Abstract

The current state of municipal and regional cultural policies in Quebec represents a major evolution since the adoption of Quebec's Cultural Policy in June 1992. A "municipalization" of cultural policy has occurred. Over the past ten years, there has been a fourteenfold increase in the number of municipalities with cultural policies in Quebec (to 93 today), and this phenomenon appears to be growing and gaining greater influence as the new century begins. These cultural policies have become important strategic tools for cultural, social, and economic development in the province. This paper reports the main findings of a recent study that examined the content of 51 cultural policies of Quebec municipalities.
