Indigenous and Non-Indigenous Unemployment, Employment and Participation Rates Through 2024: Education is Strongly Related to These Three Rates
The overall employment picture for the Indigenous population living off reserve was worse in 2024 than in 2023, and it was also worse in 2023 compared to 2022. They were also worse for non-Indigenous people in 2024, compared to 2023. Unemployment rates were higher, and employment and participation rates were lower. Employment, unemployment, and participation rates have been more favourable for the non-Indigenous population than for the Indigenous…
Indigenous and Non-Indigenous Unemployment, Employment, and Participation Rates Through 2023: Education Remains Critical
Employment, unemployment, participation, and wage rates have been more favourable for the non-Indigenous population than for the Indigenous population. With one exception, this has been the case in every year since 2007, when the data first became available. While wages were higher in 2022 than they were in 2021 for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations, the overall employment picture for the Indigenous population was worse in 2023 than …
Indigenous and Non-Indigenous 2021 Unemployment, Employment, and Participation Rates: Improved from 2020—Education is Critical
Unemployment rates were lower, and participation and employment rates were higher for Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada in 2021. The meaningful improvements in 2021 are in comparison with the COVID-19-induced negative rates of 2020. The employment and unemployment rates have not fully recovered from their 2019 pre-COVID rates. This is the case for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. Employment, unemployment, participation, a…
Education Remains Critical with Unemployment, Employment, and Participation Rates in 2020 Being the Worst in Many Years for Aboriginals and Non-Aboriginals
The higher the level of education completed the higher the wage rates, the lower the rate of unemployment, and the higher the employment rates. Unemployment rates were significantly higher and participation and employment rates were significantly lower for Aboriginals and non-Aboriginals in Canada in 2020. This may be attributed to the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic. The rate of unemployment increased more for nonAboriginals than for Aborigin…
A Review of Unemployment, Employment, Participation, and Wage Rates for Aboriginals and Non-Aboriginals—2007-2019
For Aboriginals in Canada, their employment and participation rates decreased, and their unemployment rate remained the same in 2019. In contrast, non-Aboriginals' unemployment, employment, and participation rates improved. These rates and wage rates are and have historically been more favourable for non-Aboriginals than for Aboriginals. These rates are examined by gender, age, and sector, as well as for Métis and First Nations

The Family and Society in Nineteenth-Century Latin America: An Historiographical Introduction
This historiographic essay reviews literature on the Latin American family within the context of themes, issues, and methodologies important in studies of European and United States families. The family in Latin America is found to have been a more central and active force in shaping political, social, and economic institutions of the area than was true in Europe or the United States. The authors suggest that institutions in Latin American societ…

National Capital and National Development: Financing Chile's Central Valley Railroads
In studying the economic growth of Latin America, historians of widely divergent viewpoints have tended to emphasize the role of foreigners in the developmental process. As a result, they have often overlooked the efforts of Central and South American entrepreneurs in mobilizing capital and adopting technology to foster the growth of their countries. Chile is a case in point. Like their counterparts throughout Latin America, mid-nineteenth-centur…
Family Clusters: Generational Nucleation in Nineteenth-Century Argentina and Chile
This paper is derived from the authors' detailed studies of two groups of nineteenth-century families-eighteen families in Argentina and twenty-four in Chile. The studies revealed such remarkable similarities in the evolution of the two groups that it is possible to propose a broad generalization in respect to the social organization and national formation of both countries: there was, in each country, a three-generation sequence during which a n…
