Sumario:This article contributes to the discussion about environmental capital through the lens of “local” user position in protected areas. More precisely, it focuses on French national parks, emblematic of the conception of nature conservation in France. Indigenous uses and “local” environmental knowledge were denied in the first national parks in former colonies and metropolitan France. But they are currently reintroduced in the context of the parks reform (2006) and the international background of participatory imperative, indigenous recognition and ecologization of the thought (Mormont, 2009 ; 2013). Is this movement like a recognition of an environmental capital for “local” users ? This hypothesis may be discussed. Under which conditions are these knowledge and uses recognized by the ecological vision, which is usually dominant in French national parks ? Who does participate in and benefit from this recognition ? Focusing on the cases of the young national park of Creeks (2012) and of Reunion Island (2007), we outline the components of environmental capital granted to “local” users in French national parks, by analyzing the combined effects of indigenousness capital recognition and ecological imperative. To what extent does this process broaden the definition of the “publics” of protected areas users and who does remain excluded ?
