Synopsis

This book includes contributions from both Canadian academics and civil society leaders. Drawing from critical international relations theory, it examines the policy and practice of the Canadian state and civil society on indigenous approaches to the emerging human rights and peacebuilding nexus. Authors address themes including foreign policy, inclusion, international justice and corporate accountability as they relate to this nexus. In so doing, the volume fills a gap in the Canadian foreign policy literature related to peacebuilding and human rights and seeks to refine and deepen the existing literature through its exploration of policy and practice. It concludes that while Canada has developed a strong capacity to address emergent human rights and peacebuilding concerns, its ambitions are inconsistent and often overshadowed by domestic political priorities, economic interests and security concerns.
