Documentary abstract — original language

Mediterranean forest issues are increasingly framed through the lens of governance. International reports often portray forest degradation as a structural feature of so-called developing regions, particularly in Africa and South America, promoting participatory governance as a normative response to environmental crises. This paper critically examines forest governance in Mediterranean contexts by questioning the modern representation of nature underlying dominant policy frameworks. Governance principles- participation, transparency, sustainability, equity, and accountability- are analyzed through the notion of a loss of the object, understood as the shift from an appropriated to an administered nature. This procedural normativity reveals conceptual and political limits that weaken the analytical relevance of governance models, especially in the southern Mediterranean. Participation is further examined as a dispositif marked by hybridized social solidarities and expanding power relations that obscure the socio-political nature of forest conflicts.
