Cooperation and Conflict : Relations Among the Teachers' Association in Quebec, 1959-1969
|
| Abstract |
The author notes that a vital element in the transformation of Quebec society during the Quiet Revolution of the 1960s was the establishment of a modern education system. As the provincial government took initiatives to remodel education, the Corporation des Enseignants du Québec (CEQ), the Provincial Association of Protestant Teachers (PAPT), and the Provincial Association of Catholic Teachers (PACT) became more involved in the mainstream of Quebec education. He points out that as the scope of these teachers' associations' actions evolved, they grew as organizations and they emerged as militant unions in Quebec's work force. While these teachers' associations worked in isolation from one another at the beginning of the ten-year period, there was movement towards greater cooperation in the mid-sixties and there were constant contacts during the latter part of the decade. The author explains that while these contacts involved significant cooperation, there were also conflicts between the associations. Cooperation among the associations were most highly developed in relation to economic and labour relations concerns. Serious conflicts arose over the issues of language, school board reorganization and membership jurisdiction.
