Hier caractérisés par l'emphase mise sur les aspects humains du travail, ils sont aujourd'hui fortement centrés sur ses composantes économiques tout comme leurs confrères anglophones. Les deux groupes marquent aussi un éveil aux aspects sociaux des organisations.

Life & Death of a Union: The Canadian Seamen's Union, 1936-1949 - Stanton, John E. (Steel Rail Educational, 1978)
[The author] introduces some of Canada's most extraordinary trade unionists. We encounter nine Ottawa mandarins who pave the way for the destruction of Canada's merchant navy, ship building industry, and 50,000 jobs. We meet certain employers whose greed was boundless and who were prone to violence and lawlessness. And we view the antics of politicians who turn out to be considerably less than honourable. Mr. Stanton tells the shameful story of the union's death from, as he says, "employer intransigence, government corruption, judicial bias, and American thuggery." It took a commission of inquiry, a government-imposed Administratioin, and almost a generation to clear up the mess left by U.S. gangsters. They had been brought into the shipping industry by ruthless employers unrestrained by the Mackenzie King government. For, as Mr. Stanton demonstrates, Mackenzie King was "an employer's man, first, last and always." --Publisher's description

Oral History and the Canadian Labour Movement - Abella, Irving (Archivaria, 1977)
To the historian, oral history is a useful tool; to the labour historian it is an essential one. Unlike his colleagues in political, diplomatic and business history, the historian of the labour movement has few written documents on which to rely. Few of the important decisions and events in the' history of the trade union movement in Canada were ever recorded in print, and those that were, soon were discarded: memories of those decisions and events remain the private preserve of the men and women who were integrally involved. Only the oral historian can unearth many of these recollections; only oral history can fill many of the gaps in the history of the Canadian labour movement. --Introduction

Despite the economic importance of large variations in individual productivity of logging-machine operators, few studies have attempted to examine the source of such variations. Based on data obtained for a total of 757 shifts of tree-felling activity, this exploratory study attempted to: (a) document variation in on-the-job performance and assign the variation to sources « within individual operators », « between operators », or « between firms »; (b) relate ob-served performance measured operator characteristics (ability and motivation); and (c) suggest ways in which average levels of job performance could be improved.

Ideology Surrounding Women's Work in Canada, 1931-1956 - Boutilier, Ann Marie (McMaster University, 1977)
Ideology determines how one experiences the world, shapes beliefs and expectations. Ideology is rooted in the structural dynamics of the social formation within which it exists. The articulation of the ideological with the economic structure can become problematic at certain points in time. This thesis uses a structural analysis to explore how changes in the economy have affected women in the Canadian labour force and how these changes related to the ideology surrounding women's work. Integral to this thesis is an analysis of how the State, through its labour policy, its government publications, and so on, does at times mediate between the economic situation and the dominant ideology as reflected in the popular media. This ideology is manifested through the institutional structure of the State as it influences both labour policy and the media.+ This thesis presents empirical data on the changes that took place in Canada between 1931 and 1956 in the ideology surrounding women's work. We take articles appearing in popular magazines and government publication of the era to be manifestations of the dominant ideology. We analyze materials in Maclean's, Chatelaine, Saturday Night, and the National Home Monthly. We analyzed government publications relating to labour policy; focussing on the Labour Gazette, and several reports and publications of government committees. The thesis begins with a theoretical outline. We discuss the concept of ideology and consider its role in the reproduction of class relations, the concept of a reserve army of labour, and finally, a brief summary of the concepts outlined above. We conclude the first chapter with a discussion of the methodologies used in our qualitative and quantitative analyses. The second, third and fourth chapters use qualitative analyses of periodicals to trace the articulation of the ideoloeical with the economic. Specific references are made to the media, to labour policy and to changes in the economy. These chapters deal with three distinct time periods -- with the Depression, with the World War Two years, and the period 1946 to 1956. In Chapter 5 we present a quantitative content analysis of selected magazines over the three periods. Our analyses of variations in the frequency of publications of articles relating to women's work and their activities both inside and outside the home confirm the shifts in emphasis over the period 1931 to 1956 that emerge from the earlier quantitative analyses. However, while the content and tone of articles does change with time, as is revealed in the qualitative analysis, the majority of articles have always related to traditionally domestic and feminine concerns. The data show an increasing professionalization of the housewife role. We conclude with a discussion of the importance of ideology in determining what is defined as women's work, and the importance of the control of women's labour market participation to the maintenance of the existing capitalist economic order.

Strikes as Safety-Valve Institutions - Chermesh, Ran (Relations industrielles / Industrial Relations, 1977)
The present study argues for the usefulness of searching for factors outside of the sub-system of industrial relations as partial causes of stike activity. It treats the industrial relations sub-system as an internal part of the overall social System, in which strikes are regarded as expressions of generalized social tension, i.e., as safety-valve institutions.

Reformers, Rebels, and Revolutionaries: The Western Canadian Radical Movement, 1899-1919 - McCormack, A. Ross (Heritage, 1977)
The opening of the twentieth century saw a fervour of radical political movements in Western Canada. Ross McCormack explores the constituencies, ideologies, and development of early reformist, syndicalist, and socialist organizations from the 1880s up to the Winnipeg General Strike in 1919. He distinguishes three types of radicals - reformers, rebels, and revolutionaries - who competed with each other to fashion a gneral western constituency. The reformers wanted to change society for the betterment of the workers, but both their aims and methods were moderate, essentially transfering the philosophy and tactics of the British labour movement to the Canadian west. The rebels, militant industrial unionists, periodically battled the Trades and Labour Congress in order to establish unions strong enough to defeat the employers and, if necessary, the state. The revolutionary Marxists were committed to the destruction of industrial capitalism and the establishment of a society controlled by the workers. The book describes the origins of radicalism, traces the histories of the various organizations that expressed its ideals, and discusses the impact of the First World War on the labour movement. Using previously unexplored sources, McCromack has produced the first comprehensive examination of the early history of the radical movement in western Canada, adding an important dimension to our knowledge and understanding of Canadian labour history. --Publisher's description. Contents: The emergence of the socialist movement in British Columbia -- Militant industrial unionism and the first western rebellion -- The ascendancy of the Socialist Party of Canada -- A case study in labourism: Winnipeg 1899-1915 -- The Industrial Workers of the World and militant industrial unionism -- Western radicals and the Great War: the first phase -- Western radicals and the Great War: the second phase.

Absenteeism and Overtime: Double Jeopardy - Mikalachki, Al; Chapple, D. C. (Relations industrielles / Industrial Relations, 1977)
This study investigated factors leading to absenteeism in a large auto plant employing about 1,000 workers. The hypotheses examined dealt with the effect on absenteeism of: the skill required for the job, the worker's age and health, and the base pay rate. The initial analysis proved opposite of what is usually found. An additional factor was examined: the ability of the worker to control the amount of overtime he worked. The data then showed that the worker who is able to achieve a set income for the fewest days in attendance by working overtime, uses this device to spend less time on the job. Ideas were also presented to show that positive reinforcement of good attendance can result in decreased absenteeism.

The Canadian Left: A Critical Analysis - Penner, Norman (Prentice-Hall, 1977)
When craftsman from Britain began to pour into Canada at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century they brought more than industrial skills with them. They brought a trade union consciousness from a country where the labor movement was already highly developed, and many also came with socialist ideas, which they proceeded to implant on Canadian soil. Socialist ideas at the same time also came from the United States, and somewhat later immigrant laborers from eastern and central Europe added to the strength of socialism in Canada. --Introduction

Honest Womanhood: Feminism, Femininity and Class Consciousness Among Toronto Working Women, 1896-1914 - Roberts, Wayne (New Hogtown Press, 1977)
If these arguments are correct [i.e., arguments against a sexist psychological interpretation], then we must set ourselves another course to explain the failure of working class women in the 1896 to 1914 [period] to respond to their problems in a more explicitly collective fashion. The framework for such an alternative explanation rests upon a more concrete understanding of the work-life and work-place ecology of working women. Reliance on reliable clichés and "momified" abstractions about feminine psychology has hindered a recognition of the strictures that demographic and occupational influences placed on the possibilities for a concerted action. Combined with an appreciation of some of the thoughts and activity of working women, this approach should help us to reevaluate both the objective constraints and organizing capacities of the woman worker and the interplay of various aspects of her consciousness--particularly her feminism, her sense of feminity and her class consciousness. --From author's introduction

Construction Labour Relations Association in Canada - Rose, Joseph B. (Relations industrielles / Industrial Relations, 1977)
This paper examines the relatively recent movement by employers in the construction industry toward province-wide associations specializing in labour relations. Beginning with the formation of the Construction Labour Relations Association of British Columbia (CLRA) it reviews the influences of contractor cooperation, union opposition and labour laws on the ability of these organizations to bring unity to contractor ranks and alleviate what has been described as the imbalance of power in construction labour relations. There is also an examination of the organizational characteristics of these CLRA-type organizations which reveals how they have been able to maintain control of members and reduce fragmentation.

A History of the Mine Workers' Union of Canada, 1925-1936 - Seager, Allen (McGill University, 1977)
The Mine Workers' Union of Canada was a trade union, centred in the coal fields of the Province of Alberta, which existed between the years 1925 and 1936, and included a membership of between 2,000 and 4,900 mine workers during that period. The formation of the union came about as a result of the break-up of District 18 of the United Mine Workers of America in 1924-1925. From the onset, its leadership was composed of differing elements, from conservatives who opposed the U.M.W. of A. for nationalistic reasons, to members of the Communist Party. The M.W.U.C. was one of the founding members of the All Canadian Congress of labour in 1927, and its President, Frank Wheatley, was a Vice-President of the Congress, until his ouster from the miners' union in 1930. miners' union in 1930. Early in that year the Communists, led by Harvey Murphy, began a drive to have the M.W.U.C. disaffiliate from the A.C.C.L., and join the new revolutionary trade union central, the Workers' Unity League. They were apparently successful, for in May of 1931, the union's membership voted by a 73% margin to affiliate with the W.U.L. Later that year the Communist Party of Canada was outlawed and the M.W.U.C. itself was declared to be an "unlawful association" in the courts. Anti-communist and anti-union sentiments on the part of employers led to long and bitter strikes, the most important of which took place in the Crows' Nest Pass in 1932. Finally, after six years of intense struggle on both the industrial and political fronts, the Workers Unity League was disbanded by the Communist Party. In June of 1936, the membership of the Mine Workers' Union of Canada voted to return to the U.M.W. of A. and the union passed into history.

The Big Nickel: Inco at Home and Abroad - Swift, Jamie (Between the Lines, 1977)
Inco is the world's largest producer of nicke. This gripping account of the corporation is an essential contribution to an understanding of concentrated economic power, how it operates in Canada and the Third World, and its human consequences. J.P. Morgan, Wilfrid Laurier, John Foster Dulles, and the CIA all play roles in the intrigue surrounding Inco's growth. Ranged against them are the workers who produce the wealth. Members of the Western Federation of Minders, the Industrial Workers of the World, the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers and the United Steelworkers of America all confront Inco. A story of resistance emerges - of union busting, of attacks by company goons, and of successful organizing drives. Today the struggle broadens to achieve safe working conditions and a cleaner environment. As Inco extends its arms around the world in an attempt to keep up its profits, Indonesia and Guatemala are confronted with a new chapter in a familiar colonial story. Military dictatorship and corporate expansion go hand in hand. The largess of the Canadian government facilitates the process. --Publisher's description

A Test of Social Conflict Theory: The Case of the Winnipeg General Strike - Thomas, Lillian Jean (University of Manitoba, 1977)
The problem to be investigated in this study centres on discovering how urban conflict first emerges as a visible force. Those circumstances which led to the outbreak of open conflict in Winnipeg will be examined to test four competitive social conflict theories. Each theory establishes a series of assumptions about how conflict will emerge. The substantive implicatjons of these assumptions will be compared with the available information on the actual conditions evident at the moment of the emergence of the strike. Through this comparison, this jnvestigation will determjne which theory or theories best describes how the incident of urban confljct actualiy emerged to produce the Winnipeg General Strike of 1919. This research has concentrated on urban conflict, rather than rural conflict, because the urban culture more accurately reflects the structural make-up of our society. In Canada, over l6 million people live in cities. That represents 76.1% of the total population of Canada, and this figure is rising by 2.9% per annum. Thus, with an increasing majority of our population residing in urban centres, the problems of urban living and its resultant conflicts, have become an increasingly salient feature of the composition of Canadian society. This investigation will be performed by centering specifically on urban unrest, rather than analyzing turmoi1 at a regiona1 or national level. Canadian history has had few examples of wide-scale conflict. Most forms of insurgence within Canada have been limited to either a single industry or a single city. This may be because Canadian cities are isolated from each other, and extend across the country in a series of pockets located along its southern border. This separation may have made it difficult, in the past, to transport issues to other communities. As telecommunications had greatly improved the linkages between urban centres by l919, this may explain why some sympathy for the Winnipeg General Strike was expressed jn other cities by means of minor sympathy strikes, although there was little long term unified protest outside the city itself. Therefore, limited by Canadian experience, this work will confine itself to the emergence of conflict within an urban centre.

Artisans, Aristocrats and Handymen: Politics and Trade Unionism among Toronto Skilled Building Trades Workers, 1896-1914 - Roberts, Wayne (Labour / Le Travail, 1976)
Examines trade unionism among skilled building trade workers in Toronto during the period, 1896-1914. The author analyzes trades such as carpentry, ironworking, and stonemasonry to challenge traditional conceptions of building trade unions. Fragmentation amongst the trades severely impacted the ability of the workers to generate significant change. The author concludes that further analysis is needed of the role of building trade workers in the labour movement.

Le Québec et le Congrès de Berlin, 1902 - Rouillard, Jacques (Labour / Le Travail, 1976)
The article examines the landmark 1902 meeting of the Trades and Labour Congress of Canada, that took place in Berlin (now Kitchener). The Congress is an organization of labour unions, which during this 1902 meeting became an organization of exclusively international unions. This resulted from a long battle between international unions (like the Knights of Labor) and their rivals, such as the Conseil central des Métiers et du Travail de Montréal, which originated in Quebec. The 1902 Congress reinforced pre-existing structures that ensured international unions’ dominance in Canada.

A Place in the Sun: The Industrial Council at Massey-Harris, 1919-1929 - Scott, Bruce (Labour / Le Travail, 1976)
Examines the Industrial Council at the Toronto Massey-Harris plant from 1919-1929. Argues that the council played a critical role for management in communicating with workers, but did not contribute to any management concessions to workers. Suggests that the council symbolized management's good-will towards the workers, but was never a truly democratic institution. Concludes that industrial councils contributed to a decade of relative labour peace by making minor concessions to workers.

Labour, Capital and the State: Canadian Railroads and Emergent Social Relations of Production, 1850-1879 - Barkans, John Victor (McMaster University, 1976)
The impact of rail road development on Canadian society has recently become a much debated topic. A significant interpretation of Canadian economic development posits a fundamental contradiction between mercantilists and industrialists, arguing that the former have maintained supremacy over the latter and that this has retarded the emergence of industrial capitalism. Further, it is claimed that Canada's railways were designed to promote mercantile interests and functioned to impede the transition from a mercantile to an industrial economy. The above formulation, however, largely employs strictly economic criteria to characterize Canadian society. This thesis presents an alternate framework, one which attempts to view social reality from the bottom-up, that is from the point of view of the producers and their work relationship. Using the criteria developed for this framework, it is argued that railroad development between 1850 to 1879 marked the transition from a mercantilist to an industrial capitalist society and, moreover, that these transportation projects were the backbone of this social change.

Technological unemployment – A Failure in Theorizing - Beach, Earl F. (Relations industrielles / Industrial Relations, 1976)
The subject of technological unemployment is used to illustrate how accepted theory leads to wrong answers because the technique used is that of partial equilibrium analysis. On this basis one rules out the investment needed to make the change in production method. In a dynamic context, in which such change continues, the employment effects of this investment should be allowed, and they can be seen to be substantial relative to the loss in employment from the installation of the new capital equipment. The result is that technological change conceived in this broad context is expansionary, and the implications for industrial relations and other policies is very important.
