Ce document présente les actes du colloque du Conseil québécois de la recherche sociale tenu à Montréal le 11 mai 1992. Les principaux thèmes qui y sont abordés sont les suivants : les producteurs de recherche financés par subvention d'infrastructure et par subvention de projet; l'environnement de la recherche et les organismes de subventions; et, l'environnement de la recherche et les universités, les établissements de santé et de services sociaux et les organismes bénévoles ou communautaires.
Comme ouverture, on considère l'orientation des travaux et le contexte de ce recherche, et on traite des grandes tendances de la méthode biographique en France. Ensuite, le 1er volet de ce colloque porte sur les fondements théoriques et épistémologiques des méthodes qualitatives et sur les débats qui y sont reliés (problème de la scientificité, critères de scientificité des méthodologies qualitatives, et la place de l'observation et du travail de terrain). Le 2e s'intéresse aux aspects plus méthodologiques (recherche en recherche qualitative, débats autour de la scientificité de l'entretien). Le 3e pose la question de l'usage qu'on a pu faire des méthodes qualitatives dans différents champs disciplinaires: la sociologie, le travail social et la criminologie (recherche qualitative et problèmes sociaux, et aperçu de la diversité des pratiques en recherche qualitative).
Cet ouvrage constitue une importante source d'information et de réflexion sur l'approche contemporaine de la recherche sociale. Refusant les barrières disciplinaires, les auteurs démontrent que l'acquisition de la connaissance n'est pas affaire de chapelle ni de technologie, mais d'abord de doute et d'ouverture : le doute et la remise en question du " savoir acquis " ; l'ouverture et la tolérance face à la différence. De conception multidisciplinaire, Recherche sociale couvre le processus de la recherche en sciences sociales, de l'établissement de la problématique jusqu'à la collecte des données. Les auteurs, chercheurs dans les universités et les entreprises privées, représente...

With increasing demands for evidence-based decision-making, the academic community must be ready to train researchers who can reduce the gap between health care research and practice. One program dedicated to promoting such training is the Canadian Health Services Research Foundation (CHSRF, now the Canadian Foundation for Healthcare Improvement) and Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR) Chair Program. Participants of these programs were selected to develop innovative research programs that bridge this divide, as well as to mentor the next generation on building partnerships with organizations outside the university through applied research. The CHSRF/CIHR Chairs have come together in Shaping Academia for the Public Good to draw out valuable lessons learned throughout its first decade. It includes chapters on funding, knowledge transfer, policy frameworks, working with multiple stakeholders, and managing organizational settings, among other topics. Shaping Academia for the Public Good will be a helpful resource for those interested in the potential of new research approaches to improve our healthcare system.
As Canada's social safety net continues to be eroded and the gap between rich and poor in our society continues to grow, it becomes increasingly urgent to confront the problems of poverty in fresh and creative ways. Political scientist François Blais offers a bold new proposal to assist the poorest and most disadvantaged in our society: a guaranteed basic income, or allowance, to be paid to every Canadian citizen. Elaborating on ideas endorsed by two Nobel laureates, Blais outlines how a program might be implemented that would replace the present profusion of social assistance programs with a single, universal benefit. Stimulating and original, Ending Poverty offers an important contribution to the ongoing debate over social justice in this country. Originally published in French as Un revenu garanti pour tous. Translated by Jennifer Hutchison.
A sixteen-year-old slave boy who finds freedom in a most unusual way, a teenage prostitute who does not, a business manager of the 1790s, a fugitive Kentucky slave who makes a name for himself as a jockey and horse trainer - these are some of the people we meet in these thirty stories about black life in and around Montreal between the last days of slavery and the early years of Confederation. The black experience in Montreal during these eighty-odd years, a time in which the city grew into the metropolis of a new country, has remained largely unknown. These stories begin to fill that gap.
