Nadia Arab's research is in line with theories of action, organizations and collective action. The angles of analysis that she favors are centered on public and private actors, their practices, their logic of action, their knowledge and skills; on the mechanisms of public-private cooperation and regulation, from the scale of an urban planning operation to that of multi-level territorial cooperation; on the instruments, norms, power relations, representations... that shape urban action and its changes, on the scale of a public or private organization as well as on the inter-organizational and interinstitutional scale.
