What is Canadian dualism : studies of French-English relations = La dualité canadienne : essais sur les relations entre canadiens français et canadiens anglais about?
<P>The purpose of this book is to analyse and interpret the present state of biculturalism in Canada. It examines the way in which English-speaking and French-speaking Canadians behave toward each other as parts of the same national whole, and the way in which the ideas of one group have been affected by those of the other. The underlying assumption of these studies is that these two groups constitute the foundation of the Canadian nation, and that the behaviour of each can only be understood in the context of its relationship with the other. The basic question raised in these studies is whether there has been communication, adjustment, and co-operation between the two cultural groups, or misunderstanding, friction, and conflict. Inevitability, since Canada has been created on the basis of compromises, the answers do not fall neatly into either category, but partly under both. This book is intended to shed some light on the questions “what is Canada?” and “How much have English-speaking Canadians and French-speaking Canadians contributed to the Canadian whole?”</P> <P>Contributors include: G.V. Ferguson, Jean-C. Falardeau, Watson Kirkconnell, Louis-M. Regis, F.R. Scott, Louis Baudo
