Description

Canadian Foreign Policy in a Unipolar World considers how a single disproportionately influential global power impacts the theory and practice of foreign policy in Canada today. Taking the model of unipolarity as a starting point, this contributed text covers such fascinating topics as Homeland Security, Canadian development policies, and climate change.

Editorial Reviews

"Overall [this text] does have a unique contribution to existing Canadian foreign-policy textbooks. . . . it is an attempt to carve out a space that is less addressed by the other existing textbooks. . . . The overall argumentation is quite excellent, and I think there is a space for this textbook in the field." --Dan Bousfield, Western University
