Social scientists have played many roles in Canadian politics since the Second World War. Stephen Brooks and Alain Gagnon examine the forms and extent of social scientists' involvement in the political process, their relationship to the state, and the complexities of their class position. The unique development of the social sciences in Quebec and their relationship to Quebec nationalism are examined and distinctions between development in this community and in the predominantly anglophone community of the rest of Canada are contrasted.

The Social Sciences in Canada is about the background and history of the Social Science Federation of Canada in honour of its fifty years of national activity. There can be little doubt that during the last fifty years the federation, and its predecessors, have had a substantial impact on the development of the social sciences in Canada. The history of this organization is probably the best barometer that we have for recording the changes that have occurred in the relation between social scientists and Canadian society.

Tout en brossant une minutieuse étude des mentalités, Marc Durand retrace l'histoire du Québec depuis sa découverte par Jacques Cartier, en 1534, jusqu'à nos jours. Fiers de leur esprit aventurier et entreprenant, mais battus par les Anglais en 1759, les Québécois, mis à l'écart de l'économie par les vainqueurs, vont se replier sur les travaux agricoles. L'Église et les intellectuels s'appliqueront alors sans relâche à préserver une langue française « pure » ainsi que leurs traditions ancestrales. Mais à partir des années 1950, et surtout avec la Révolution tranquille des années 60, les Québécois rejettent les valeurs rurales dont ils se sentent prisonniers et, qu'ils soient acquis ou non à l'idée de souveraineté, prennent en main leur destinée économique et politique. http://www.editions-imago.fr/
