> Evolution of the concept of territorial intelligence within the coordination action of the European network of territorial intelligence

Jean-Jacques GIRARDOT (University of Franche-Comté, France) | 19/11/2009 3:46 pm

Territorial intelligence is an emerging concept highly polysemous. This article does not give a comprehensive definition and consensus. Our subject is to take stock of the evolution of our concept of territorial intelligence at the end of the Coordination Action European Network of Territorial Intelligence (caENTI) to present a definition that supports ambition, the research directions and activities of the European Network Territorial Intelligence (ENTI). Our goal is to position the territorial intelligence as an alternative to development models based on economic efficiency in the short term or the central policy authority.
