Title
F. R. Scott and Social Justice in the 1930s
Abstract
The author begins this essay by pointing out that "Between 1929 and 1932, a number of economic, political, and social events coalesced to focus F.R. Scott's attention upon the deteriorating social conditions of early twentieth-century Canada." Frank Scott (1899-1985) was a constitutional law professor at McGill University, as well as a renowned poet and social activist. The author examines Scott's writings during the 1930s that exemplified his views on "the deteriorating social conditions" of the country.
