Abstract
Although the spatiotemporal dimension of social license to operate (SLO) issues is underexplored, the collective memory of a local community and the territorial anchoring of tensions are important factors in the SLO trajectory. Through the qualitative study of a socio-environmental controversy related to the establishment of a landfill facility in Algeria, this research deepens our understanding of the spatiotemporal dimension of SLO and offers two main contributions. The first clarifies four types of relational legacies. The second theorizes two mechanisms through which these relational legacies influence the SLO process: the mobilization of collective memory and the reification of the territory.

Résumé
La dimension spatio-temporelle des enjeux d’acceptabilité sociale est relativement sous-explorée. Pourtant, la mémoire collective d’une communauté locale ainsi que l’ancrage territorial des tensions sont des facteurs importants du processus d’acceptabilité sociale. À travers l’étude qualitative d’une controverse socio-environnementale née de l’implantation d’un centre d’enfouissement technique en Algérie, cet article approfondit notre compréhension de la dimension spatio-temporelle de l’acceptabilité sociale et propose deux contributions principales. La première clarifie quatre types de passifs. La seconde théorise deux mécanismes à travers lesquels ces passifs relationnels influencent le processus d’acceptabilité sociale : la mobilisation de la mémoire collective et la réification du territoire.

Resumen
La dimensión espacio temporal de los problemas de aceptabilidad social está relativamente poco explorada. Sin embargo, la memoria colectiva de una comunidad local y el anclaje territorial de las tensiones son factores importantes en la trayectoria de la aceptabilidad social. A través del estudio cualitativo de una controversia socioambiental relacionada con el establecimiento de un relleno sanitario en Argelia, esta investigación profundiza nuestra comprensión de la dimensión espacio temporal de la aceptabilidad social y propone dos contribuciones principales. La primera aclara cuatro tipos de legados relacionales. La segunda teoriza dos mecanismos a través de los cuales estos legados relacionales influyen en el proceso de aceptabilidad social: la movilización de la memoria colectiva y la reificación del territorio.
