The government of natural resources : science, territory, and state power in Quebec, 1867-1939

Author:	Stéphane Castonguay; Käthe Roth
Publisher:	Vancouver ; Toronto : UBC Press, [2021] ©2021
Series:	Nature, history, society.

Summary:	"The Government of Natural Resources explores government scientific activity in Quebec from Confederation until the Second World War. Scientific and technical personnel are an often quiet presence within the state, but they play an integral role. By tracing the history of geology, forestry, fishery, and agronomy services, Stéphane Castonguay reveals how the exploitation of natural resources became a tool of government. As it shaped territorial and environmental transformations, scientific activity contributed to state formation and expanded administrative capacity. This thoughtful reconceptualization of resource development reaches well beyond provincial borders, changing the way we think of science and state power."--  Read more...
