Industrialization processes have been global from their very beginning. However, their interpretation still tends to be limited to specific locations or regions, and to specific time periods. Regularly, for example, it is stated that the industrial revolution started in Europe, from where it spread to the world, supposedly bringing technological and social progress to „less developed“ countries. Earlier periods of technology and knowledge transfer processes, that were already in place in t...

Patrimoine industriel et photographie entretiennent des relations étroites. La photographie constitue une source de l’archéologie industrielle. Elle permet d’éclairer les liens entre les hommes, leurs outils, leurs machines et leurs lieux de travail. Elle est également, une fois l’activité industrielle terminée, un outil de documentation et d’étude des sites. Mais bien au-delà, saisie par des artistes capables de transcender les représentations communes, conférant aux vestiges industriels ...

Community lies at the heart of the processes of industrialization and de-industrialization. From labor to landscapes and from social fabric to ecological communities, scholars regularly examined the industrial community as core to industrial heritage. However, while social scientists have long studied industrial communities, only recently has there been a general consensus of respecting and working with communities themselves. Even so, working “with” a community on industrial heritage has ...

Cette session nous permettra d’explorer à travers neuf cas d’études internationaux les différentes stratégies de mise en valeur de patrimoines industriels ainsi que leurs impacts sur les communautés et leur territoire.  L’analyse de musées, d’espaces culturels, de parcours et d’aménagements urbains sera l’occasion de mettre en relief les questionnements d’identité, de sens, de pertinence et d’impacts qui animent l’ensemble des acteurs de ce patrimoine en transformation.  ...

Pays continent, dont l’industrialisation s’est amorcée dès le 19e siècle, le Canada a vu à la faveur entre autres de la désindustrialisation et de la requalification urbaine, des pans importants de son patrimoine industriel être altérés ou encore détruits. Cela étant dit, même ainsi, il n’en demeure pas moins que ce pays possède encore aujourd’hui un patrimoine industriel significatif. Or, le Canada étant une confédération, la protection et la sauvegarde de cet héritage industri...

Past efforts to conserve and interpret industrial heritage have rarely acknowledged the role of industry causing damaging environmental change. But todays obvious worldwide climate change inevitably impacts our thinking about conservation. This is why we propose a Roundtable session to encourage people to take a fresh look at environmental impacts of industrial heritage.Already in the 1970s narratives of industrial history as a succession of triumphs began to be qu...

Les efforts visant à préserver le patrimoine industriel s'inscrivent dans un contexte socio-économique et politique précis. Mais qu'est-ce qui est préservé et pour qui ? Et, par ailleurs, quelle est la relation entre les sites du patrimoine industriel et les communautés ouvrières soumises à la désindustrialisation qui les jouxtent souvent ? Steven High examinera les façons dont la préservation du canal de Lachine à Montréal, le principal site du patrimoine i...

Joignez-vous à nous pour poursuivre de manière informelle la discussion lancée lors de la conférence publique.Une consommation sera offerte aux quinze premières personnes arrivées.

This session brings together a set of studies focused on the uses adaptative reuses (and even replications) of industrial heritage in the larger context of its urban and social landscapes. Urban industrial memory, its social and territorial impacts, as well as its conservation and promotion, will be discussed from a variety of case studies ranging from Central and Southern Europe to Turkey, China and North America. The interdisciplinary approaches underlying each of the studies will also b...

This session addresses a perpetuating disjunction between conceptualisation of heritage and heritage making in heritage studies vis-a-vis heritage management and conservation of industrial heritage sites. There is an inevitable impact of this disjunction on advancing policy in people- and place-centred approaches to heritage futures. This session aims to explore ways in which tangible and intangible traces of the past can be utilised creatively in shaping desirable places to dwell and work...
