Abstract

L'objectif de ce travail est d'etudier le lien entre le developpement d'une enclave industrielle et le flux d'iimigration en provenance des iles Britanniques au milieu du 19e siecle. En tenant compte de la position strategique des villes portuaires du Bas-Canada dans le flux de migration transatlantique, l'analyse accorde une importance particuliere au pouvoir explicatif d'une forme hybride du modele dualiste bien connu de Lewis en developpement economique.
