Canadian social rights
« on: August 13, 2003, 12:42:17 PM »

If there are any Canadians interested in the rise and fall of social rights in our country, I wrote a short paper for one of my courses (at Carleton U). Its a critique of a history of Canadian social rights by political scientist, Janine Brodie of Calgary U (if I'm not mistaken). Although certain details can only be fully understood if you've read Brodie's article, my critique is still understandable. I also mention TH Marshall's citizenship theory, too.

In my piece, I introduce Marxist class analysis to explain the rise of Canadian social rights in the 1930/40s and their decline in the 1970s onwards. I contrast this with the rise of human rights (mostly civil) in a global context. If you have any comments, let me know at djnesbit@connect.carleton.ca
