Navigating a Changing World: Canada's International Policies in an Age of Uncertainties


Add your own review!

Overview

The negotiation of the Canada–U.S. Free Trade agreement in 1985–88 initiated a period of substantially increased North American, and later, global economic integration. However, events since the election of Donald Trump in 2016 have created the potential for major policy shifts arising from NAFTA’s renegotiation and continuing political uncertainties in the United States and with Canada’s other major trading partners. Navigating a Changing World draws together scholars from both countries to examine Canada–U.S. policy relations, the evolution of various processes for regulating market and human movements across national borders, and the specific application of these dynamics to a cross-section of policy fields with significant implications for Canadian public policy. It explores the impact of territorial institutions and extra-territorial forces – institutional, economic, and technological, among others – on interactions across national borders, both within North America and, where relevant, in broader economic relationships affecting the movement of goods, services, people, and capital. Above all, Navigating a Changing World represents the first major study to address Canada’s international policy relations within and beyond North America since the elections of Justin Trudeau in 2015 and Donald Trump in 2016 and the renegotiation of NAFTA.

Reviews

Navigating a Changing World is the most comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the state of Canada's international policy relations. Hale and Anderson successfully balance theoretical perspectives, including debates about sovereignty and a-territoriality, with policy considerations, situating the range of topics covered within the contemporary economic and political landscape of Canada, and Canada's international relations. - Laurie Trautman, director of Border Policy Research Institute, Western Washington University Hale and Anderson have produced an outstandingly comprehensive and insightful review of the challenges facing Canada as it grapples with developing effective policy responses in a rapidly changing international economic and political order. Canada is, as the editors state, at a 'crossroads, ' and whether the route ahead is to be a smooth or a bumpy ride will in no small measure be a function of how policymakers address the dilemmas that are so intelligently analyzed in this volume. Navigating a Changing World is a major contribution to scholarship on Canadian foreign economic policy, with a breadth of coverage that has rarely been equalled, and never surpassed, in any previous work. - David G. Haglund, professor of political studies, Queen's University The importance of the issues discussed and analyzed in this text should not be underestimated. Significant and far-reaching changes to global alliances and long-term treaties are taking place at a dizzying rate. The scope of topics and quality of scholarship in Navigating a Changing World will undoubtedly serve as a source for high-level policy recommendations for various agencies in Canada and the United States as well as in other national agencies. - Timothy J. Pasch, associate professor of communication, University of North Dakota

Canada is, as the editors state, at a 'crossroads, ' and whether the route ahead is to be a smooth or a bumpy ride will in no small measure be a function of how policymakers address the manifold dilemmas that are so intelligently limned analyzed in this volume. Navigating a Changing World is a major contribution to scholarship on Canadian foreign economic policy, with a breadth of coverage that has rarely been equalled, and never surpassed, in any previous work. - David G. Haglund, professor of political studies, Queen's University The importance of the issues discussed and analyzed in this text should not be underestimated. Significant and far-reaching changes to global alliances and long-term treaties are taking place at a dizzying rate in terms of global alliances and long-term treaties at a pace that has left many - including many global and area scholars - numbed by the rapidity at which long-standing organizations are shifting and even crumbling. The scope of topics and quality of scholarship in Navigating a Changing World will undoubtedly serve as a source for high-level policy recommendations for various agencies in Canada and the United States as well as in other national agencies. - Timothy J.
