Parliament of Canada -OS

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Franks, C. E. S., PUBLISHER: University of Toronto Press, More MPs resign voluntarily in Canada than their counterparts in either Britain or the United States. A recent Gallup poll found that the majority of Canadians have little to no interest in Parliament. Western Canadians are agitating for the establishment of a 3-E Senate: elected, equal, effective. In this provocative study C.E.S Franks explores the nature of Canada's parliamentary system and the roots of current dissatisfaction with its institutions. He compares the demands made on MPs with their essentially amateur abilities to govern. He relates the institution of Parliament to broader questions about political parties in general, and considers the relationship of Parliament to the executive branch in policy-making and accountability.

The present first volume of the World Report on Regional Integration is a timely product of the research undertaken at UNU-CRIS. This new series of World Reports will certainly contribute to the discussion on the interaction between regional and global governance. And by bringing together insights from different parts of the UN system, in particular the five UN regional economic commissions and UNCTAD, this report will also contribute to a better understanding of the role of regions in the UN. Hans van Ginkel, Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations and Rector of UNU The World Report on Regional Integration brings together a well-balanced mix of economic analysis, facts and political perspectives on the topic of regional integration. The most valuable and unique contribution of this volume is the enhanced clarity it brings to the complex picture of trade and investment integration, the entanglement of which points to the need for more effective regional governance as a building block of multilateral governance in this area. As the worlda (TM)s most dynamic trading region, Asia and the Pacific is a key player in this process, and the UNESCAP secretariat, in its service to the region, will continue to accord high priority to this policy objective.

The Durham Report and British Policy: A Critical Essay

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Martin, GED / Martin, S.J., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In Lord Melbourne's Whig government in Britain sent the radical Lord Durham to Canada as Governor-General to deal with a colony in the aftermath of a rebellion. Durham's vanity and arrogance made him a poor choice for the post, and he resigned a few months later after the government had been forced to overrule him for exceeding his powers. After his return to Britain he wrote his Report on the Affairs of British North America - and its unauthorized publication in the Times caused a sensation. This report - the famous 'Durham Report' - has been seen as the starting point of the British tradition of colonial self-rule leading through the Statute of Westminster of to the independent self-governing Commonwealth of today.

Canada and the Reagan Challenge: Crisis and Adjustment,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Clarkson, Stephen, PUBLISHER: James Lorimer & Company,, "Canada and Reagan Challenge," first published in , has gained wide acclaim for its analysis of the crisis of - when Ottawa and Washington went head-to-head over the economic nationalism of the National Energy Program and the Foreign Investment Review Agency. Stephen Clarkson's study demonstrated that the crisis extended to a great many fronts, including defence, the environment and the survival of Canadian culture. The September election brought to Ottawa a new Conservative government, one that seemed determined to embrace Ronald Reagan's view of the world. The Conservatives soon came on side with Washington on the "Stars Wars" debate. As for foreign investment, the Tories declared Canada "open for business." With many challenges for the bilateral relationship on the horizon - further protectionist threats, free trade negotiations, the modernization of NORAD, the acid rain crisis, and American withdrawal from international institutions such as UNESCO - Stephen Clarkson asks whether the Conservatives' "super relations" with the United States will result in the sacrifice of Canadian interests.

Suburb of Dissent - PB

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Irr, Caren / Caren Irr / Irr, PUBLISHER: Duke University Press, In "The Suburb of Dissent "Caren Irr explores the leftist literary subculture of the United States and Canada during the s to reconstruct the ideas of mass culture, class, and nationality that emerged as a result of the Great Depression. Unearthing plots and characters that still surface in contemporary narratives, Irr juxtaposes classic and neglected works of criticism, fiction, poetry, and journalism and demonstrates how leftist writers resisted totalitarianism much more thoroughly than Cold War accounts would suggest. Irr highlights works by Richard Wright, John Dos Passos, Nathanael West, and others to uncover the complex relationship between American anti-communism and communist anti-Americanism. In an unprecedented move, she extends her inquiry to the work of Canadian intellectuals such as Dorothy Livesay and Hugh MacLennan to reveal the important yet overlooked fact that the territory at the border of the United States and Canada provided a vital contact zone and transnational "home" for leftist thinkers. Attending to intersections of race, ethnicity, and gender, Irr illustrates the ways dissenting writers made culture actively respond to the political crises of the Great Depression and questioned the nature of what it means to be "American." Drawing on insights from postcolonial and American studies and taking into account the intellectual and cultural dimensions of leftist politics, "The Suburb of Dissent" is the first study of the s to bring together U.S. and Canadian writings. In doing so, it reveals how the unique culture of the left contributed to North American history at this critical juncture and beyond.
