The poor performance of the political system in Romania, still marked by disaffection and pervasive corruption, may be shaped by the lack of control from the citizens. Much more responsible towards its electoral basis, the Romanian political system would be more legitimate. The political performance and legitimacy would in turn make citizens more satisfied and eager to defend democratic values. The happy circle of civic control, responsivness, satisfaction and political performance may be started somehow. The research paper is an attempt to evaluate political culture in urban Romania as a source of political legitimacy and performance. We focus on the civic culture, this special association of knowledge and feelings about the political system that settle citizens to political communication, partisanship, social cooperation, political competence and, in the end, political action. By analysing survey data, we outline a meager civic culture in Romania, but also the hope for a future civic competence.

L'auteur présente l'état des recherches sur le gouvernement local en Grande-Bretagne. Le pouvoir local a connu dans ce pays des changements majeurs avec l'arrivée des conservateurs en 1979. Le débat s'est d'abord centré sur l'étude des forces de changements, pour aboutir aujourd'hui à une analyse de la nature du système émergent. Ceci pose des problèmes théoriques, incite à étudier les réseaux politiques, le rôle du marché et soulève des questions sur le rôle nouveau de l'Etat et des citoyens.

The order and disorder. This simple phrase sums up the evolution of the Urban Planning Law. Once ambitious, sometimes abstruse but still clear on its objectives, effective, this right has become talkative, messy, and incoherent. The purpose of our research was to understand this relaxation which does not seem to end. To do that, we had to identify the main theme of the discipline : the fight against urban segregation. The L.O.V., as well as the S.R.U. and A.L.U.R. laws confirmed it. The study to fight urban segregation with the urban planning law requires to be addressed under different approaches. The first is very chronological, and refers us to the legal beginning of the material, at the time of the creation of the urban order, which never ceased to grow and develop. It later took us to the criticism of this order, then to its slow dismantling, destruction, and its replacement. It led us finally to the point where masks fell, illusions were dispelled and urban distress appeared ; the moment where public authorities seemed to give credit to what Henri Bergson once said : "Mess is simply the order we do not search for". This admission of failure was the starting point of our second approach. This obscure right continues to live against winds and waves. The study of treatments of urban segregation illuminates a reality, Governments have focused their attention on cities, and have left out the "peripheral France". This explains both why this right has maintained so far and is condemned at the same time. ; L'ordre et le désordre. Cette simple phrase résume à elle seule l'évolution du droit de l'urbanisme. Naguère ambitieux, quelques fois abscons mais toujours clair sur ses objectifs, efficace, ce droit est devenu bavard, brouillon, incohérent. L'objet de notre recherche a été donc de comprendre cet avachissement qui n'en finit plus, pour cela il nous fallait identifier le thème moteur de la discipline : la lutte contre la ségrégation urbaine. La L.O.V., ainsi que les lois S.R.U. et A.L.U.R. le confirmaient. ...
