You can find bellow the slides presented by Marion Maisonobe on the occasion of the 53th colloquium of the ASRDLF (Association de Science Régionale de Langue Française) in July 2016 in Gatineau.
It is a presentation in french of the chapter Four commonly held beliefs about the geography of scientific activities (Handbook of Geographies of Innovation), written “four hands” with Michel Grossetti, Denis Eckert, and Josselin Tallec.
