WIN 324 - Quebec Nationalism & the Crisis of Canad

Institution:

Franklin College - Indiana

Subject:

Description:

In recent decades the relationship between English-speaking Canada and the French-speaking Canadian province of Quebec has been a troubled one. In a referendum held in Quebec in 1995 nearly one-half of the voters opted for the creation of a sovereign Quebec nation state. The current Québec government remains committed to bringing about sovereignty and another referendum looms on the horizon. It is the purpose of this course to examine the relationship between Quebec and the rest of Canada and to explain the continued popularity of the sovereigntist option. The course will introduce students to the social science literature on nationalism in general and Quebec separatist nationalism in particular. It will illuminate the historical background for the current crisis in Quebec-Canada relations and trace recent attempts to bring the crisis to a solution. Prerequisite: None Fees: None
