Abstract

Cet article étudie comment un développement régional cohérent nécessite la mobilisation de ressources cognitives partagées. Dans le cas étudié – la région Nord Pas-de-Calais, cette proximité cognitive se construit via les politiques locales, sur la base du référentiel de développement durable. Pour saisir la manière dont les collectivités de la région activent cette ressource, nous avons mobilisé les outils d’analyse textuelle sur une trentaine d’entretiens auprès des acteurs publics du développement durable. Les résultats mis en évidence suggèrent que cette proximité cognitive repose sur deux éléments fondamentaux : d’une part la mise en valeur d’un patrimoine infrastructurel territorialisé, et d’autre part la reconstruction d’une identité territoriale. Les politiques locales prennent ainsi appui sur les valeurs qui sous-tendent ces éléments ainsi que sur des modalités rhétoriques, pour impulser en profondeur une dynamique de changement, plus malaisée à mettre en œuvre à partir des outils politiques habituels.
