The Financial Administration Act authorizing the creation of the Conseil du trésor du Québec was passed on Saturday, December 19, 1970.
To mark the 50th anniversary of this event, the Réseau international d'innovation et de prospective (r2ip) has decided to devote a book of reflections, both retrospective and forward-looking, to what good governance is all about. These reflections are based on the practices implemented by this Council and similar organizations elsewhere in the world.
In keeping with the spirit of the founder of foresight, Gaston Berger, we have chosen to carry out this analysis by looking ever further ahead, ever wider, in the most interdisciplinary and international way possible, taking risks that always point in the direction of what would be more human, and which deserves either to happen or to be preserved.
