Editorial Reviews
"Contemporary Inequalities and Social Justice in Canada is a refreshing burst of expertise and erudition. There is little doubt that it will help students, scholars, and activists chart a new course toward dismantling ineffective structures of old, creating instead the kind of transformative ‘political imaginaries’ that are worthy of the best of our labors."
