LA&PS Professor Audrey Laurin-Lamothe was awarded a SSHRC Connection Grant for a project titled “La Grande transition: Raviver les solidarités postcapitalistes.”
The Great Transition collective is calling on all those interested in building a fairer future to propose activities for the fifth edition of its international conference. The event aims to foster reflection on ways to strengthen the various branches of the left, social movements, and activist groups, both in their practices and in their theoretical analyses.
Professor Laurin-Lamothe stated that “we also want to find ways for the left to reach out to our neighbours, colleagues, and fellow citizens, to root ourselves in our living spaces, to develop bonds of trust with those around us, to create communities. These alliances will be necessary to fight against exploitation and mass expropriation, protect our natural spaces, and build lively, livable neighbourhoods and villages together.”
The next edition of the international conference The Great Transition will be held from Thursday May 29 to Sunday June 1st in Montreal. The theme for this event will be Reviving post-capitalist solidarities. The conference is organized with the collaboration of Alternatives and Historical Materialism.
