Globalization & Autonomy
Empires and Autonomy
Moments in the History of Globalization Edited by Stephen M. Streeter, John C. Weaver, and William D. Coleman Globalization is one of the most significant developments of our time. But which elements of contemporary globalization and forms of autonomy are novel and which are merely continuations of long-standing trends? Empires and Autonomy brings together a distinguished group of scholars who address these questions by focusing on historical moments that involved the establishment or protection of autonomy, moments that inevitably involved friction. By examining the dialectic between globalization and autonomy at moments ranging from the Chinese occupation of Tibet in 1720 to the meeting between Reagan and Gorbachev that led to the end of the Cold War, this volume provides novel insights into changes overtaking the contemporary world.

Globalization & Autonomy
Renegotiating Community
Global Ordering
Edited by Diana Brydon and William D. Coleman
Edited by Louis W. Pauly and William D. Coleman
Interdisciplinary Perspectives, Global Contexts
This collaborative, interdisciplinary study reframes debates about community, globalization, and autonomy by analyzing the multiple ways in which communities are renegotiating their autonomy under conditions of globalization. Both as a concept and a set of social relationships, community is central to contemporary debates about globalization. Faced with finding a livable globalization, many communities are renegotiating their identities and functions and, in some instances, entirely new communities are being formed. Yet there is no clear consensus on why community matters or on how globalization affects particular communities. Renegotiating Community asks what happens to the autonomy of individuals and communities due to globalization. Original case studies show how a range of communities are renegotiating the meanings of community and autonomy while living with, and sometimes challenging, the processes of globalization. By addressing the coercive and comforting dimensions of community – as well as the need to reconcile conflicting claims to autonomy – this book redraws the conceptual maps through which community, globalization, and autonomy are understood. 2009, 328 pages, 6 x 9" 978-0-7748-1507-9 PB $32.95
Institutions and Autonomy in a Changing World
This innovative, interdisciplinary work explores key institutional fault lines between the tectonic plates of globalization and the insistent demands for individual and collective autonomy. Despite myriad global forces influencing the lives of individuals, societies, and polities, people continue to value their personal and communal independence. They insist on shaping the conditions of their existence to the fullest extent possible. At the same time, many formal and informal institutions – from transnational legal and financial regimes to new governance arrangements for aboriginal communities in environmentally sensitive regions – are evolving, adapting to meet new challenges, or failing to adjust rapidly enough. Global Ordering examines the key institutions and organizations that mediate the ever-more complex relationship between globalization and autonomy. Bringing together an outstanding group of scholars, this ground-breaking book contributes significantly to the work of re-imagining the circumstances under which integrative systemic forces can be brought into alignment with irreducible commitments to individual and collective autonomy. 2009, 352 pages, 6 x 9" 978-0-7748-1434-8 pb $32.95 Globalization & Autonomy Series

At Home and Abroad
foreign policy
The Canada-US Relationship and Canada’s Place in the World Patrick Lennox
AT HOME
For too long, we have conceived of Canada’s relations with the United States at home and its foreign relations abroad as occurring in two distinct spheres: Within the continental sphere, Canada pursues its vital physical and economic security interests; while within the international sphere, it volunteers to do “good” where it can in the world. This dualistic view of Canada’s international relations is deeply flawed. In At Home and Abroad, Patrick Lennox argues that how Canada engages with the world is fundamentally conditioned by how it relates to the US. He develops and tests a theory of Canada-US political relations and the general pattern of Canada’s external behaviour across a series of case studies, including the Vietnam War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the nuclear weapons controversy (1945-present), and the War on Terror.

THE POLITICS OF LINKAGE Power, Interdependence and Ideas in Canada-US Relations
Brian Bow
Brian Bow is an assistant
professor of political science at Dalhousie University.
November 2009 256 pages, 6 x 9" 978-0-7748-1695-3 hc $85.00 978-0-7748-1696-0 PB $32.95 (PB, July 2010)
Recent tensions over the war in Iraq and ballistic missile defence triggered alarm in Canada about whether or not the United States might be prepared to make coercive linkages between issues to force changes to Canadian policies. And subsequent proposals for closer collaboration have raised questions about whether Canada is compelled to get closer to the US in order to avoid being trampled by it. The Politics of Linkage looks closely at four major bilateral disputes between the two countries to show that – contrary to some reports – the US did not resort to coercive issue-linkages. The author explains US restraint in relations with Canada, and its shifting bases over time, drawing attention to the unique social and institutional context of Canada-US bargaining. This book sheds light on one of the fundamental controversies in Canada-US relations, with important implications for every aspect of Canadian foreign and domestic policies. It is essential reading not only for students and practitioners of Canada-US relations, but also for anyone interested in Canadian politics, American foreign policy, or international diplomacy.

The OECD and Transnational Governance
international relations
Edited by Rianne Mahon and Stephen McBride
A welcome and original addition to the surprisingly scarce published literature on the OECD. Mahon and McBride’s volume covers a broad range of policy areas, as well as encompassing an historical perspective. It is also up to date on recent developments and will be very useful to scholars of international relations, public policy, and global governance. – Kerstin Jacobsson, co-editor of Learning to be Employable: New Agendas on Work, Responsibility, and Learning in a Globalizing World
Rianne Mahon is Chancellor’s Professor and Director of the Institute of Political Economy at Carleton University. Stephen McBride is a professor and Director of the Centre for Global Political Economy at Simon Fraser University.

The OECD and Transnational Governance is a remarkable book for two reasons. First, it is an important contribution to debates about global governance and the place of advice-dispensing institutions such as the OECD. Second, it provides a thorough and critical analysis of a large number of policy sectors of this key institution. Its range makes it a very thorough and valuable collection. – Robert O’Brien, co-editor of the journal Global Social Policy The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development is a much cited but little studied institution, and its role in international governance is poorly understood. Nevertheless, the OECD plays an important role in the emerging structure of global governance. Focusing upon the OECD’s core functions, contributors to this volume trace its history, structure, and role in international governance as well as its function as a “policy ideas generator” and purveyor of “best practices” in a variety of economic and social policy domains. The OECD and Transnational Governance fills an important gap in the literature on global governance and will be of interest to academics, students, and practitioners in a variety of disciplines.

The Paradoxes of Peacebuilding Post-9/11
From World Order to Global Disorder
Edited by Stephen Baranyi
Dorval Brunelle
What kind of peace is possible in the post-9/11 world? Is sustainable peace an illusion in a world where foreign military interventions are replacing peace negotiations as starting points for postwar reconstruction? What would it take to achieve durable peace in contexts as different as Afghanistan, Mozambique, and Sri Lanka?
From World Order to Global Disorder demonstrates the profound effect of globalization on relations between the state, civil society, and markets, as well as on collective and individual rights. As neo-liberalism evolves into globalization, governments are eschewing their role as public guardians and are instead bartering the very assets and resources their citizens’ labour and activism created and preserved. However, no constitution makes governments owners of collective assets: governments are merely trustees. In this context, the world’s citizens have a tremendous task before them: in the wake of the welfare state, their social forums are indispensable in the quest for a more just and equitable world.
Grappling with these questions, this book presents six provocative case studies authored by respected peacebuilding practitioners in their own societies. The studies address two cases of relative success (Guatemala and Mozambique), three cases of renewed but deeply fraught efforts (Afghanistan, Haiti, and the Palestinian Territories), and the case of Sri Lanka, where peacebuilding was aborted but where the outlines of a new peace process can be discerned. The book also includes original analyses of demobilization, disarmament, and reintegration processes in three different contexts, written by teams of Northern and Southern analysts. 2008, 392 pages, 6 x 9” 978-0-7748-1452-2 pb $32.95

Opening Doors Wider
Women’s Political Engagement in Canada Edited by Sylvia Bashevkin From the days of the fur trade through the contemporary period, women have played important roles in the public life of Canada. Until the 1970s, however, these contributions were generally overlooked. Opening Doors Wider looks at the progress made in the last forty years to raise the profile of women’s involvement in public life. These tightly argued essays shed new light on the quality of public involvement of women in one of the world’s most stable democracies. The nuanced discussion of solutions as well as problems makes this book an indispensable resource for students and practitioners of politics at all levels.

Quebec Women and Legislative Representation
POLITICS AND GENDER
Manon Tremblay Quebec women have had the right to vote and run for office in provincial and federal forums for at least six decades, yet they occupy a minority of seats in Quebec’s National Assembly and in Canada’s House of Commons and Senate. In 2005, women represented just under one third of the members of the National Assembly and just over a quarter of Quebec’s delegation in Ottawa.

To explain this situation, Quebec Women and Legislative Representation examines Quebec women’s political engagements from 1791 to the present. It traces the path that led to women achieving the right to vote and run for office and then explores why women, who represent a slight majority of Quebec’s population, always form a minority in its parliamentary spaces. Although a number of factors are responsible for this deficit, statistics and interviews with women senators and members of Parliament identify two of serious concern – political parties and the voting system. This innovative account not only documents the significant democratic deficit in Canada’s parliamentary systems, it also outlines strategies to improve women’s access to legislative representation. It will be of interest to students and scholars of gender and politics and activists and policy makers who want to enhance women’s presence in politics.

Deliberative Democracy in Practice
Political philosophy
Edited by David Kahane, Daniel Weinstock, Dominique Leydet, and Melissa Williams Deliberative democracy is a dominant paradigm in normative political philosophy. Deliberative democrats want politics to be more than a clash of contending interests, and they believe political decisions should emerge from reasoned dialogue among citizens. But can these ideals be realized in complex and unjust societies? In Deliberative Democracy in Practice, leading scholars explore debates in deliberative democratic theory through the lens of four areas of practice: education, constitutions and state boundaries, indigenous-settler relations, and citizen participation and public consultation. This dynamic collection casts new light on the strengths and limitations of deliberative democratic theory, and offers guidance to policy-makers and food for thought for everyone interested in democratic justice.

Identity/Difference Politics

How Difference Is Produced, and Why It Matters Rita Dhamoon
Dhamoon forces us to rethink the concept of culture ... in liberal multiculturalism through a subtle, thorough engagement with its dominant thinkers. She clarifies and expands the scope of radical critiques of this field ... outlining the contours of other ways of understanding identity and difference that point towards new, more progressive understandings of democracy, subjectivity, and citizenship. – Richard Day, author of Multiculturalism and the History of Canadian Diversity

Theories of liberal multiculturalism have come to dominate debates about identity and difference politics in contemporary western political theory. Identity/Difference Politics offers a nuanced critique of these debates by switching the focus from culture to power. Issues of power are examined through accounts of meaning-making – those processes through which meanings of difference are produced, organized, and regulated. Other forms of identity/ difference such as whiteness, ableism, gender, and heteronormativity establish the analytic and normative value of Dhamoon’s alternative theoretical framework, and reveal that an exclusive preoccupation with culture can dissolve into essentialism – which too often provides a rationale for state regulation of groups deemed to be too different.

What are the roles of the passions and emotions in political life? The contributors to Bringing the Passions Back In answer this timely question by carefully rereading the classic theorists and showing how they help us see the many complex and formative roles the passions play, yet which tend to be overlooked in contemporary political thought. One of contemporary political theory’s greatest weaknesses is its neglect of the role of passion and emotion in politics. This volume illustrates the ways in which sophisticated thinking about the relationship between reason and passion can contribute to democratic theory. Its breadth – spanning classical, medieval, modern, and contemporary theories – is truly impressive.

Language Matters
public policy
How Canadian Voluntary Associations Manage French and English Edited by David R. Cameron and Richard Simeon David Cameron and Richard Simeon, two of Canada’s foremost scholars of federalism, have produced a fascinating glimpse into how Canadian civil society has adapted to linguistic duality. The result is as varied and complex – and ultimately as successful – as Canada itself ... [They make] an important contribution, not only to the understanding of language policy, but also to comprehension of how the country manages to negotiate the often spiky contours of the language divide. – Graham Fraser, Commissioner of Official Languages, address to the European Union ambassadors, 16 September 2008 Table of Contents

A Perilous Imbalance
globalization
The Globalization of Canadian Law and Governance Stephen Clarkson and Stepan Wood Canadians have long experience as objects of global forces. Yet they are also agents of globalization, contributing to the emergence of a transnational assemblage of law and governance that is markedly uneven in its attention to – and impacts on – commerce, human welfare, and the environment. A Perilous Imbalance marries political economy with socio-legal analysis to show how law and governance are deployed by various actors to advance globalizing agendas. Its critical interdisciplinary analysis traces the emergence of a global supraconstitution by which transnational corporations and powerful states discipline democratic governance in pursuit of neoconservative economic globalization.
Stephen Clarkson is a professor of political economy at the University of Toronto and a Fellow of the Centre for International Governance Innovation. Stepan Wood is a professor of law at Osgoode Hall Law School, York University.
This work documents the contradictory transformations of the Canadian state as it has retreated from some areas while reasserting itself in others. It also looks beyond the state and interstate systems to examine governance initiatives involving actors from civil society, business, and government. This book is written for scholars and advanced students of law and politics, as well as the broader policy community. Table of Contents 1 Introduction: Governing Beyond Borders

Big Steel
foreign policy and trade
Technology, Trade, and Survival in a Global Market Daniel Madar Big Steel explores an industry that has been in near continual transformation for a generation or more and captures the shape and structure of these changes. Perhaps even more significantly, it makes the case that developments in the new millennium denote a new phase in the global steel business, which portends even more dramatic changes of behaviour and performance. – Peter Clancy, author of Micro-Politics and Canadian Business: Paper, Steel and the Airlines
Daniel Madar is a professor of political science at Brock University and author of Heavy Traffic: Deregulation, Trade, and Transformation in North American Trucking.

World steel production has grown dramatically as countries industrialize and add their own steelproducing capacity. China’s prodigious expansion of steel output increases the industry’s natural vulnerability to oversupply and volatile prices. And the merger of the two largest steelmakers, Arcelor and Mittal, portends consolidation as a prime strategy for diversification and stabilization. Big Steel examines the competition and survival strategies of the integrated steel industry from various vantage points: cost structures and technology, export pricing strategies, the economics of trade protection, Paul Krugman’s Nobel Prize-winning explanation of industrial diffusion and trade, and the prospects of cooperating closely with the industry’s biggest customers, the automakers. The industry’s future, Big Steel shows, is cosmopolitan.

As oil reserves decline and the environment takes centre stage in public policy discussions, the merits and dangers of nuclear power and nuclear waste management are once again being debated. Nuclear Waste Management in Canada provides a critical counterpoint to the favourable position of government and industry by examining not only the technical but also the social and ethnical aspects of the issue. What do frequently used terms such as safety, risk, and acceptability really mean? How and why did the public consultation process in Canada fail to address ethical and social issues? And what is the significance and potential of a public consultation process that involves diverse interests, epistemologies, and actors, including Aboriginal peoples?

From Rights to Needs
public policy
A History of Family Allowances in Canada, 1929–92 Raymond B. Blake Social security programs helped to define Canada in the twentieth century and, for the generation that came of age during the Cold War, family allowances more than any other social program embodied the new national ideal. But was this program, which gave all mothers a monthly stipend to raise the nation’s babies, driven by a desire to create a kinder, gentler nation or was it more influenced by economics, constitution-making, and international trends in public policy?
Raymond B. Blake is a professor
of history at the University of Regina. 2008 380 pages, 6 x 9” 978-0-7748-1572-7 HC $85.00 978-0-7748-1573-4 pb $34.95
This book explores the family allowance phenomenon from the idea’s debut in the House of Commons in 1929 to the program’s demise as a universal program under the Mulroney government in 1992. Although successive federal governments remained committed to its underlying principle of universality, party politics, the bureaucracy, federalprovincial wrangling, and the shifting priorities of citizens eroded the rights-based approach to social security and replaced it with one based on need. By tracing the evolution of one social security program within a national perspective, From Rights to Needs sheds new light on the process by which Canada’s welfare state and social policy has been transformed over the past half century. It is a nuanced and comprehensive exploration of the origins and development of family allowances. Table of Contents Tables and Figures; Acknowledgments Introduction 1 The Dawning of a New Era in Social Security, 1929-43 2 Family Allowances Comes to Canada, 1943-45 3 The 1944 Family Allowances Debate and The Politics of It All 4 Sharing the Wealth: The Registration for Family Allowances Begins, 1945 5 The Impact of Family Allowance to the 1960s 6 Poverty, Politics, and Family Allowances, 1960-70 7 Family Allowances and Constitutional Change, 1968-72 8 Wrestling with Universality, 1972-83 9 The Demise of Family Allowances, 1984-99 Conclusion Notes; Bibliography

Canada’s Voice
foreign policy
The Public Life of John Wendell Holmes Adam Chapnick This is an important biography of one of the most significant shapers of Canadian foreign policy during the post-Second World War period. In a highly engrossing manner, Adam Chapnick convincingly demonstrates how this policymaker and leading public intellectual came to personify Canadian foreign policy during some of the most critical moments of the postwar decades. This biography will become the standard work on the life of a public servant who, as Chapnick rightly says, served as his country’s “voice” in international affairs. – David G. Haglund, Professor of Political Studies, Queen’s University
Adam Chapnick is the deputy
director of education at the Canadian Forces College and an assistant professor of defence studies at the Royal Military College of Canada.

It is hard to imagine a person who embodied the ideals of postwar Canadian foreign policy more than John Wendell Holmes. Holmes joined the foreign service in 1943, headed the Canadian Institute of International Affairs from 1960 to 1973, and, as a professor of international relations, mentored a generation of students and scholars. This book charts the life of a diplomat and public intellectual who influenced both how scholars and statespeople abroad viewed Canada and how Canadians saw themselves on the world stage.

This book is an important contribution to the study of the relationship between the Dene and Canada. Dr. Irlbacher-Fox is non-Indigenous, and she has spent most of her life living and working in Denendeh among the Dene, Metis, and Inuvialuit peoples. She has listened to us using both her mind and her heart, which shows in the passion and conviction she conveys in her research and writing. I welcome her contribution to bringing to light aspects of both the strength and the struggles of the Dene. – From the Foreword by Bill Erasmus, Dene National Chief Finding Dahshaa draws on Stephanie Irlbacher-Fox’s extensive hands-on negotiating experience, and formidable research and academic skills, to offer badly needed analysis of past and current issues impeding progress on aboriginal self-government in the Mackenzie Valley.

The Politics of Procurement
military policy
Military Acquisitions in Canada and the Sea King Helicopter Aaron Plamondon The procurement of military weapons and equipment in Canada has often been controlled by partisan political considerations – not by a clear desire to increase the capability of the military. As a result, Canada has often failed to be effective in the design, production, or even the purchase, of weapons and equipment. The Sea King helicopter is a case in point. The Politics of Procurement outlines the history of failed attempts to replace this helicopter. Officially commissioned in 1975, only to be cancelled (to the tune of $478 million), then re-commissioned again, the new helicopters are still years away.
Aaron Plamondon teaches military history at the University of Calgary and Mount Royal College and is a research associate at the Centre for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary.

This book is the first of its kind to provide a clear description and analysis of the procurement process in Canada. More than a saga about a poorly executed military acquisition, it is about why the Canadian military has always been under-equipped and often embarrassed on the world stage. It will be of interest to students and practitioners of public policy and political science and a resource for anyone seeking information on defence spending in Canada.

Canada, the Congo Crisis, and UN Peacekeeping, 1960-64 Kevin A. Spooner This is a complex story involving a large cast, whose individual and collective conduct are often questionable and whose motivations are almost invariably contradictory and self-interested. In this definitive study, Spooner meets the challenge of presenting such a thorny subject clearly and persuasively. This is a superb book on a difficult topic that tells us much about UN peacekeeping and Canada’s part in it. – Hector Mackenzie, Senior Departmental Historian, Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade In 1960 the Republic of Congo teetered near collapse as its first government struggled to cope with civil unrest and mutinous armed forces. When the UN established a peacekeeping operation to deal with the crisis, the Canadian government faced a difficult decision. Should it support the intervention?
Kevin Spooner is an assistant professor of North American studies at Wilfrid Laurier University.

By offering one of the first detailed accounts of Canadian involvement in a UN peacekeeping mission, Kevin Spooner reveals that Canada’s involvement was not a certainty: the Diefenbaker government had immediate and ongoing reservations about the mission, reservations that challenge cherished notions of Canada’s commitment to the UN and its status as a peacekeeper.

China’s Central Asian Foreign Policy since the Cold War Hasan H. Karrar With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan sprang up as independent states along China’s western frontier. Suddenly, Beijing was forced to deal with internal challenges to its authority at its border as well as international competition for energy and authority in Central Asia.

The New Silk Road Diplomacy traces how China, faced with domestic and international challenges, constructed a gradualist approach to Central Asia that prioritized multilateral diplomacy. Although China’s primary objective was to ensure stability in its own Muslim-majority domain, it also worked with Russia and the Central Asian republics to increase confidence and security in the border areas and facilitate commerce. Regional diplomacy has, however, brought China increased competition with the United States, which views Central Asia as vital to its strategic interests, particularly after the attacks of 9/11. This multifaceted book offers a fresh perspective on the foreign policy of modern China. It will appeal to experts and students of Central Asian affairs and foreign policy and anyone interested in contemporary China and its relationship with its neighbours.

With Organizing the Transnational: Labour, Politics, and Social Change, Luin Goldring and Sailaja Krishnamurti present the diversity and expression of transnationalism as both concept and reality. By incorporating non-academics in this discussion, the collection expands the current debate on transnationalism to include the perspectives of non-governmental actors and agencies. – David Dorey, International Settlement Canada, Vol. 21, No. 4, Spring 2008 This book is one of the first of its kind in Canada. It problematizes the diverse and complicated nature of transnational engagements on the part of Asian and Latin American migrants and communities in Canada, and it brings together the work of scholars and activists who both study and politically engage with transnationalism. Organizing the Transnational constitutes a highly effective bridge between scholarly work on immigrant settlement, ethnicity, citizenship, and social and political mobilization. – Vic Satzewich, co-editor of Transnational Identities and Practices in Canada Table of Contents Acknowledgments; Introduction Part 1: Institutions, Policies, and Identities Part 2: States, Transnational Labour, and Diasporic Capital Part 3: Transnational Organizing and Social Change References; Contributors; Index

A monumental achievement of impeccable scholarship. Conventional Choices combines astute quantitative analysis of a remarkably wide-ranging data set with a thorough familiarity with the secondary literature of Maritime (and Canadian) politics and an encyclopaedic culling of newspaper sources ... It will take its place among the key contributions to Maritime politics and to the study of leadership conventions. – Graham White, author of Cabinets and First Ministers
Ronald Davis has a rare combination of expertise – labor law, corporate law, trust law, securities law, and pension law ... His book provides a clear explanation of many important legal concepts from vastly different fields and brings them together in a way that is compelling ... It will be read and discussed by many scholars, policymakers, and practitioners not only in Canada and the United States but around the world. – Marleen O’Connor, Stetson University College of Law

Ideas and Change in Canada’s National Parks Paul Kopas
Brock Chisholm, the World Health Organization, and the Cold War John Farley
This book scrutinizes the policy-making process for national parks since the mid-1950s and integrates the rationale and policies that have governed park administration ... In the context of Canadian nation-building and environmental policy, this book will be useful to policy analysts, planners, academics, and students in fields ranging from environmental studies to tourism and recreation. It will also interest general readers concerned with Canada’s parks and the environment. – APADE, 2007
Brock Chisholm was one of the most influential Canadians of the twentieth century. A world-renowned psychiatrist, he was the first director-general of the World Health Organization, and built it up against overwhelming political odds. An atheist and a fierce critic of jingoistic nationalism, he supported world peace and world government and became a champion of the United Nations and the WHO. Post-1945 international politics, global health issues, and medical history intersect in this highly readable account of a remarkable Canadian. Table of Contents

Ms. Slowey presents a highly thought-provoking treatise on the development of self governance for First Nations peoples and it will certainly be a useful resource for all aboriginals in their search for a desirable and workable solution to their demand for justice. Lawyers working through the land claims process towards indigenous governance will find this to be a valuable text. – Ronald F. MacIsaac, Verdict 118, September 2008 What happens to a First Nation after the successful negotiation of a land claim? In Navigating Neoliberalism, Gabrielle Slowey argues that neoliberalism, which drives government policy concerning First Nations in Canada, can also drive self-determination. And in a globalizing world, new opportunities for indigenous governance may transform socioeconomic well-being.

Cautious Beginnings
Peter Kulchyski and Frank James Tester
Kurt F. Jensen
Kulchyski and Tester offer a welcome re-analysis of the events and consequences surrounding Canadian policy and practice with regard to Inuit, particularly through the mechanism of game management. The book should stimulate discussion, reaction, and further research and interpretation of crucial events in Canadian and Arctic history ... They have taken on a vast swath of northern history, immersed themselves in the available material, and emerged with a compelling account of how relations between a modern state and a hunting society were bungled with lasting consequences. - Henry P. Huntington, Arctic, March 2008
When the Second World War began, Canada had no foreign intelligence capacity. Its political leaders had concluded that a clandestine service was not necessary to meet the nation’s intelligence requirements. Yet Kurt F. Jensen argues that the country was a more active intelligence partner in the wartime alliance than has previously been suggested.

Beginning in Spring 2004, UBC Press began publishing a groundbreaking new series examining the status of Canadian democracy at the outset of the 21st century. The result of a milestone research project of the Centre for Canadian Studies at Mount Allison University (see canadiandemocraticaudit.ca), the Canadian Democratic Audit series makes a monumental contribution to our understanding of political life in Canada. The audit comprises a series of volumes, each examining a different aspect of Canadian democracy. Throughout the series, three central questions guide the investigation: How participatory is Canadian democracy? How responsive are our political institutions? How inclusive is our public decision making?
