| Zusammenfassung: | "This is the first in-depth account of how and why the Newfoundland Government acquired 17 so-called New Industries, 13 from Germany, one from Austria, one from Latvia, one from England, and one from Newfoundland, as well as of the immigrants who accompanied and followed them from the 1950s to 1970. After Newfoundland had joined Canada in 1949, Premier J.R. Smallwood believed that industrialization would prevent a mass exodus from the economically backward island to mainland Canada in search of employment. The book traces Smallwood's recruitment of each individual industry from the Newfoundland Government's and the foreign industrialists' perspectives. It examines the conditions under which each of these industries operated and the reasons for their successes and failures."-- |

After Newfoundland had joined Canada in 1949, Premier J.R. Smallwood believed that industrialization would prevent a mass exodus from the economically backward island to mainland Canada in search of employment. The book traces Smallwood's recruitment of each individual industry from the Newfoundland Government's and the foreign industrialists' perspectives. It examines the conditions under which each of these industries operated and the reasons for their successes and failures."-- Geschichte 1950-1970 gnd rswk-swf Deutsche (DE-588)4070334-4 gnd rswk-swf Technologietransfer (DE-588)4059277-7 gnd rswk-swf Einwanderung (DE-588)4013960-8 gnd rswk-swf Newfoundland and Labrador (DE-588)7672559-5 gnd rswk-swf Industries / Newfoundland and Labrador / History / 20th century Industries / Germany / History / 20th century Germans / Newfoundland and Labrador / History / 20th century Immigrants / Newfoundland and Labrador / History / 20th century Newfoundland and Labrador / Emigration and immigration / History / 20th century Newfoundland and Labrador / Economic conditions / 1949-1991 Emigration and immigration Germans Immigrants Industries Germany Newfoundland and Labrador 1900-1999 History Newfoundland and Labrador (DE-588)7672559-5 g Deutsche (DE-588)4070334-4 s Einwanderung (DE-588)4013960-8 s Technologietransfer (DE-588)4059277-7 s Geschichte 1950-1970 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 978-1-77117-614-9 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, PDF 978-1-77117-616-3 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, Kindle 978-1-77117-615-6 Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032498390&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
