Popis: This article introduces the papers gathered in the issue. After an investigation of the semantic content of the « privatisation » concept, the article sketches an overall picture of the new regulation patterns of urban spaces, in terms of access and use, so much in the public as in the private realm. In each case, it seeks to find out the factors behind the generalisation of these new regulation patterns of urban spaces, questions the issue of the peculiarity of the processes of privatisation in European cities in comparison with experiences reported in the North-American urban context, and points out some political dimensions of these processes for urban governance.
