The Making of Post-war Canada - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

As they enter the twenty-first century, Canada's postwar baby-boomers have witnessed the consolidation of corporate capitalism, the expansion of the wage labour market, and the restructuring of industries and occupations. Recognition of such trends as they unfold is often elusive. The Making of Post-War Canada documents major social changes: women's entry into the paid labour market; a decline in fertility and family size; a preponderance of dual-earner families; the rise of the welfare state; an ageing Canadian population; increased immigration; and emerging collective claims, notably by women, Que'becois, the visible minority, and native peoples. Peter Li provides a theoretical coherence to what appear haphazard and disjointed social events, and a basis for understanding other social and demographic changes in Canadian society since 1945.
