- Abstract: During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Canada and the United States attempted to protect sexual morality at home by extending their power abroad. They used border surveillance to control the transnational movements of Euro-Canadians, Euro-Americans, Chinese immigrants, and Native Americans. At the same time, they developed creative ways to punish deviancy abroad by relying on an expansive understanding of the extradition process and by using race-based legislation to increase their coercive power. They deprived individuals of their intergenerational access to wealth and status through their ability to control marital recognition. Deprivation served as a powerful tool to secure conformity even beyond the explicit legal boundaries each country maintained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
- Abstract: Aux
xix e etxx e siècles, le Canada et les États-Unis tentèrent de protéger la moralité sexuelle en leur sol en étendant leur pouvoir à l'étranger. Ils se servirent de la surveillance des frontières pour encadrer les mouvements transnationaux d'Euro-Canadiens, d'Euro-Américains, d'immigrants chinois et d'Autochtones américains. Par ailleurs, ils trouvèrent des moyens ingénieux pour punir la déviance à l'étranger en misant sur une interprétation large du processus d'extradition et en faisant appel à des mesures législatives à caractère racial afin d'accroître leur pouvoir de coercition. Ils privèrent des gens d'un accès intergénérationnel à la richesse et à un statut grâce à leur capacité d'intervenir dans la reconnaissance des mariages. La privation a puissamment contribué à assurer la conformité, même au-delà du cadre juridique explicite existant dans chaque pays.
