 Land-use conflict through the lens of heritage strategies 
This article questions the evolution of land-use conflict related to forest management at the time of the energy transition. Using the tools of patrimonial economics, it focuses on the actors’ strategies that underlie the conflictual dynamics, mutations, and modes of regulation. Our reflection is based on the empirical study of two forest territories: the city of La Tuque in Quebec and the Landes de Gascogne in France. First, the historical description of these productive and territorial systems shows that the frictions generated by the energy transition are as much due to the arrival of new actors as they are due to the reawakening of tensions between historical users. The article also highlights the regulatory power acquired by some of the stakeholders. This leads us to consider that even though the energy transition does influence forest management toward a more commercial approach, not all actors can support these new trajectories.
