Recent works have highlighted the role of consumption in regional development and questioned the focus on production-oriented approaches in regional planning. To date, consumption-oriented strategies have only been studied in specific cases such as rural areas or urban regeneration projects. This article examines the impact of the growth of consumption-oriented activities on local policymaking processes. To do so, it studies the reshaping of local planning strategies in the science park of Sophia-Antipolis in the context of a growing residential economy. We show that local governments are now questioning traditional production-oriented policies as tensions appear between maintaining the area’s high-tech specialization and meeting the demands of residents for services and amenities. However, production- and consumption-oriented strategies should not be seen as being incompatible. Consumption-oriented strategies aim at reducing the dependence on high-tech activities, but they also contribute to meeting some of the science park’s challenges, such as housing shortages. They also help attract and retain highly skilled executives or engineers in the science park. More than a consumption turn, recent local policies in Sophia mark a shift from a technopolitan production-oriented strategy to a hybrid strategy based on tools embedded in a vast continuum from production-oriented to consumption-oriented strategies.

最近的工作强调了消费在区域发展中的作用，并对区域规划中以生产为导向的方法的关注提出了质疑。迄今为止，以消费为导向的战略仅在农村地区或城市更新项目等特定案例中得到研究。本文考察了以消费为导向的活动的增长对地方决策过程的影响。为此，它研究了在住宅经济增长的背景下，索菲亚-安蒂波利斯科学园的地方规划战略的重塑。我们表明，由于维持该地区的高科技专业化与满足居民对服务和便利设施的需求之间出现紧张关系，地方政府现在正在质疑传统的以生产为导向的政策。然而，不应将面向生产和消费的战略视为不相容。以消费为导向的战略旨在减少对高科技活动的依赖，但它们也有助于应对科学园区的一些挑战，例如住房短缺。它们还有助于吸引和留住科技园的高技能管理人员或工程师。不仅仅是消费转向，索菲亚最近的地方政策标志着从以技术城市生产为导向的战略转变为基于嵌入从生产导向到消费导向战略的巨大连续体中的工具的混合战略。它们还有助于吸引和留住科技园的高技能管理人员或工程师。不仅仅是消费转向，索菲亚最近的地方政策标志着从以技术城市生产为导向的战略转变为基于嵌入从生产导向到消费导向战略的巨大连续体中的工具的混合战略。它们还有助于吸引和留住科技园的高技能管理人员或工程师。不仅仅是消费转向，索菲亚最近的地方政策标志着从以技术城市生产为导向的战略转变为基于嵌入从生产导向到消费导向战略的巨大连续体中的工具的混合战略。
