N1 - 1 N2 - Drawing on an ethnographic study of the eviction of inhabitants of a municipal campsite in the Paris region, this article underlines the central role of residential and status insecurity – and more broadly of sociospatial determinants – in hidering successful collective action by vulnerable people. First, it shows how the unpredictability associated with the legal status of this accommodation becomes a political weapon for the mayor, who manages to divide nascent opposition to rumours of the closure of the campsite; second, it reveals the instruments of symbolic violence that ultimately undermine attempts at resistance, thus ensuring the success of the plan to evict the campsite UR - https://shs.cairn.info/journal-espaces-et-societes-2021-2-page-17?lang=en&redirect-ssocas=7080 ER -
