The gradual institutionalisation of judicial and juridical institutions has given birth, since the mid-60s, to a great diversity of experiences and the development of practices aimed to fill the gap between traditional juridical activities and the growingly diversified needs of justiciables. These experiences often share the same general characteristics with, and establish a larger conception of juridical services and access to justice. More broadly, we are talking about proximity justice. The forms taken by these experiences are studied systemically in this paper. We are proposing a typology that takes into account the extent and diversity of forms that such services may have. Three activity models can be observed: the juridical counter, the intercessory model and the multifunctional model. While accessible justice organizations often develop their activities apart from juridical institutions, relations have been forged gradually between these organizations and courthouses. We conclude with a discussion of the conditions assuring the autonomy, cooperation or integration of these practices into the activities and structures of the traditional justice system, each situation depending on the social and juridical context in which the practice has evolved.
