De brand in de Innovation : De ramp die België veranderde
- 2017. - 2000

Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Een ramp zonder voorgaande was het, de brand in de Brusselse Innovation op 22 mei 1967. Er vielen 323 doden en zeker meer dan 150 gewonden. Toen het shoppingcenter in de Brusselse Nieuwstraat uitbrandde, waren er naar schatting zo'n 800 mensen aanwezig in het gebouw. Op basis van onderzoek in de archieven en gesprekken met ooggetuigen van toen reconstrueert historicus Siegfried Evens deze grote ramp. Vijftig jaar na de feiten is het bijvoorbeeld nog steeds niet duidelijk hoeveel slachtoffers er precies zijn gevallen. Ook de vraag wat de brand heeft betekend op politiek en maatschappelijk vlak komt aan bod. De vele foto's maken van het boek een schitterend tijdsdocument.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article examines how the Innovation department store fire in Brussels (1967) influenced thepolitics of risk management in Belgium. To do this, I rely on the combination of disaster and riskstudies frameworks and a historical focus on temporality and actors. On the one hand, it is revealedthat the Innovation fire was a decisive part of a longer political and societal process within theBelgian risk society. After the disaster, political changes occurred in the domains of fire preventionregulation, coordination of first aid organisations, and local traffic regulation. In addition, thecatastrophe was an opportunity for Brussels’ city planners. The perception of the fire as a nationaldisaster, abundant media coverage, and a public debate on the risks of long-term modernisationrendered the catastrophe an opportunity for change. However, many regulatory changes had alreadybeen instigated earlier, making the disaster an accelerator rather than a catalyst of change. On theother hand, four actors who set the agenda and implemented the new legislation, are identified:politicians, journalists, experts and insurance companies. In sum, it is argued that the Innovationdisaster is a model case study for both disaster research and political history.

- This article examines how the fire in the Innovation department store in Brussels(1967) influenced the politics of risk management in Belgium. I rely on theframeworks of disaster and risk studies and a historical focus on temporality andactors. The Innovation fire was a decisive part of a longer political and societalprocess within Belgium’s risk community.

In addition the catastrophe providedan opportunity for Brussels’ city planners. The perception of the fire as a nationaldisaster, abundant media coverage, and a public debate on the risks of long-termmodernisation made the catastrophe an opportunity for change.
