Synopsis
In the 1960s, Canada began a seismic shift away from the core policies and values upon which the country had been built. A nation of ?makers? transformed itself into a nation of ?takers.? Crowley argues that the time has come for the pendulum to swing back?back to a time when Canadians were less willing to rely on the state for support; when people went where the work was rather than waiting for the work to come to them.
Thought-provoking, meticulously detailed and ultimately polarizing, Fearful Symmetry is required reading for anyone who is interested in where this country began, where it?s been, and where it?s going.

Condition: New. A tight brand new First Edition with a bump on the top right corner." Two forces have shaped Canada profoundly in the last 50 years: the entry of Boomers into the workforce and the rise of a separatist Quebec nationalism. Large-scale unemployment plus the threat of the breakup of the country caused Canada to jettison its traditional values - a ferocious work ethic, a commitment to the family as the most important social institution, a suspicion of overweening government, and an aversion to dependence - in favor of a vast expansion of the welfare state. We rapidly became a nation of "takers" rather than the "makers" we had always been. But the tide is about to turn with a vengeance: the Boomers are retiring and Quebec nationalism is increasingly a spent force, presaging a resurgence of our founders' values that had served us so well. Thought-provoking and meticulously documented, Fearful Symmetry will change the way you think about Canada.". Seller Inventory # 24119
