Abstract:
The territorial management is a concept of bringing together actors, of adaptation to territorial changes and which requires a collective dimension. In connection with Constantine, its outof-town extension without being followed by institutional reforms, its saturated historic center and an ignored actor logic are considerations that challenge this concept. So this observation presupposes the actions undertaken according to two factors, the first exogenous relating to national decisions and the second endogenous relating to its thousand-year-old site. The main objective of this thesis is to analyze the dynamics of the territory of Constantine. Its development in several municipalities and at the same time a de-densification of the mother city has led to a significant change in its scale under a significant influence of exogenous factors. It is also a lack of synergy and bringing together actors in an endogenous context (the 302 medina). The limit of regulatory urban planning instruments and the historical specificity of Constantine call for territorial management to combine distinct territories and articulate different dynamic elements.
