Annis May Timpson demonstrates how Canadian women's calls for
family-friendly employment policies have translated into inaction
or inappropriate action on the part of successive federal
governments. She focuses on debates, public inquiries, and policy
evolution during the Trudeau, Mulroney, and Chretien eras,
contextualizing these developments with a discussion of the
changing patterns of women's employment since the Second World War.
Drawing on a wealth of interviews and close analysis of primary
documents, Driven Apart explains why federal governments have been
able to implement employment equity policies but have failed to
develop a national system of child care. Driven Apart was selected
as an Outstanding Academic Title by CHOICE and was awarded The
Pierre Savard Prize by the International Council for Canadian
Studies.
