description | The focus of this text is an area known as "Est de Montréal". This area had been associated with the petrochemical industry and other manufacturing sectors for much of the twentieth century. However, due to the crisis of Fordism and the development of the technology-based economy, this area progressively lost its productive assets, which provoked important impacts on jobs, services, and the quality of life for its residents. Such a decline has motivated an important mobilization for an economic reconversion oriented towards the socio-ecological transition. The text discusses the situation of the area, the issues at stake in the process of reconversion, the launching and orientations of a group of socioeconomic actors called “Alliance pour l’Est de Montréal”, the sources of inspiration for this group, as well as the elements of a strategy for ecological and societal transition in this important area of the city. |
