About this product
Product Information
How work in Canada in its many and varied forms has changed over time. Work is an essential part of the human experience and has been performed in Canada from the pre-Colonial period to the present day. Work developed in different forms over time and was shaped by a wide array of influences, including gender, race, ethnicity, geography, economics, and politics. The experience of working in Canada shares features found in all societies, but with its own unique twist. Canada, A Working History argues that there are key themes found in the history of work in Canada that persist to the present day.

An excellent resource, especially for popular readers or as a textbook for early-year undergraduate courses, Canada: A Working History uses changing conceptions of work, working-class experiences, and moments of class-based resistance to illustrate how these factors have shaped and influenced our readings of the country's past., Balanced, informative, and insightful, Jason Russell's Canada: A Working History , provides a comprehensive and compelling survey of the contours of work in Canada from before the colonialist period to the COVID-19 pandemic. The scope and depth of Russell's work provides anyone interested in understanding the evolution of work in Canada with a narrative that captures the tremendous historical challenges and accomplishments of working Canadians. Accessibly written at a crisp pace and with an engaging style, Canada: A Working History , helps 21st Century Canadians understand the roots of working people's current predicaments and possibilities -- from deindustrialization and precarity to revitalized worker activism and renewed optimism about the future of work in Canada.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
