Au Québec, les services de garde à l'enfance comptent plus de cent cinquante ans d'histoire. Des salles d'asile au XIXe siècle aux garderies sans but lucratif, un demi-siècle plus tard, ils sont maintenant connus sous l'appellation de Centres de la petite enfance. Pendant cette longue période, beaucoup d'eau a coulé sous les ponts en matière de services de garde au Québec. Voici le seul document sur l'histoire des «garderies» qui retrace, année après année, le quotidien du réseau, ses luttes, ses victoires et ses embûches. Pour savoir où l'on va, il faut savoir d'où l'on vient! Une lecture, indispensable, de la société.
Welfare Reform in Canada provides systematic knowledge of Canadian social assistance by assessing provincial welfare regimes and emphasizing changes since the late twentieth century. The book examines activation, social investment, and economic inequalities and provides nuanced perspectives on social welfare across Canada's provinces in relation to trends and issues in the country and beyond. These conceptual, international, and historical perspectives inform in-depth case studies of social assistance reform in each province. The key issues of social assistance in Canada, including gender relations, immigrants, Aboriginal peoples, and the impact of activation programs, are addressed, as is the possibility of convergence taking place in provincial welfare policy. This book is the second volume in the Johnson-Shoyama Series on Public Policy, published by the University of Toronto Press in association with the Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, an interdisciplinary centre for research, teaching, and executive training with campuses at the Universities of Regina and Saskatchewan.
