Deportation helped to relieve employers, municipalities, and the state from the burdens of poverty, unemployment, and political unrest, by getting rid of workers when they became useless, surplus, or obstreperous. But this is only half of the equation: apparently straightforward economic imperatives were also profoundly political. Agitators and radicals challenged a social and economic order (and a political system) that immigration policy served. Radicals were designated as undesirable not so much by legislation as by employer blacklists and complaints, the surveillance networks of the industrial and Dominion police, the militia, the RCMP, and United States intelligence, and a certain anti-labour tradition in immigration policy. Deportation preserved the status quo. Immigration officials at times lied to conceal their activities; they broke their own laws, and consistently abused their power, operating virtually outside the knowledge and control of Parliament, the courts, and the general public.

This study is an analysis of the changes in the social formations of the Inuit and Innut populations of northern Labrador as a consequence of interaction with Western capital, from approximately 1500 to the present. It is concluded that the significant changes which have taken place can only be explained'if they . are placed within a unified theoretical framework that combines both macro and micro levels of analysis. This requirement stems from the impact of the global nature of capital, and from the specific characteristics of the indigenous social formations in northern Labrador. To facilitate the analysis, the history of the penetration of capital into northern Labrador has been divided ioto political-economic periods: mercantile: 1500-1926, and welfare state: 1926-present. The former is further subdivided into two phases: the competitive phase: 1500-1763, during which no one European power held sway; and the monopoly phase, 1763-1926, during which either Britain or one of its colonies was jurally the sole European authority. Finally, the welfare period, 1916-present, which includes a transitional period, 1926-1942, is characterized by the increasing importance of wage labour and state agencies. Each of these periods is examined in terms of the internal and external relations between and amongst the European and native social formations which led to mutual modifications.

The first decades of the twentieth century saw some significant changes in the nature of office work. Large numbers of employees were added to the payroll, jobs were broken down into their component parts, and women were brought in to fill the lowest positions. Relatively little attention has been paid, however, as to how the introduction of these changes varied from industry to industry or from region to region. This study of the conditions of employment at the Banque d'Hochelaga indicates that bank workers, unlike other white-collar employees, were faced with the instability that came from being regularly moved from branch to branch, In other regards, the working conditions faced by the employees of the Hochelaga differed from those for the industry as a whole because of the recruitment of the Hochelaga's work force from a French-speaking labour market.
