Overview

This is the first major scholarly examination of foreign policy during the Mulroney Conservative era. The collection explores and analyzes the many departures from traditional Canadian statecraft that took place during this period: free trade with the US, a continentalized energy policy, initiatives over the environment and the Arctic, the withdrawal of Canadian forces from Europe, and the transformation of peacekeeping into peacemaking.

Reviews

A pleasure to report that the Michaud-Nossal collection is not only timely but comprehensible, with generally well written essays assigned to important topics. Readers will come away vastly better informed about the twists and turns - and continuities - of Canadian foreign policy in the 1980s - what it was, how it was made, and where it fits. - Robert Bothwell, International Journal
