Grassroots in Québec: How new public management and corporate culture is trickling down
Résumé
In an effort to shed light on this erosion of social change practices within Quebec community organizations, it is necessary to analyze how several of these community groups have, to various degrees, adopted some of the management techniques, practices, and culture of corporations through the implementation of New Public Management methods by government. We will also illustrate the challenges that this situation entails for local grassroots democracy. This article focuses on the Quebec experience while being aware, as indicated by the introductory sentence, of the influence global trends have had on the evolution of State-community sector relations. For this reason, our use of theoretical literature is not limited to, although drawn heavily from, Quebec, thus recognizing the specific situation of Quebec within global capitalism.
