  abstract = {{T}he issue of spatial, social or political encounters between cities and parks is central to the {UNPEC} project and more broadly to the future of biodiversity and the wellbeing of city dwellers in an increasingly urban world. {U}rbanisation and nature conservation are not set processes fixing borders within the metropolitan structure; they are dynamic processes, underlain by ecological, political, social, economic and territorial logics. {I}n order to account for the mobility and intentionality linked to these processes, we use the concepts of eco- and urban frontiers. {E}co-frontier refers to the appropriation of real or imagined spaces by ecological discourses or practices, where such spaces benefit from environmental and aesthetic amenities usually perceived as being highly significant. {U}rban frontier refers to the spatial extension of urbanisation, whether as urban sprawl or satellite cities, or in the form of recovery and renovation of already urbanised areas. {I}n this chapter, we suggest the possibility that, in an emergent metropolitan context, eco-frontiers intertwine with urban frontiers. {H}ybridisation becomes essential-as an explanatory notion-in trying to decipher the reality of the cooperation, reconstitution, domination or exploitation links between the two processes.},
