In particular, it examines how the HBC utilized districts to create a political geography that allowed for closer surveillance of indigenous people and stabilized debt. An initial examination of how the district was used to rework earlier 18th-century conducts of observation into the more ordered and spatially limited regime of inspection is undertaken, followed by an investigation of how the district became central to the HBC's efforts to limit the movement of indigenous people, individualize hunters, and spur 'industriousness'. The book points to how districts became key to a number of colonial projects, laying the infrastructure for the modern reserve system in Canada. In this sense, the book provides a critical genealogy of how the command of space and social vision shaped Canada's colonial geography. 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aAmerica$xHistory 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aPolitical Sociology 606 $aHuman Geography 606 $aHistory of the Americas 606 $aUrban Sociology 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aAmerica$xHistory. 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 14$aPolitical Sociology. 615 24$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aHistory of the Americas. 615 24$aUrban Sociology. 676 $a971.00497 676 $a304.2097 700 $aHenry$b Aaron James$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0898229 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910370041403321 996 $aDistricts, Documentation, and Population in Rupert's Land (1740-1840)$94332209 997 $aUNINA
