This book was released on 1993 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newfoundland is a little known island which lies in the cold Labrador current off the Atlantic coast of Canada. While its proximity to the valuable Grand Banks fisheries made it one of the earliest parts of North America to be settled by Europeans, Newfoundlanders, this text argues, have endured centuries of poverty and exploitation. It contends that the brief burst of prosperity that followed their entry into the Canadian federation has now foundered in the present economic recession and the collapse of the fishery, and that life in Newfoundland has returned to what it has always been - a struggle for survival in a harsh environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bay St. George in western Newfoundland is a region characterized by a boom and bust economy and shaped by the establishment of the Earnest Harmon American Airforce Base. This ethnography explores how women at the Bay St. George Women's Council deal specifically with the issues of single motherhood, child sexual abuse, and domestic violence, and examines the interplay of feminist and Newfoundland identification among these individuals. Drawing on 14 months of participant observation and interviews with women at the Council, George provides a much needed, specifically Canadian contribution to ethno-cultural studies, grass-roots activism, and feminist studies. The research successfully situates the particular concerns and political activism of these women in this rural region of Canada within the larger context of economic restructuring and neoliberal economic and social policies that continue to marginalize women in Canada and around the world. This important study continues the work of feminist ethnographies by such scholars as: Abu-Lughod, Behar, Cole, DiLeonardo, Ginsburg, and Lowenhaupt-Tsing. Avoiding the all too common pitfall of folkorization in rural studies, The Rock Where We Stand represents an innovative and experimental contribution to the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While trade had slowed during the Second World War and the overruling Britain had suffered from the Sterling Crisis, the end of the war in 1945 and the full- convertibility of sterling arranged in 1947 meant an expansion of Newfoundland's fish market. [...] The history of women's work in Newfoundland and Labrador highlights how important women were to the sustenance of the family, and how these skills became devalued throughout the 20th Century. [...] While Murray (1979) found women were "more than 50%" of the labour force in Elliston in the 1950s, the Canadian Census of 1951 stated only 16% of women in Newfoundland and Labrador participated in the labour market (Statistics Canada, 1965: Table 1). [...] The Gender Wage Gap Women's traditional role as homemaker and their gradual introduction into the workforce is a common story across North America and the history of women's labour market participation in Newfoundland and Labrador has parallels with the history of women across the country. [...] Mulligan and Rubinstein (2008) found that the change in the composition of the female workforce, due to increased human capital investment, labour force attachment and women's self-selection into the labour force, from the late 1970s to the late 1990s, is responsible for women's relative wage growth.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Living on the edge" implies insecurity. On the surface, the people of the Great Northern Peninsula must be marginal Canadians for they live in an isolated area where incomes are low and unemployment high. So why do people stay? How do they cope with life on the margins of an advanced industrial society? The editors and the contributing anthropologists and sociologists try to answer these questions by looking at key attitudes and aspects of the social structure. In addition to analysis of the area's economic base in the fishery, this book deals with the informal economy, the division of labour in households, women's local political action, youth unemployment, and the complex and enduring strategies through which residents not only survive in this harsh environment, but create a relatively satisfying lifestyle.
