| Title |
The 1832 Montreal Cholera Epidemic: A Study in State Formation
|
| Abstract |
An examination of government response to the cholera epidemic in Montreal during the summer of 1832, focusing on the Montreal Board of Health, the public health regulations, medical involvement on the Board and the voluntary movement established to help the victims. The author argues that the government reaction to the cholera epidemic, especially in the social regulation of individual lives, marks the beginning of the modernization of the Lower Canadian state. Irish immigrants brought the disease to the city.
