Micro-transitions et écoquartiers : la recomposition des pratiques énergétiques face aux déterminismes matériels et socio-économiques

In this article, we discuss the energy transition at the level of local social groups (individuals, households). Our hypothesis is that behavior change also operates by a set of micro-transitions that are played in individuals both consumers, residents, local users, members of defined social groups....
