Author: Carolyn Côté-Lussier

Book Description
Contemporary Criminological Issues tackles some of today’s most pressing social issues, from the criminalization of Indigenous peoples to interpersonal violence, border control, and armed conflicts.

This book is published in English.

Quebec Identity
Author: Jocelyn Maclure
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0773571116
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
In articulating an alternative narrative Maclure reframes the debate, detaching the question of Quebec's identity from the question of sovereignty versus federalism and linking it closely to Quebec's cultural diversity and to the consolidation of its democratic sphere. In so doing, he rethinks the conditions of authenticity, leaves space for First Nations' self-determination and takes account of globalization. This edition has been expanded for English-Canadians with additional references as well as a glossary of names, institutions, and concepts.
