Dynamiques urbaines et mutations des espaces agricoles en Languedoc-Roussillon (France)

Languedoc-Roussillon is a region of France where rural and urban areas have historical links based on wine economy. In recent years, this Mediterranean region has seen major urban transformations, affecting land use in a rapid manner, mostly in terms of farming land. These changes are characterized...
