Social Theory. An Historical Analysis of Canadian Socio-Cultural Policies, 'Race' and the 'Other'. A Case Study of Social and Spatial Segregation in Montreal
|
| Abstract |
The author notes that while the U.S. solution to "ethnic" diversity has officially been the 'melting pot' model, the Canadian approach has formally been the recognition of diversity and group rights within the contemporary policy of "multiculturalism". He explains that the Canadian policy emerged from a national debate that attempted to conciliate the French Quebec population, but it resulted in the eventual recognition of the "other" groups. The author examines the Canadian socio-cultural policies of immigration and "multiculturalism", and the impact on socio-economic and spatial differentiation in Canadian society. The author's case study is Montreal. Chapter 8 of the book is titled: "Social and Spatial Differentiation in Montreal."
