L'industrialisation des régions périphériques du Canada est un processus encore mal connu. La venue de l'Alcan à Arvida, au Saguenay, constitue un bel exemple. A l'aide des dossiers du personnel, cet article décrit en premier lieu l'évolution de la structure des professions au complexe industriel de l'Alcan de ses débuts en 1925 jusqu'à 1940. Il montre ensuite la constitution d'un noyau de travailleurs stables à travers le roulement élevé de la main-d'oeuvre au cours des premières années; ce processus résulte à la fois des sélections opérées par l'employeur, des départs volontaires et de l'effet de la Crise. Parmi les travailleurs stables, qui forment le gros des effectifs pour l'ensemble de la période, on remarque un taux assez élevé de mobilité professionnelle au sein de l'entreprise.

Although the 1960s are overwhelmingly associated with student radicalism and the New Left, most Canadians witnessed the decade's political, economic, and cultural turmoil from a different perspective. Debating Dissent dispels the myths and stereotypes associated with the 1960s by examining what this era's transformations meant to diverse groups of Canadians - and not only protestors, youth, or the white middle-class.With critical contributions from new and senior scholars, Debating Dissent integrates traditional conceptions of the 1960s as a 'time apart' within the broader framework of the 'long-sixties' and post-1945 Canada, and places Canada within a local, national, an international context. Cutting-edge essays in social, intellectual, and political history reflect a range of historical interpretation and explore such diverse topics as narcotics, the environment, education, workers, Aboriginal and Black activism, nationalism, Quebec, women, and bilingualism. Touching on the decade's biggest issues, from changing cultural norms to the role of the state, Debating Dissent critically examines ideas of generational change and the sixties. --Publisher's description
