"Cet ouvrage collectif traite des parcours de vie de Québécois issus de la génération du baby-boom en les mettant en lien avec les étapes des cycles de vie des individus ainsi qu'avec les événements sociaux et politiques qu'a connus la province au cours des dernières décennies. Partant des récits de vie et d'itinéraires de sens collectés auprès de près d'une centaine de répondants, les auteurs explorent les processus de mise en sens des expériences individuelles et collectives. Il en ressort que, en dépit de l'invisibilité du religieux sur la place publique comme dans les déclarations des répondants, la plupart des personnes rencontrées affichent des croyances et pratiques qui leur sont propres. Si ces dernières empruntent à divers registres religieux souvent inspirés de la diversité culturelle présente au Québec, la mémoire et l'éducation catholiques demeurent présents dans les récits comme dans les pratiques, comme une référence contre laquelle on se définit ou dont on reconnait l'héritage, souvent teinté d'affect. Ces récits personnels mettent en scène la modernité québécoise, la sécularisation de la société ainsi que les débats identitaires qui animent l'imaginaire collectif et contribuent à façonner les consciences individuelles."--

The Canadian Constitution of 1867 as written should have provided the authoritative guide to the law governing the division of powers between the national and provincial governments of Canada, but by the 1940s the federal constitution was a very different document to that composed originally by John A. Macdonald and his colleagues. In this engaging and exhaustive examination of the critical role of the courts? the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council and the Supreme Court of Canada? in shaping Canadian federalism, John Saywell argues that the courts always have and still do 'make law'? law that can be largely subjective and often bears little relationship to the text or purposes of the Constitution. Saywell begins his analysis by offering new evidence and insights on the structure of the 1867 constitution. Relying heavily on the voices of the actors themselves, his analysis moves beyond a simple examination of previously published reports and examines oral arguments before the Judicial Committee, largely from manuscripts, to determine how the Committee interacted with counsel, developed their arguments, and came to their conclusions. Critical of the jurisprudence of the Judicial Committee, which he argues virtually eliminated some of the critical legislative powers of the federal government and destroyed its capacity to act on the economic and social problems of the twentieth century, Saywell credits the Supreme Court with restoring the balance in the federation and strengthening the national government. Comprehensive, ambitious, and detailed, The Lawmakers will be the definitive work on the evolution of the law of Canadian federalism.
