Reviews

The First Century is a significant contribution to historical institutionalist literature on an important dimension of Canada-US relations and transnational environmental policies. Its contributors illustrate both the potential and conditions for cross-border cooperation, along with the multiple political and institutional constraints on such activities. As such, it is a rewarding study for academics, practitioners, and those interested in understanding the conditions for effective civic engagement in cross-border relations. --Geoffrey Hale, American Review of Canadian Studies Provides excellent analysis and coverage of the first century of the IJC --Stephen J. Randall, Canadian Historical Review
