L’utilité des TIC en appui d’une variété de fonctions, que ce soit en milieu urbain, au service du public, des entreprises ou des institutions gouvernementales est aujourd’hui largement reconnue. Le concept des « villes intelligentes » est apparu là où les systèmes locaux d’innovation, largement soutenus par des réseaux numériques et par leurs applications, ont favorisé : la diffusion de connaissances et du savoir, la prise de décisions éclairée, la coopération en réseau, l’interaction efficace entre différents acteurs, et la collecte de renseignements. Cet article se propose d’interroger le concept des « villes intelligentes » pour un développement communautaire inclusif. La première partie aborde le concept de « villes intelligentes » en examinant ses diverses significations, les avantages clés de ces villes et leurs potentiels de développement local. Dans la deuxième partie, l’expérience grecque est présentée à travers l’exemple remarquable d’une « ville intelligente » ayant développé des applications spécifiques utilisant les TIC en vue d’un développement local inclusif. Enfin, on livre dans la dernière partie, des éléments de débat et des perspectives sur le concept de villes intelligentes pour le développement communautaire. |

The value of ICTs in support of a variety of functions in urban environments, serving people, businesses and governmental institutions is nowadays greatly acknowledged. The concept of ‘smart’ cities has emerged, where local innovation systems, largely supported by digital networks and their applications, are contributing to the: diffusion of knowledge and information, knowledgeable decision making, network cooperation, efficient interaction among various actors and intelligence gathering. The aim of the paper is to indulge in the concept of ‘smart’ cities for inclusive community development. The first part elaborates on the concept of ‘smart’ city, by exploring its various meanings, key dimensions, and potential for community development. In the second part, the Greek experience is presented, by means of a prominent example of a Greek ‘smart’ city, developing city-specific ICTs applications for inclusive community development.
