The Evolution of Ethno-Linguistic Frontiers in the United States and Canada
|
| Abstract |
Contains a study of the Lanaudière village of Rawson, north of Montreal, which was founded by Anglophones in the early nineteenth century. By the mid-twentieth century the village contained a declining population of English-speaking Protestants and English-speaking (Irish) Catholics, and a growing population of French-speaking Catholics. The author describes the penetration of urban/industrial values which, he argues, caused the erosion of the distinctive subcultures within the community.
