Course Description:
Seminar in Canadian History
Post-industrial economies are driven by consumption, and Canada is no exception. Built-in obsolescence insures that we constantly want new consumer goods, and we take their diversity and availability of for granted. This, of course, has not always been the case. Our relationship with the “world of goods” has significantly changed over the centuries, and historians of consumption have even identified several “consumer revolutions” which have occurred in the western world and Japan since the seventeenth century. In this seminar, we will try to find out whether there were such “consumer revolutions” in Canada, and how typical or not they were?
