Between 1849 and 1930, schooling in what is now British Columbia
supported the development of a capitalist settler society. Lessons
in Legitimacy examines government-assisted schooling for Indigenous
and non-Indigenous peoples - public schools, Indian Day Schools,
and Indian Residential Schools - in one analytical frame. Sean
Carleton demonstrates how church and state officials administered
different school systems that trained Indigenous and settler
children and youth to take up and accept unequal roles in the
emerging social order. This important study reveals how an
understanding of the historical uses of schooling can inform
contemporary discussions about the role of education in
reconciliation and improving Indigenous-settler relations.
