Working People in Alberta traces the history of labour in Alberta from the period of First Nations occupation to the present Drawing on over two hundred interviews with labour leaders activists and ordinary working people as well as on archival records the volume gives voice to the people who have toiled in Alberta over the centuries In so doing it seeks to counter the view of Alberta as a one-class one-party one-ideology province in which distinctions between those who work and those who own are irrelevant Workers from across the generations tell another tale of an ongoing collective struggle to improve their economic and social circumstances in the face of a dominant exploitative elite Their stories are set within a sequential analysis of provincial politics and economics supplemented by chapters on women and the labour movement and on minority workers of colour and their quest for social justice

Published on the occasion of the 100th anniver-sary of the Alberta Federation of Labour Working People in Alberta contrasts the stories of workers who were union members and those who were not In its depictions of union organizing drives strikes and working-class life in cities and towns this lavishly illustrated volume creates a composite portrait of the men and women who have worked to build and sustain the province of Alberta

Our UnionUAWCAW Local 27 from 1950 to 1990

Jason Russell

The post-war period witnessed dramatic changes in the lives of working-class families Wages rose working hours were reduced pension plans and state social security measures offered greater protection against unemploy-ment illness and old age the standard of living improved and women and members of immigrant communities entered the labour market in growing numbers Existing studies of the post-war period have focused above all on unions at the national and international levels on the ldquopost-war settlementrdquo including the impact of Fordism and on the chiefly economic issues surrounding collective bargaining while relatively scant attention has been paid to the role of the union local in daily working-class experience

In Our Union Jason Russell argues that the union local as an institution of working-class organization was a key agent for the Canadian working class as it sought to create a new place for itself in the decades following World War II Using UAWCAW Local 27 a broad-based union in London Ontario as a case study he offers a ground-level look at union membership including some of the social and political agendas that informed union activities As he writes in the introduction ldquoThis book is as much an outgrowth of years of rank-and-file union activism as it is the result of academic curiosityrdquo Drawing on interviews with former members of UAWCAW Local 27 as well as on archival sources Russell offers a narrative that will speak not only to labour historians but to the people about whom they write

Jason Russell is assistant professor of labour studies at Empire State College State University of New York

Controlling KnowledgeFreedom of Information and Privacy Protection in a Networked World

Lorna Stefanick

Digital communications technology has immeasurably enhanced our capacity to store retrieve and exchange information But who controls our access to information and who decides what others have a right to know about us In Controlling Knowledge author Lorna Stefanick offers a thought-provoking and user-friendly overview of the regulatory regime that currently governs freedom of information and the protection of privacy

Aiming to clarify rather than mystify Stefanick out-lines the history and application of FOIP legislation with special focus on how these laws affect the individual To illustrate the impact of FOIP she examines the notion of informed consent looks at concerns about surveillance in the digital age and explores the sometimes insidious influence of Facebook Specialists in public policy and public administration information technology com-munications law criminal justice sociology and health care will find much here that bears directly on their work while students and general readers will welcome the bookrsquos down-to-earth language and accessible style

Intended to serve as a ldquocitizenrsquos guiderdquo Controlling Knowledge is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand how freedom of information and privacy protection are legally defined and how this legislation is shaping our individual rights as citizens of the informa-tion age

Lorna Stefanick is an associate professor in the Governance Law and Management program in the Centre for State and Legal Studies at Athabasca University

Selves and SubjectivitiesReflections on Canadian Arts and Culture

edited by Manijeh Mannani and Veronica Thompson

Long a topic of intricate political and social debate Canadian identity has come to be understood as fragmented amorphous and unstable a multifaceted and contested space only tenuously linked to traditional concepts of the nation As Canadians we are endlessly defining ourselves seeking to locate our sense of self in relation to some Other By examining how writers and performers have conceptualized and negotiated issues of personal identity in their work the essays collected in Selves and Subjectivities investigate emerging representa-tions of self and other in contemporary Canadian arts and culture Included are essays on iconic poet and musi-cian Leonard Cohen Governor General awardndashwinning playwright Colleen Wagner feminist poet and novelist Daphne Marlatt film director David Cronenberg poet and writer Heacutedi Bouraoui author and media scholar Marusya Bociurkiw puppeteer Ronnie Burkett and the Aboriginal rap group War Party

As critic Diana Brydon has argued contemporary Can-adian writers are ldquonot transcending nation but resituating itrdquo Drawing together themes of gender and sexuality trauma and displacement performati vity and linguistic diversity Selves and Subjectivities offers an exciting new contribution to the multivocal dialogue surrounding the Canadian sense of identity

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Amer-European settlement of the Great Plains transformed bountiful Native soil into pasture and cropland distorting the prairie ecosystem as it was understood and used by the peoples who originally populated the land Settlers justified this transformation with the unexamined premise of deficiency according to which the Great Plains region was inadequate in flora and fauna and the region lacking in modern civilization Drawing on history sociology art and economic theory Kaye counters the argument of deficiency pointing out that in its original ecological state no region can possibly be incomplete

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

Working People in Alberta traces the history of labour in Alberta from the period of First Nations occupation to the present Drawing on over two hundred interviews with labour leaders activists and ordinary working people as well as on archival records the volume gives voice to the people who have toiled in Alberta over the centuries In so doing it seeks to counter the view of Alberta as a one-class one-party one-ideology province in which distinctions between those who work and those who own are irrelevant Workers from across the generations tell another tale of an ongoing collective struggle to improve their economic and social circumstances in the face of a dominant exploitative elite Their stories are set within a sequential analysis of provincial politics and economics supplemented by chapters on women and the labour movement and on minority workers of colour and their quest for social justice

Published on the occasion of the 100th anniver-sary of the Alberta Federation of Labour Working People in Alberta contrasts the stories of workers who were union members and those who were not In its depictions of union organizing drives strikes and working-class life in cities and towns this lavishly illustrated volume creates a composite portrait of the men and women who have worked to build and sustain the province of Alberta

Our UnionUAWCAW Local 27 from 1950 to 1990

Jason Russell

The post-war period witnessed dramatic changes in the lives of working-class families Wages rose working hours were reduced pension plans and state social security measures offered greater protection against unemploy-ment illness and old age the standard of living improved and women and members of immigrant communities entered the labour market in growing numbers Existing studies of the post-war period have focused above all on unions at the national and international levels on the ldquopost-war settlementrdquo including the impact of Fordism and on the chiefly economic issues surrounding collective bargaining while relatively scant attention has been paid to the role of the union local in daily working-class experience

In Our Union Jason Russell argues that the union local as an institution of working-class organization was a key agent for the Canadian working class as it sought to create a new place for itself in the decades following World War II Using UAWCAW Local 27 a broad-based union in London Ontario as a case study he offers a ground-level look at union membership including some of the social and political agendas that informed union activities As he writes in the introduction ldquoThis book is as much an outgrowth of years of rank-and-file union activism as it is the result of academic curiosityrdquo Drawing on interviews with former members of UAWCAW Local 27 as well as on archival sources Russell offers a narrative that will speak not only to labour historians but to the people about whom they write

Controlling KnowledgeFreedom of Information and Privacy Protection in a Networked World

Lorna Stefanick

Digital communications technology has immeasurably enhanced our capacity to store retrieve and exchange information But who controls our access to information and who decides what others have a right to know about us In Controlling Knowledge author Lorna Stefanick offers a thought-provoking and user-friendly overview of the regulatory regime that currently governs freedom of information and the protection of privacy

Aiming to clarify rather than mystify Stefanick out-lines the history and application of FOIP legislation with special focus on how these laws affect the individual To illustrate the impact of FOIP she examines the notion of informed consent looks at concerns about surveillance in the digital age and explores the sometimes insidious influence of Facebook Specialists in public policy and public administration information technology com-munications law criminal justice sociology and health care will find much here that bears directly on their work while students and general readers will welcome the bookrsquos down-to-earth language and accessible style

Intended to serve as a ldquocitizenrsquos guiderdquo Controlling Knowledge is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand how freedom of information and privacy protection are legally defined and how this legislation is shaping our individual rights as citizens of the informa-tion age

Selves and SubjectivitiesReflections on Canadian Arts and Culture

edited by Manijeh Mannani and Veronica Thompson

Long a topic of intricate political and social debate Canadian identity has come to be understood as fragmented amorphous and unstable a multifaceted and contested space only tenuously linked to traditional concepts of the nation As Canadians we are endlessly defining ourselves seeking to locate our sense of self in relation to some Other By examining how writers and performers have conceptualized and negotiated issues of personal identity in their work the essays collected in Selves and Subjectivities investigate emerging representa-tions of self and other in contemporary Canadian arts and culture Included are essays on iconic poet and musi-cian Leonard Cohen Governor General awardndashwinning playwright Colleen Wagner feminist poet and novelist Daphne Marlatt film director David Cronenberg poet and writer Heacutedi Bouraoui author and media scholar Marusya Bociurkiw puppeteer Ronnie Burkett and the Aboriginal rap group War Party

As critic Diana Brydon has argued contemporary Can-adian writers are ldquonot transcending nation but resituating itrdquo Drawing together themes of gender and sexuality trauma and displacement performati vity and linguistic diversity Selves and Subjectivities offers an exciting new contribution to the multivocal dialogue surrounding the Canadian sense of identity

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

Working People in Alberta traces the history of labour in Alberta from the period of First Nations occupation to the present Drawing on over two hundred interviews with labour leaders activists and ordinary working people as well as on archival records the volume gives voice to the people who have toiled in Alberta over the centuries In so doing it seeks to counter the view of Alberta as a one-class one-party one-ideology province in which distinctions between those who work and those who own are irrelevant Workers from across the generations tell another tale of an ongoing collective struggle to improve their economic and social circumstances in the face of a dominant exploitative elite Their stories are set within a sequential analysis of provincial politics and economics supplemented by chapters on women and the labour movement and on minority workers of colour and their quest for social justice

Published on the occasion of the 100th anniver-sary of the Alberta Federation of Labour Working People in Alberta contrasts the stories of workers who were union members and those who were not In its depictions of union organizing drives strikes and working-class life in cities and towns this lavishly illustrated volume creates a composite portrait of the men and women who have worked to build and sustain the province of Alberta

Working People in AlbertaA History

Our UnionUAWCAW Local 27 from 1950 to 1990

Jason Russell

The post-war period witnessed dramatic changes in the lives of working-class families Wages rose working hours were reduced pension plans and state social security measures offered greater protection against unemploy-ment illness and old age the standard of living improved and women and members of immigrant communities entered the labour market in growing numbers Existing studies of the post-war period have focused above all on unions at the national and international levels on the ldquopost-war settlementrdquo including the impact of Fordism and on the chiefly economic issues surrounding collective bargaining while relatively scant attention has been paid to the role of the union local in daily working-class experience

In Our Union Jason Russell argues that the union local as an institution of working-class organization was a key agent for the Canadian working class as it sought to create a new place for itself in the decades following World War II Using UAWCAW Local 27 a broad-based union in London Ontario as a case study he offers a ground-level look at union membership including some of the social and political agendas that informed union activities As he writes in the introduction ldquoThis book is as much an outgrowth of years of rank-and-file union activism as it is the result of academic curiosityrdquo Drawing on interviews with former members of UAWCAW Local 27 as well as on archival sources Russell offers a narrative that will speak not only to labour historians but to the people about whom they write

Jason Russell is assistant professor of labour studies at Empire State College State University of New York

Controlling KnowledgeFreedom of Information and Privacy Protection in a Networked World

Lorna Stefanick

Digital communications technology has immeasurably enhanced our capacity to store retrieve and exchange information But who controls our access to information and who decides what others have a right to know about us In Controlling Knowledge author Lorna Stefanick offers a thought-provoking and user-friendly overview of the regulatory regime that currently governs freedom of information and the protection of privacy

Aiming to clarify rather than mystify Stefanick out-lines the history and application of FOIP legislation with special focus on how these laws affect the individual To illustrate the impact of FOIP she examines the notion of informed consent looks at concerns about surveillance in the digital age and explores the sometimes insidious influence of Facebook Specialists in public policy and public administration information technology com-munications law criminal justice sociology and health care will find much here that bears directly on their work while students and general readers will welcome the bookrsquos down-to-earth language and accessible style

Intended to serve as a ldquocitizenrsquos guiderdquo Controlling Knowledge is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand how freedom of information and privacy protection are legally defined and how this legislation is shaping our individual rights as citizens of the informa-tion age

Lorna Stefanick is an associate professor in the Governance Law and Management program in the Centre for State and Legal Studies at Athabasca University

Selves and SubjectivitiesReflections on Canadian Arts and Culture

edited by Manijeh Mannani and Veronica Thompson

Long a topic of intricate political and social debate Canadian identity has come to be understood as fragmented amorphous and unstable a multifaceted and contested space only tenuously linked to traditional concepts of the nation As Canadians we are endlessly defining ourselves seeking to locate our sense of self in relation to some Other By examining how writers and performers have conceptualized and negotiated issues of personal identity in their work the essays collected in Selves and Subjectivities investigate emerging representa-tions of self and other in contemporary Canadian arts and culture Included are essays on iconic poet and musi-cian Leonard Cohen Governor General awardndashwinning playwright Colleen Wagner feminist poet and novelist Daphne Marlatt film director David Cronenberg poet and writer Heacutedi Bouraoui author and media scholar Marusya Bociurkiw puppeteer Ronnie Burkett and the Aboriginal rap group War Party

As critic Diana Brydon has argued contemporary Can-adian writers are ldquonot transcending nation but resituating itrdquo Drawing together themes of gender and sexuality trauma and displacement performati vity and linguistic diversity Selves and Subjectivities offers an exciting new contribution to the multivocal dialogue surrounding the Canadian sense of identity

Manijeh Mannani is associate professor of English and comparative literature at Athabasca University and adjunct professor of comparative literature at the University of Alberta

With a foreword by Aboriginal rights activist Lewis Cardinal A Metaphoric Mind brings together for the first time key works selected from among Dr Joersquos writings published and unpub-lished Spanning nearly thirty years the essays invite us to share in his transformative legacy through a series of encounters with Aboriginal spirituality and ancestral ways of knowing with Elders and their teachings with education and its role in politicization self-determination and social change and with the restorative process and the meaning of Native healing

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

A collection of poetry that plays with language and wit

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

Working People in Alberta traces the history of labour in Alberta from the period of First Nations occupation to the present Drawing on over two hundred interviews with labour leaders activists and ordinary working people as well as on archival records the volume gives voice to the people who have toiled in Alberta over the centuries In so doing it seeks to counter the view of Alberta as a one-class one-party one-ideology province in which distinctions between those who work and those who own are irrelevant Workers from across the generations tell another tale of an ongoing collective struggle to improve their economic and social circumstances in the face of a dominant exploitative elite Their stories are set within a sequential analysis of provincial politics and economics supplemented by chapters on women and the labour movement and on minority workers of colour and their quest for social justice

Published on the occasion of the 100th anniver-sary of the Alberta Federation of Labour Working People in Alberta contrasts the stories of workers who were union members and those who were not In its depictions of union organizing drives strikes and working-class life in cities and towns this lavishly illustrated volume creates a composite portrait of the men and women who have worked to build and sustain the province of Alberta

Our UnionUAWCAW Local 27 from 1950 to 1990

Jason Russell

The post-war period witnessed dramatic changes in the lives of working-class families Wages rose working hours were reduced pension plans and state social security measures offered greater protection against unemploy-ment illness and old age the standard of living improved and women and members of immigrant communities entered the labour market in growing numbers Existing studies of the post-war period have focused above all on unions at the national and international levels on the ldquopost-war settlementrdquo including the impact of Fordism and on the chiefly economic issues surrounding collective bargaining while relatively scant attention has been paid to the role of the union local in daily working-class experience

In Our Union Jason Russell argues that the union local as an institution of working-class organization was a key agent for the Canadian working class as it sought to create a new place for itself in the decades following World War II Using UAWCAW Local 27 a broad-based union in London Ontario as a case study he offers a ground-level look at union membership including some of the social and political agendas that informed union activities As he writes in the introduction ldquoThis book is as much an outgrowth of years of rank-and-file union activism as it is the result of academic curiosityrdquo Drawing on interviews with former members of UAWCAW Local 27 as well as on archival sources Russell offers a narrative that will speak not only to labour historians but to the people about whom they write

Jason Russell is assistant professor of labour studies at Empire State College State University of New York

Controlling KnowledgeFreedom of Information and Privacy Protection in a Networked World

Lorna Stefanick

Digital communications technology has immeasurably enhanced our capacity to store retrieve and exchange information But who controls our access to information and who decides what others have a right to know about us In Controlling Knowledge author Lorna Stefanick offers a thought-provoking and user-friendly overview of the regulatory regime that currently governs freedom of information and the protection of privacy

Aiming to clarify rather than mystify Stefanick out-lines the history and application of FOIP legislation with special focus on how these laws affect the individual To illustrate the impact of FOIP she examines the notion of informed consent looks at concerns about surveillance in the digital age and explores the sometimes insidious influence of Facebook Specialists in public policy and public administration information technology com-munications law criminal justice sociology and health care will find much here that bears directly on their work while students and general readers will welcome the bookrsquos down-to-earth language and accessible style

Intended to serve as a ldquocitizenrsquos guiderdquo Controlling Knowledge is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand how freedom of information and privacy protection are legally defined and how this legislation is shaping our individual rights as citizens of the informa-tion age

Lorna Stefanick is an associate professor in the Governance Law and Management program in the Centre for State and Legal Studies at Athabasca University

Selves and SubjectivitiesReflections on Canadian Arts and Culture

edited by Manijeh Mannani and Veronica Thompson

Long a topic of intricate political and social debate Canadian identity has come to be understood as fragmented amorphous and unstable a multifaceted and contested space only tenuously linked to traditional concepts of the nation As Canadians we are endlessly defining ourselves seeking to locate our sense of self in relation to some Other By examining how writers and performers have conceptualized and negotiated issues of personal identity in their work the essays collected in Selves and Subjectivities investigate emerging representa-tions of self and other in contemporary Canadian arts and culture Included are essays on iconic poet and musi-cian Leonard Cohen Governor General awardndashwinning playwright Colleen Wagner feminist poet and novelist Daphne Marlatt film director David Cronenberg poet and writer Heacutedi Bouraoui author and media scholar Marusya Bociurkiw puppeteer Ronnie Burkett and the Aboriginal rap group War Party

As critic Diana Brydon has argued contemporary Can-adian writers are ldquonot transcending nation but resituating itrdquo Drawing together themes of gender and sexuality trauma and displacement performati vity and linguistic diversity Selves and Subjectivities offers an exciting new contribution to the multivocal dialogue surrounding the Canadian sense of identity

Dr Joseph Couture (1930ndash2007) known affectionately as ldquoDr Joerdquo stood at the centre of some of the greatest political social and intellectual struggles of Aboriginal peoples in contemporary Canada A profound thinker and writer as well as a gifted orator he easily walked two paths as a respected Elder and traditional healer and as an educational psychologist one of the first Aborig-inal people in Canada to receive a PhD His work challenged and transformed long-held views of Canadarsquos Indigenous peoples and his vision and leadership gave direction to many of the current fields of Aboriginal scholarship His influence extended into numerous areasmdasheducation addictions and mental health treat-ment community development restorative justice and federal correctional programming for Aboriginal peoples

With a foreword by Aboriginal rights activist Lewis Cardinal A Metaphoric Mind brings together for the first time key works selected from among Dr Joersquos writings published and unpub-lished Spanning nearly thirty years the essays invite us to share in his transformative legacy through a series of encounters with Aboriginal spirituality and ancestral ways of knowing with Elders and their teachings with education and its role in politicization self-determination and social change and with the restorative process and the meaning of Native healing

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Amer-European settlement of the Great Plains transformed bountiful Native soil into pasture and cropland distorting the prairie ecosystem as it was understood and used by the peoples who originally populated the land Settlers justified this transformation with the unexamined premise of deficiency according to which the Great Plains region was inadequate in flora and fauna and the region lacking in modern civilization Drawing on history sociology art and economic theory Kaye counters the argument of deficiency pointing out that in its original ecological state no region can possibly be incomplete

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

Our UnionUAWCAW Local 27 from 1950 to 1990

Jason Russell

The post-war period witnessed dramatic changes in the lives of working-class families Wages rose working hours were reduced pension plans and state social security measures offered greater protection against unemploy-ment illness and old age the standard of living improved and women and members of immigrant communities entered the labour market in growing numbers Existing studies of the post-war period have focused above all on unions at the national and international levels on the ldquopost-war settlementrdquo including the impact of Fordism and on the chiefly economic issues surrounding collective bargaining while relatively scant attention has been paid to the role of the union local in daily working-class experience

In Our Union Jason Russell argues that the union local as an institution of working-class organization was a key agent for the Canadian working class as it sought to create a new place for itself in the decades following World War II Using UAWCAW Local 27 a broad-based union in London Ontario as a case study he offers a ground-level look at union membership including some of the social and political agendas that informed union activities As he writes in the introduction ldquoThis book is as much an outgrowth of years of rank-and-file union activism as it is the result of academic curiosityrdquo Drawing on interviews with former members of UAWCAW Local 27 as well as on archival sources Russell offers a narrative that will speak not only to labour historians but to the people about whom they write

Controlling KnowledgeFreedom of Information and Privacy Protection in a Networked World

Lorna Stefanick

Digital communications technology has immeasurably enhanced our capacity to store retrieve and exchange information But who controls our access to information and who decides what others have a right to know about us In Controlling Knowledge author Lorna Stefanick offers a thought-provoking and user-friendly overview of the regulatory regime that currently governs freedom of information and the protection of privacy

Aiming to clarify rather than mystify Stefanick out-lines the history and application of FOIP legislation with special focus on how these laws affect the individual To illustrate the impact of FOIP she examines the notion of informed consent looks at concerns about surveillance in the digital age and explores the sometimes insidious influence of Facebook Specialists in public policy and public administration information technology com-munications law criminal justice sociology and health care will find much here that bears directly on their work while students and general readers will welcome the bookrsquos down-to-earth language and accessible style

Intended to serve as a ldquocitizenrsquos guiderdquo Controlling Knowledge is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand how freedom of information and privacy protection are legally defined and how this legislation is shaping our individual rights as citizens of the informa-tion age

Selves and SubjectivitiesReflections on Canadian Arts and Culture

edited by Manijeh Mannani and Veronica Thompson

Long a topic of intricate political and social debate Canadian identity has come to be understood as fragmented amorphous and unstable a multifaceted and contested space only tenuously linked to traditional concepts of the nation As Canadians we are endlessly defining ourselves seeking to locate our sense of self in relation to some Other By examining how writers and performers have conceptualized and negotiated issues of personal identity in their work the essays collected in Selves and Subjectivities investigate emerging representa-tions of self and other in contemporary Canadian arts and culture Included are essays on iconic poet and musi-cian Leonard Cohen Governor General awardndashwinning playwright Colleen Wagner feminist poet and novelist Daphne Marlatt film director David Cronenberg poet and writer Heacutedi Bouraoui author and media scholar Marusya Bociurkiw puppeteer Ronnie Burkett and the Aboriginal rap group War Party

As critic Diana Brydon has argued contemporary Can-adian writers are ldquonot transcending nation but resituating itrdquo Drawing together themes of gender and sexuality trauma and displacement performati vity and linguistic diversity Selves and Subjectivities offers an exciting new contribution to the multivocal dialogue surrounding the Canadian sense of identity

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Controlling KnowledgeFreedom of Information and Privacy Protection in a Networked World

Lorna Stefanick

Digital communications technology has immeasurably enhanced our capacity to store retrieve and exchange information But who controls our access to information and who decides what others have a right to know about us In Controlling Knowledge author Lorna Stefanick offers a thought-provoking and user-friendly overview of the regulatory regime that currently governs freedom of information and the protection of privacy

Aiming to clarify rather than mystify Stefanick out-lines the history and application of FOIP legislation with special focus on how these laws affect the individual To illustrate the impact of FOIP she examines the notion of informed consent looks at concerns about surveillance in the digital age and explores the sometimes insidious influence of Facebook Specialists in public policy and public administration information technology com-munications law criminal justice sociology and health care will find much here that bears directly on their work while students and general readers will welcome the bookrsquos down-to-earth language and accessible style

Intended to serve as a ldquocitizenrsquos guiderdquo Controlling Knowledge is a vital resource for anyone seeking to understand how freedom of information and privacy protection are legally defined and how this legislation is shaping our individual rights as citizens of the informa-tion age

Lorna Stefanick is an associate professor in the Governance Law and Management program in the Centre for State and Legal Studies at Athabasca University

Selves and SubjectivitiesReflections on Canadian Arts and Culture

edited by Manijeh Mannani and Veronica Thompson

Long a topic of intricate political and social debate Canadian identity has come to be understood as fragmented amorphous and unstable a multifaceted and contested space only tenuously linked to traditional concepts of the nation As Canadians we are endlessly defining ourselves seeking to locate our sense of self in relation to some Other By examining how writers and performers have conceptualized and negotiated issues of personal identity in their work the essays collected in Selves and Subjectivities investigate emerging representa-tions of self and other in contemporary Canadian arts and culture Included are essays on iconic poet and musi-cian Leonard Cohen Governor General awardndashwinning playwright Colleen Wagner feminist poet and novelist Daphne Marlatt film director David Cronenberg poet and writer Heacutedi Bouraoui author and media scholar Marusya Bociurkiw puppeteer Ronnie Burkett and the Aboriginal rap group War Party

As critic Diana Brydon has argued contemporary Can-adian writers are ldquonot transcending nation but resituating itrdquo Drawing together themes of gender and sexuality trauma and displacement performati vity and linguistic diversity Selves and Subjectivities offers an exciting new contribution to the multivocal dialogue surrounding the Canadian sense of identity

edited by Ruth Couture and Virginia McGowan

Dr Joseph Couture (1930ndash2007) known affectionately as ldquoDr Joerdquo stood at the centre of some of the greatest political social and intellectual struggles of Aboriginal peoples in contemporary Canada A profound thinker and writer as well as a gifted orator he easily walked two paths as a respected Elder and traditional healer and as an educational psychologist one of the first Aborig-inal people in Canada to receive a PhD His work challenged and transformed long-held views of Canadarsquos Indigenous peoples and his vision and leadership gave direction to many of the current fields of Aboriginal scholarship His influence extended into numerous areasmdasheducation addictions and mental health treat-ment community development restorative justice and federal correctional programming for Aboriginal peoples

With a foreword by Aboriginal rights activist Lewis Cardinal A Metaphoric Mind brings together for the first time key works selected from among Dr Joersquos writings published and unpub-lished Spanning nearly thirty years the essays invite us to share in his transformative legacy through a series of encounters with Aboriginal spirituality and ancestral ways of knowing with Elders and their teachings with education and its role in politicization self-determination and social change and with the restorative process and the meaning of Native healing

Ruth Couture is a qualitative researcher with extensive experience in marketing research and participatory holistic research She is the author of numerous research reports for the Mistissini Cree for the University of Saskatchewanrsquos Indigenous Peoplesrsquo Health Research Centre and with Dr Joseph Couture for the Aboriginal Peoplesrsquo Collection Public Safety Canada

Virginia McGowan has been involved in applied anthropology research on the health and well-being of indigenous peoples for over twenty years She currently leads research activities for a division of Correctional Service Canada and has published journal articles and discussion papers for both the federal and provincial governments

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

Vivien Bosley is a professor emeritus of French at the University of Alberta Her translations from the French range from seventeenth-century feminism to Canadian political biography

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Amer-European settlement of the Great Plains transformed bountiful Native soil into pasture and cropland distorting the prairie ecosystem as it was understood and used by the peoples who originally populated the land Settlers justified this transformation with the unexamined premise of deficiency according to which the Great Plains region was inadequate in flora and fauna and the region lacking in modern civilization Drawing on history sociology art and economic theory Kaye counters the argument of deficiency pointing out that in its original ecological state no region can possibly be incomplete

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

Selves and SubjectivitiesReflections on Canadian Arts and Culture

edited by Manijeh Mannani and Veronica Thompson

Long a topic of intricate political and social debate Canadian identity has come to be understood as fragmented amorphous and unstable a multifaceted and contested space only tenuously linked to traditional concepts of the nation As Canadians we are endlessly defining ourselves seeking to locate our sense of self in relation to some Other By examining how writers and performers have conceptualized and negotiated issues of personal identity in their work the essays collected in Selves and Subjectivities investigate emerging representa-tions of self and other in contemporary Canadian arts and culture Included are essays on iconic poet and musi-cian Leonard Cohen Governor General awardndashwinning playwright Colleen Wagner feminist poet and novelist Daphne Marlatt film director David Cronenberg poet and writer Heacutedi Bouraoui author and media scholar Marusya Bociurkiw puppeteer Ronnie Burkett and the Aboriginal rap group War Party

As critic Diana Brydon has argued contemporary Can-adian writers are ldquonot transcending nation but resituating itrdquo Drawing together themes of gender and sexuality trauma and displacement performati vity and linguistic diversity Selves and Subjectivities offers an exciting new contribution to the multivocal dialogue surrounding the Canadian sense of identity

Manijeh Mannani is associate professor of English and comparative literature at Athabasca University and adjunct professor of comparative literature at the University of Alberta

Veronica Thompson is assistant professor of English in the Centre for Language and Literature at Athabasca University

A Metaphoric MindSelected Writings of Joseph Couture

edited by Ruth Couture and Virginia McGowan

Dr Joseph Couture (1930ndash2007) known affectionately as ldquoDr Joerdquo stood at the centre of some of the greatest political social and intellectual struggles of Aboriginal peoples in contemporary Canada A profound thinker and writer as well as a gifted orator he easily walked two paths as a respected Elder and traditional healer and as an educational psychologist one of the first Aborig-inal people in Canada to receive a PhD His work challenged and transformed long-held views of Canadarsquos Indigenous peoples and his vision and leadership gave direction to many of the current fields of Aboriginal scholarship His influence extended into numerous areasmdasheducation addictions and mental health treat-ment community development restorative justice and federal correctional programming for Aboriginal peoples

With a foreword by Aboriginal rights activist Lewis Cardinal A Metaphoric Mind brings together for the first time key works selected from among Dr Joersquos writings published and unpub-lished Spanning nearly thirty years the essays invite us to share in his transformative legacy through a series of encounters with Aboriginal spirituality and ancestral ways of knowing with Elders and their teachings with education and its role in politicization self-determination and social change and with the restorative process and the meaning of Native healing

Ruth Couture is a qualitative researcher with extensive experience in marketing research and participatory holistic research She is the author of numerous research reports for the Mistissini Cree for the University of Saskatchewanrsquos Indigenous Peoplesrsquo Health Research Centre and with Dr Joseph Couture for the Aboriginal Peoplesrsquo Collection Public Safety Canada

Virginia McGowan has been involved in applied anthropology research on the health and well-being of indigenous peoples for over twenty years She currently leads research activities for a division of Correctional Service Canada and has published journal articles and discussion papers for both the federal and provincial governments

ldquoDr Joe challenges the reader to examine both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal approaches to the world and demonstrates the differences between Indigenous knowledge and Western thoughtrdquo

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

Vivien Bosley is a professor emeritus of French at the University of Alberta Her translations from the French range from seventeenth-century feminism to Canadian political biography

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

A Metaphoric MindSelected Writings of Joseph Couture

edited by Ruth Couture and Virginia McGowan

Dr Joseph Couture (1930ndash2007) known affectionately as ldquoDr Joerdquo stood at the centre of some of the greatest political social and intellectual struggles of Aboriginal peoples in contemporary Canada A profound thinker and writer as well as a gifted orator he easily walked two paths as a respected Elder and traditional healer and as an educational psychologist one of the first Aborig-inal people in Canada to receive a PhD His work challenged and transformed long-held views of Canadarsquos Indigenous peoples and his vision and leadership gave direction to many of the current fields of Aboriginal scholarship His influence extended into numerous areasmdasheducation addictions and mental health treat-ment community development restorative justice and federal correctional programming for Aboriginal peoples

With a foreword by Aboriginal rights activist Lewis Cardinal A Metaphoric Mind brings together for the first time key works selected from among Dr Joersquos writings published and unpub-lished Spanning nearly thirty years the essays invite us to share in his transformative legacy through a series of encounters with Aboriginal spirituality and ancestral ways of knowing with Elders and their teachings with education and its role in politicization self-determination and social change and with the restorative process and the meaning of Native healing

Ruth Couture is a qualitative researcher with extensive experience in marketing research and participatory holistic research She is the author of numerous research reports for the Mistissini Cree for the University of Saskatchewanrsquos Indigenous Peoplesrsquo Health Research Centre and with Dr Joseph Couture for the Aboriginal Peoplesrsquo Collection Public Safety Canada

Virginia McGowan has been involved in applied anthropology research on the health and well-being of indigenous peoples for over twenty years She currently leads research activities for a division of Correctional Service Canada and has published journal articles and discussion papers for both the federal and provincial governments

ldquoDr Joe challenges the reader to examine both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal approaches to the world and demonstrates the differences between Indigenous knowledge and Western thoughtrdquo

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

Vivien Bosley is a professor emeritus of French at the University of Alberta Her translations from the French range from seventeenth-century feminism to Canadian political biography

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

A collection of poetry that plays with language and wit

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Amer-European settlement of the Great Plains transformed bountiful Native soil into pasture and cropland distorting the prairie ecosystem as it was understood and used by the peoples who originally populated the land Settlers justified this transformation with the unexamined premise of deficiency according to which the Great Plains region was inadequate in flora and fauna and the region lacking in modern civilization Drawing on history sociology art and economic theory Kaye counters the argument of deficiency pointing out that in its original ecological state no region can possibly be incomplete

The Praying ManHenry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist Minister

Isaac Mabindisa with Daniel Johns

Until he was about nine Henry Bird Steinhauer was an Ojibwemdashborn around 1820 in the area of Lake Simcoe and probably named Sowengisik In 1828 he was baptized into the Christian faith and his life changed Impressed by his quick mind Methodist missionary William Case arranged for Steinhauer to receive a Western education and religious instruction From the perspective of the missionaries who saw in him someone well positioned to aid them in their quest to Christianize and civilize Native ldquosavagesrdquo Steinhauer was a rousng success serving initially as a missionary assistant a teacher and a translator of Christian texts into Ojibwa and Cree In 1855 he traveled to London to be ordained and was then posted to Alberta There he founded a mission at Whitefish Lake which would become his lifersquos work

But Steinhauer did not forget his Aboriginal roots He was troubled by what he described as the ldquoblighting and benightingrdquo presence of white settlers in the Northwest and by the fact that Aboriginal peoples were under pressure to surrender their independence and their land Although he never renounced his Christian faith in 1875 he severed his official connections to the Missionary Society and increasingly asserted his Aboriginal identity acting as a political advisor to the peoples in and around Whitefish Lake The Praying Manmdashthe first full-length biography of Steinhauermdashexplores the tensions inherent in the life of someone who owes allegiance to two cultures one of which seeks to dominate the other

Isaac Mabindisa has had a distinguished career as an educator in his native South Africa and in Canada He holds a PhD from the University of Albertarsquos Department of Educational Foundations and was a coordinator of Native Studies at Athabasca University before returning to his homeland to continue his teaching activities Daniel Johns hold an MA in Native Studies from the University of Alberta A former jour-nalist he now works as an investigator for the Alberta Ombudsman

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

Vivien Bosley is a professor emeritus of French at the University of Alberta Her translations from the French range from seventeenth-century feminism to Canadian political biography

Man Proposes God DisposesRecollections of a French Pioneer

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Amer-European settlement of the Great Plains transformed bountiful Native soil into pasture and cropland distorting the prairie ecosystem as it was understood and used by the peoples who originally populated the land Settlers justified this transformation with the unexamined premise of deficiency according to which the Great Plains region was inadequate in flora and fauna and the region lacking in modern civilization Drawing on history sociology art and economic theory Kaye counters the argument of deficiency pointing out that in its original ecological state no region can possibly be incomplete

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

ldquoFrom the edge of the plateau there was a splendid view the Athabasca flowing from the east made a great curve in front of us and carried on towards the village hellip At the moment we stopped we could see lines of ten or fifteen sledges gliding on the trail made in the ice on the river The view was so panoramic both to our right and our left and also over the undulations descending towards the bank that we took the decision right there and then to plant our flag on the spot like explorers in an unknown land and to build our house thererdquo

In 1910 young Pierre Maturieacute bid farewell to his comfort-able bourgeois existence in rural France and travelled to northern Alberta in search of independence adventure and newfound prosperity Some sixty years later he wrote of the four years he spent in Canada before he returned to France in 1914 to fight in the First World War Like that of so many youthful pioneers his story is one of adventure and hardshipmdashperilous journeys railroad construction in the Rockies panning for gold in swift-flowing streams transporting goods for the Hudsonrsquos Bay Company along the Athabasca River Blessed with the rare gift of a natural storyteller Maturieacute conveys his abiding nostalgia for a country he loved deeply yet ultimately had to abandon

Maturieacutersquos memoir Man Proposes God Disposes appeared in France in 1972 to a warm reception Now in the deft and marvellously empathetic translation of Vivien Bosley it is at long last available in English As a portrait of pioneer life in northern Alberta as a window onto the French experience in Canada and above all as an irresistible storymdashit will continue to find a place in the hearts of readers for years to come

Vivien Bosley is a professor emeritus of French at the University of Alberta Her translations from the French range from seventeenth-century feminism to Canadian political biography

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

A collection of poetry that plays with language and wit

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Amer-European settlement of the Great Plains transformed bountiful Native soil into pasture and cropland distorting the prairie ecosystem as it was understood and used by the peoples who originally populated the land Settlers justified this transformation with the unexamined premise of deficiency according to which the Great Plains region was inadequate in flora and fauna and the region lacking in modern civilization Drawing on history sociology art and economic theory Kaye counters the argument of deficiency pointing out that in its original ecological state no region can possibly be incomplete

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The Kindness Colder Than the Elements Charles Noble

ldquoThese are poems that play with and in language take pleasure in the sounds of words poems that are propelled by puns Yet even with this priority of sound and language there are tender moments when the language does more than delight in itself as though it has stumbled across lyric meaning accidentallyrdquo

mdashJay Gamble University of Lethbridge

Under the sop to CerberusThe calculating brain calculated his death

His labourWent over the moonJust like the moron cow

His milk was the kindnessHigher but colder than the elements

With wit and cunning Noblersquos poems insinuate themselves into the mediations of ldquowe use languagerdquo ldquolanguage uses usrdquo into the objectification of ldquomindrdquo into the struggles and cracking of systems Cuing on Hegelrsquos epochal revital-ization of the syllogism they begin with sentences-cum-arguments that issue from an everymanrsquos intentions and insights playing into and baiting the ldquosociality of reasonrdquo In the cut-up sentences then come the restless accelerated themesmdashthemes that exist only in their variations ghosting into one another like the dusk and the dawn in a winging distended now

Poet philosopher and family farmer Charles Noble divides his time between Banff and Nobleford Alberta His most recent books are Sally O Selected Poems and Manifesto (2009) and Death Drive Through Gaia Paris (2007)

A collection of poetry that plays with language and wit

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

educ ation | critic al theory

The modern university can trace its roots to Kantrsquos call for enlightened self-determination with education aiming to produce an informed and responsible body of citizens As the university evolved specialized areas of investigation emerged enabling ever more precise research and increas-ingly nuanced arguments In recent decades however challenges to the hegemony of disciplines have arisen partly in response to a perceived need for the university to focus greater energy on its public vocationmdashteaching and the dissemination of knowledge

Valences of Interdisciplinarity presents essays by an international array of scholars committed to enhancing our understanding of the theoretical underpinnings and the practical realities of interdisciplinary teaching and research What is and what should be motivating our reflections on (and practice of) approaches that transcend the conventional boundaries of discipline And in adopting such transdisciplinary approaches how do we safeguard critical methods and academic rigour Reflecting on the obstacles they have encountered both as thinkers and as educators the authors map out innovative new directions for the interdisciplinary project Together the essays promise to set the standards of the debate about interdisciplinarity for years to come

Raphael Foshay is the program director of the Master of Arts in Integrated Studies program at Athabasca University His research interests include literary and cultural theory and continental philosophy

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

11Extending the reach of higher education through flexibility

Flexible Pedagogy Flexible PracticeNotes from the Trenches of Distance Education

edited by Elizabeth Burge Chegravere Campbell Gibson and Terry Gibson

Flexibility has become a watchword in modern education but its implementation is by no means a straightforward matter Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice sheds light on the often taken-for-granted assumptions that inform daily practice and examines the institutional dynamics that help and hinder efforts towards flexibility The collection is international in scope drawing on the experience of specialists in distance education from North America the United Kingdom Australia and New Zealand South Africa Singapore and Japan Contributors to the volume were asked to reflect candidly and critically on questions that include

bull What precisely is flexible learningbull Who or what is driving the flexibility agenda and for whose

benefit And who or what is resisting itbull What challenges must be overcome in order to achieve flex-

ibility and what are some of the compromises it can entail

In addressing these and other issues the authors offer a wealth of theoretical insights and a frank assessment of their practical experience Their report from the trenches will be invaluable to anyone seeking to broaden the reach of higher education

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Our Lives Diary Memoir and LettersSeries Editor Janice Dickin

Todayrsquos students living in a world of blogs understand that there is much to be learned from the everyday lives of everyday people Our Lives seeks to make available previously unheard voices from both past and present Social history in general contests the construction of history as the story of elites and the act of making available the lives of everyday people mdash of remarking on the unremarkable mdash further subverts the traditional assumptions of historiography It also reinforces the mission of Athabasca University which as Canadarsquos open university seeks to include rather than exclude At the same time Our Lives aims to make available books that make good reading books that those who wrote them would themselves enjoy

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Todayrsquos students living in a world of blogs understand that there is much to be learned from the everyday lives of everyday people Our Lives seeks to make available previously unheard voices from both past and present Social history in general contests the construction of history as the story of elites and the act of making available the lives of everyday people mdash of remarking on the unremarkable mdash further subverts the traditional assumptions of historiography It also reinforces the mission of Athabasca University which as Canadarsquos open university seeks to include rather than exclude At the same time Our Lives aims to make available books that make good reading books that those who wrote them would themselves enjoy

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Our Lives Diary Memoir and LettersSeries Editor Janice Dickin

Todayrsquos students living in a world of blogs understand that there is much to be learned from the everyday lives of everyday people Our Lives seeks to make available previously unheard voices from both past and present Social history in general contests the construction of history as the story of elites and the act of making available the lives of everyday people mdash of remarking on the unremarkable mdash further subverts the traditional assumptions of historiography It also reinforces the mission of Athabasca University which as Canadarsquos open university seeks to include rather than exclude At the same time Our Lives aims to make available books that make good reading books that those who wrote them would themselves enjoy

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

The West Unbound Social and Cultural StudiesSeries Editors Alvin Finkel and Sarah Carter

Writing about the westen regions of Canada and the United States once turned on the alienation of the peoples of West from East The mythology of a homogenized West fighting bravely for its rightful place in the sun deflected interest from the lives of ordinary people and from the social struggles that pitted some groups in the West against others mdash often the elite groups who claimed to speak for the region as a whole on the national stage Seeking to challenge simplistic interpretations of the West and its institutions The West Unbound focuses instead on the ways in which particular groups of Westerners mdash among them women workers Aboriginal peoples farmers and people from a diverse array of ethnic backgrounds mdash attempted to shape the institutions and attitudes of the region The series embraces a variety of disciplines and is intended for both university audiences and general readers interested in the American and Canadian Wests

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

This season there is another new title to add to our Issues in Distance Education series Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice This series which includes several award-winning books fills a significant void in scholarly publishing on the topics of distance learning and higher education

Social and Cultural Studies in the History of Health and MedicineSeries Editor Kristin Burnett

The management of ill-health and the provision of care-giving and healing work are among the central means by which a society expresses community and resolves relationships between people places and institutions Competing understandings of health and healing have played a pivotal role in framing the Canadian colonial project and the provision of health care has emerged as a central instrument of Canadian state formation as well as a vital point of contact between the individual and the state Health care in Canada is a contested space where social and occupational groups contend over definitions of health and the control of healing practices and where Canadiansrsquo access to health and health care is mediated by region gender class and race

The series invites new research on the relationship between health and healing practices on the social and cultural meanings of health health care and on the dynamic relationship between heath health care and social formation from the colonial encounter to the rise of the modern welfare state

Historic Sites and Public HeritageSeries Editors Mike Payne and Don Wetherell

Historic Sites and Public Heritage invites studies of historic sites and heritage locales mdash local regional provincial national or international mdash undertaken from a wide variety of disciplinary perspectives These include (but are not limited to) history archaeology architecture and landscape architecture planning and land use The series welcomes narrative histories as well as standard analytical works and interdisciplinary andor broadly interpretive approaches are also encouraged

Dear readers It has been only six months since the last AU Press catalogue landed in your mailbox and this is a sign of the growth and expansion taking place at our press We have now moved to two catalogues per year and are continuing to acquire manuscripts from both established scholars and new voices

The publishing industry is an ever-evolving place and as such we are including our epub isbns in this catalogue to ensure all readers that they may find purchase and read any book from our list in whatever format they wish Responding to the requests of students teachers and patrons continues to be of paramount importance to our mandate

In this catalogue we are pleased to present an array of interesting titles from a number of disciplines Continuing to strengthen our list in labour studies we are publishing Alvin Finkelrsquos Working People in Alberta a lavishly illustrated book drawn from over two hundred interviews and archival records and Jason Russellrsquos Our Union a history of the CAWUAW Local 27 after World War II and its impact on the daily working-class experience

This season there is another new title to add to our Issues in Distance Education series Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice This series which includes several award-winning books fills a significant void in scholarly publishing on the topics of distance learning and higher education

It gives us pleasure to announce A Metaphoric Mind bringing together published and unpublished work by Joseph Couture a profound thinker and writer respected Elder traditional healer and educational psycholo-gist As well we announce The Praying Man the biography of Henry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist minister by the South African scholar Isaac Mabindisa

Media and its influence on the public is explored in two diverse books Controlling Knowledge which examines freedom of information and privacy protection in the digital age and Selves and Subjectivities a collection of essays by Canadian writers on the multivocal dialogue of Canadian identity as represented in arts and cultures

Finally we proudly present Man Proposes God Disposes the memoir of a French Pioneer in the Athabasca region by Pierre Maturieacute and The Kindness Colder Than the Elements by Alberta poet and farmer Charles Noble

I would also like to announce the availability of the journal Canadian Folk MusicMusique folklorique canadienne on our website as well as the new website publication ePublications of the Canadian Archaeological Association

Our Fall 2011 list assures AU Press another challenging and rewarding year in scholarly publishing

Dear readers It has been only six months since the last AU Press catalogue landed in your mailbox and this is a sign of the growth and expansion taking place at our press We have now moved to two catalogues per year and are continuing to acquire manuscripts from both established scholars and new voices

The publishing industry is an ever-evolving place and as such we are including our epub isbns in this catalogue to ensure all readers that they may find purchase and read any book from our list in whatever format they wish Responding to the requests of students teachers and patrons continues to be of paramount importance to our mandate

In this catalogue we are pleased to present an array of interesting titles from a number of disciplines Continuing to strengthen our list in labour studies we are publishing Alvin Finkelrsquos Working People in Alberta a lavishly illustrated book drawn from over two hundred interviews and archival records and Jason Russellrsquos Our Union a history of the CAWUAW Local 27 after World War II and its impact on the daily working-class experience

This season there is another new title to add to our Issues in Distance Education series Flexible Pedagogy Flexible Practice This series which includes several award-winning books fills a significant void in scholarly publishing on the topics of distance learning and higher education

It gives us pleasure to announce A Metaphoric Mind bringing together published and unpublished work by Joseph Couture a profound thinker and writer respected Elder traditional healer and educational psycholo-gist As well we announce The Praying Man the biography of Henry Bird Steinhauer Ojibwe and Methodist minister by the South African scholar Isaac Mabindisa

Media and its influence on the public is explored in two diverse books Controlling Knowledge which examines freedom of information and privacy protection in the digital age and Selves and Subjectivities a collection of essays by Canadian writers on the multivocal dialogue of Canadian identity as represented in arts and cultures

Finally we proudly present Man Proposes God Disposes the memoir of a French Pioneer in the Athabasca region by Pierre Maturieacute and The Kindness Colder Than the Elements by Alberta poet and farmer Charles Noble

I would also like to announce the availability of the journal Canadian Folk MusicMusique folklorique canadienne on our website as well as the new website publication ePublications of the Canadian Archaeological Association

Our Fall 2011 list assures AU Press another challenging and rewarding year in scholarly publishing
