The White Man's Gonna Getcha: The Colonial Challenge to the Crees in Quebec (Volume 30) (McGillQueen's Indigenous and Northern ,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Morantz shows that with the imposition of administration from the south the Crees had to confront a new set of foreigners whose ideas and plans were very different from those of the fur traders. In the 1930s and 1940s government intervention helped overcome the disastrous disappearance of the beaver through the creation of governmentdecreed preserves and a ban on beaver hunting, but beginning in the 1950s a revolving array of socioeconomic programs instituted by the government brought the adverse effects of what Morantz calls bureaucratic colonialism. Drawing heavily on oral testimonies recorded by anthropologists in addition to eyewitness and archival sources, Morantz incorporates the Crees' own views, interests, and responses. She shows how their strong ties to the land and their appreciation of the wisdom of their way of life, coupled with the ineptness and excessive frugality of the Canadian bureaucracy, allowed them to escape the worst effects of colonialism. Despite becoming increasingly politically and economically dominated by Canadian society, the Crees succeeded in staving off cultural subjugation. They were able to face the massive hydroelectric development of the 1970s with their language, practices, and values intact and succeeded in negotiating a modern treaty. This detailed portrait of twentiethcentury Canadian colonialism will be of interest to native studies specialists, anthropologists, and political scientists generally.
