Informed by the wealth of theoretical and historical writings that have recently emerged on these subjects, the contributors explore diverse state, social, legal, and human encounters with the regulation of lives in British Columbia and Canadian history. Incest in the criminal courts, racial-ethnic dimensions of alcohol regulation, public health initiatives around venereal disease, and the seizure and indoctrination of Doukhobor children, among other issues, are examined in these nine original essays. This collection will interest scholars, researchers, practitioners, and students of a wide range of contexts including law, history, sociology, criminology, women's studies, Native studies, social work, and political science.Law and society series (Vancouver, B.C.)Social controlBritish ColumbiaHistory19th centurySocial controlBritish ColumbiaHistory20th centuryLawSocial aspectsBritish ColumbiaBritish ColumbiaSocial policyBritish ColumbiaSocial conditions19th centuryBritish ColumbiaSocial conditions20th centurySocial controlHistorySocial controlHistoryLawSocial aspects303.330971McLaren John1940-1642953Menzies Robert J.1951-852115Chunn Dorothy E1673994MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822477103321Regulating lives4038497UNINA
