520 _aThe town of Vintimille is known for its frontier market where converge each Friday several hundreds of migrants originating from many areas of the world (Senegal, China, Ecuador, India, Pakistan, Maghreb countries, Eastern European countries). This market is specialized in the illicit street selling of counterfeits (hand bags, watches, glasses, sports shirts, etc). Those commercial exchanges concern individuals, groups and organisations that operate – or want to operate – on a transnational basis. They challenge the coherence of the social formations historically built, they redefine the hierarchy of the memberships and the affiliations, and introduce in the practice possibilities of tricks and negotiations of the social order all the more effective as they are unceasingly readjusted according to the ratio of forces. These migrants (street vendors, small traders... ) call into question the relation between alterity and territoriality.
