A Young Man's Benefit: The Independent Order of Odd Fellows and Sickness Insurance in the United States and Canada, 1860-1929: Volume 7
ISBN: 9780773518247 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Using cliometric methods and records from six grand-lodge archives, A Young Man's Benefit rejects the conventional wisdom about friendly societies and sickness insurance, arguing that IOOF lodges were financially sound institutions, were more efficient than commercial insurers, and met a market demand headed by young men who lacked alternatives to market insurance, not older men who had an above-average risk of sickness disability. Emery and Emery show that many young men joined the Odd Fellows for sickness insurance and quit the society once self-insurance - savings - or family insurance -...

The Methodist Church on the Prairies, 1896-1914
ISBN: 9780773521834 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Methodist Church met the challenge with a centralized polity and a cross-class, gender-variegated, evolving religious culture. It relied on wealthy laymen to raise special funds, while small gifts fed its regular funds. Young bachelors from Ontario and Britain filled the pastorate, although low pay, inexperience, and poor supervision caused many to quit. Membership growth was slow due to low population density and church-resistant elements in the Methodist population (bachelors, immigrant co-religionists, and transients), and missions to non-Anglo-Saxon immigrants in Winnipeg, Edmonton,...

Principles and Gerrymanders: Parliamentary Redistribution of Ridings in Ontario, 1840-1954
ISBN: 9780773545830 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Redistributing electoral ridings alters their number, revises their boundaries, or does both at the same time. Ostensibly, the purpose of redistribution is to adjust parliamentary representation for population changes - the growth or decline of population, or shifts in its territorial distribution and social composition. Before an arm's-length commission, headed by a judge, took control of electoral redistribution in the 1960s, parliament - effectively, the majority party - controlled redistribution, raising the possibility that the governing party would adjust the ridings for its own...

Elections in Oxford County, 1837-75 is a unique exploration of the forms, practices, and issues of democracy in a mid-nineteenth-century colonial setting. In this case study of thirty-eight elections in Oxford County -- first as part of the United Province of Canada, then in early Ontario -- George Emery delves into the advances, setbacks, and flaws of a partially democratic system.
