dc.description.abstractenglishJ. F. It means many things, it’s a very broad idea. We can think about the city scale in different ways; it’s not only about size. When we discussed the topic with our partners, many had their own interpretations. We discussed scales of organisation, scales of governance, scales created by digital technology. In spatial terms, it’s about the places where people live, such as their streets and their neighbourhoods. And for example in organisational terms, it’s about how these streets and neighbourhoods connect to each other. In any case, the important thing is that people feel discon-nected from the various scales of the city and this is what we want to change. We want to reinvent the city with people. C. B. Why do you believe cities need to be reinvented? J. F. In many respects, things have got worse in cities in recent times. This is something we see very clearly in Saint-Étienne, but it’s true for other cities as well. For example, city centres are no longer the lively places they used to be. Many shops are empty because people go to supermarkets in the suburbs or shop online. In fact, we tried to address this issue in one of our experiments in Saint-Étienne called “Ici Bientôt”, which you can read about in this book. At the same time, young families in particular are leaving the city centre and moving to the suburbs. This affects urban demographics and also causes problems like congestion. So the city has become unbalanced and this is what we need to address.spa
