Power & Resistance: Critical Thinking About Canadian Social Issues

by Les Samuelson (Editor), Wayne Antony (Editor)

Examining at a wide range of issues such as violence, poverty, feminism, racism, and privatization of healthcare, the Contributors to this collection use a variety of analytical approaches to posit that the social, economic, and political issues confronting Canadians are shaped by social inequity. At the same time, these essays show how these inequalities are being successfully resisted individually and collectively. This fourth edition adds chapters on youth politics, higher education, technology and work, and immigration.
