Le syndicat, d'organisme purement prive qu'il était en une période initiale au Canada et au Québec, est devenu au cours des années 1940 un organisme de représentation officiel sur le plan de la détermination et de la protection des conditions de travail. On pourrait s'attendre à ce que l'intervention juridictionnelle relative à la protection de l'accès au syndicat fasse montre d'une évolution correspondante à celle de la nature juridique du syndicat. C'est ce qu'examine l'auteur.

This social history traces the English-language Canadian labour press from 1842 to 1900. It focuses on the role labour newspapers played in battling the appalling social conditions of Victorian Canada,and analyzes their successes and failures in trying to improve the lives of working-c1ass Canadians. Although the original theoretical framework called for a survey of the effects of labour journalism on the passage of progressive social legislation, little such legislation appeared on statute books before 1900.The thesis therefore attempts to show how the papers presented social issues in housing, health, welfare, employment,social security and several other key social development areas,through the use of anecdotal evidence and, the critical assessment of the opinions of historians. The underlying theoretical assumption of the thesis was that labour papers would provide a progressive view on all social issues.Although this image did not always prove true, the thesis does unearth evidence of the role of the labour press in the development of a mass working-clas sconsciousness and the creation of a unique working-class culture.The thesis further attempts to show how labour editors of the late 1800s were the pioneers of a radical intellectual and journalistic tradition which found expression in the weekly journals that represented the fledgling Canadian labour movement.

Examines working-class "penny capitalism" in Great Britain and Canada from 1867-1914. Argues that such small, full time (or nearly full time) self-employed producers, often working from home, were a substantial presence in working-class families, as were part-timers, although the latter had mostly a defensive function. Further, penny capitalists, with their petty bourgeois aspirations of social mobility, were inimical to working class homogeneity. Concludes that penny capitalists contributed to the forces of industrialization through their impact on employment, purchasing power, and economic restructuring, as well as meeting, at least to some extent, the local demand for goods and services.
