"L'objet principal du présent ouvrage est de susciter la réflexion au sujet de l'aménagement linguistique tel qu'il a été vécu au Nouveau-Brunswick, seule province officiellement bilingue au Canada. L'auteur cherche à mettre en lumière l'effectivité des droits linguistiques ainsi que le rôle qu'exercent le législateur et les tribunaux en ce domaine. En outre, il fait ressortir la nécessité de l'action en justice afin de faire respecter des droits qui sont de nature constitutionnelle et quasi constitutionnelle".--Résumé de l'éditeur

A History of Law in Canada is an important [anticipated] three-volume project. Volume One begins at a time just prior to European contact and continues to the 1860s, Volume Two covers the half century after Confederation, and Volume Three will cover the period from the beginning of the First World War to 1982, with a postscript taking the account to approximately 2000.The history of law includes substantive law, legal institutions, legal actors, and legal culture. The authors assume that since 1500 there have been three legal systems in Canada – the Indigenous, the French, and the English. At all times, these systems have co-existed and interacted, with the relative power and influence of each being more or less dominant in different periods. The history of law cannot be treated in isolation, and this book examines law as a dynamic process, shaped by and affecting other histories over the long term. The law guided and was guided by economic developments, was influenced and moulded by the nature and trajectory of political ideas and institutions, and variously exacerbated or mediated intercultural exchange and conflict. These themes are apparent in this examination, and through most areas of law including land settlement and tenure, and family, commercial, constitutional, and criminal law. -- Adapted from publisher's description.

"Margaret Conrad's history of Canada begins with a challenge to its readers. What is Canada? What makes up this diverse, complex, and often contested nation-state? What was its founding moment? And who are its people? Drawing on her many years of experience as a scholar, writer, and teacher of Canadian history, Conrad offers astute answers to these difficult questions. Beginning in Canada's deep past with the arrival of its Indigenous peoples, she traces its history through the conquest by Europeans, the American Revolutionary War, and the industrialization of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, to its prosperous present. As a social historian, Conrad emphasizes the peoples' history: the relationships between Indigenous peoples and settlers, French and English, Catholic and Protestant, rich and poor. She writes of the impact of disease, how women fared in the early colonies, and the social transformations that took place after the Second World War as Canada began to assert itself as an independent nation. It is this grounded approach that drives the narrative and makes for compelling reading. In its final chapters, the author explains the social, economic, and political upheavals that have bedeviled the nation in recent years. Despite its successes and its popularity as a destination for immigrants from across the world, Canada remains a cautious and contested country. This intelligent, concise, and lucid book explains just why that is"-- Provided by publisher.

"The aim of this text is to provide a revealing background to the law of torts for its better understanding and appreciation by those who find themselves somewhat confused as to the true nature and scope of this part of the law and would like some clarification. This book consists of a number of independent essays that raise and discuss ideas which permeate the modern content and function of the law of torts. They also provide an historical context that allows the reader to better understand tort law concepts. Their purpose is to stimulate the interest of the read and encourage them to dive further into this area of the law. As such, this text is broader in scope than a standard primer of the law of torts express in simple language."-- Provided by publisher.
