Né au cours des années 1870 à la suite de l'entrée en vigueur de l'Acte de l'Amérique du Nord britannique, le Parti libéral est la plus ancienne formation politique au Québec. Les lecteurs découvriront ici non pas une, mais bien plusieurs histoires. D'abord celle de l'évolution des ailes parlementaires provinciale et fédérale et des relations qu'elles entretiennent entre elles.

Dans le monde occidental, les pays scandinaves se démarquent par des politiques sociales et de santé qui font d’eux les chefs de file des États égalitaires. De fait, on les cite souvent en exemple, car ils affichent des écarts moins grands qu’ailleurs entre les riches et les pauvres et un réel souci du bien-être du plus grand nombre. Ils présentent également une grande compétitivité économique et une efficacité environnementale très enviable. Malgré l’intérêt qu’on semble leur porter, leurs politiques de lutte contre les inégalités en matière de santé publique et d’éducation restent toutefois mal connues. Le Québec, qui partage plusieurs caractéristiques avec ces pays – géographiques, démographiques, culturelles –, pourrait prendre pour modèle les meilleures pratiques en cours dans ces sociétés. Ce livre n’a d’autre but que de les faire connaître afin qu’on puisse s’en inspirer.

In The Social History of Ideas in Quebec, 1760-1896, Yvan Lamonde traces the province's political and intellectual development from the British Conquest to the election of Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier. From the individuals who formulated them, to the networks in which they circulated, to their reception, Yvan Lamonde focuses on ideas at work and their role in shaping Quebec history. The mapping of a complete intellectual circuit allows Lamonde to follow the strains of ideological debates - monarchism, liberalism, republicanism, democracy, revolution, ultramontanism, nationalism - over more than a century. His work is informed by an encyclopaedic reading of the print culture of the period and the book conveys a profound and nuanced knowledge of the social context and cultural channels - educational institutions, newspapers, the book trade - in which intellectual debate occurred. Lamonde argues that while these ideas concerned politics, they went beyond the political: they were a fundamental and everyday element of civic society that was expressed in the public sphere through pamphlets, the popular press, and sermons. Lamonde's scrutiny of public opinion in Quebec allows him to place such currents of thought in the colony's international context: that of France, England, Rome, the United States, and their respective metropolises. The Social History of Ideas in Quebec, 1760-1896 covers a volatile time in the province's history - from the end of the French Regime through the American invasion, the War of 1812, and the Rebellions in Lower Canada - capturing the cultural ascension of a society and the foundations of Quebec identity.

The early twentieth century witnessed the emergence of Scottish and Quebec nationalisms that were closely intertwined with liberal philosophies. The Young Scots' Society and the Ligue nationaliste canadienne carried these liberal nationalist ideas. This book offers a comparative and historical examination of their ideas and politics, exploring the Young Scots as a movement, as well as the ideas of key Nationalistes. James Kennedy argues that the growth of the Young Scots' Society and the Ligue nationaliste canadienne was largely in response to changes within empire, state, and civil society. He suggests that the actions of the British Empire and the Canadian state not only prompted nationalist responses in Scotland and Quebec respectively, but also shaped their liberal character. His comparative analysis provides insights that would not arise from a single case study of either movement, while detailing the important roles that geopolitics, consociation and federation, and organized religion played in the creation of nationalist philosophies. The first-ever comparative history of nationalism in Scotland and Quebec, Liberal Nationalisms is an insightful study of nascent political nationalisms and a major contribution to the scholarship of nationalist movements in the early twentieth century.
