Social Theory. An Historical Analysis of Canadian Socio-Cultural Policies, 'Race' and the 'Other' : A Case Study of Social and Spatial Segregation in Montreal

Using Montreal as a case study, the author examines Canadian socio-cultural policies of immigration and "multiculturalism", and the impact on socio-economic and spatial differentiation in Canadian society. His main objectives are to illustrate levels of stratification within Canadian society and to analyse it within a historical and material framework. Although published in 2013, the book appears to have been written in the 1990s, since most of his sources pre-date 1996 and his census data is from 1986.
