Pierre Elliott Trudeau was an active participant in the decade
of social reform and political awakening that preceded the Quiet Revolution
in Quebec, and continued to act as a non-partisan social and political critic until his entry into the federal liberal party in 1966.
He based his contribution as pamphleteer for various movements
of reform on certain basic philosophical principles. These principles
can be described as a belief in the absolute value of humanity, the efficacy
of reason in human action, and the necessity of moral participation
by the individual in the determination of all phases of his existence.
Though these principles are not systematically presented, they are discernible
and their understanding is essential as a first step in any
appreciation of Trudeau. / Arts, Faculty of / Political Science, Department of / Graduate
