Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au cours de l'après-guerre et de la Révolution tranquille, le Canada et le Québec s'engagent dans un processus de modernisation de leurs structures sociales, économiques et politiques auquel les sciences prennent part. Elles sont de plus en plus perçues comme essentielles à la bonne marche de la société, à la croissance économique, ainsi qu'à la gestion publique éclairée. Dans ce mémoire, notre objectif est d'abord de prendre connaissance des discours sur la recherche scientifique au Canada français au cours de cette période et, par la suite, de comprendre leur évolution. Pour ce faire, nous avons étudié tous les mémoires et annexes qui abordent de près ou de loin la question de la recherche scientifique déposés par des intervenants francophones à la Commission royale d'enquête sur l'avancement des arts, des lettres et des sciences au Canada (Massey, 1949-1951), à la Commission royale d'enquête sur les problèmes constitutionnels (Tremblay, 1953-1956) et à la Commission royale d'enquête sur l'enseignement dans la province de Québec (Parent, 1961-1966). Nous avons observé des éléments de continuité comme de rupture entre les discours propres à chaque commission. La prise en charge publique de la recherche, la plus grande implication du pouvoir provincial dans le champ scientifique, de même que la modernisation de l'État québécois sont toujours considérées comme cruciales pour le développement scientifique qui contribue à une société plus juste, à une économie plus solide, à un exercice éclairé du pouvoir et au rayonnement national. Toutefois, le règlement du litige constitutionnel relatif au financement des universités par Ottawa a pour résultat l'évacuation de cette question lors de la Commission Parent. Le rattrapage des francophones et la place des femmes dans la société y sont également évoqués pour la première fois. Enfin, le rayonnement du Québec y est présenté comme un argument de poids en faveur du développement scientifique soutenu par l'État québécois. _____

Download or read book Physics and the Rise of Scientific Research in Canada written by Yves Gingras and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1991-03-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The teaching of engineering and a change in liberal arts curricula, both stimulated by industrial growth, encouraged the creation of specialized courses in the sciences. By the 1890s, Gingras argues, trained researchers had begun to appear in Canadian universities. The technological demands of the First World War and the founding, in 1916, of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) accelerated the growth of scientific research. The Transactions of the Royal Society of Canada could no longer publish everything submitted to it because of the disproportionately large number of research papers from the fields of science. In response, the NRC created the Canadian Journal of Research, a journal specifically dedicated to the publication of scientific research. By 1930, a stable, national system of scientific research was in place in Canada. Following the dramatic increase in the national importance of their disciplines, scientists faced the problem of social identity. Gingras demonstrates that in the case of physics this took the form of a conflict between those who promoted a professional orientation, necessary to compete successfully with engineers in the labour market, and those, mainly in the universities, who were concerned with problems of the discipline such as publication, internal management, and awards. Physics and the Rise of Scientific Research in Canada is the first book to provide a general analysis of the origins of scientific research in Canadian universities. Gingras proposes a sociological model of the formation of scientific disciplines, distinguishing the profession from the discipline, two notions often confused by historians and sociologists of science.

This book was released on 2010-11-22 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume Two of this retrospective bibliography is both a continuation and an expansion of Volume One (1984). It contains references to Canadian medical-historical literature published between 1984 and 1998, and also includes much additional material published prior to 1984. Finally, it substantially enlarges the content of French-language material. Every effort has been made to be as inclusive as possible of articles, theses, book chapters and books, both in English and in French, relating to the history of medicine. No single electronic source can replace this bibliography. The contents are divided into three sections. The first is a listing of material expressly biographical. Section two lists material under a wide variety of subject headings related to medicine, and the third is a complete listing of the authors who have contributed these articles. Simply organized and easy to use, this bibliography will be of value to historians, archivists, librarians, and anyone interested in the history of medicine.
