Regards comparatifs sur la strategie quebecoise de lutte contre la pauvrete et l'exclusion sociale: un poids significatif, des choix partiellement distinctifs

Abstract

The comparative analysis of Quebec's social policies has developed through two types of approaches: explicative and qualificative. This article proposes a comparative analysis of Quebec's strategy to fight poverty and social exclusion, a perspective which is not often adopted in light of these two approaches. This double comparison makes it possible, on the one hand, to evaluate the weight of Quebec's strategy as an explicative factor for social inclusion policies (through a comparison with EU-15 member states) and, on the other hand, to analyze more precisely the political choices of Quebec's strategy (compared to those of Newfoundland and Labrador, Ontario and Nova Scotia).
