Résumé anglais |
Montreal as a political laboratory : a metropolis confronted with the power
of the agglomeration.
Both the territory and the social and economic fabric of Montreal are extremely
fragmented. Faced with this problem, at the end of the 1990s the government of Quebec
announced its intention to implement a sweeping reform of local institutions. However,
it was the provincial government of Quebec that took the lead, overhauling institutions
with an unexpected result : Montreal's urban area, the core of the government's project,
was paradoxically divided, and Montreal, a new city located on its central island and
which integrated all the so-called “suburban” communities, was given powerful
institutions allowing it to restructure municipal competencies and the services of the
agglomeration. Determined overall by the rationales of the city's élites, this reform
reflects a hybrid political model. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
