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.

Renegotiating Community
Interdisciplinary Perspectives,
Global Contexts
Edited by Diana Brydon
and William D. Coleman
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.

Global Ordering
Institutions and Autonomy in a
Changing World
Edited by Louis W. Pauly and
William D. Coleman
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.

foreign policy At Home and Abroad
The Canada-US Relationship
and Canada’s Place in the World
Patrick Lennox

For too long, we have conceived of Canada’s

relations with the United States at home and its

AT HOME 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.
Essential reading for anyone seeking a sophisticated,
highly original, and theoretically grounded analysis
of the past fifty years in Canada-US relations and
Canadian foreign policy, this book will also be of
interest to scholars and policymakers seeking insights
into the nature of hierarchical inter-state relationships
and the patterns of subordinate states in the
international system.

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
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
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 From World Order

Post-9/11 to Global Disorder
States, Markets, and Dissent
Edited by Stephen Baranyi Dorval Brunelle

What kind of peace From World Order

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?
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.

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.

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
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
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.

David Cameron and Richard Simeon, two of Canada’s

language policy, but also to comprehension of how
the country manages to negotiate the often spiky
contours of the language divide.

A Perilous Imbalance
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.
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.

Big Steel
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
World steel production has grown dramatically as
countries industrialize and add their own steel-
producing 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.

Nuclear Waste Management in Canada
Critical Issues, Critical Perspectives
Edited by Darrin Durant and
Genevieve Fuji Johnson
This book is a solid contribution to the political
science of public consultation; a strong message to
the Canadian nuclear industry; and a sophisticated
source of support for individuals and groups who
wish to challenge basic assumptions we should
never take for granted.
– Peter Stoett, Department of Political Science,
Concordia University
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?

public policy From Rights to Needs
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?

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, federal-
provincial 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.

From Pride to Influence
Towards a New Canadian Foreign Policy
Michael Hart
From Pride to Influence sets out a trenchant but
thoughtful and solidly supported analysis of the
challenges confronting Canadian foreign policy. Hart
makes a compelling case for avoiding the false allure
of the feel-gooders and for reversing Canada¹s slide
from peripheral to relevant in world affairs.
– Derek Burney, former Canadian ambassador
to the United States
This book looks at Canadian foreign policy, both what
it is and what we pretend it is. Hart’s hard-headed
analysis takes no prisoners and is sure to be
denounced by all the right people.
– J.L. Granatstein, author of Canada’s Army: Waging
War and Keeping the Peace
In this remarkable book, Hart urges Canada to turn
away from anti-Americanism and begin to play a more
responsible role in terms of providing for its own
defence. From Pride to Influence should stimulate a
public and very intense debate. Anyone interested in
Canadian foreign policy will want to read it.

Canada’s Voice
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
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.

The Provinces and Canadian Foreign
Trade Policy
Christopher J. Kukucha
A major contribution to the study of paradiplomacy
and to Canadian foreign policy and federalism. This
is a very important subject and, until now, there has
been no study of all ten provinces. Kukucha’s book
demonstrates a complete mastery of the cases and
of the secondary literature, and is most impressive for
its original research, parts of which are drawn from
interviews with key actors.
– André Lecours, co-author of Nationalism and
Social Policy: The Politics of Territorial Solidarity
Kukucha has written a fresh analysis of a significant
and important development in the evolution of
Canadian federalism, public policy, and the effects
of globalization: the evolving role of the provinces
in Canadian foreign trade policy. His is the first
major book on this topic in over fifteen years and
breaks new ground in applying international relations
literature to domestic institutional politics.

Finding Dahshaa
Self-Government, Social Suffering, and
Aboriginal Policy in Canada
Stephanie Irlbacher-Fox
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. I recommend this book.

The Politics of Procurement
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.
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?
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.

The New Silk Road Diplomacy
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.

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

offer a welcome
re-analysis of
the events and

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.

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.
Drawing on newly released materials
and exhaustive research, this book will
greatly interest students and academics in
Canadian history, political science, military
history, specialists in the field, and anyone
interested in the often mysterious world of
foreign intelligence.

the canadian democratic audit series

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?
