Synopsis

Appropriate for introductory courses in Canadian politics at the university level.

The new edition of this award-winning text offers students a comprehensive introduction to Canadian politics within a comparative global context. It has been updated to include information up to and including the federal election of 1993. The authors structure the parts around four key political concepts - culture, institutions, behaviour, and public policy. There is substantial material on patronage and conflict of interest, and on the structure and role of the courts. Important issues such as women in politics, Canada's international peacekeeping role, Canada-U.S. relations, free trade, constitutional affairs, and policy-making in this age of budgetry restraint also receive significant treatment.
