  • With Good Intentions

    Celia Haig-Brown, David A NockBOOKWith Good Intentions2006

    With Good Intentions examines the joint efforts of Aboriginal people and individuals of European ancestry to counter injustice in Canada when colonization was at its height, from the mid-nineteenth to the early twentieth century. These people recognized colonial wrongs and worked together in a variety of ways to right them, but they could not stem the tide of European-based exploitation. The book is neither an apologist text nor an attempt to arg…

    This paper examines the most cited books in Canadian sociology published between 1975 and 1987 as measured by the Social Science Citation Index. It contrasts books which received twenty or more citations over a five-year period from all sources (thirty-one books in all) with how many citations these books had received in the two core Canadian anglophone sociology journals. The latter list at its upper levels was mainly oriented to feminist sociol…

  • Constructing the Quebec Referendum

    Open AccessDavid A Nock, Gertrude J RobinsonARTICLEThe Canadian Journal of Sociology2000Cited by: 1

    The 1980 Quebec Referendum was a momentous event that redefined Canada's nationalist ideologies. While the political implications of the referendum have been widely analysed, this is the first sustained study of the role played by the media in shaping and interpreting the referendum campaign.Robinson takes an in-depth look at three separate issues. She first pinpoints the ways in which federal and provincial nationalist rhetorics were constructed…

    Cet essai critique presente non seulement les deux volumes d'ecrits choisis d'Arthur Kent Davis, publies en 1991 et 1993, mais egalement la biographie du sociologue, dans l'optique de l'evolution de sa carriere et de sa methodologie. Arrive a la conclusion que « l'analyse structuro-fonctionnaliste ne menait nulle part », il se tourna vers la dialectique et entreprit d'analyser les Etats-Unis dans les annees 1950 et le Canada dans les annees 1970.…

    Il ressort clairement de la lecture des textes en sociologie de la connaissance et de la science que les savants élaborent leurs interprcctations de la réalité en tant que membres de groupes et de réseaux sociaux. Autrement dit, les savants ne réagissent pas uniquement en fonction de la problématique à l'étude ou de normes scientifiques largement diffusées. D'où l'hypothèse selon laquelle les sociologues canadiens citeront les études de leurs col…

    l'attrait des sectes religieuses non‐chrétiennes est‐il inversement proportionnel à la religiosité de la population? Stark et Bainbridge ont montré qu'une telle relation existe, tant aux Etats‐Unis qu'au Canada. Leurs sources de données canadiennes (listes d'abonnements et d'auteurs de lettres aux revues de sectes, listes de chapelles colligées à partir de botins de sectes et téléphoniques) étaient peu conventionnelles, et avaient donc les défaut…
