| Summary: | This article proposes to study various municipal nightlife commissions in Lille. Since the 2000s, these consultation bodies have spread in France and in other European countries with the aim of providing a framework for the development of a nightlife economy. Based on a monographic survey conducted since 2012, resorting to interviews with nightlife professionals and representatives of relevant institutions (town hall, prefecture, police), ethnographic observations of these commissions, and an analysis of municipal archives, we propose to sketch out a genealogy of these consultation bodies. We put aside the search for their effects on public action and rather study their uses and, in fine, their latent functions. Our diachronic perspective allows us to test the Eliasian hypothesis of a form of “curialisation” of nightlife. These deliberation spaces are a mean for the city council to gain a foothold in this policy sector by enrolling the owners of night-time establishments as oblique relays for the maintenance of the night-time order. |
