The quadruple bottom line: Nonprofit Housing Organizations in the United States: Variations, Vitality, and Values [version française] / Rachel Bratt. In "Mixité : an urban and housing issue? Mixing people, housing and activities as urban challenge of the future", 23ème colloque international de l'European Network for Housing Research (ENHR), organisé par le Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire Solidarités, Sociétés, Territoires (LISST) à l'Université Toulouse II-Le Mirail, 5-8 juillet 2011. Plénière 2: International perspectives on social enterprise and hybridity in housing organisations, 7 juillet 2011.U.S. nonprofit housing organizations strive to meet the Quadruple Bottom Line, which encompasses the challenges presented by the private market, while serving targeted resident groups and neighborhoods, in an environmentally responsible manner. The paper assesses the extent to which a framework developed by Czischke, Gruis and Mullins captures the activities of U.S. nonprofit housing organizations. Further, given the workings of the private housing market, it examines the shared and conflicting values of U.S. nonprofit housing organizations and how the various components of the Quadruple Bottom Line interact with one another. This should contribute to a better understanding of why hybridization is a defining characteristic of the U.S. nonprofit social housing sector and to clearer policy directions.> La communication est traduite en français par Mme Solange Hibbs (directrice du Département Centre de Traduction, d'Interprétation et de Médiation linguistique (CETIM) de l'université Toulouse II-Le Mirail).

Social mix strategies in urban renewal: paradoxical effects ? / Christine Lelévrier [version avec traduction simultanée en français]. In "Mixité : an urban and housing issue? Mixing people, housing and activities as urban challenge of the future", 23ème colloque international de l'European Network for Housing Research (ENHR), organisé par le Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire Solidarités, Sociétés, Territoires (LISST) à l'Université Toulouse II-Le Mirail, 5-8 juillet 2011. Plénière 4 : Approaches, pratices and challenges of mixité in different urban contexts, 7 juillet 2011.Social mix is a powerful category of housing and urban policies in France. The idea that urban and social diversity is a condition for a “balanced” and “peaceful” city life is not new and almost as old as urban planning and social housing. But, the strength of this notion has increased since the middle of the 1990’s. As in other countries, (the French) national government and local authorities consider social mix as a condition for community cohesion and social inclusion, a sort of public answer to poverty and ethnic concentration in cities and more recently, as a principle for sustainable development and territorial equality (Fenton, Turnstall, 2006). As in other countries as well, housing and especially social housing on one hand, area-based policies on the other hand, are the main public tools for implementing social mix strategies. In 2003, an ambitious urban renewal programme, focused on deprived neighbourhoods and based on housing diversification, followed up the debate about perverse effects of social mix strategies applied to poor areas. - Are urban renewal strategies successfull at diversifying housing and population in the neighbourhoods ?- Does social diversification mean more social capital and social interactions in the neighbourhoods ?- What are the benefits from urban renewal for the inhabitants, the “outsiders” and the “managers” of those neighbourhoods ?The findings from research conducted since 2004 highlight two mains processes of change: re-clustering and fragmentation (Lelévrier, 2010). Those urban and social effects could be seen as paradoxical ones, in reference to social mix public attempts, proceeding from a holistic and dualistic spatial representation of the city and the neighbourhood: instead of mixing, urban renewal just displaces poverty and instead of reenforcing cohesion, it enhances boundaries and distance between social groups. But the assessment could be different if the new private small residences are the opportunity for the “neighbourhoods children”, part of them coming from the immigrant families, to upgrade their residential careers and stay in the familiar neighbourhood while being able to keep social distance… Those changes encountered not national but local social housing managers -a way to stabilize “good tenants”, as well as private one- a way to endow their investments.> La communication est traduite en français par Mme Solange Hibbs (directrice du Département Centre de Traduction, d'Interprétation et de Médiation linguistique (CETIM) de l'université Toulouse II-Le Mirail).

Social Mix Policies and Research: Finding the "Right Balance" [version avec traduction simultanée en français] / Sako Musterd. [version doublée en français] In "Mixité : an urban and housing issue? Mixing people, housing and activities as urban challenge of the future", 23ème colloque international de l'European Network for Housing Research (ENHR), organisé par le Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire Solidarités, Sociétés, Territoires (LISST) à l'Université Toulouse II-Le Mirail, 5-8 juillet 2011.Plénière 1: Mixité, diversity: pertinent notions?, 6 juillet 2011.‘Social mixing’ has been embraced by several governments as a remedy for urban social problems, or perhaps as an instrument to address other urban issues as well. It has become a part of strategies to ‘restructure’, ‘revitalize’ and ‘regenerate’ urban areas. However, social mixing initiatives, and the urban poverty discourse to which these initiatives are connected, have also been subject to substantial critiques. Many academics have challenged the assumptions underlying social mixing strategies, as well as the way social mix policies are expected to translate into positive outcomes for residents. There is also criticism focused on not paying attention to the negative sides of social mixing, to broken social networks, spillover effects, and the populations that become excluded from ‘socially mixed neighbourhoods’. Nevertheless, there also is a body of academic literature that is taken very seriously, which shows or advocates that there indeed seem to be positive impacts of social mix strategies. Various recent large-scale neighbourhood effect studies support these viewpoints. These studies argue that living among poor people perpetuates individual poverty, whereas middle-class neighbours provide benefits. These findings thus seem to justify policy efforts to intervene in the social makeup of poor neighbourhoods. This "paper" reflects on these contrasting views, opinions, and findings and tries to find the answer to the question what the ‘right balance’ actually is.>> La traduction simultanée en français est assurée par un interprète de l'Association Internationale des Interprètes de Conférence (AIIC).
