I'll be more prepared than most people
We report on interviews with very young Canadian workers regarding their first jobs, with a focus on why they started working, the rewards and risks of their work, and their familial supports. Our participants were largely positive about their early work experiences, although they also raised concerns, e.g. about safety. We reflect on three inter-related themes emerging from their accounts: competence and vulnerability, independence and dependenc…
Reflections on Using Participant-Generated, Digital Photo-Elicitation in Research With Young Canadians About Their First Part-Time Jobs
Participant-generated photo-elicitation usually involves inviting participants to take photographs, which are then discussed during a subsequent interview or in a focus group. This approach can provide participants with the opportunity to bring their own content and interests into research. Following other child and youth researchers, we were drawn to the potential of participant-generated photo-elicitation to offer a methodological counterweight…
Recruiting the “culturally compatible” migrant
Working Holiday programs have been identified as an increasingly significant source of temporary migrant labor for several wealthy states. This case study adds to limited work on this phenomenon in the Canadian context by offering a partial chronology of Irish Working Holiday migration to Canada and a critical analysis of Canadian government discourse that positioned Irish migrants as not only “culturally compatible” but also part of white settle…
Borderline Canadianness
Borderline Canadianness offers a unique ethnographic approach to Canadian border life. The accounts of local residents, taken from interviews and press reports in Ontario’s Niagara region, demonstrate how borders and everyday nationalism are articulated in complex ways.
Unauthorised Crossings, Danger and Death at the Canada-US Border
Recent Canada–US ‘Beyond the Border’ negotiations have been accompanied by a highlighting of the issue of unauthorised crossings at the Canada–US border. In this paper, I offer some grounded contextualisation of this current politicisation by drawing upon press reports and interviews to document Canadian border-resident and press constructions of unauthorised crossings in one Canada–US border region in the late 1990s to mid-2000s. The evidence su…
Whiteness and Narratives of a Racialized Canada/US Border at Niagara
Interviews with young White Canadian borderlanders in Niagara reveal their awareness of a racialized local Canada/US border. The analysis focuses on how they describe and trouble but ultimately legitimize, racially stratified cross border mobilities at this site. It is argued that the narratives elide racialized privilege and offer limited challenge to racialized penalty at this major node of the North American and global economy
Canadian border resident experience of the “smartening” border at Niagara
Much of the writing on the post‐9/11 Canada/U.S. border analyses (supportively or critically) the border‐related projects of economic and political elites. This paper focuses instead on local residents’ experiences of a changing border. Drawing on interviews and press reports from the Niagara region, the paper provides a grounded account of Canadian border life both at and after 9/11. Local experiences of altered cross‐border mobilities, intensif…
Young Borderlanders, Tourism Work, and Anti-Americanism in Canadian Niagara
This article analyzes local engagements with tourism at the Canadian Niagara border. While regional elites promote cross-border tourism as part of a wider project of economic restructuring, interviews conducted with young Canadian borderlanders reveal critiques of tourism-related work and expressions of anti-Americanism. Young borderlanders' experiences and identities, I argue, have wider implications for regional and continental projects of inte…
Over the River
Drawing on interviews with Canadian borderlanders, this article examines childhood experiences with the Canada-US border in the mid-1980s to early 1990s. The retrospective accounts of childhood border experiences demonstrate how childhood was produced and experienced in border crossings and how the production of childhood intersected with a stratified border to reinforce forms of privilege and exclusion associated with class, citizenship, gender …

The Politics of Traveller 'Child Begging' in Ireland
Prompted by legislative reform with respect to 'child begging' in the Irish Children Act 2001, this article examines the history and politics of 'child begging' and other children's work among the minority population of Travelling People in Ireland. Increased official focus on Traveller 'child begging' in the 1990s, and an attempt on the part of Traveller advocates to defend related children's work from criminalization, is located within the cont…
The Right Kind of Children
Anthropology has a long tradition of contributing cross-cultural cases to the literature on and socialization but a renewed anthropology of childhood is beginning to augment studies of child development in different settings with analyses of the cultural of childhood in the context of national and global arenas.(1) In this paper I show why part of this project must involve critical attention to how various are produced within and are central to p…

Contested Childhood
This article examines discourses of childhood drawn from press reports, parliamentary debates and government-sponsored reports concerning the Travelling People, an indigenous ethnic minority population in Ireland. Discourses of childhood are located within a changing Irish political economy and shifting Traveller-related policy. The case study reveals how discourses of childhood articulate with, and often reinforce, inferiorizing discourses of ra…
For the Protection of the Children
This article examines politics of minority childhood in Ireland through an analysis of dominant discourses and published biographical and autobiographical accounts. The focus is on official constructions and experiences of Traveller children during decades preceding implementation of a state settlement policy in mid-1960s. Minority childhood is discussed within context of anti-Traveller racism, political economy of Irish childhood, and formulatio…

Gypsies, Celts and tinkers
Post-colonial nationalist ideologies and practices construct an Irish Republic free of 'ethnicity' and 'racism'. The ethnicization of the Irish Travelling People ('itinerants', 'tinkers') and the existence of anti-traveller racism, however, reveal the limitations of this construction. This article focuses upon the antecedents of anti-traveller ideologies by concentrating on the period that preceded Irish independence in 1922. The history of Irish…
