Canadian Foreign Policy in a Unipolar World cover

Canadian Foreign Policy in a Unipolar World examines the theoretical and practical realities of a unipolar world - a system in which a single power is disproportionally dominant and influential - and asks how it affects Canadian foreign policy. Taking this model of unipolarity as their starting point, editors Michael Hawes and Christopher Kirkey, along with 17 other contributors and esteemed scholars, cover such fascinating topics as Homeland Security, Canadian development policies, and geo-engineering. Each chapter of this contemporary volume provides students with Learning Objectives and Suggested Further Resources to ensure that they can successfully navigate the various debates, and Study Questions to encourage their direct critical engagement with the material.

"Overall [this text] does have a unique contribution to existing Canadian foreign-policy textbooks. . . . it is an attempt to carve out a space that is less addressed by the other existing textbooks. . . . The overall argumentation is quite excellent, and I think there is a space for this textbook in the field." --Dan Bousfield, Western University
