Abstract
This paper examines national identities in Canada and the United States in 1995 and 2004, a period of considerable change in both countries. Drawing on data from the International Social Science Programme National Identity modules and on research from social psychology, the central argument forwarded is that in several respects the national identities of Canadians are becoming more similar to those of Americans over time. These similarities have often been overlooked in previous Canadian research, which tends to emphasize the differences between the two countries while downplaying their shared characteristics.
Résumé
Cet ouvrage porte sur les identités nationales au Canada et aux États-Unis en 1995 et en 2004, deux périodes de changement fondamental pour ces deux États. Cette étude se fonde sur des données extraites des modules de l’International Social Science Programme National Identity et sur la recherche en psychologie sociale. Son principal argument est que, à plusieurs égards, les identités nationales des Canadiens sont devenues de plus en plus similaires à celles des Étatsuniens au fil du temps. Au Canada, ces similitudes ont souvent été omises dans des recherches antérieures, lesquelles étaient axées sur les différences entre les deux pays et où on minimisait leurs caractéristiques communes.
