The article reviews the book, "Rethinking Social Policy: Race, Poverty, and the Underclass," by Christopher Jencks.
-
Introduces the Communist writer, educator, and activist Margaret Fairley, who in the 1950s edited a book of Canadian oral labour history that was left unfinished. The book, entitled "With Our Own Hands," included three manuscripts - memoirs of Claude Theodore, Peter Cordoni, and A.J. MacDonald - that are published for the first time. Collectively, they shed light on the largely rural, immigrant, working-class experience of Canada in the early 20th century. MacDonald's reminiscences also describe life in the village of Cadott, Wisconsin, in the 1890s, before the family moved to Alberta. The manuscripts are located at the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library, University of Toronto.

Cette étude compare l'influence, sur le risque qualitatif d'accidents, de deux lignes d'assemblage de matériel de transport. L'organisation de la production de ces lignes diffère par le nombre de postes réduit sur l'une d'elles, ce qui intensifie la coactivité entre travailleurs à chaque phase du processus. Les 150 accidents avec perte de temps des assembleurs survenus sur ces deux lignes d'assemblage de véhicules routiers pendant trois ans sont regroupés en six classes homogènes, à partir d'une analyse multivariée de leurs caractéristiques. Aucun lien significatif n'est toutefois observé entre ces classes d'accidents et les lignes d'assemblage. Il est discuté que l'intensification de la coactivité puisse être un facteur de contribution à la fréquence des accidents mais non à leur type.

A study was performed to measure the centrality of beliefs about unions, to outline general tendencies in the centrality of workers' beliefs about unions, and to identify the salient beliefs of different typical working-class perspectives on labor unions. One technique for measuring centrality is to ask respondents to identify the importance of each belief in relation to their other beliefs concerning some social object. In the Q sort, each participant was given 48 one-sentence statements about unions, each typed on a separate card, and asked to physically sort them following a quasi-normal pattern. Some 100 workers in Hamilton, Ontario, completed the Q sort during the summer of 1987. Two dimensions are most salient for Hamilton workers: defense and rights. An average Q sort for the individuals sharing each typical union belief system was calculated. An exploratory factor analysis revealed 6 typical perspectives on unions. A key finding of this study is that there are typical ambivalent and antiunion perspectives on unions, just as there are typical prounion perspectives.
