Commuting by car to Brussels
The Brussels metropolitan area is one of the most congested areas in Europe every working day, despite alternatives to mobility by means of a car converging on the capital. The article draws on social practice theories to examine the practice of commuting by car to the Brussels Region. The aim is to describe the origins of the commuting and understand the current situation. The constitution of the practice since the 19th century is outlined, with…
Gender roles and domestic power in energy-saving home improvements
The importance of considering gender aspects in studies on residential energy consumption has been acknowledged. However, an important topic is still ignored in gender and energy transitions research: domestic power for men and women differs depending on the type of couple to which they belong. According to Pierre Bourdieu, the chances of each spouse to exercise legitimate power in domestic affairs depend on their respective economic and symbolic…
Energy Poverty as a Restriction of Multiple Capabilities
Energy poverty is a multidimensional issue and the capability approach is fruitful to show how energy-poor households are restricted in many aspects of well-being. With reference to Nussbaum’s Central Capabilities, and based on qualitative interviews, this contribution aims to illustrate how energy-poor people are limited in five capabilities in their daily life and how these restricted capabilities sometimes reinforce each other in vicious circl…
Energy poverty and social assistance in the Brussels-Capital Region
This ethnographic contribution focuses on energy poverty and aid policies in the Brussels-Capital Region. The data produced between 2014 and 2017 consist of field observations and in-depth interviews with people affected by energy poverty. Our study shows that the practices and negative emotions of these people must be understood in the context of the shortage of modest housing in the Brussels Region and the poor state of the housing stock. This …
Energiearmoede en sociale bijstand in het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest
Deze etnografische bijdrage heeft betrekking op de energiearmoede en het steunbeleid in het Brussels Hoofdstedelijk Gewest. De gegevens werden verkregen tussen 2014 en 2017 en bestaan uit waarnemingen op het terrein en diepte-interviews met mensen in energiearmoede. Ons onderzoek toont aan dat de praktijken en negatieve emoties van deze mensen moeten worden begrepen in de context van het tekort aan bescheiden woningen in het Brussels Gewest en de…
Précarité énergétique et aide sociale en Région de Bruxelles-Capitale
Cette contribution ethnographique porte sur la précarité énergétique et les politiques d’aide dans la Région de Bruxelles-Capitale. Les données produites entre 2014 et 2017 consistent en observations de terrain et entretiens approfondis avec des personnes en précarité énergétique. Notre enquête montre que les pratiques et les émotions négatives de ces personnes doivent se comprendre en les contextualisant par la pénurie de logements modestes en R…
The nexus between extreme weather events, sexual violence, and early marriage
Sociologie de l'énergie
Affaire de société, enjeu politique, objet de controverses, l'énergie est devenue depuis une quinzaine d'années un sujet de recherche de première importance pour les sociologues. Alors que les débats autour de la transition énergétique s'animent, ce livre réunit les analyses scientifiques de chercheurs issus d'horizons institutionnels différents. L'objectif est de mutualiser, en un seul ouvrage et pour la première fois, les connaissances et les a…
Socio-Technical and Cultural Approaches to Energy Consumption
Energy consumption inconspicuously bridges nature and culture. Modern societies and cultures depend on intensive energy use from the extraction of natural resources. In fact, the industrialization process required large amounts of energy, but main sources such as oil and coal, have been gradually depleted and found to be heavily polluting the environment. Despite their environmental impacts, these resources have provided cheap and abundant power …
Family Dynamics and Social Practice Theories
Based on empirical data on “green” practices according to household size, this article questions the role, if any, given to close personal relationships by social practice theories in sustaining or not daily life practices. Data are mainly drawn from an Internet survey conducted in Belgium in 2006 by WWF-Belgium on daily practices, related to food, energy consumption, mobility, and tourism. Results show that smaller households carry out more nume…
Are there domino effects between consumers' ordinary and ‘green’ practices? An analysis of quantitative data from a sensitisation campaign on personal carbon footprint
This paper studies how consumers' reported practices related to food, energy use in housing, daily mobility, and tourism are combined and structured. Social practice theories are the main theoretical framework of this research. Data are drawn from a sensitisation campaign run by the WWF-Belgium and the methods developed to attempt to translate the theoretical focus to practices. Results show that both the low number of ‘green’ practices reported …

Denatalite et marche matrimonial. Le cas de l'Italie en 1930-1950
The decline in the birth rate recorded in Italy between 1916 and 1919 began to affect marriage market as early as the midthirties. This imbalance was resolved through major changes in the relative ages of the spouses, which continue to be apparent in a couple analysis based on individual data drawn from the Census of 1981. The role of mortality and of widowhood - which lead to a selection as of couples surviving to 1981 - in assessed. Their impac…
Les migrations de retraite des Milanais
Cet article examine les migrations de retraite au départ de l'agglomération milanaise en 1981. On utilise les données d'un échantillon de ménages du recensement de 1981 et les données exhaustives de l'anagraphe pour la même année. Les résultats montrent que dans le « Grand Milan » les migrations de retraite sont un phénomène réel mais de faible amplitude. Elles concernent un peu plus les hommes que les femmes et les couples plus que les ménages a…
