Summary: | Shared gardens are short-lived community phenomenons. Created in free and unoccupied city areas, they are eventually meant to be destroyed following the urban devellopment. Despite of this characteristic, shared gardens are felt important by those actually involved in such communities—the gardeners themselves. Written upon the results of a field study, this paper aims to describe four types of gardeners, identified by the different ways each one invest their respective land. It then explains how those shared gardens, however ephemeral in their nature, succeed in two ways : not only do they create strong collective dynamics, but they also have long-lasting effects on urban territories around them, reaching beyond the basic gardening activity. |
