Abstract

L'engagement des jeunes (primo-engagés) est une problématique constante pour l'armée. Il apparaît que cet engagement est en partie dépendant de la géographie. Si la décision de rejoindre l'armée est une décision personnelle basée sur des valeurs (sens de l'engagement par exemple) et des attentes (qui peuvent notamment être d'ordre financier), l'origine géographique des primo-engagés est un facteur déterminant à prendre en compte. Les caractéristiques des territoires d'origine ont une influence sur les trajectoires de carrière car elles traduisent dans une certaine mesure l'origine sociale ainsi que les contraintes et dynamiques particulières des marchés locaux du travail. Ce fait est connu en économie du travail et s'applique pour bien des métiers ou des formations (ministère de la Fonction publique, 2003 ; COUPPIE et alii 2020). Il revêt une teneur particulière s'agissant du métier des armes qui, compte-tenu de ses spécificités, est fortement mis en balance avec les opportunités locales d'emploi dans le monde civil en termes de rémunération, d'intérêt des postes, de taux de chômage ou de dynamique des recruteurs dans les bassins d'emploi (ASCH ET ALII, 2018). Cette revue de littérature porte largement sur les États-Unis, pays dans lequel le plus d'études sont disponibles. La dernière section aborde quelques caractéristiques de la France relatives au recrutement des militaires.
