L'atelier abordera la réalité actuelle de villes qui, comme Montréal, sont principalement constituées d'une multitude de minorités. L'atelier portera une attention particulière au paradoxe suivant: puisque les villes sont de de plus en plus hétérogènes, certains secteurs très homogènes semblent persister, comme par exemple les ghettos. En fait, on observe à Montréal, comme dans d'autres villes, une séparation marquée, voire radicale, entre les classes sociales et les diverses communautés ethniques et culturelles. Certaines minorités s'éloignent de plus en plus du centre et deviennent dissimulées dans des zones périphériques et des cul-de-sac. L'atelier se concentrera sur l'invisibilité croissante de la multiplicité dans les centres-ville (lieux de pouvoir, d'échange et d'abondance) et également dans certains quartiers. L'objectif de l'atelier sera de nommer et de révéler à Montréal, et éventuellement à d'autres villes, les formes et lieux d'homogénéisation sociale et culturelle. Ces réflexions serviront à développer, prolonger et reconfigurer une action amorcée, action qui vise à hybrider l'existant et favoriser des échanges, des mixités et des diversités urbaines en vue d'une future ville divergente.

This workshop will address the current reality of cities like Montréal, whose populations consist of a multitude of minorities. The workshop will focus on the following paradox: while cities are increasingly heterogeneous, some homogeneous districts, or ghettos, persist. In Montréal, as in other cities, we can observe a very clear, even extreme, division between social classes and various ethnic and cultural communities. Some minority groups progressively distance themselves from the city centre and become invisible in the city's outskirts and its dead-ends. This workshop will concentrate on the increasing invisibility of multiplicity in downtown areas (sites of power, exchange, and abundance) and in certain neighbourhoods. The goal for this workshop will be to identify and reveal specific patterns and locations of social and cultural homogenization in Montréal, and ultimately in other cities as well. Our findings will serve to develop, extend, and reconfigure an initial action that aims to hydridize what exists and enable exchange and diversity in imagining a divergent city of the future.
Reservation preferable. Contact Marina Polosa, 514-848-2424 ext. 4778 mpolosa@alcor.concordia.ca
