- discontinuities, socio-spatial divides and scales of control (gentrified city center, suburbs, periurban area, metropolitan area)

- comparison between the spaces of criminality, of perceived insecurity and of intervention

- hierarchies between spaces, polarisation, concentration, visibility of resources allocated, strategic and touristic spaces

- global flows, local impacts (networks vs. territories, traceability, borders)

- local governance (neighborhood police, relationship with elected representatives, joint management of order)

- the privatization of public services and spaces (local committees, neighborhood watches, surveillance company, CCTV surveillance, enclosure)
