International audience ; For several decades, the public service for managing solid household and similar wastes has seemingly sported a clear-cut public health objective of offering an identical service across a given territory. Yet, empirical research conducted over recent years in global South countries shows that the perimeter of this public service is changing with respect to global environmental issues, multiple governance and social implications, as well as increasingly challenging technical and economic issues. These developments never equate to a firmly stated political project but are often veiled behind new recycling needs, a lack of public financing or the intervention of private players, informal actors or citizens. Yet, this implicit redefinition of the boundaries of what is seen as a "public service" has been reshuffling the cards the political game of waste. The idea of the public actors' role is shifting, whether the goal be to include informal wastepickers, reduce poverty or preserve resources. Although other forms of this phenomenon are visible in global North cities, this paper focuses specifically on cities in the global South. 1 The six case studies (Lima, Bogotá, Lomé, Antananarivo, Delhi and Surabaya) offer a shifting picture of the boundaries of this public service. Sometimes, the perimeter of the service is reduced at the margins when recyclable and compostable wastes are removed ahead of municipal collection. In other cases, the service may be reduced upstream when a (more or less formal) primary collection scheme is set up. Some of the tasks are assigned to third-party actors, rather than simply privatising the service. Indeed, this does not call on either a market-economy rationale or an institutional logic. The notion of commons can then by introduced to analyse an increasingly composite form of solid waste management.

International audience ; As the second section of a policy study on housing policies in middle-income countries, this research paper explores alternatives to full and individual homeownership programmes. . These options for public policy cover a range of solutions from the implementation of more inclusive home ownership schemes (partial and supervised self-building practices, cooperatives, community land trusts, etc.) to the revitalization of private rental markets and the promotion of social rental housing schemes. Discussing the goals and tools of public housing policy takes also part of contemporary theoretical and technical debates about the transfer and hybridization of policy models. ; Seconde partie d'une étude en deux volets sur les politiques de l'habitat dans les pays à revenu intermédiaire, ce papier de recherche explore les alternatives aux programmes d'accession à la propriété pleine et individuelle (via un crédit immobilier). Dans le champ d'action des politiques publiques, ces alternatives peuvent aller de la mise en œuvre des formes d'accès à la propriété plus inclusives (autoconstruction partielle et encadrée, coopératives, foncier solidaire, etc.) à la relance des marchés locatifs privés et au développement du logement locatif social. La mise en discussion des objectifs et outils des politiques de l'habitat se situe au cœur des débats théoriques et opérationnels contemporains sur la circulation et l'hybridation des modèles et des instruments d'action publique.
