During the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the North West and Hudson’s Bay companies extended their operations beyond the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. There they encountered a mild and forgiving climate and abundant natural resources and, with the aid of Native traders, branched out into farming, fishing, logging, and mining. Following its merger with the North West Company in 1821, the Hudson’s Bay Company set up its headquarters at Fort Vancouver on the lower Columbia River. From there, the company dominated much of the non-Native economy, sending out goods to markets in Hawaii, Sitka, and San Francisco. Trading Beyond the Mountains looks at the years of exploration between 1793 and 1843 leading to the commercial development of the Pacific coast and the Cordilleran interior of western North America. Mackie examines the first stages of economic diversification in this fur trade region and its transformation into a dynamic and distinctive regional economy. He also documents the Hudson’s Bay Company’s employment of Native slaves and labourers in the North West coast region.

Regulating Lives looks at the roles of the state, society, the individual, and the law in the regulation of public and private life. In nine original essays, the authors apply the concepts of social control, moral regulation, and governmentality, as developed by influential social theorists such as Stanley Cohen, Michel Foucault, and Philip Corrigan, to the specific conditions that prevailed in early British Columbia. Along a span of nearly a century and a half – and across a diversity of topics including intermarriage, mental disorder, prohibition, incest, children’s aid, venereal disease, prostitution, and compulsory education – the essays collectively affirm the power of these ideas to clarify the intricate relations that developed, and continue to exist, between British Columbians and the political, social, and cultural order that surrounds them. In the process, they reveal the boundless potential of the west coast province as a site for such historical expeditions into the terrain of the state, society, the individual, and the law. This collection will interest scholars, researchers, practitioners, and students across a wide range of contexts, including law, history, sociology, criminology, women’s studies, Native studies, social work, and political science.
