History of Canada. A General View

这个研究项目的目的是概述加拿大的历史。这一新的综合将是项目工作的重点；然而，总的主题将被主题更狭隘的详细研究(论文)所围绕。我的项目的目标不是更传统的政治史，但将超越这一点。当然，民族政治史有其优先考虑的地方，但我的意图是一部反映加拿大及其历史特点的反映历史。正如我对引导性问题的解释所表明的那样，加拿大的历史必须遵循爱尔兰或南非的历史之外的其他特殊性。这部加拿大历史的目标仍然被写成‘成长史’、加拿大学者和历史学家，他们可能对起伏不定的加拿大历史本身不那么感兴趣，但对该项目的理论反思可能不那么感兴趣，这将超越加拿大历史的严格表述。引导性问题通过多种视角联系在一起；部分不同方面重叠(在下文中作为要点)：(1)自然与文明的对比；加拿大的发现史；丰富的自然资源；它的利用和利用；对经济和社会的影响；对地理和气候条件的永久解释。(2)加拿大作为跨国历史的历史：人口的连续殖民史；殖民和定居史；(3)加拿大作为跨文化史：一边是土著(印第安人，所谓的因纽特人)和另一边的“探险者”(殖民者)和移民的关系的变化；(4)国家政治独立的相继形成；(5)法国各自的法语文化和英语各自的英语文化之间的对立；双语和语言问题；魁北克作为一个特例：国籍问题；(6)中心和省之间的关系；(6)试图实施特定利益和联邦政府的省份的不稳定比例；(7)加拿大社会的历史及其由敌对和道德归属和拨款所塑造的；(8)加拿大作为移民国的特殊性造成的问题；(9)与欧洲的关系，或者更确切地说，来自欧洲的依赖，特别是来自英国的关系；(10)与其南部邻国美国的复杂(经济、政治、文化)关系；(11)加拿大在全球社会中的地位，加拿大外交政策和外交的具体情况。

Aim of this project of research is a general outline of the history of Canada.. This new Synthesis shall be in the focus of the project work; nevertheless the general theme will be flanked by thematically more narrow detailed studies (essays).My project does not aim to a more conventional political history, but will go beyond this. A political history of nationalities has of course its priority, but my intention is a reflected history that accommodates the peculiarities Canada's and its history. As the explication of my leading questions shows, the history of Canada has to follow other particularities than the histories of Ireland or South Africa.Targets of this history of Canada still to have been written are 'Bildungsbürger', canadists and also historians that might be less interested in the fluctuating Canadian history itself but in the theoretical reflections of the project, that will be go beyond the Canadian history strictly speaking.The leading questions are connected by manifold perspectives; partly the different aspects overlap (in the following as points):(1) the contrast between nature and civilisation; the history of discovery Canada's; the superabundant natural ressources; its use and the utilization; the consequences for economy ands society; the permanent explanation with the geographic and climatic conditions.(2) the history Canada's as a transnational history: the successive colonialization of the population; the history of colonization and settlement;(3) the history Canada's as transcultural history: the changing relationship of aboriginals (Indians, so-called Métis as Inuit) on one side and the "explorers" (colonisatoren) and the immigrants on the other side;(4) the successive formation of national political independence;(5) the antagonism between french respective french-speaking culture on the one hand and english respective english-speaking cultur on the other; bilingualism and the problems of languages; Quebec as an exceptional case: the questian of nationality;(6) the relationship between centres and provinces; the precarious proportion of provinces trying to enforce particular interests and the federal government;(7) the history of Canadian society and its shaping by antagonism and ethical affiliations and appropriations;(8) problems resulting from the specificity Canada's as a country of Immigration; the ethic multiculturalism;(9) the relationship or rather the dependence from Europe, especially from Great Britain;(10) the complex (economic, political, cultural) relationship to its southern neighbour, the USA;(11) the position Canada's in the global Society, the specific of Canadian foreign policy and diplomacy.
