L'auteure analyse comment la récession économique peut entraîner l'émergence de nouvelles pratiques économiques et sociales dans une région périphérique du Canada. Des données recueillies dans la région de West Kootenay en Colombie britannique démontrent qu'un affaissement du marché de l'emploi provoque l'apparition de stratégies de développement alternatives. L'auteure s'intéresse particulièrement ici aux garderies et à l'artisanat, deux créneaux occupés par les femmes, de même qu'à l'impact de ces activités sur la vie économique et sociale de la région. Cet article regroupe certains éléments qui laissent croire à la fois à l'émergence de nouveaux rapports de sexes basés sur le « partenariat » familial et à l'établissement de nouvelles relations économiques visant prioritairement la satisfaction des besoins des communautés.This paper suggests that the current recession and restructuring may be creating new centres of economic and social innovation, the analytically and politically neglected homes and communities in the "peripheral" regions of Canada. Using data from the West Kootenay area of British Columbia, it is argued that people are responding to declining employment opportunities by utilizing the resources remaining to them in their homes and communities to develop new survival strategies. The paper focusses on home based businesses and cooperative networks in two fields — childeare and craft manufacture — which have been established primarily by women. These businesses and networks are assessed in terms of their mobilization of local resources and their impact on the economic and social life of the region. It is argued that, despite serious shortcomings, these may provide indications of new gender relations, based on family or household partnerships, and new economic relations, based on meeting local needs rather than the profitability requirements of corporations
