Building on his undergrad, the focus of Zac&#8217;s research will be on the history PEI has with prohibition and the lasting effect that history has had on aspects of the island&#8217;s culture. Hearing stories of island bootleggers and their exploits growing up instilled a deep interest into these seedy characters and their chosen profession. To this end, Zac has endeavored to thoroughly research the illegal nightclubs that permeated the island until the late 1990s. The operators and patrons of these establishments look back fondly on these times, for those who have only heard stories of these locations this research hopes to provide insight into these yearnful memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:14px\"><strong>PUBLICATIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/mais\/a-walk-on-the-edge\/a-walk-on-the-edge-2022\/a-walk-on-the-edge-zac-elsinga\/\">Walk on the Edge<\/a>, Experiencing the Shore, IST6140 Assignment, 2022, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:38px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/mais\/graduate-profiles\/patrick-leveque\">BACK TO TOP<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"http:\/\/projects.upei.ca\/mais\/graduate-profiles\">BACK TO GRADUATE PROFILES HOME<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GRADUATE STUDENT PROFILE Peter Zachary Elsinga MASTER OF ARTS IN ISLAND STUDIES | THESIS .
