Aboriginal Autonomy and Development in Northern Quebec and Labrador
Author: Colin Scott
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774841087
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
The Canadian North is witness to some of the most innovative efforts by Aboriginal peoples to reshape their relations with "mainstream" political and economic structures. Northern Quebec and Labrador are particularly dynamic examples of these efforts, composed of First Nations territories that until the 1970s had never been subject to treaty but are subject to escalating industrial demands for natural resources. The essays in this volume illuminate key conditions for autonomy and development: the definition and redefinition of national territories as cultural orders clash and mix; control of resource bases upon which northern economies depend; and renewal and reworking of cultural identity.

The Empire Within
Author: Sean Mills
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0773583483
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
In a brilliant history of a turbulent time and place, Mills pulls back the curtain on the decade s activists and intellectuals, showing their engagement both with each other and with people from around the world. He demonstrates how activists of different backgrounds and with different political aims drew on ideas of decolonization to rethink the meanings attached to the politics of sex, race, and class and to imagine themselves as part of a broad transnational movement of anti-colonial and anti-imperialist resistance. The temporary unity forged around ideas of decolonization came undone in the 1970s, however, as many were forced to come to terms with the contradictions and ambiguities of applying ideas of decolonization in Quebec. From linguistic debates to labour unions, and from the political activities of citizens in the city s poorest neighbourhoods to its Caribbean intellectuals, The Empire Within is a political tour of Montreal that reconsiders the meaning and legacy of the city s dissident traditions. It is also a fascinating chapter in the history of postcolonial thought.

The Making of the Nations and Cultures of the New World
Author: Gérard Bouchard
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0773532137
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
Between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries the Americas, Australia, and New Zealand emerged as nations. Through conquest and violent appropriation, European immigrants settled these lands and soon developed a sense of belonging, most potently expressed in identity, memory, and the belief in utopias. Many of these new collectivities or founding nations succeeded in breaking their colonial links to achieve political and cultural emancipation from their European mother country. The Making of the Nations and Cultures of the New World explores the question of how a culture - a collective imaginary - is born. Gérard Bouchard compares the historical itineraries of New World collectivities, which were driven by a dream of freedom and sovereignty, and finds major differences as well as striking commonalities in their formation and evolution. He also considers the myths and discursive strategies devised by the elites to unite and mobilize very diversified populations. The first English translation of Genèse des nations et cultures du Nouveau Monde, winner of a Governor General's Literary Award.in 2000, this acclaimed book provides important insights for contemporary nations in crisis.
