Canadian Foreign Policy and International Economic Regimes

edited by A. Claire Cutler

tagged: trade & tariffs
Description

As the world economy is becoming increasingly global in nature, the future of Canada's welfare will directly depend on the country's response and reaction to a wide range of economic regimes which govern the international economy. This volume is an important and timely analysis of past and current Canadian policies toward both the formal and less formal arrangements which regulate such areas as international trade and financial transactions, international service industries, fisheries resources, and the environment. Often influenced by domestic political concerns and its relations with the United States, Canada has, as the authors point out, exhibited a high degree of variation in its responses to these regimes. Canadian Foreign Policy and International Economic Regimes addresses a broad range of foreign economic policies not generally considered in the foreign policy literature. Interdisciplinary in its approach, it will be of interest to those in political science and public policy, economics, and law, as well as to those involved in international business.

Editorial Reviews

The strength of the book is largely empirical, and the authors' collective accomplishment in filling a huge hole in the literature merits celebration: this book contains more essays on Canada and the international economic regimes than the rest of the existing literature combined.

— Canadian Journal of Science

The pieces add up to a very good review of Canadian foreign economic policy over a period of years and make a first-rate book.

— Foreign Affairs
