Archives of the Greens of international research on ecology Centre (CIRE) document the history of close political ecology

Les archives des Verts conservees au Centre international de recherche sur l'environnement (CIRE) constituent un ensemble precieux pour l'historien de l'ecologie politique. Leur consultation est cependant rendue malaisee, laborieuse et aleatoire en raison de l'absence de classement des fonds. Mais, au-dela de la contrainte qu'elle represente, la persistance de cet etat primaire offre a l'historien un materiau supplementaire a analyser. L'interet du fonds d'archives ne reside plus seulement dans son contenu mais egalement dans sa forme, le domaine de l'archivistique creant la possibilite d'un regard nouveau sur l'histoire des partis politiques.//The Greens' archives kept at the Centre international de recherche sur lenvironnement (CIRE) represent a valuable resource to the historian of environmentalism. Accessing them, however, is a cumbersome process due to the lack of a filing system. While this is a constraint, it also provides the historian with additional material to analyse. Indeed, the archives are of interest not only because of their content, but also because of the very state in which they are kept. In this regard, archives can offer a new outlook on the history of political parties. http://www.cairn.info/resume.php?ID_ARTICLE=HP_027_0146] Reproduced by permission of Bibliothèque de Sciences Po
