Abstract :
[en] The paper deals with the territoriality expressed by the employees of a border plant in the automotive industry: smart in Hambach (Moselle, France). As a branch of the German group Daimler AG, led by a German director, the plant is an original place where distinct languages and nationalities coexist. In order to highlight the employees´ attitudes and representations on the territory, an interdisciplinary methodology has been set up, which is based on semi-structured interviews and mental maps. The results show different meanings for territoriality, where national borders are rarely directly expressed, although they play a structuring role in people´s representations. Three main types of representation emerge, whether they come from persons having their roots in the region, from persons with an expatriate profile, or from persons presenting some uncertainty as regards identity spatial markers.
