Professeur

Participe à 2 sessions

Martin Drouin est professeur au Département d’études urbaines et touristiques à l’UQAM depuis 2011. Il a d’abord été formé en histoire avant de bifurquer, au doctorat, vers les études urbaines. Il s’est alors tourné vers l'étude du contemporain en s’intéressant à l’action citoyenne pour la sauvegarde du patrimoine montréalais menée dans le cadre de nombreuses luttes urbaines à partir des années 1970 (Le combat du patrimoine, Montréal 1973-2003, PUQ, 2005). Les travaux qu’il mène portent sur l’histoire du patrimoine bâti au Québec. Il s’intéresse plus particulièrement à la patrimonialisation et au sens investi dans la conservation du patrimoine. Dans cette optique, l’action citoyenne s’impose comme un axe privilégié de ses recherches. Il est non seulement intéressé par la sauvegarde et la requalification des bâtiments anciens, mais il se penche également sur les modes de mise en valeur et de médiation, notamment par le biais du tourisme. Il est actuellement vice-président du Conseil du patrimoine de Montréal, une instance consultative de la Ville de Montréal en matière de patrimoine.

Heritage Changes the Social OrderCitizenshipUrban HeritageActivists and Experts
Heritage changes peopleActivist vs expertHeritage-makers

There is no doubt that the involvement of civil society is a key element in the history of heritage. Working upstream, in line with or against the tide of state recognition, enlightened amateurs or ordinary citizens have invested time and energy in the safeguarding and enhancement of a good, a place or a practice, judged, from their point of view, as irreplaceable or remarkable. It is easy for each country or each region to find an example of a precursor, working alone or in a group, who has ...

What if we changed our views on heritage? And if heritage has already changed? While, on the global scene, states maintain their leading role in the mobilization of social and territorial histories, on the local scale, regions, neighbourhoods and parishes have changed. Citizens and communities too: they latch on to heritage to express an unprecedented range of belongings that no law seems to be able to take measures to contain, often to the discontent of...

Most of what we experience as heritage emerges into conscious recognition through a complex mixture of political and ideological filters, including nationalism.  In these processes, through a variety of devices (museums, scholarly research, consumer reproduction, etc.), dualistic classifications articulate a powerful hierarchy of value and significance.  In particular, the tangible-intangible pair, given legitimacy by such international bodies as UNESCO, reproduces a selective ordering of cul...

"What does heritage change?" is a multifaceted  question to which the answer(s) are in primary respects related to real-life negotiations among different groups of citizens, cultures, races, ethnic groups, sexual identities, and social classes about received, official and/or widely accepted or accomodated intangible attributes, cultural traditions, historic monuments, buildings, and other transmitted or revived historical legacies. Heritage designated by and for whom, for what motivations, an...

Le patrimoine fait aujourd’hui l’objet d’attentions autant que d’agressions et de destructions. Cela peut s’expliquer par les difficultés de son identification ou de sa conservation. Cela peut plus profondément s’expliquer parce que, dès le départ, il célébre un événement ou conserve une mémoire qui peut être ou devenir une source de dissenssions et de conflits politiques. Enfin, sa reconnaissance suscite des gains économiques pour les uns mais des pertes pour les autres. Mais peut-être...
