French and English Canadians in "Milltown" : A Pilot Study of the Organizational and Interactional Aspects of a Bicultural and Bilingual Town

Dissertation analyzing the social dynamics of an Ontario "pulp and paper town" with significant French- and English-heritage populations. A comparative sociological study in how ethnicity impacts community structures and interrelations in Canada. How the phenomena of dual social organizations divided along ethnic lines relate to industry, town economics, and politics. Comments on observable forms of inter-communal relations and the status of inter-ethnic interaction in the studied town. Presents a local case in a national, Canadian context, with reference to notions of acculturation and histories of group conflict. From the author: "The argument is that interethnic relations can be considered from the perspective of social organization and/or interorganizational relations because the characteristics of organized ethnic collectivities are crucial to the understanding of intergroup relations" (iii).
