Jocelyn Maclure provides a critical reflection on the ways in which Quebec's identity has been articulated since the 1960s' Quiet Revolution. He shows how neither the melancholic nationalism of the Montreal school, Hubert Aquin, Pierre Valli res, Fernand Dumont and their followers, nor the individualist anti-nationalism of Pierre Trudeau and his followers provide identity stories and political projects adequate for contemporary Quebec. 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."

DIVCanada is situated geographically, historically, and culturally between old empires (Great Britain and France) and a more recent one (the United States), as well as on the terrain of First Nations communities. Poised between historical and metaphorical empires and operating within the conditions of incomplete modernity and economic and cultural dependency, Canada has generated a body of cultural criticism and theory, which offers unique insights into the dynamics of both center and periphery. The reader brings together for the first time in one volume recent writing in Canadian cultural studies and work by significant Canadian cultural analysts of the postwar era. Including essays by anglophone, francophone, and First Nations writers, the reader is divided into three parts, the first of which features essays by scholars who helped set the agenda for cultural and social analysis in Canada and remain important to contemporary intellectual formations: Harold Innis, Marshall McLuhan, and Anthony Wilden in communications theory; Northrop Frye in literary studies; George Grant and Harold Innis in a left-nationalist tradition of critical political economy; Fernand Dumont and Paul-Émile Borduas in Quebecois national and political culture; and Harold Cardinal in native studies. The volume’s second section showcases work in which contemporary authors address Canada’s problematic and incomplete nationalism; race, difference, and multiculturalism; and modernity and contemporary culture. The final section includes excerpts from federal policy documents that are especially important to Canadians’ conceptions of their social, political, and cultural circumstances. The reader opens with a foreword by Fredric Jameson and concludes with an afterword in which the Quebecois scholar Yves Laberge explores the differences between English-Canadian cultural studies and the prevailing forms of cultural analysis in francophone Canada.

In response to rapid and unsettling social, economic, and climate changes, fearmongering now features as a main component of public life. Right-wing nationalist populism has become a hallmark of politics around the world. No less so in Quebec. Alexa Conradi has made it her life’s work to understand and to generate thoughtful debate about this worrisome trend. As the first President of Québec solidaire and the president of Canada’s largest feminist organisation, the Fédération des femmes du Québec, Conradi refused to shy away from difficult issues: the Charter of Quebec Values, religion and Islam, sovereignty, rape culture and violence against women, extractive industries and the treatment of Indigenous women, austerity policy and the growing gap between rich and poor. This determination to address uncomfortable subjects has made Conradi—an anglo-Montrealer—a sometimes controversial leader. In Fear, Love, and Liberation in Contemporary Quebec, Conradi invites us to take off our rose-coloured glasses and to examine Quebec’s treatment of women with more honesty. Through her personal reflections on Quebec politics and culture, she dispels the myth that gender equality has been achieved and paves the way for a more critical understanding of what remains to be done.

Please Kill Me written by Legs McNeil and has been published by Editions Allia this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2006 with Punk culture categories.
Please Kill Me est le fruit (vénéneux) de centaines d'heures d'entretiens avec ceux qui ont animé l'un des mouvements culturels et musicaux les plus détonants de la fin du vingtième siècle : le punk-rock américain. Réalisé sous forme de montage nerveux, extrêmement vivant et souvent impitoyablement drôle ou tragique, ce livre dans lequel les voix se répondent rarement pour s'accorder nous offre une plongée incroyable dans la vie quotidienne pleine de bruit et de fureur, de drogues, de catastrophes, de sexe et de poésie (parfois) du Velvet Underground, des Stooges d'Iggy Pop, du MC5, des New York Dolls et des Heartbreakers de Johnny Thunders, de Patti Smith, de Television, des Ramones, de Blondie et de dizaines d'autres. Avec leur gouaille et leur verve redoutables ou leur humour pince-sans-rire, les acteurs ressuscitent pour nous les anecdotes les plus délirantes des différentes époques de leur vie, font revivre ces personnages attachants et/ou détestables (avec des scènes d'anthologie à tous les chapitres), à tel point qu'on a l'impression de partager avec eux ce quotidien insensé de galères en tout genre, qu'on étouffe de rire à l'évocation des frasques d'Iggy Pop déchaîné ou d'un impayable Dee Dee Ramone ; ou qu'on ravale ses larmes à celle de la fin calamiteuse d'un Johnny Thunders ou d'un Jerry Nolan. L'enchaînement irrévérencieux des points de vue provoque des effets comiques souvent irrésistibles, puisqu'ici, comme l'indique le sous-titre, aucune censure n'a cours les amitiés indéfectibles côtoient les antipathies persistantes et les amours explosives (Connie et Dee Dee, Sid et Nancy). Personne ne semble pourtant avoir la moindre honte à dévoiler ce qui fut bien souvent un mode de vie extrême, disons extrêmement rock'n'roll, moins centré sur l'image que le punk anglais et dédié avant tout à une certaine forme d'innocence paradoxale, refusant aussi bien les idéaux peace and love éculés des années 60 que la culture de l'argent roi qui se profilait avec l'arrivée des années 80. Mais cette innocence verse un lourd tribut à ses excès (overdoses, coups de couteau, prostitution) et manipule la dérision comme une arme de destruction massive. Please Kill Me se lit comme un roman à plusieurs voix, rapide à couper le souffle comme une chanson des Ramones.
