C'était la banlieue en 1970 : un monde en profonde mutation

This conference, part of the lecture series around the exhibition 'C'était Paris en 1970', features Emmanuel Bellanger, research director at CNRS. It explores three major upheavals in Paris and its suburbs during the 1970s: the overhaul of local political institutions, the end of the golden age of industrial cities, and the beginning of the disintegration of 'Red Paris' and the 'Red Belt'. The talk examines how the last pages of Greater Paris history turned as the 'suburban crisis' began to make headlines.
