Book Description
Uncertain Refuge is a highly readable discussion of issues and problems in Newfoundland society and culture, past and present. Newfoundland-born sociologist Maura Hanrahan examines child sexual abuse and other problems, grassroots movements such as the Fisherman's Protective Union, and ongoing issues including the seal hunt, women's politics, employment and economic development. Published concurrently with Through a Mirror Dimly, a collection of analysts' essays on Newfoundland, Uncertain Refuge illustrates how social change and conflict has transformed Newfoundland society.
