Abstract

[fre] Dans la description et la mesure des transformations de l'espace rural français, plusieurs modèles d'analyse ont été successivement utilisés. Après les avoir rappelés, l'article rend compte en partie d'une recherche collective qui visait à tester la pertinence du modèle d'analyse le plus actuel en termes de diversification/spécialisation. L'identification des lieux que l'on peut qualifier de diversifiés ou spécialisés a été menée par des approches sectorielles de l'espace rural (l'agriculture, les activités économiques, la société) ; puis on a tenté de confronter les différents résultats de façon à vérifier s'il est possible d'avancer des catégories socio-spatiales en ces termes. L'article conclut par un appel à la prudence dans l'utilisation de ce système d'analyse pour des raisons de vocabulaire, de techniques de mesure et de niveau d'analyse, mais souligne l'importance des tendances contradictoires qui font de l'espace rural français un espace en définitive plus diversifié que spécialisé. [eng] Various models were successively developed to describe and measure the rural space transformations in France. This paper relates part of the results of a collective research aiming at testing the «last born » model which is the process of specialisation/diversification of this rural space. Coefficients of specialisation and diversification were first applied to three sectors in their spatial dimension : agriculture, rural employment, rural society. These results were then collated in order to identify specialised and diversified rural spaces. The process of diversification has a larger extent than the process of specialisation in the economic and social landscape of rural France. But interpreting this result, one must pay attention to the ambiguities of the vocabulary and to the difficulties for describing this process with quantitative precision and at different levels.
