Architecture
Architecture is a design discipline, denoting both the professional practice and the built works associated with it. Architecture is commonly understood to be separate from building on the premise that it involves the conscious and deliberate design of elements rather than replicating established patterns; this is an increasingly problematic position that reinforces colonialist discourses over what constitutes architecture. Architecture has its o…

Minetown, Milltown, Railtown, Life in Canadian Communities of a Single Industry
The company town, source of so much of Canada's wealth, was - and is - a place with nowhere to hide. First published in 1971, Rex Lucas's Minetown, Milltown, Railtown is a groundbreaking study of what it's like to live in such communities. Today, with the oil-sands boom and rising commodity prices affecting everything from the value of the Canadian dollar to the balance of power within Confederation, single-industry towns remain as central as eve…

Social Implications of the Immediacy of Death
Face à l'imminence de leur propre mort, des mineurs emmurés lors d'un désastre minier s'inquiètent plus de la portée sociale de leur décès que de la mort elle‐même ou de l'au‐delà. Se considèrant morts d'un point de vue social tout en étant vivants, ils se représentent la discontinuation de leurs actes inachevés, les rôles sociaux qu'ils cessent de jouer et le caractère incomplet de leurs réalisations. Ceux qui vont mourir, comme ceux qu'ils lais…
Some Dimensions of Adult Status
Quand la femme changea radicalement tout à coup de statut en revenant aux Etudes a plein temps entre les âges de trente et de cinquante ans, cette innovation rendit explieites un certain nombre de postulats au sujet des rôles de l'adulte dans notre société quant à la définition du rôle, la compétence qu'il requiert, le pragmatisme de notre vie sociale et la variété des tâches que l'adulte y détient. Elle mit à jour aussi le caractére des relation…
