History
Écosociété was founded in 1992 by a group of activists. The first meeting took place on June 19, 1992, with Serge Mongeau, Dimitri Roussopoulos, Laval Doucet, Jacques Gélinas, and Dalbé-Jacques Viau. The Institut pour une Écosociété was founded, and its first action was the establishment of the publishing house. The first book, 'Pour un pays sans armée', was published in early 1993. In 1995, 'L'an 501 – la conquête continue' by Noam Chomsky was published. In 1998, a new edition of 'La simplicité volontaire, plus que jamais…' by Serge Mongeau was published. In 2001, the collection 'Retrouvailles' was inaugurated with the reissue of 'Kidnappé par la police'.
