, all significantly affected OTUs that belonged to the Bacillales exhibited a decrease in relative abundance in several of the coalesced communities, which was related to the density of some members of the α-Proteobacteria and γ-Proteobacteria in the manipulated community suspensions. Overall, our data suggest that community density and composition were the main properties determining the outcome of coalescence events and that coalescence experiments can offer insights into multi-species interactions in complex environments.
