This new technological opening has given rise to hopes for the humanization of working conditions and the revitalization of rural areas. Overall, these expectations have been disappointed: few innovations have actually taken place. Today, a new technology: threedimensional printing and the Fabrication Laboratories, opens up a new field of experiments, enabling individuals to make the objects they need themselves and, on the other hand, to revitalize rural areas. The question arises as to whether these rural areas can implement such strategies, knowing that they lack the appropriate economic and technical culture, and that they come up against companies which historically have the monopoly of production.}}
