In this highly original volume of social history, Karen Anderson makes a provocative claim: the subjugation of women in seventeenth-century New France was linked with the brutal colonization of native Indian populations. Before colonization, the Huron and Montagnais tribes lived in gender-egalitarian societies. The domination of women by men was only one effect of French "civilization"--along with warfare, disease, famine and Jesuit proselytization--which combined to destroy Indian culture and sexual equality. Anderson's is an interdisciplinary, cross-cultural, feminist case study of the historical and political construction of gender and racial inequality.

Product Description:
For the Huron and Montagnais, two of the native peoples in the New World, the value and power of women and men in their societies were equally balanced: but in the years from 1620 to 1650 all this changed. In this short period, the Huron and Montagnais experienced massive disruption because of European disease, warfare, famines and the introduction of the fur trade by Europeans. Change also came about because Christian missionaries were intent on converting the native people to Christianity. A major result of these events was the subjugation of women. Using Huron and Montagnais as case examples, Karen Anderson investigates how relations of subjugation and domination between men and women were introduced into egalitarian societies following the destruction of their cultures. She challenges the view that women have always and everywhere been subjugated to men, and argues that domination and the social institutions that support it are both socially and historically specific. Taking in such topics as seventeenth century Christian doctrine on men, women and their inter-relations, the political economy of the Huron and their cultural practices, and the construction and expression of subjectivity, she explores the complex relationship between social structure, social meaning and individual consciousness, and the part they played between men and women.
