"Resettlement is a global phenomenon that is once again at the forefront of political debate in Newfoundland and Labrador. Resettlement is a timely interdisciplinary text that helps readers understand local contemporary resettlement debates by examining community relocation projects across and beyond Canada. This book is an assembly of interdisciplinary voices which places Newfoundland and Labrador resettlement (past, present, and future) in conversation with other ongoing relocation debates around the world. The authors consider common themes of contemporary resettlement programs including resistance, collective-decision making, power, place, and identity. Newfoundland Studies scholars have underscored the significance of Smallwood-era resettlement programs (1954-1977), but have not yet adequately addressed the second, ongoing phase of resettlement (1977-present), in which resettlement has been carried out at the request of communities and implemented to mitigate the fiscal mismatch between shrinking populations and infrastructure costs. Much can be gained by placing it in conversation with other contemporary resettlement projects."-- |
