II analyse les motifs, parfois int6ress6s, ayant pouss6 l'Etat A intervenir progressivement dans la cellule familiale pour secourir l'enfant maltrait6. II d6crit aussi la manibre dont le droit britannique a influenc6 les lois canadiennes de sauvegarde de l'enfance, notamment dans les provinces de l'Ontario et du Qu6bec. Enfin, il 6tablit une corr6lation entre le moddle traditionnel d'assistance sociale au Qu6bec et la reconnaissance tardive de l'enfant comme sujet de droit. This article retraces the distant origins of the Quebec Youth Protection Act to the earliest British and American laws protecting the child from social and family maltreatment. It analyses the State's interested motives in intervening progressively in the family unit to rescue the abused child. It also describes how British laws influenced Canadian child protection legislation, notably in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Finally, it establishes a correlation between the traditional model of public assistance in Quebec and the late recognition of children's rights. * Membre du Barreau du Qu6bec et charg6 de cours i l'Universit6 de Montr6al. Ce texte constitue un r6sum6 de m6moire de mattrise dirig6 conjointement par Mmes les professeures Edith Deleury et Ethel Groffier.
