Reuse and recycling are practices that aim to reduce waste and that are now part of the circular economy and the green economy, in a global context of increasing scarcity of resources and decarbonisation. The construction industry, which currently accounts for almost 70% of the waste produced in France, is a particularly sensitive sector. What was the place of salvage, reuse and recycling in construction for societies of the past? This book is the result of a collective reflection involving specialists from several fields of research, which aims to provide an original diachronic overview of how builders confronted these issues and implemented these practices from Antiquity to the 19th century. Through a history of figures, ideas, people, contexts and techniques, this review highlights a veritable "culture of reuse".
