Abstract
This
thesis
explores
Settler
perceptions
of
Indian/Settler
relations
in a
Labrador
community
and
interprets
these
perceptions
as
statements
about
Settler
identities
and
social
characters.
Analysing
the
causes
of
changes
in
perception
, the
thesis
demonstrates
the
operation
of
various
influences
,
historical
,
economic
, and
political
, in the
creation
of these
identities
and
perceptions.
Finally
,
it
shows
how
ethnicity
becomes
fluid
with the
fragmentation
of
social
experience
caused
by these
influences
, and how this
fluidity
makes
it
possible
to
manipulate
ethnic
identity
in
pursuance
of
various
goals.
