Contesting Canadian Citizenship Historical Readings

These original essays examine key developments in the fields of welfare, justice, health, childhood, family, immigration, education, labour, media, popular culture and recreation, highlighting the contradictory nature of Canadian citizenship. The implications of these projects for the daily lives of Canadians, their identities, and the forms of resistance that they mounted, are central themes. This collection explores the origins and evolution of Canadian citizenship in historical context. It also introduces the more general dilemmas and debates in social history and political theory that inevitably inform these inquiries.Chunn, Dorothy E. is the author of 'Contesting Canadian Citizenship Historical Readings' with ISBN 9781551113869 and ISBN 1551113864.
