Une ville à la campagne. Sociabilité et urbanité dans la cité-jardin du Stockfeld

Abstract

In 1910, the building of the garden-city of Stockfeld, eight kilometers from Strasbourg, begins. This garden-city is meant to provide housing for a poor working-class population, driven away from the city-center by important street works. How will this urban population with a shaky socio-economical balance adapt to a new way of life imposed upon them by German theoreticians of urbanism, the inheritors of Ebenezer Howard ?
