UBC PRESSDISTRIBUTED IN THE UNITED STATES BY THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON PRESSFALL / WINTER 2008One of Canada’s foremost editors will be retiring on July 31. Jean Wilson has worked in scholarly book publishing for more than forty years, including twenty years at UBC Press, where she has played a formidable role in fostering and promoting Canadian scholarship. Jean began her career as the youngest trainee editor in the history of the University of Toronto Press, remaining there for nine years. In the mid-1970s she decided to move west. After a decade of freelance work, Jean joined UBC Press in 1988, which at the time was teetering on the brink of extinction. Jean played a pivotal role in rebuilding its reputation and operational structure, turning it into one of the most respected university presses in North America, fi rst as managing editor, then as senior acquisitions editor, and more recently as associate director. Twice she served as acting director, fulfi lling that role with commitment and verve.Over her career, Jean has become Canada’s principal editor of western Canadian history and is considered by many academics in that fi eld as one of its most learned scholars. She is also a leading editor and recognized authority on BC First Nations studies, and in recent years founded UBC Press’s cutting-edge Sexuality Studies series. A strong presence on the Canadian publishing scene, Jean is a past president of the Association of Book Publishers of British Columbia and was one of the founding members and the fi rst president of the Editors’ Association of Canada.Jean’s network of scholarly contacts and friends is huge. She has been a mentor to other publishers and supportively trained the next generation of editors to continue her work. She has also advised and encouraged many a young scholar newly embarking on his or her career. Canadian scholarly publishing, and UBC Press in particular, have been marked forever by Jean Wilson’s presence.cover photoFleeting Transformationby Kakulu Saggiaktok, Courtesy Dorset Fine ArtsFrom Healing Traditions by Lawrence J.

The challenge in finding a place for Canada in the world beyond the US lies not in finding a new strategic framework but in crafting policies that suit the needs of Canadian traders, investors, humanitarians, travellers, and expatriates.Recent Canadian foreign policy has fixated upon Canada’s former status as a middle power within a small club of western, democratic states. During this period, Canada was confident both about defining its national interests and in deploying its political, financial, and human resources to pursue these goals. The emergence of a US-dominated world, an integrated North American economy, and the decline of multilateral institutions, have left Canadian foreign policy searching for new purpose and direction. Instead of a foreign policy analysis that downplays Canada’s relations with the US and seeks to promote Canada’s role as a global citizen and international boy scout, From Pride to Influence posits an interest-based analysis grounded in Canadian history, geography, and demography. It will appeal to the engaged public, practitioners, analysts, and senior undergraduate and graduate classes focused on Canadian foreign policy.Michael Hart is Simon Reisman Professor of Trade Policy, Norman Paterson School of International Affairs, and Distinguished Fellow of the Centre for Trade Policy and Law at Carleton University. He is the author of Decision at Midnight: Inside the Canada-US Free Trade Negotiations (shortlisted for the Gelber and Canadian Business Book Awards), and A Trading Nation: Canadian Trade Policy from Colonialism to Globalisation (shortlisted for the 2003 Dafoe Prize, the 2003 Purvis Award, the 2003 Donald Smiley Award, and the 2002/2003 Donner Book Prize, selected CHOICE Outstanding Academic title).ContentsPreface1 Doing Foreign Policy2 Fads, Fashions, and Competing Perspectives3 The Making of Canadian Foreign Policy4 Legacies from the Past5 The Global Search for Security6 The Global Search for Prosperity7 Ties that Bind8 Myths, Perceptions, Values, and Canada-US Relations9 Managing Relations with the United States 10 A World of Infinite Options11 Doing Foreign Policy ...

The first is that of the foreign policy pragmatist, not overly concerned with Canada’s place in the world, cognizant of the central role of the United States, and prepared to make some changes both to restore Canadian diplomatic and military capacities and to pursue an interest-based agenda in relations with the United States and the rest of the world. A second perspective reflects the views of more romantically inclined Canadians, worried about Canada’s declining role in the world, eager to embrace an activist, multilateralist, values-based agenda, and determined to make a difference in the world. Sitting in between is the quintessential Canadian trying to integrate these two competing perspectives into a seamless whole. The result is rarely satisfactory ... the stitching is all too evident and the inconsistencies too obvious.Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca2GLOBALIZATION & AUTONOMY SERIESGlobal OrderingInstitutions and Autonomy in a Changing WorldEdited by Louis W. Pauly and William D. ColemanRenegotiating CommunityInterdisciplinary Perspectives, Global ContextsEdited by Diana Brydon and William D. ColemanDespite myriad global forces influencing the lives of individuals, societies, and polities, people continue to value their personal and communal independence. They insist on shaping the conditions of their existence to the fullest extent possible. This path-breaking book examines the institutions and organizations that mediate today’s increasingly complex relationship between globalization and autonomy.Many formal and informal institutions – from the World Trade Organization to transnational legal and financial regimes to new governance arrangements for aboriginal communities in environmentally sensitive regions – are evolving, adapting to meet new challenges, or failing to adjust rapidly enough. The globalization-autonomy metric helps to interpret such developments and clarify their implications.Global Ordering convenes an inter-disciplinary group of leading scholars to re-imagine the circumstances under which integrative systemic forces may be aligned with irreducible commitments to individual and collective autonomy. Collectively, the authors of this innovative work map the new frontier of globalization studies.Louis W.

Yet there is no consensus on why community matters or how globalization affects particular communities. What seems clear, however, is that people are seeking to claim, retain, or reconsider how they define and represent themselves, live together, and determine their futures.Autonomy in this sense has become a compelling question for communities across the world. Faced with finding a liveable globalization, many communities are renegotiating their identities and functions. In some instances, entirely new communities are being formed. Renegotiating Community asks what happens to the autonomy of individuals and communities in such circumstances. Original case studies show how a range of communities are renegotiating the meanings of community and autonomy while living with, and sometimes challenging, the processes of globalization.By addressing the coercive and comforting dimensions of community and the need to reconcile conflicting claims to autonomy, this book redraws the conceptual maps through which community, globalization, and autonomy are understood.Diana Brydon is a Canada Research Chair in Globalization and Cultural Studies at the University of Manitoba.William D.

Is sustainable peace an illusion in a world where foreign military interventions are replacing peace negotiations as starting points for postwar reconstruction? What would it take to achieve durable peace in contexts as different as Afghanistan, Mozambique, and Sri Lanka?Grappling with these questions, this book presents six provocative case studies authored by respected peacebuilding practitioners in their own societies. The studies address two cases of relative success (Guatemala and Mozambique), three cases of renewed but deeply fraught efforts (Afghanistan, Haiti, and the Palestinian Territories), and the case of Sri Lanka, where peacebuilding was aborted but where the outlines of a new peace process can be discerned. The book also includes original analyses of demobilization, disarmament, and reintegration processes in three different contexts, written by teams of Northern and Southern analysts.It will interest practitioners and students of peace, security, and development studies, as well as policymakers at many levels of government.Stephen Baranyi is Principal Researcher on Conflict Prevention at the North-South Institute in Ottawa.

JensenWhen the Second World War began, Canada had no foreign intelligence capacity. Its political leaders had concluded that a clandestine service was not necessary to meet the nation’s intelligence requirements. Yet Kurt F. Jensen argues that the country was a more active intelligence partner in the wartime alliance than has previously been suggested.Drawing on newly released materials and exhaustive research, he describes Canada’s contributions to Allied intelligence before the war began, as well as the distinctly Canadian activities that started from that point. He reveals how the government created an intelligence organization during the war to aid Allied resources and established operations such as SIGINT, or Signal Intelligence, which intercepted and decrypted Vichy and Free French diplomatic communications. Cautious Beginnings spans the period from 1939 to 1951, when key policy and personnel structures were put in place. In the postwar years, Canada reconfigured its foreign intelligence operations to meet the challenges of a changing world, and by the early 1950s possessed resources that rivalled or exceeded those of many other nations. This is a convincing portrait of a nation with an active role in Second World War intelligence gathering, one that continues to influence the architecture of its current capabilities. This book will greatly interest students and academics in Canadian history, political science, military history, specialists in the field, and anyone interested in the often mysterious world of foreign intelligence.Kurt F. Jensen is a former Canadian diplomat whose assignments included work with foreign intelligence. He also teaches political science at Carleton University.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDJune 2008, 256 pages, 6 x 9”978-0-7748-1482-9 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS / HISTORYFall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca4INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS / HISTORYBrock Chisholm, the World Health Organization, and the Cold WarJohn FarleyContradictory Impulses Canada and Japan in the Twentieth CenturyEdited by Greg Donaghy and Patricia E. RoyThis is the story of a man and an institution. Brock Chisholm was one of the most influential Canadians of the twentieth century. A world-renowned psychiatrist, he was the first director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), and built it up against overwhelming political odds in the years immediately following the Second World War.During Chisholm’s lifetime, the only other Canadians as internationally prominent were Lester B. Pearson and Marshall McLuhan. Yet today he has been largely forgotten – perhaps because he was so controversial. An atheist and a fierce critic of jingoistic nationalism, he supported world peace and world government and became a champion of the United Nations and the WHO.Official histories of the WHO place the organization in a political vacuum, but John Farley focuses on the battles Chisholm and his allies waged during the early Cold War, as the United States and the Soviet Union eyed each other warily and the Roman Catholic Church flexed its muscle on morally sensitive medical issues. Post-1945 international politics, global health issues, and medical history intersect in this highly readable account of a remarkable Canadian.John Farley is retired from Dalhousie University, where he taught the history of science and medicine. He has published several books on the subject.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDJune 2008, 288 pages, 6 x 9”19 b/w photos, 14 tables978-0-7748-1476-8HC CAD 85.00 / USD 99.00Contradictory Impulses is a comprehensive study of the social, political, and economic interactions between Canada and Japan from the late nineteenth century until today. Leading scholars draw upon the most recent archival research to examine an important bilateral relationship that has matured in fits and starts over the past century.Canada’s early interest in the Asia-Pacific region was hindered by “contradictory impulses” shaping its approach. For over half a century, racist restrictions curtailed immigration from Japan, even as Canadians manoeuvred for access to the fabled wealth of the Orient. Canada’s relations with Japan have changed profoundly since then. As Contradictory Impulses explains, the two countries’ political, economic, and diplomatic interests are now closely aligned and the relationship is reinforced by social and cultural ties.Contradictory Impulses challenges our historic understanding of Canada’s place in the world. This portrait of a nation growing into its Pacific identity raises pointed questions about the future of Canada’s relations with Japan and the Pacific region. It will appeal to scholars, policymakers, and others interested in Canada’s relations with Japan and the Asia-Pacific Rim.Greg Donaghy is Head of the Historical Section at Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada.

These are the stories of three labourers who “amused themselves with drinking in good fellowship”; of Captain Thomas, a wealthy Native trader, who “called for a small bowl of punch” to treat a Scotsman; and of an “English lady with her two small children ... very genteel and respectable” in a country tavern. They speak of white soldiers frequenting LeDuc’s tavern, of Abraham Rex and William Murdoch, both black, celebrating Emancipation Day there, and of the keeper of the North American Hotel who promised “Ladies and Gentlemen” accommodation “any time they may wish to tarry.” Reconstructed from tavern-keepers’ accounts, court records, diaries, travelogues, and letters, In Mixed Company tells of time spent in mixed company and the myriad, unequal ways of finding room in tavern culture. It also challenges comfortable certainties about who belonged where in colonial society. It is recommended reading for tavern aficionados, general readers, and historians of gender, race, and culture.Julia Roberts is a member of the Department of History at the University of Waterloo. NEW TITLE Cradle to GraveA Population History of British ColumbiaJohn Douglas BelshawIn the 240 years from contact to the present, British Columbia’s population experienced transformations of a kind and magnitude witnessed nowhere else in North America. An aboriginal population running to as many as half a million people was reduced by disease to fewer than 30,000 in less than a century. Whether assessing post-contact aboriginal depopulation, settler-era sex ratios, conflict over immigration, and unusually high mortality rates, Cradle to Grave explores the exceptional circumstances of human population in the westernmost province. Provocatively, this underlying tale of population and populating reveals and explains the province’s long tradition of acting vigorously in ways meant to control and shape biological communities of humans.Cradle to Grave shows how biology and politics conspire with sex, death, and migration to create a particular kind of society. Revising the province’s master narrative associating growth with progress, John Douglas Belshaw examines aboriginal depopulation, settler-era sex ratios and nuptials, fertility patterns, immigration, and mortality. He argues that population issues have historically been situated at the centre of British Columbian public consciousness and that there is a long tradition of thought and action intended to control and shape human communities. Cradle to Grave demystifies demographics in an accessible yet scholarly and provocative way. It will appeal to scholars and students in history, sociology, geography, and Canadian Studies, as well as to general readers interested in BC history.John Douglas Belshaw is the Associate Vice-President of Education at North Island College.Cover: Overpopulation Mask, by David NeelNEW HARDCOVERDecember 2008, 320 pages, 6 x 9”26 tables, 25 figures978-0-7748-1545-1 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca6NEW TITLESuburb, Slum, Urban VillageThe Transformations of Toronto’s Parkdale Neighbourhood, 1875–2000Carolyn WhitzmanCANADIAN HISTORY / GEOGRAPHY / URBAN STUDIESThe Reluctant LandSociety, Space, and Environment in Canada before ConfederationCole HarrisThe Reluctant Land describes the evolving pattern of settlement and the changing relationships of people and land in Canada from the end of the fifteenth century to the Confederation years of the late 1860s and early 1870s.

As China underwent a tumultuous transition from dynastic kingdom to independent republic, Canadian nurses advanced a version of hospital-based nursing education and practice that rivalled modern nursing care in Canada. As the first comprehensive study of missionary nursing in China, Healing Henan will be of particular interest to nurses and missionaries, and to historians of Canada, China, nursing, medicine, women’s work, and missions.Sonya Grypma is an associate professor of nursing at Trinity Western University.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDJanuary 2008, 312 pages, 6 x 9”42 b/w photos, 1 map, 5 tables978-0-7748-1399-0 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00978-0-7748-1400-3 PB CAD 32.95 / USD 36.95Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca8Shortlisted for the 2008 BC Book Prizes Hubert Evans Non-Fiction AwardPatricia E. Roy examines the climax of antipathy to Asians in Canada: the removal of all Japanese Canadians from the BC coast in 1942. Their free return was not allowed until 1949. Yet the war also brought increased respect for Chinese Canadians: they were enfranchised in 1947, and the federal government softened its ban on Chinese immigration. The Triumph of Citizenship explains why Canada ignored the rights of Japanese Canadians and placed strict limits on Chinese immigration. It explores how Japanese Canadians and their supporters in the human rights movement managed to halt “repatriation” to Japan, and how Chinese Canadians successfully lobbied for the same rights as other Canadians to sponsor immigrants. The final triumph of citizenship came in 1967, when immigration regulations were overhauled and the last remnants of discrimination were removed. The Triumph of Citizenship reminds all Canadians of the values and limits of their citizenship; students of political history and of ethnic relations in particular will find this book compelling.Patricia E.

Voices Raised in Protest examines the meaning and impact of these actions and how they diverged in Canada and the United States.Many North Americans opposed their governments’ wartime policies toward their fellow citizens of Japanese extraction. In this timely book, Stephanie Bangarth studies the efforts and discourses of anti-internment advocates, and discusses the various cases they brought before the courts. Persons of Japanese ancestry were also active in their own defence. Their critiques of the removal and deportation policies were seminal examples of a growing general interest in civil rights, and would provide a foundation for rights activism in subsequent years.Voices Raised in Protest offers valuable perspective for today’s debates over ethnic and racial profiling, treatment of “enemy combatants,” and tensions between civil-liberty and security imperatives. It will be of interest to activists and general readers as well as to scholars and students in history, law, politics, and Asian Canadian/American studies.Stephanie Bangarth is an assistant professor of history at King’s University College at the University of Western Ontario.

It makes Japanese-language scholarship on the subject available to an English speaking audience for the first time, and also draws on interviews, diaries, community histories, biographies, and the author’s own family history.Starting with the history of the feudal fiefs of Aki and Bingo, which were merged into Hiroshima prefecture, Ayukawa describes the political, economic, and social circumstances that precipitated emigration between 1891 and 1941. She then examines the lives and experiences of those migrants who settled in western Canada.

Not until the Cold War was over could Michael Petrou get us the fascinating details of who and what and why so many Canadians struggled and died in a war the democracies made it easy for General Francisco Franco to win. – Desmond Morton, author of A Military History of Canada Between 1936 and 1939, almost 1,700 Canadians defied their government and volunteered to fight in the Spanish Civil War. They chose to leave behind punishing lives in Canadian relief camps, mines, and urban flophouses to confront fascism in a country few knew much about. Four hundred died there. Michael Petrou has drawn on recently declassified archival material, interviewed surviving Canadian veterans, and visited the battlefields of Spain to write the definitive account of Canadians in the Spanish Civil War. It reveals who these men and women were, why they volunteered, how they lived and died in Spain, and how the Canadian government and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police reacted to their decision to illegally join another country’s war.Renegades is an intimate and unflinching story of idealism and courage, duplicity and defeat. It will appeal to anyone interested in the history of Canada, the Spanish Civil War, and the struggle between democracy and totalitarianism in the 1930s. Michael Petrou is a foreign correspondent at Maclean’s magazine and holds a doctorate in modern history from the University of Oxford. STUDIES IN CANADIAN MILITARY HISTORYPublished in Association with the Canadian War MuseumNEW TITLECrisis of ConscienceConscientious Objection in Canada during the First World WarAmy J. ShawThe First World War’s appalling death toll and the corresponding need for sacrifice on the homefront led to Canada’s first experience of overseas conscription. The backlash against enforced military service in Quebec was seen as a great threat to the wartime vision of national unity. This has obscured the important role of those who saw military service as incompatible with their religious or ethical beliefs.This study of the experience of conscientious objectors offers insight into evolving attitudes about the rights and responsibilities of citizenship during a key period of Canadian nation building. A claim of conscientious exemption to a war widely seen as holy was difficult both for the individual to make and for wider Canadian society to understand. The negative stereotype of the conscientious objector illuminates expectations of appropriate masculine behaviour, while encompassing a sense that the claims of certain individuals and denominations were more justifiable than others.Crisis of Conscience is the first and only book about the Canadian pacifists who refused to fight in the Great War. It will appeal to readers interested in Canadian military and peace history. The book is also relevant to those concerned with questions of voluntarism and obligation in a democratic society, and issues of gender history and minority freedom and identity.Amy J. Shaw is an assistant professor in the Department of History at the University of Lethbridge.STUDIES IN CANADIAN MILITARY HISTORYPublished in Association with the Canadian War MuseumNEW HARDCOVEROctober 2008, 240 pages, 6 x 9”978-0-7748-1593-2 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDApril 2008, 304 pages, 6 x 9”32 b/w photos, 2 maps978-0-7748-1417-1 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00978-0-7748-1418-8 PB CAD 24.95 / USD 27.95order online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 11HISTORY / SOCIAL WELFARECanada’s Rights Revolution Social Movements and Social Change, 1937–82 Dominique Clément Canada’s Rights Revolution is a major contribution to the historical and sociological literature on human rights in Canada. It is comprehensive, well organized, and makes a persuasive argument about the nature of human rights activism through the framework of social movements theory.– Brian Howe, author of Restraining Equality: Human Rights Commissions in Canada Rights advocacy is a topic of immense practical and historical significance. Dominique Clément does Canadian researchers a great service with this impressive historical analysis of leading social-movement organizations that have made rights advocacy their stated aim. This is important and original scholarship, to be sure.– Matt James, author of Misrecognized Materialists: Social Movements in Canadian Constitutional Politics In the first major study of postwar social movement organizations in Canada, Dominique Clément provides a history of the human rights movement as seen through the eyes of two generations of activists. Drawing on newly acquired archival sources, extensive interviews, and materials released through access to information applications, Clément explores the history of four organizations – the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association, Ligue des droits de l’homme, the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, and the Newfoundland-Labrador Human Rights Association – that emerged in the sixties and evolved into powerful lobbies for human rights despite bitter internal disputes and intense rivalries. Dominique Clément is an assistant professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Alberta. NEW TITLEFrom Rights to NeedsA History of Family Allowances in Canada, 1929–92Raymond BlakeFrom Rights to Needs examines the history of family allowances in Canada from their debut in the House of Commons in 1929 to their demise under the Mulroney Government in 1992. Focusing on the historical-political question of how policies are made, Raymond Blake traces the discourse around family allowances through the machinations of political parties, the Ottawa bureaucracy, and federal-provincial relations. Situating family allowances within a wider discussion of Canadian federalism, citizenship, and social rights in Canada, Blake shows that even after administrators realized the allowance program was becoming ineffective, changes came slowly because politicians feared a heavy political toll. He also traces why and how the Mulroney Conservatives finally made changes to family allowances, making them more selective, and heralding a change from an emphasis on universality to one of selectivity in Canadian social policy. From Rights to Needs is a nuanced and comprehensive exploration of the origins and development of family allowances. It will appeal to readers in the public policy community; students and scholars in political science, history, social work, and sociology; and general readers interested in the history and politics of Canadian welfare.Raymond Blake is a professor of history at the University of Regina. He is the author and editor of several books, including The Trajectories of Rural Life: New Perspectives on Rural Canada, and Canadians at Last: The Integration of Newfoundland as a Province.

How did this come about? What were the motives and methods of the people involved in both countries? Why did it come to an end? What effects did it have on the children involved and what eventually became of them? These are the questions Roy Parker explores in a meticulously researched work that brings together economic, political, social, medical, legal, administrative, and religious aspects of the story in Britain and Canada. He concludes with a moving review of evidence from more recent survivors of child migration, discussing the lifelong effects of their experiences with the help of modern psychological insights.His book – humane and highly professional – will capture and hold the interest of academics, practitioners, and general readers. It will also appeal to generations of descendants of the children around whom this study revolves.Roy Parker is Professor Emeritus of Social Policy at the University of Bristol.

Young wage-earning women – “working girls” – embodied all that was unnerving and unnatural about modern times: the disintegration of the family, the independence of women, and the unwholesomeness of city life. These anxieties were amplified in the West. Using an innovative interpretive approach that centres on literary representation, Lindsey McMaster takes a fresh look at the working heroine of western Canadian literature alongside social documents and newspaper accounts of her real-life counterparts.

Originally from Cape Breton, MacLean sailed to the Pacific side of North America when he was just twenty-one and worked there for thirty-five years as a sailor and sealer. His achievements and escapades while in the Victoria fleet in the 1880s laid the foundation for his status as a folk hero. Although MacLean is a colourful character both in his own right and as mythologized by London, his biography reveals more than the construction of a legend. Don MacGillivray opens a window onto the complex world of pelagic sealing in the North Pacific. MacLean’s story will appeal to maritime historians, historians of the Pacific Northwest, and readers interested in the history of sealing, international relations, and environmental politics.Don MacGillivray is a professor of history at Cape Breton University.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDMay 2008, 376 pages, 6 x 9”11 b/w photos978-0-7748-1471-3 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00At the Far Reaches of EmpireThe Life of Juan Francisco de la Bodega y QuadraFreeman M.

Dombrowski, author of The Philosophy of VegetarianismThe issue of our ethical obligations to nonhuman animals has been the subject of lively debate, and many books have been written on the subject. Sins of the Flesh will be an important addition to this literature.– Steve F. Sapontzis, author of Morals, Reason, and AnimalsUnlike previous books on this topic, Sins of the Flesh examines the history of vegetarianism in its ethical dimensions from the origins of humanity through to the present.Full ethical consideration for animals resulting in the eschewing of flesh arose after the Aristotelian period in Greece and recurred in Ancient Rome, but then mostly disappeared for centuries. Despite the occasional presence of ascetic and cultural vegetarianism, it was not until the turn of the nineteenth century that vegetarian thought was revived and enjoyed some success. It subsequently went into another period of decline that lasted through much of the twentieth century. The authority-questioning cultural revolution of the 1960s brought a fresh resurgence of vegetarian ethics that continues to the present day.Sins of the Flesh is a ground-breaking history of ethical vegetarianism that will appeal to all readers concerned with human-animal relations and the foundations of animal rights.Rod Preece is Professor Emeritus at Wilfrid Laurier University.Awe for the Tiger, Love for the LambA Chronicle of Sensibility to AnimalsBecause it is so well researched, Preece’s book will interest scholars in this field.

It makes a very significant contribution to the field, both by demonstrating to environmental historians that Northern topics are of broader interest and by providing Northern historians with an impressively detailed illustration of the importance of environmental perspectives.– Ken Coates, Professor of History and Dean of Arts at the University of WaterlooCanada’s subarctic industrialization relied upon its large northwest lakes: Winnipeg, Athabasca, Great Slave, and Great Bear. Between 1921 and 1960, these lakes comprised a seam in the Canadian interior where industrial economies took root, transgressing political geographies and superseding the historically dominant fur trade. Industrialization reshaped the relationship of humans to nature in subarctic Canada. Uranium and gold mining operations, fishing, and transport companies adapted to subarctic extremes, hewing closely to the inanimate features of the material world: minerals, fossil fuels, and waters. The state and private enterprise imported southern scientists and sojourning labourers to work the northwest, and its industrial history bears these newcomers’ imprint.The Industrial Transformation of Subarctic Canada reveals the history of human impact upon the North. It provides a baseline, grounded in historical and scientific evidence, for measuring subarctic environmental change. Liza Piper examines the sustainability of industrial economies, the value of resource exploitation in volatile ecosystems, and the human consequences of northern environmental change. She also addresses northern communities’ historic resistance to external resource development and their fight for survival in the face of intensifying environmental and economic pressures.This rich environmental history will appeal to historians, geographers, and environmentalists interested in industrialization, resource management, and the Canadian North.Liza Piper is an assistant professor of history at the University of Alberta.NATURE | HISTORY | SOCIETY SERIESorder online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 17ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORYHunting for Empire Narratives of Sport in Rupert’s Land, 1840–70Greg GillespieThis work provides an innovative examination of material not often covered in Canadian historiography.

As far as I know, it is unique as a grand survey of the Cree. Yet it’s more than survey; it is something I would call “beautiful.” Also elegant. It is a Grand Unified Theory of people vis-à-vis the land. – Calvin Luther Martin, author, Keepers of the Game: Indian-Animal Relationships and the Fur Trade.The James Bay Cree lived in relative isolation until 1970, when Northern Quebec was swept up in the political and cultural changes of the Quiet Revolution. The ensuing years have brought immense change for the Cree, who now live with the consequences of Quebec’s massive development of hydroelectricity, timber, and mineral resources in the North. The Cree’s fight to protect their land against this tide of development is emblematic of First Nations’ struggles for rights in Canada and elsewhere in North America.Home Is the Hunter presents the historical, environmental, and cultural context from which this recent story grows. By investigating the Cree’s relationship with the land and their 300 years of contact with fur traders, missionaries, and other outsiders, Hans Carlson illuminates the process of cultural negotiation at the foundation of ongoing political and environmental debates. He details the Cree’s integration into North American economies and politics alongside their attempts to remain culturally and environmentally distinct. Home Is the Hunter is more than a story of dam building and industrial logging; it offers a way of thinking about all Native peoples and about environmental justice in the current political climate.

The FSC was born in 1993 as a grassroots initiative with the goal “to promote environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the world’s forests” through an international system of forest certification.The establishment of an FSC standard for British Columbia was achieved only after difficult and protracted negotiations at the regional, national, and global levels. The authors use their pioneering case study of this process to explore the challenges associated with implementing the FSC’s global vision. The book also undertakes a comparative analysis of FSC standards and standard-setting processes in different regions, and extends its horizon to reflect on the implications of the FSC experience for global governance and regulatory theory.Chris Tollefson is a professor of law at the University of Victoria.

EinsiedelAn important contribution to scholars interested in the philosophy of science, science studies, and policy/decision-making processes around new technologies.– Toby A. Ten Eyck, Department of Sociology, Michigan State UniversityNew technologies emerge all the time. Some technologies, however, are transformative: they introduce new forms of control, both through formal systems of regulation and by informally shaping our behaviour. They have profound impacts and are often disruptive, affect the way we work and play, influence our mobility and lifestyle. They offer hope and possibility while introducing new fears and unintended consequences. How should we think about these radical technologies? Too often our social reactions to new technologies occur only in hindsight, after the technology has penetrated the marketplace. However, recent experience teaches that much may be gained by practising forethought and foresight. Contributors to this collection examine the development, impact, and governance of new technologies emerging from a variety of fields, including biotechnology, genetics, stem cell research, pharmacology, and nanotechnology.Emerging Technologies addresses the ethical, legal, and social dimensions of emerging technologies and assesses their social and policy implications.

In farming systems across the country, effective risk management is necessary to deal with drought, flooding, and extreme weather, and to adapt to altered climate and weather conditions. Unfortunately, climate change risks and opportunities are not always well understood among researchers and policy makers in the Canadian agri-food sector. This book addresses that gap. Farming in a Changing Climate provides a wide-ranging synopsis of what climate change means for Canadian agriculture, explores different approaches to the topic, and presents examples of current research. It covers all agricultural regions and a wide variety of commodity production and farm-ing systems. Comments from agricultural producers and policy makers add a practical component to the book and emphasize the value of the applied research. This comprehensive survey synthesizes twenty years of research on climate change and Canadian agriculture. The book will be of interest to scholars in environmental studies, geography, and sociology; policy analysts and policy makers; and representa-tives of the agri-food industry.

It clearly illustrates the multiple dimensions involved, the lack of easy solutions, and the many defensible positions that one can take. Law and Religious Pluralism in Canada will contribute significantly to the literature and debates on this pressing issue.– Peter Beyer is a Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Ottawa and the author of Religions in Global SocietyThis book examines the complex, often uneasy, relationship between law and religion in a democracy that is committed to equal citizenship and religious pluralism. It seeks to elucidate the relationship between these different normative systems and to understand the impact of law on religious diversity in Canada. The contributors to Law and Religious Pluralism in Canada consider the role of religious belief and values in public decision-making, government support for religious practices, and the regulation of minority religious practices. They address these themes in a variety of contexts and from a variety of vantage points, examining such current issues as the legal recognition of sharia arbitration, the re-definition of civil marriage, and the accommodation of religious practice in schools. In recent years these issues have become the subject of significant interest and controversy in Canada and elsewhere. Law and Religious Pluralism in Canada will appeal to lawyers, legal academics, political scientists, religious studies scholars, and anyone interested in the issue of religion in the public sphere.

Berger, and A.R. BuckThis collection of essays by Canada’s and Australasia’s most accomplished legal historians is a “must” for academic libraries and those who share these scholars’ interest in the legal culture of the British colonial world. – Peter Karsten, author of Between Law and Custom: “High” and “Low” Legal Cultures in the Lands of the British Diaspora, 1600-1900The Grand Experiment reveals how local life and culture in selected colonies interacted with the rule of law that accompanied the British colonial project. This rich account of the “incomplete implementation of the British constitution” in the colonies explores themes of legal translation, local understandings, judicial biography, and law at the boundaries – and reveals how far colonial legal history has come during the past two decades.Contributors examine the legal cultures of colonies or former colonies in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, with an occasional comparative glance at other colonial societies, such as South Africa and certain United States jurisdictions. They cover a diversity of topics, including dower, prohibition, libel law, the authority of masters on the high seas, the clash of colonial and indigenous legal regimes, circuits courts, “men of law,” and the extent to which British courts took note of the decisions made by courts in settler dominions.Rich in empirical detail and analytical reach, The Grand Experiment is a detailed look at the heart of the colonial legal enterprise. It will be of interest to lawyers, scholars, and students seeking to understand the relationship between British colonial legal institutions and the life and culture of the settler societies in which they took root.Hamar Foster is a professor of law at the University of Victoria.Benjamin L.

In The New Lawyer, Julie Macfarlane explores the evolving role of practitioners, articulating legal and ethical complexities in a variety of contexts drawn from Canadian and American legal literature as well as from her own empirical research.

Moreover, it is a vital contribution to the current political debates regarding the best approaches to deal with the “drug problem” … Moore’s work is original and will stimulate theoretical and political debates on current practices of rehabilitation or treatment in the criminal justice system.– Dany Lacombe, Professor of Sociology, Simon Fraser UniversityDrawing on theoretical tools inspired by Foucault, Latour, and Goffman, Criminal Artefacts casts doubt on the assumption that drugs lie at the heart of crime. Case studies from drug treatment courts and addiction treatment programs illustrate the tensions between law and psychology, treatment and punishment, and conflicting theories of addiction. By looking at the criminal addict as an artefact of criminal justice, this book asks us to question why the criminalized drug user has become such a focus of contemporary criminal justice practices.

HarrisLament for a First NationThe Williams Treaties of Southern OntarioPeggy J. BlairIn this important and original book, Douglas Harris demonstrates the vital connection between fisheries and reserve creation in British Columbia. In addition to providing fresh historical insights, this work has significant implications for contemporary Aboriginal land and fishing rights. Eloquently written in an accessible style, Landing Native Fisheries will appeal to historians and geographers, and will also serve as a valuable resource for First Nations, government officials, lawyers, and other readers who want to understand the policies that set the stage for present-day litigation and treaty negotiations.– Kent McNeil, author of Common Law Aboriginal Title Landing Native Fisheries reveals the contradictions and consequences of an Indian land policy premised on access to fish, on one hand, and a program of fisheries management intended to open the resource to newcomers, on the other. Beginning with the first treaties signed on Vancouver Island between 1850 and 1854, Douglas Harris maps the connections between the colonial land policy and the law governing the fisheries. In so doing, Harris rewrites the history of colonial dispossession in British Columbia, offering a new and nuanced examination of the role of law in the consolidation of power within the colonial state.Douglas C. Harris is a member of the Faculty of Law at the University of British Columbia and the author of Fish, Law, and Colonialism: The Legal Capture of Salmon in British Columbia.

No other First Nations in Canada have ever been found to have willingly surrendered similar rights.Peggy J. Blair gives the Howard decision considerable context. She examines federal and provincial bickering over “special rights” for Aboriginal peoples and notes how Crown policies toward Indian rights changed as settlement pressures increased. Blair argues that the Canadian courts caused a serious injustice by applying erroneous cultural assumptions in their interpretation of the evidence. In particular, they confused provincial government policy, which has historically favoured public over special rights, with the understanding of the parties at the time.Blair demonstrates that when American courts applied the same legal principles as their Canadian counterparts to a case involving similar facts, they reached the opposite conclusion. Lament for a First Nation convincingly demonstrates that what the Canadian courts considered to be strong and conclusive proof of surrender was in fact based on almost no evidence at all. Peggy J.

In Canada, issues of protection, appropriation, and repatriation have sometimes been addressed through negotiation. However, the legal environment for negotiation is sometimes dated, often uncertain, and always complex. First Nations Cultural Heritage and Law is an interdisciplinary volume exploring selected First Nations perspectives on cultural heritage and issues of reform within and beyond Western law. Written in plain language and in collaboration with First Nation partners, it contains seven case studies featuring indigenous concepts, legal orders, and encounters with legislation and negotiations; a national review essay; three chapters reflecting on major themes; and a self-reflective critique on the challenges of collaborative and intercultural research.

In Canada, issues concerning repatriation and trade of material culture, heritage site protection, treatment of ancestral remains, and control over intangible heritage are governed by a complex and uncertain legal and policy environment. A companion to First Nations Cultural Heritage and Law, this collection discusses key features of US and international law influencing Canada. Legal and extra-legal avenues for reform are examined, including ethics codes, research protocols, institutional policies, human rights law, and First Nation legal orders.

Next to the pathological Indian, the lazy “Indian” is the most persistent and damaging stereotype with which we have to contend. Makúk will be one of the most important books on aboriginal history written in Canada.– Mary Ellen Kelm, author of Colonizing Bodies: Aboriginal Health and Healing in Canada, 1900-50The history of aboriginal-settler interactions in Canada continues to haunt the national imagination. Despite billions of dollars spent on the “Indian problem,” Aboriginal people remain the poorest in the country. Because the stereotype of the “lazy Indian” is never far from the surface, many Canadians wonder if the problem lies with “Indians” themselves.John Lutz traces Aboriginal people’s involvement in the new economy, and their displacement from it, from the arrival of the first Europeans to the 1970s. Drawing on an extensive array of oral histories, manuscripts, newspaper accounts, biographies, and statistical analysis, Lutz shows that Aboriginal people flocked to the workforce and prospered in the late nineteenth century. He argues that the roots of today’s widespread unemployment and “welfare dependency” date only from the 1950s, when deliberate and inadvertent policy choices -- what Lutz terms the “white problem” drove Aboriginal people out of the capitalist, wage, and subsistence economies, offering them welfare as “compensation.”Makúk invites readers into a dialogue with the past with visual imagery and an engaging narrative that gives a voice to Aboriginal people and other historical figures. It is a book for students, scholars, policymakers, and a wide public who care to bring the spectres of the past into the light of the present. John Sutton Lutz teaches in the Department of History at the University of Victoria.Kiumajut [Talking Back]Game Management and Inuit Rights, 1900–70Peter Kulchyski and Frank James TesterKiumajut [Talking Back] examines Inuit relations with the Canadian state, with a particular focus on two interrelated issues. The first is how a deeply flawed set of scientific practices for counting animal populations led policymakers to develop policies and laws intended to curtail the activities of Inuit hunters. Animal management informed by this knowledge became a justification for attempts to educate and, ultimately, to regulate Inuit hunters. The second issue is Inuit responses to the emerging regime of government intervention. The authors look closely at resulting court cases and rulings, as well as Inuit petitions. The activities of the first Inuit community council are also examined in exploring how Inuit began to “talk back” to the Canadian state.The authors’ award-winning previous collaboration, Tammarniit [Mistakes]: Inuit Relocation in the Eastern Arctic 1939-63, focused on government responsibility, social welfare, and relocation in Inuit relations with the state. Kiumajut is not a continuation of Tammarniit, but rather an interrelated, stand-alone study that examines a separate range of issues relevant to a historical understanding of community development in Nunavut. Kiumajut draws on new material compiled from archival sources and from an archive of oral interviews conducted by the authors with Inuit elders and others between 1997 and 1999. This volume provides the reader with new and important insights for understanding this critical period in the history of Inuit in Canada.Peter Kulchyski is a professor in the Department of Native Studies at the University of Manitoba.

I believe it will be important for scholars as well as practitioners in First Nations and Indian Affairs.– Mark Dickerson, author of Whose North? What happens to a First Nation after the successful negotiation of a land claim? Navigating Neoliberalism argues that neoliberalism, which drives government policy concerning First Nations in Canada, can also drive self-determination. And in a globalizing world, new opportunities for indigenous governance may transform socioeconomic well-being.Gabrielle Slowey studies the development of First Nations governance in health, education, economic development, and housing. What emerges is a case study of one First Nation, the Mikisew Cree, as it navigates its way through neoliberalism. Slowey shows how the Mikisew First Nation has successfully exploited opportunities for greater autonomy and well-being that the current political and economic climate has presented.Navigating Neoliberalism tackles a topical issue central to Canadian politics and Canadian federalism. It will be of interest to students and practitioners of public policy, political economy, and political science, as well as members and leaders in First Nations communities.Gabrielle Slowey teaches in the Department of Political Science at York University.

As the first study of political culture in Nunavut, it is very satisfying that so much information has been gathered and analyzed. It will be of great interest to residents and students of Nunavut, and will certainly be used by the larger community of scholars interested in territorial political development, Indigenous governance, and the relationship of political and institutional change in general. – Frances Abele, School of Public Policy and Administration, Carleton University, and former Deputy Director of Research for the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples Nunavut: Rethinking Political Culture explores the complex processes at work in the generation of political cultures. Drawing upon extensive fieldwork and quantitative analysis, it provides the first systematic, empirical study of political life in Nunavut, offering comprehensive analysis of the evolving nature of aboriginal self-government in the Arctic and shedding crucial light on Inuit--non-Inuit relations.Political culture in Nunavut has long been characterized by different approaches to political life: traditional Inuit attitudes toward governance, federal aspirations for the political integration of Inuit, and territorial strategies for institutional development. Ailsa Henderson links these features to contemporary political attitudes and behaviour, concluding that a distinctive political culture is emerging in Nunavut.Original and provocative, Nunavut explores political attitudes, behaviour, and institutions in Nunavut before, during, and after the creation of the new territory, challenging our understandings of how political cultures are generated and sustained.This book will appeal to political scientists, sociologists, and others interested in culture and politics, Aboriginal studies, and northern development.Ailsa Henderson is an assistant professor of political science at the University of Toronto.

DionScholarly depictions of the history of Aboriginal people in Canada have changed dramatically since the 1970s when Arthur J. (“Skip”) Ray entered the field. New Histories for Old examines this transformation while extending the scholarship on Canada’s Ab-original history in new directions.The collection combines essays by promi-nent senior historians, geographers, and anthropologists with contributions by new voices in these fields. The chapters reflect the core themes studied by Ray himself, including Native struggles for land and resources under colonialism, the fur trade, “Indian” policy and treaties, mobility and migration, disease and well-being, and Na-tive-newcomer relations.This book sheds new light on the history of scholarship on Canada’s Aboriginal past and the leading role played by one of Canada’s foremost historians. It also provides a fascinating snapshot of the lines of inquiry pursued by emerging scholars in the field.New Histories for Old is a major contribution to understanding Native-newcomerrelations, Native struggles for land and resources under colonialism, “Indian” policy and treaties, mobility and migration, disease and well-be-ing, and questions about “doing” Native his-tory. It will appeal to scholars and students in history, Native studies, geography, anthropol-ogy, and related fields. Ted Binnema is an associate professor of history at the University of Northern British Columbia. Susan Neylan is an associate professor of history at Wilfrid Laurier University. This book proposes a new pedagogy for addressing Aboriginal subject material that shifts the focus from an essentializing or “othering” exploration of the attributes of Aboriginal peoples to a focus on historical experiences informing our understanding of contemporary relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples. Susan Dion takes up questions of (re)presenting the lived experiences of Aboriginal people in the service of pedagogy. Investigating what happened when the stories were taken up in history classrooms, she illustrates how our investments in particular identities structure how we hear and what we are “willing to know.”Braiding Histories illuminates the challenges of speaking/listening and writing/reading across cultural boundaries as an Aboriginal person to communicate Aboriginal experience through education. It will be useful to teachers and students of educational and Native Studies and will appeal to readers seeking a better understanding of colonialism and Aboriginal/non-Aboriginal relations.Susan D. Dion is a professor in the Faculty of Education at York University.

A member of the Athapaskan family of languages, the language has some intriguing characteristics of consonant-vowel interaction, the details of which have been in dispute among scholars. Witsuwit’en Grammar presents acoustic studies of several aspects of Witsuwit’en phonetics, including vowel quality, vowel quantity, ejectives, voice quality, and stress. Information about the sound system and word structure of Witsuwit’en is also provided, revealing many unusual features not previously described in this level of detail for an Athapaskan language.

With the arrival of the fur trade, the French of the engagés or voyageurs provided additional vocabulary and a set of viable cultural practices, a key element of which was marital bonding with Indian and métisse women. These women and their children were the first fluent speakers of Wawa. After several decades of contact, ensuing epidemics brought demographic collapse to the Chinookans. Within another decade the region was radically transformed by the Oregon Trail. Wawa had acquired its present shape, but lost its homeland. It became a diaspora language in which many communities seek some trace of their past. A previously unpublished glossary of Wawa circa 1825 is included as an appendix to this volume.Making Wawa will attract the attention of linguists, especially those involved in contact linguistics and the languages of the Pacific Northwest. It will also interest historians and other scholars interested in Native and gender studies, cross-cultural conflict, and transculturation.

This collection addresses the origins of mental problems and culturally appropriate and effective responses for mental health services and promotion. Healing Traditions is not a handbook of practice but a starting point for thinking critically about current issues. The book is divided into four sections: an introduction to the mental health of Indigenous peoples; origins and representations of social suffering; transformations of identity and community; and traditional healing and mental health services. Cross-cutting themes include the impact of colonialism, sedentarization, and forced assimilation, the importance of land for indigenous identity and an ecocentric self, notions of space and place as part of the cultural matrix of identity and experience, and processes of healing and spirituality as sources of resilience. Offering a unique combination of mental health and socio-cultural perspectives, Healing Traditions will be useful to readers in Aboriginal communities and to health professionals, educators, community workers, educators, politicians, social scientists, and students.

Chan and Donald FisherThe Exchange University critically examines the increasing commercialization of today’s academy. Universities are under increas-ing economic pressure to develop human capital, science, and technology in support of Canada’s need for economic restructuring and international competitiveness. Market relations and knowledge economies have become keywords in university debates over research and academic priorities, while privatization reveals tensions between pub-lic and private sectors.How are universities responding to pressure for capital accumulation, research com-mercialization, technology transfer, and academic capitalism? These external forces create fractures in today’s universities by weakening boundaries separating academy and industry. Furthermore, through legisla-tion and policy, governments have created quasi-markets that encourage institutional competition both within the public sphere and between public and private sectors. The Exchange University addresses crucial questions facing today’s university, includ-ing the commercialization of research and teaching; intensifying government-uni-versity relationships; marketization and commodification; and policy and functional responses within the academy. The book will interest practitioners, students, and academics in educational studies, policy studies, and higher education. Adrienne S.

Yet analysts have devoted little attention to the management of parks and protected areas. In Taking the Air, Paul Kopas takes a comprehensive approach to this aspect of policy debate. He scrutinizes the policy-making process for national parks since the mid-1950s and interrogates the rationale and policies that have governed their administration.Kopas argues that national parks and park policy reflect not only environmental concerns but also the political and social attitudes of bureaucrats, citizens, interest groups, Aboriginal peoples, and legal authorities. He explores how the goals of each group have been shaped by the historical context of park policy, influencing the shape and weight of their contributions.

Nevertheless, the OECD plays an important role in the emerging structure of global governance, even though it lacks the regulatory or financial power of some other international organizations. It performs a number of important functions: contributing to consensus formation and dissemination of best policy practices; enhancing transparency around policy; and applying moral suasion to encourage member states to comply with its “expert” injunctions.Focusing upon the OECD’s core functions, contributors to this volume trace the OECD’s history, structure, and role in international governance as well as its role as a “policy ideas generator” and purveyor of “best practices” in a variety of economic and social policy domains.The OECD and Transnational Governance fills an important gap in the literature on global governance and will be of interest to academics, students, and practitioners in a variety of disciplines, including international studies, political science, sociology, and business.Rianne Mahon is Chancellor’s professor and Director of the Institute of Political Economy at Carleton University in Ottawa.

White, Richard Simeon, Robert Vipond, and Jennifer WallnerOver the past decade, the study of Canadian politics has changed profoundly. The introspective, insular, and largely atheoretical style that informed Canadian political science for most of the postwar period has given way to a deeper engagement with, and integration into, the global field of comparative politics. This volume is the first sustained attempt to describe, analyze, and assess the “comparative turn” in Canadian political science. Canada’s engagement with comparative politics is examined with a focus on three central questions: In what ways, and how successfully, have Canadian scholars contributed to the study of comparative politics? How does the study of the Canadian case have the unique potential to advance the comparative discipline? Finally, can Canadian practice and policy be reproduced in other countries? The depth and scope of analysis in The Comparative Turn will inform graduate students and scholars. Its accessible style will make the book useful to undergraduate courses in Canadian and comparative politics and to other readers interested in these topics. Linda A.

The contributors to Bringing the Passions Back In answer this timely question by carefully rereading the classic theorists and showing how they help us see the many complex and formative roles the passions play, yet which tend to be overlooked in contemporary political thought. This is an important contribution to an expanding field of political theory and philosophy. – James Tully, co-editor of Rethinking the Foundations of Modern Political Theory One of contemporary political theory’s greatest weaknesses is its neglect of the role of passion and emotion in politics.

Covering eleven cities as well as Canada’s Parliament, it breaks new ground by assessing the representation of diverse identity groups across multiple levels of government. The book begins by introducing the literature on electoral representation and the main concepts and frameworks underlying research on immigrants, women, and minorities. Using survey and census data, its chapters provide snapshots of officials elected at municipal, provincial, and federal levels, and compares these to portraits of the general population. The volume concludes by reviewing key findings and discussing patterns of over- and under-representation in Canadian government.Electoral representation is an important indicator of a democracy’s health, yet there is limited research on how well elected representatives reflect the characteristics of voters.

Cunningham Jr., CHOICEThe Inner Bird introduces readers to the avian skeleton, then moves beyond anatomy to discuss the relationships between birds and dinosaurs and other early ancestors. Gary Kaiser examines the challenges scientists face in understanding avian evolution – even recent advances in biomolecular genetics have failed to provide a clear evolutionary story. Using examples from recently discovered fossils of birds and near-birds, Kaiser describes an avian history based on the gradual abandonment of dinosaur-like characteristics, and the related acquisition of avian characteristics such as sophisticated flight techniques and the production of large eggs. Such developments have enabled modern birds to invade the oceans and to exploit habitats that excluded dinosaurs for millions of years.While ornithology is a complex discipline that draws on many fields, it is nevertheless burdened with obsolete assumptions and archaic terminology. The Inner Bird offers modern interpretations for some of those ideas and links them to more current research. It should help anyone interested in birds to bridge the gap between long-dead fossils and the challenges faced by living species.Gary W. Kaiser has worked as a biologist for Environment Canada and the Nature Conservancy of Canada, and as an independent researcher.

Small, Birding MagazineIn this gorgeous book, celebrated natural history writer and wildlife photographer Wayne Lynch reveals the secrets of these elusive species with stunning photographs, personal anecdotes, and accessible science. The photos alone are masterpieces. Unlike most published owl photos, the majority of these were taken in the wild – a product of the author-photographer’s incredible knowledge and patience.Lynch complements the photos with facts about anatomy, habitat, diet, and family life. For each of nineteen species inhabiting Canada and the United States, he provides a range map and a brief discussion of its distribution, population size, and status. Lynch debunks myths about owls’ “supernatural” powers of sight and hearing, discusses courtship rituals, and offers personal tips for finding them in the wild. Wayne Lynch is the author of numerous award-winning books and television documentaries. One of Canada’s most widely published photographers, his books include Wild Birds across the Prairies, Mountain Bears, and Penguins of the World.

At the height of steamship travel in the late 1800s and early 1900s, passengers enjoyed a sit-down dinner served on china with silver flatware. Today, the only places you can still find this china is at flea markets and antique shops or by diving at old dock sites and on shipwrecks. Pacific Coast Ship China identifies and dates shipping china used along the Pacific Coast of North America. It covers china used on vessels and in-shore establishments of shipping organizations registered in Alaska, the Yukon Territory, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, and Hawaii; it describes patterns used in coastal, intercoastal, and transpacific services. In addition to passenger vessels, it documents the china used by freighter operations, oil companies, government services, and yacht clubs.This easy-to-use guide identifies more than 280 china patterns. It provides collectors, museum technicians, divers, history buffs, and anyone else interested in identifying and dating Pacific Coast ship china with all the information they need. It also includes brief descriptions of 59 Pacific Coast shipping companies.Pacific Coast Ship ChinaJacques MarcJacques MarcROYAL BRITISH COLUMBIA MUSEUMOctober 2008, 240 pages, 8-1/2 x 10”400+ colour and 60 b/w photographs978-0-7726-5979-8 HC CAD 75.00 / USD 80.00Above: The Admiral Line logo mark Left: ship dining roomorder online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 41Imagining Head-Smashed-InAboriginal Buffalo Hunting on the Northern PlainsJack W. BrinkA model of ecological history that will have broad appeal for scholarly and general interested readers. – Janice Dickin, Communication and Culture, University of CalgaryFor millennia, Aboriginal hunters on the North American Plains used their knowledge of the land and animal behaviour to drive their quarry over cliffs. Archaeologist Jack Brink has written a major study of the mass buffalo hunts and the culture they supported before and after European contact. He draws on his 25 years excavating at Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump in southwestern Alberta, Canada, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.Jack W. Brink is Archaeology Curator at the Royal Alberta Museum in Edmonton, Canada. He received his B.A. from the University of Minnesota and his M.A. from the University of Alberta.

Cross-breeding experiments with bison and domestic cattle proved unfruitful. Attempts at commercializing the herd had no success. Ultimately, the Department of National Defence repurposed the park for military training and the bison disappeared once more.This book sheds light on the history of Canada’s national parks, bison recovery efforts, and environmental thought in the first half of the twentieth century.Jennifer Brower received her M.A. from the Department of History and Classics at the University of Alberta. She is currently working at the Buffalo National Park Foundation in Wainwright, Alberta.

Since 1912, archetypal “Cowboys and Indians” are seen again and again at the chuckwagon races, on the midway, and throughout Calgary. Each essay in this collection examines a facet of the experience, from the images on advertising posters to the ritual of the annual parade.

In his writings as “Tex,” Vernon-Wood created an image of the frontier that blended the West of his guiding experiences with the West as a literary object.

Jean Wilson has worked in scholarly book publishing for more than forty years, including twenty years at UBC Press, where she has played a formidable role in fostering and promoting Canadian scholarship. Jean began her career as the youngest trainee editor in the history of the University of Toronto Press, remaining there for nine years. In the mid-1970s she decided to move west. After a decade of freelance work, Jean joined UBC Press in 1988, which at the time was teetering on the brink of extinction. Jean played a pivotal role in rebuilding its reputation and operational structure, turning it into one of the most respected university presses in North America, fi rst as managing editor, then as senior acquisitions editor, and more recently as associate director. Twice she served as acting director, fulfi lling that role with commitment and verve.Over her career, Jean has become Canada’s principal editor of western Canadian history and is considered by many academics in that fi eld as one of its most learned scholars. She is also a leading editor and recognized authority on BC First Nations studies, and in recent years founded UBC Press’s cutting-edge Sexuality Studies series. A strong presence on the Canadian publishing scene, Jean is a past president of the Association of Book Publishers of British Columbia and was one of the founding members and the fi rst president of the Editors’ Association of Canada.Jean’s network of scholarly contacts and friends is huge. She has been a mentor to other publishers and supportively trained the next generation of editors to continue her work. She has also advised and encouraged many a young scholar newly embarking on his or her career. Canadian scholarly publishing, and UBC Press in particular, have been marked forever by Jean Wilson’s presence.cover photoFleeting Transformationby Kakulu Saggiaktok, Courtesy Dorset Fine ArtsFrom Healing Traditions by Lawrence J.

The challenge in finding a place for Canada in the world beyond the US lies not in finding a new strategic framework but in crafting policies that suit the needs of Canadian traders, investors, humanitarians, travellers, and expatriates.Recent Canadian foreign policy has fixated upon Canada’s former status as a middle power within a small club of western, democratic states. During this period, Canada was confident both about defining its national interests and in deploying its political, financial, and human resources to pursue these goals. The emergence of a US-dominated world, an integrated North American economy, and the decline of multilateral institutions, have left Canadian foreign policy searching for new purpose and direction. Instead of a foreign policy analysis that downplays Canada’s relations with the US and seeks to promote Canada’s role as a global citizen and international boy scout, From Pride to Influence posits an interest-based analysis grounded in Canadian history, geography, and demography. It will appeal to the engaged public, practitioners, analysts, and senior undergraduate and graduate classes focused on Canadian foreign policy.Michael Hart is Simon Reisman Professor of Trade Policy, Norman Paterson School of International Affairs, and Distinguished Fellow of the Centre for Trade Policy and Law at Carleton University. He is the author of Decision at Midnight: Inside the Canada-US Free Trade Negotiations (shortlisted for the Gelber and Canadian Business Book Awards), and A Trading Nation: Canadian Trade Policy from Colonialism to Globalisation (shortlisted for the 2003 Dafoe Prize, the 2003 Purvis Award, the 2003 Donald Smiley Award, and the 2002/2003 Donner Book Prize, selected CHOICE Outstanding Academic title).ContentsPreface1 Doing Foreign Policy2 Fads, Fashions, and Competing Perspectives3 The Making of Canadian Foreign Policy4 Legacies from the Past5 The Global Search for Security6 The Global Search for Prosperity7 Ties that Bind8 Myths, Perceptions, Values, and Canada-US Relations9 Managing Relations with the United States 10 A World of Infinite Options11 Doing Foreign Policy ...

The first is that of the foreign policy pragmatist, not overly concerned with Canada’s place in the world, cognizant of the central role of the United States, and prepared to make some changes both to restore Canadian diplomatic and military capacities and to pursue an interest-based agenda in relations with the United States and the rest of the world. A second perspective reflects the views of more romantically inclined Canadians, worried about Canada’s declining role in the world, eager to embrace an activist, multilateralist, values-based agenda, and determined to make a difference in the world. Sitting in between is the quintessential Canadian trying to integrate these two competing perspectives into a seamless whole. The result is rarely satisfactory ... the stitching is all too evident and the inconsistencies too obvious.Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca2GLOBALIZATION & AUTONOMY SERIESGlobal OrderingInstitutions and Autonomy in a Changing WorldEdited by Louis W. Pauly and William D. ColemanRenegotiating CommunityInterdisciplinary Perspectives, Global ContextsEdited by Diana Brydon and William D. ColemanDespite myriad global forces influencing the lives of individuals, societies, and polities, people continue to value their personal and communal independence. They insist on shaping the conditions of their existence to the fullest extent possible. This path-breaking book examines the institutions and organizations that mediate today’s increasingly complex relationship between globalization and autonomy.Many formal and informal institutions – from the World Trade Organization to transnational legal and financial regimes to new governance arrangements for aboriginal communities in environmentally sensitive regions – are evolving, adapting to meet new challenges, or failing to adjust rapidly enough. The globalization-autonomy metric helps to interpret such developments and clarify their implications.Global Ordering convenes an inter-disciplinary group of leading scholars to re-imagine the circumstances under which integrative systemic forces may be aligned with irreducible commitments to individual and collective autonomy. Collectively, the authors of this innovative work map the new frontier of globalization studies.Louis W.

Yet there is no consensus on why community matters or how globalization affects particular communities. What seems clear, however, is that people are seeking to claim, retain, or reconsider how they define and represent themselves, live together, and determine their futures.Autonomy in this sense has become a compelling question for communities across the world. Faced with finding a liveable globalization, many communities are renegotiating their identities and functions. In some instances, entirely new communities are being formed. Renegotiating Community asks what happens to the autonomy of individuals and communities in such circumstances. Original case studies show how a range of communities are renegotiating the meanings of community and autonomy while living with, and sometimes challenging, the processes of globalization.By addressing the coercive and comforting dimensions of community and the need to reconcile conflicting claims to autonomy, this book redraws the conceptual maps through which community, globalization, and autonomy are understood.Diana Brydon is a Canada Research Chair in Globalization and Cultural Studies at the University of Manitoba.William D.

Is sustainable peace an illusion in a world where foreign military interventions are replacing peace negotiations as starting points for postwar reconstruction? What would it take to achieve durable peace in contexts as different as Afghanistan, Mozambique, and Sri Lanka?Grappling with these questions, this book presents six provocative case studies authored by respected peacebuilding practitioners in their own societies. The studies address two cases of relative success (Guatemala and Mozambique), three cases of renewed but deeply fraught efforts (Afghanistan, Haiti, and the Palestinian Territories), and the case of Sri Lanka, where peacebuilding was aborted but where the outlines of a new peace process can be discerned. The book also includes original analyses of demobilization, disarmament, and reintegration processes in three different contexts, written by teams of Northern and Southern analysts.It will interest practitioners and students of peace, security, and development studies, as well as policymakers at many levels of government.Stephen Baranyi is Principal Researcher on Conflict Prevention at the North-South Institute in Ottawa.

JensenWhen the Second World War began, Canada had no foreign intelligence capacity. Its political leaders had concluded that a clandestine service was not necessary to meet the nation’s intelligence requirements. Yet Kurt F. Jensen argues that the country was a more active intelligence partner in the wartime alliance than has previously been suggested.Drawing on newly released materials and exhaustive research, he describes Canada’s contributions to Allied intelligence before the war began, as well as the distinctly Canadian activities that started from that point. He reveals how the government created an intelligence organization during the war to aid Allied resources and established operations such as SIGINT, or Signal Intelligence, which intercepted and decrypted Vichy and Free French diplomatic communications. Cautious Beginnings spans the period from 1939 to 1951, when key policy and personnel structures were put in place. In the postwar years, Canada reconfigured its foreign intelligence operations to meet the challenges of a changing world, and by the early 1950s possessed resources that rivalled or exceeded those of many other nations. This is a convincing portrait of a nation with an active role in Second World War intelligence gathering, one that continues to influence the architecture of its current capabilities. This book will greatly interest students and academics in Canadian history, political science, military history, specialists in the field, and anyone interested in the often mysterious world of foreign intelligence.Kurt F. Jensen is a former Canadian diplomat whose assignments included work with foreign intelligence. He also teaches political science at Carleton University.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDJune 2008, 256 pages, 6 x 9”978-0-7748-1482-9 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS / HISTORYFall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca4INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS / HISTORYBrock Chisholm, the World Health Organization, and the Cold WarJohn FarleyContradictory Impulses Canada and Japan in the Twentieth CenturyEdited by Greg Donaghy and Patricia E. RoyThis is the story of a man and an institution. Brock Chisholm was one of the most influential Canadians of the twentieth century. A world-renowned psychiatrist, he was the first director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), and built it up against overwhelming political odds in the years immediately following the Second World War.During Chisholm’s lifetime, the only other Canadians as internationally prominent were Lester B. Pearson and Marshall McLuhan. Yet today he has been largely forgotten – perhaps because he was so controversial. An atheist and a fierce critic of jingoistic nationalism, he supported world peace and world government and became a champion of the United Nations and the WHO.Official histories of the WHO place the organization in a political vacuum, but John Farley focuses on the battles Chisholm and his allies waged during the early Cold War, as the United States and the Soviet Union eyed each other warily and the Roman Catholic Church flexed its muscle on morally sensitive medical issues. Post-1945 international politics, global health issues, and medical history intersect in this highly readable account of a remarkable Canadian.John Farley is retired from Dalhousie University, where he taught the history of science and medicine. He has published several books on the subject.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDJune 2008, 288 pages, 6 x 9”19 b/w photos, 14 tables978-0-7748-1476-8HC CAD 85.00 / USD 99.00Contradictory Impulses is a comprehensive study of the social, political, and economic interactions between Canada and Japan from the late nineteenth century until today. Leading scholars draw upon the most recent archival research to examine an important bilateral relationship that has matured in fits and starts over the past century.Canada’s early interest in the Asia-Pacific region was hindered by “contradictory impulses” shaping its approach. For over half a century, racist restrictions curtailed immigration from Japan, even as Canadians manoeuvred for access to the fabled wealth of the Orient. Canada’s relations with Japan have changed profoundly since then. As Contradictory Impulses explains, the two countries’ political, economic, and diplomatic interests are now closely aligned and the relationship is reinforced by social and cultural ties.Contradictory Impulses challenges our historic understanding of Canada’s place in the world. This portrait of a nation growing into its Pacific identity raises pointed questions about the future of Canada’s relations with Japan and the Pacific region. It will appeal to scholars, policymakers, and others interested in Canada’s relations with Japan and the Asia-Pacific Rim.Greg Donaghy is Head of the Historical Section at Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada.

These are the stories of three labourers who “amused themselves with drinking in good fellowship”; of Captain Thomas, a wealthy Native trader, who “called for a small bowl of punch” to treat a Scotsman; and of an “English lady with her two small children ... very genteel and respectable” in a country tavern. They speak of white soldiers frequenting LeDuc’s tavern, of Abraham Rex and William Murdoch, both black, celebrating Emancipation Day there, and of the keeper of the North American Hotel who promised “Ladies and Gentlemen” accommodation “any time they may wish to tarry.” Reconstructed from tavern-keepers’ accounts, court records, diaries, travelogues, and letters, In Mixed Company tells of time spent in mixed company and the myriad, unequal ways of finding room in tavern culture. It also challenges comfortable certainties about who belonged where in colonial society. It is recommended reading for tavern aficionados, general readers, and historians of gender, race, and culture.Julia Roberts is a member of the Department of History at the University of Waterloo. NEW TITLE Cradle to GraveA Population History of British ColumbiaJohn Douglas BelshawIn the 240 years from contact to the present, British Columbia’s population experienced transformations of a kind and magnitude witnessed nowhere else in North America. An aboriginal population running to as many as half a million people was reduced by disease to fewer than 30,000 in less than a century. Whether assessing post-contact aboriginal depopulation, settler-era sex ratios, conflict over immigration, and unusually high mortality rates, Cradle to Grave explores the exceptional circumstances of human population in the westernmost province. Provocatively, this underlying tale of population and populating reveals and explains the province’s long tradition of acting vigorously in ways meant to control and shape biological communities of humans.Cradle to Grave shows how biology and politics conspire with sex, death, and migration to create a particular kind of society. Revising the province’s master narrative associating growth with progress, John Douglas Belshaw examines aboriginal depopulation, settler-era sex ratios and nuptials, fertility patterns, immigration, and mortality. He argues that population issues have historically been situated at the centre of British Columbian public consciousness and that there is a long tradition of thought and action intended to control and shape human communities. Cradle to Grave demystifies demographics in an accessible yet scholarly and provocative way. It will appeal to scholars and students in history, sociology, geography, and Canadian Studies, as well as to general readers interested in BC history.John Douglas Belshaw is the Associate Vice-President of Education at North Island College.Cover: Overpopulation Mask, by David NeelNEW HARDCOVERDecember 2008, 320 pages, 6 x 9”26 tables, 25 figures978-0-7748-1545-1 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca6NEW TITLESuburb, Slum, Urban VillageThe Transformations of Toronto’s Parkdale Neighbourhood, 1875–2000Carolyn WhitzmanCANADIAN HISTORY / GEOGRAPHY / URBAN STUDIESThe Reluctant LandSociety, Space, and Environment in Canada before ConfederationCole HarrisThe Reluctant Land describes the evolving pattern of settlement and the changing relationships of people and land in Canada from the end of the fifteenth century to the Confederation years of the late 1860s and early 1870s. It shows how a deeply indigenous land was reconstituted in European terms, and, at the same time, how European ways were recalibrated in this non-European space.

As China underwent a tumultuous transition from dynastic kingdom to independent republic, Canadian nurses advanced a version of hospital-based nursing education and practice that rivalled modern nursing care in Canada. As the first comprehensive study of missionary nursing in China, Healing Henan will be of particular interest to nurses and missionaries, and to historians of Canada, China, nursing, medicine, women’s work, and missions.Sonya Grypma is an associate professor of nursing at Trinity Western University.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDJanuary 2008, 312 pages, 6 x 9”42 b/w photos, 1 map, 5 tables978-0-7748-1399-0 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00978-0-7748-1400-3 PB CAD 32.95 / USD 36.95Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca8Shortlisted for the 2008 BC Book Prizes Hubert Evans Non-Fiction AwardPatricia E. Roy examines the climax of antipathy to Asians in Canada: the removal of all Japanese Canadians from the BC coast in 1942. Their free return was not allowed until 1949. Yet the war also brought increased respect for Chinese Canadians: they were enfranchised in 1947, and the federal government softened its ban on Chinese immigration. The Triumph of Citizenship explains why Canada ignored the rights of Japanese Canadians and placed strict limits on Chinese immigration. It explores how Japanese Canadians and their supporters in the human rights movement managed to halt “repatriation” to Japan, and how Chinese Canadians successfully lobbied for the same rights as other Canadians to sponsor immigrants. The final triumph of citizenship came in 1967, when immigration regulations were overhauled and the last remnants of discrimination were removed. The Triumph of Citizenship reminds all Canadians of the values and limits of their citizenship; students of political history and of ethnic relations in particular will find this book compelling.Patricia E.

Voices Raised in Protest examines the meaning and impact of these actions and how they diverged in Canada and the United States.Many North Americans opposed their governments’ wartime policies toward their fellow citizens of Japanese extraction. In this timely book, Stephanie Bangarth studies the efforts and discourses of anti-internment advocates, and discusses the various cases they brought before the courts. Persons of Japanese ancestry were also active in their own defence. Their critiques of the removal and deportation policies were seminal examples of a growing general interest in civil rights, and would provide a foundation for rights activism in subsequent years.Voices Raised in Protest offers valuable perspective for today’s debates over ethnic and racial profiling, treatment of “enemy combatants,” and tensions between civil-liberty and security imperatives. It will be of interest to activists and general readers as well as to scholars and students in history, law, politics, and Asian Canadian/American studies.Stephanie Bangarth is an assistant professor of history at King’s University College at the University of Western Ontario.

It makes Japanese-language scholarship on the subject available to an English speaking audience for the first time, and also draws on interviews, diaries, community histories, biographies, and the author’s own family history.Starting with the history of the feudal fiefs of Aki and Bingo, which were merged into Hiroshima prefecture, Ayukawa describes the political, economic, and social circumstances that precipitated emigration between 1891 and 1941. She then examines the lives and experiences of those migrants who settled in western Canada. Interviews with three generations of community members, as well as with those who remained in Japan, supplement research on immigrant labour, the central role of women, and the challenges Canadian-born children faced as they navigated life between two cultures.This book is a must-read for scholars of migrations, diaspora, and transnationalism, and will also be of great interest to general readers who wish to learn more about the lives and experiences of Japanese Canadians.Michiko Midge Ayukawa lives in Victoria, British Columbia, and has published widely on Japanese Canadian history.2007, 208 pages, 6 x 9”14 b/w photos, 4 maps, 2 tables978-0-7748-1431-7 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00978-0-7748-1432-4PB CAD 32.95 / USD 36.95NEW PAPERBACK Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca10MILITARY HISTORYRenegades Canadians in the Spanish Civil WarMichael PetrouBased on massive research, this is the best and most complete account of Canadians in the Spanish Civil War we are ever likely to get. – J.L. Granatstein, author of Canada’s Army: Waging War and Keeping the Peace More than 1,600 Canadian men and women fought to save Spain’s republic from its fascist opponents; over 400 died in the struggle. Not until the Cold War was over could Michael Petrou get us the fascinating details of who and what and why so many Canadians struggled and died in a war the democracies made it easy for General Francisco Franco to win. – Desmond Morton, author of A Military History of Canada Between 1936 and 1939, almost 1,700 Canadians defied their government and volunteered to fight in the Spanish Civil War. They chose to leave behind punishing lives in Canadian relief camps, mines, and urban flophouses to confront fascism in a country few knew much about. Four hundred died there. Michael Petrou has drawn on recently declassified archival material, interviewed surviving Canadian veterans, and visited the battlefields of Spain to write the definitive account of Canadians in the Spanish Civil War. It reveals who these men and women were, why they volunteered, how they lived and died in Spain, and how the Canadian government and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police reacted to their decision to illegally join another country’s war.Renegades is an intimate and unflinching story of idealism and courage, duplicity and defeat. It will appeal to anyone interested in the history of Canada, the Spanish Civil War, and the struggle between democracy and totalitarianism in the 1930s. Michael Petrou is a foreign correspondent at Maclean’s magazine and holds a doctorate in modern history from the University of Oxford. STUDIES IN CANADIAN MILITARY HISTORYPublished in Association with the Canadian War MuseumNEW TITLECrisis of ConscienceConscientious Objection in Canada during the First World WarAmy J. ShawThe First World War’s appalling death toll and the corresponding need for sacrifice on the homefront led to Canada’s first experience of overseas conscription. The backlash against enforced military service in Quebec was seen as a great threat to the wartime vision of national unity. This has obscured the important role of those who saw military service as incompatible with their religious or ethical beliefs.This study of the experience of conscientious objectors offers insight into evolving attitudes about the rights and responsibilities of citizenship during a key period of Canadian nation building. A claim of conscientious exemption to a war widely seen as holy was difficult both for the individual to make and for wider Canadian society to understand. The negative stereotype of the conscientious objector illuminates expectations of appropriate masculine behaviour, while encompassing a sense that the claims of certain individuals and denominations were more justifiable than others.Crisis of Conscience is the first and only book about the Canadian pacifists who refused to fight in the Great War. It will appeal to readers interested in Canadian military and peace history. The book is also relevant to those concerned with questions of voluntarism and obligation in a democratic society, and issues of gender history and minority freedom and identity.Amy J. Shaw is an assistant professor in the Department of History at the University of Lethbridge.STUDIES IN CANADIAN MILITARY HISTORYPublished in Association with the Canadian War MuseumNEW HARDCOVEROctober 2008, 240 pages, 6 x 9”978-0-7748-1593-2 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDApril 2008, 304 pages, 6 x 9”32 b/w photos, 2 maps978-0-7748-1417-1 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00978-0-7748-1418-8 PB CAD 24.95 / USD 27.95order online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 11HISTORY / SOCIAL WELFARECanada’s Rights Revolution Social Movements and Social Change, 1937–82 Dominique Clément Canada’s Rights Revolution is a major contribution to the historical and sociological literature on human rights in Canada. It is comprehensive, well organized, and makes a persuasive argument about the nature of human rights activism through the framework of social movements theory.– Brian Howe, author of Restraining Equality: Human Rights Commissions in Canada Rights advocacy is a topic of immense practical and historical significance. Dominique Clément does Canadian researchers a great service with this impressive historical analysis of leading social-movement organizations that have made rights advocacy their stated aim. This is important and original scholarship, to be sure.– Matt James, author of Misrecognized Materialists: Social Movements in Canadian Constitutional Politics In the first major study of postwar social movement organizations in Canada, Dominique Clément provides a history of the human rights movement as seen through the eyes of two generations of activists. Drawing on newly acquired archival sources, extensive interviews, and materials released through access to information applications, Clément explores the history of four organizations – the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association, Ligue des droits de l’homme, the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, and the Newfoundland-Labrador Human Rights Association – that emerged in the sixties and evolved into powerful lobbies for human rights despite bitter internal disputes and intense rivalries. Dominique Clément is an assistant professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Alberta. NEW TITLEFrom Rights to NeedsA History of Family Allowances in Canada, 1929–92Raymond BlakeFrom Rights to Needs examines the history of family allowances in Canada from their debut in the House of Commons in 1929 to their demise under the Mulroney Government in 1992. Focusing on the historical-political question of how policies are made, Raymond Blake traces the discourse around family allowances through the machinations of political parties, the Ottawa bureaucracy, and federal-provincial relations. Situating family allowances within a wider discussion of Canadian federalism, citizenship, and social rights in Canada, Blake shows that even after administrators realized the allowance program was becoming ineffective, changes came slowly because politicians feared a heavy political toll. He also traces why and how the Mulroney Conservatives finally made changes to family allowances, making them more selective, and heralding a change from an emphasis on universality to one of selectivity in Canadian social policy. From Rights to Needs is a nuanced and comprehensive exploration of the origins and development of family allowances. It will appeal to readers in the public policy community; students and scholars in political science, history, social work, and sociology; and general readers interested in the history and politics of Canadian welfare.Raymond Blake is a professor of history at the University of Regina.

How did this come about? What were the motives and methods of the people involved in both countries? Why did it come to an end? What effects did it have on the children involved and what eventually became of them? These are the questions Roy Parker explores in a meticulously researched work that brings together economic, political, social, medical, legal, administrative, and religious aspects of the story in Britain and Canada. He concludes with a moving review of evidence from more recent survivors of child migration, discussing the lifelong effects of their experiences with the help of modern psychological insights.His book – humane and highly professional – will capture and hold the interest of academics, practitioners, and general readers. It will also appeal to generations of descendants of the children around whom this study revolves.Roy Parker is Professor Emeritus of Social Policy at the University of Bristol.

Young wage-earning women – “working girls” – embodied all that was unnerving and unnatural about modern times: the disintegration of the family, the independence of women, and the unwholesomeness of city life. These anxieties were amplified in the West. Using an innovative interpretive approach that centres on literary representation, Lindsey McMaster takes a fresh look at the working heroine of western Canadian literature alongside social documents and newspaper accounts of her real-life counterparts.

Originally from Cape Breton, MacLean sailed to the Pacific side of North America when he was just twenty-one and worked there for thirty-five years as a sailor and sealer. His achievements and escapades while in the Victoria fleet in the 1880s laid the foundation for his status as a folk hero. Although MacLean is a colourful character both in his own right and as mythologized by London, his biography reveals more than the construction of a legend. Don MacGillivray opens a window onto the complex world of pelagic sealing in the North Pacific. MacLean’s story will appeal to maritime historians, historians of the Pacific Northwest, and readers interested in the history of sealing, international relations, and environmental politics.Don MacGillivray is a professor of history at Cape Breton University.PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDMay 2008, 376 pages, 6 x 9”11 b/w photos978-0-7748-1471-3 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00At the Far Reaches of EmpireThe Life of Juan Francisco de la Bodega y QuadraFreeman M.

Dombrowski, author of The Philosophy of VegetarianismThe issue of our ethical obligations to nonhuman animals has been the subject of lively debate, and many books have been written on the subject. Sins of the Flesh will be an important addition to this literature.– Steve F. Sapontzis, author of Morals, Reason, and AnimalsUnlike previous books on this topic, Sins of the Flesh examines the history of vegetarianism in its ethical dimensions from the origins of humanity through to the present.Full ethical consideration for animals resulting in the eschewing of flesh arose after the Aristotelian period in Greece and recurred in Ancient Rome, but then mostly disappeared for centuries. Despite the occasional presence of ascetic and cultural vegetarianism, it was not until the turn of the nineteenth century that vegetarian thought was revived and enjoyed some success. It subsequently went into another period of decline that lasted through much of the twentieth century. The authority-questioning cultural revolution of the 1960s brought a fresh resurgence of vegetarian ethics that continues to the present day.Sins of the Flesh is a ground-breaking history of ethical vegetarianism that will appeal to all readers concerned with human-animal relations and the foundations of animal rights.Rod Preece is Professor Emeritus at Wilfrid Laurier University.Awe for the Tiger, Love for the LambA Chronicle of Sensibility to AnimalsBecause it is so well researched, Preece’s book will interest scholars in this field.

It makes a very significant contribution to the field, both by demonstrating to environmental historians that Northern topics are of broader interest and by providing Northern historians with an impressively detailed illustration of the importance of environmental perspectives.– Ken Coates, Professor of History and Dean of Arts at the University of WaterlooCanada’s subarctic industrialization relied upon its large northwest lakes: Winnipeg, Athabasca, Great Slave, and Great Bear. Between 1921 and 1960, these lakes comprised a seam in the Canadian interior where industrial economies took root, transgressing political geographies and superseding the historically dominant fur trade. Industrialization reshaped the relationship of humans to nature in subarctic Canada. Uranium and gold mining operations, fishing, and transport companies adapted to subarctic extremes, hewing closely to the inanimate features of the material world: minerals, fossil fuels, and waters. The state and private enterprise imported southern scientists and sojourning labourers to work the northwest, and its industrial history bears these newcomers’ imprint.The Industrial Transformation of Subarctic Canada reveals the history of human impact upon the North. It provides a baseline, grounded in historical and scientific evidence, for measuring subarctic environmental change. Liza Piper examines the sustainability of industrial economies, the value of resource exploitation in volatile ecosystems, and the human consequences of northern environmental change. She also addresses northern communities’ historic resistance to external resource development and their fight for survival in the face of intensifying environmental and economic pressures.This rich environmental history will appeal to historians, geographers, and environmentalists interested in industrialization, resource management, and the Canadian North.Liza Piper is an assistant professor of history at the University of Alberta.NATURE | HISTORY | SOCIETY SERIESorder online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 17ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORYHunting for Empire Narratives of Sport in Rupert’s Land, 1840–70Greg GillespieThis work provides an innovative examination of material not often covered in Canadian historiography.

As far as I know, it is unique as a grand survey of the Cree. Yet it’s more than survey; it is something I would call “beautiful.” Also elegant. It is a Grand Unified Theory of people vis-à-vis the land. – Calvin Luther Martin, author, Keepers of the Game: Indian-Animal Relationships and the Fur Trade.The James Bay Cree lived in relative isolation until 1970, when Northern Quebec was swept up in the political and cultural changes of the Quiet Revolution. The ensuing years have brought immense change for the Cree, who now live with the consequences of Quebec’s massive development of hydroelectricity, timber, and mineral resources in the North. The Cree’s fight to protect their land against this tide of development is emblematic of First Nations’ struggles for rights in Canada and elsewhere in North America.Home Is the Hunter presents the historical, environmental, and cultural context from which this recent story grows. By investigating the Cree’s relationship with the land and their 300 years of contact with fur traders, missionaries, and other outsiders, Hans Carlson illuminates the process of cultural negotiation at the foundation of ongoing political and environmental debates. He details the Cree’s integration into North American economies and politics alongside their attempts to remain culturally and environmentally distinct. Home Is the Hunter is more than a story of dam building and industrial logging; it offers a way of thinking about all Native peoples and about environmental justice in the current political climate.

The FSC was born in 1993 as a grassroots initiative with the goal “to promote environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial, and economically viable management of the world’s forests” through an international system of forest certification.The establishment of an FSC standard for British Columbia was achieved only after difficult and protracted negotiations at the regional, national, and global levels. The authors use their pioneering case study of this process to explore the challenges associated with implementing the FSC’s global vision. The book also undertakes a comparative analysis of FSC standards and standard-setting processes in different regions, and extends its horizon to reflect on the implications of the FSC experience for global governance and regulatory theory.Chris Tollefson is a professor of law at the University of Victoria.

EinsiedelAn important contribution to scholars interested in the philosophy of science, science studies, and policy/decision-making processes around new technologies.– Toby A. Ten Eyck, Department of Sociology, Michigan State UniversityNew technologies emerge all the time. Some technologies, however, are transformative: they introduce new forms of control, both through formal systems of regulation and by informally shaping our behaviour. They have profound impacts and are often disruptive, affect the way we work and play, influence our mobility and lifestyle. They offer hope and possibility while introducing new fears and unintended consequences. How should we think about these radical technologies? Too often our social reactions to new technologies occur only in hindsight, after the technology has penetrated the marketplace. However, recent experience teaches that much may be gained by practising forethought and foresight. Contributors to this collection examine the development, impact, and governance of new technologies emerging from a variety of fields, including biotechnology, genetics, stem cell research, pharmacology, and nanotechnology.Emerging Technologies addresses the ethical, legal, and social dimensions of emerging technologies and assesses their social and policy implications.

Hanson, Distinguished Fellow and Senior Scientist, International Institute for Sustainable DevelopmentIn Canada and around the world, governments are shifting away from regulatory models for governing natural and cultural resources. New concerns with adaptive processes, feedback learning, and flexible partnerships are reshaping environmental governance. Meanwhile, ideas about collaboration and learning are converging around the idea of adaptive co-management. This book provides a comprehensive synthesis of the core concepts, strategies, and tools in this emerging field, informed by a diverse group of researchers and practitioners with over two decades of experience. It also offers a diverse set of case studies that reveal the challenges and implications of adaptive co-management thinking and synthesizes lessons for natural and cultural resource governance in a wide range of contexts.

In farming systems across the country, effective risk management is necessary to deal with drought, flooding, and extreme weather, and to adapt to altered climate and weather conditions. Unfortunately, climate change risks and opportunities are not always well understood among researchers and policy makers in the Canadian agri-food sector. This book addresses that gap. Farming in a Changing Climate provides a wide-ranging synopsis of what climate change means for Canadian agriculture, explores different approaches to the topic, and presents examples of current research. It covers all agricultural regions and a wide variety of commodity production and farm-ing systems. Comments from agricultural producers and policy makers add a practical component to the book and emphasize the value of the applied research. This comprehensive survey synthesizes twenty years of research on climate change and Canadian agriculture. The book will be of interest to scholars in environmental studies, geography, and sociology; policy analysts and policy makers; and representa-tives of the agri-food industry.

It clearly illustrates the multiple dimensions involved, the lack of easy solutions, and the many defensible positions that one can take. Law and Religious Pluralism in Canada will contribute significantly to the literature and debates on this pressing issue.– Peter Beyer is a Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Ottawa and the author of Religions in Global SocietyThis book examines the complex, often uneasy, relationship between law and religion in a democracy that is committed to equal citizenship and religious pluralism. It seeks to elucidate the relationship between these different normative systems and to understand the impact of law on religious diversity in Canada. The contributors to Law and Religious Pluralism in Canada consider the role of religious belief and values in public decision-making, government support for religious practices, and the regulation of minority religious practices. They address these themes in a variety of contexts and from a variety of vantage points, examining such current issues as the legal recognition of sharia arbitration, the re-definition of civil marriage, and the accommodation of religious practice in schools. In recent years these issues have become the subject of significant interest and controversy in Canada and elsewhere. Law and Religious Pluralism in Canada will appeal to lawyers, legal academics, political scientists, religious studies scholars, and anyone interested in the issue of religion in the public sphere.

Berger, and A.R. BuckThis collection of essays by Canada’s and Australasia’s most accomplished legal historians is a “must” for academic libraries and those who share these scholars’ interest in the legal culture of the British colonial world. – Peter Karsten, author of Between Law and Custom: “High” and “Low” Legal Cultures in the Lands of the British Diaspora, 1600-1900The Grand Experiment reveals how local life and culture in selected colonies interacted with the rule of law that accompanied the British colonial project. This rich account of the “incomplete implementation of the British constitution” in the colonies explores themes of legal translation, local understandings, judicial biography, and law at the boundaries – and reveals how far colonial legal history has come during the past two decades.Contributors examine the legal cultures of colonies or former colonies in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, with an occasional comparative glance at other colonial societies, such as South Africa and certain United States jurisdictions. They cover a diversity of topics, including dower, prohibition, libel law, the authority of masters on the high seas, the clash of colonial and indigenous legal regimes, circuits courts, “men of law,” and the extent to which British courts took note of the decisions made by courts in settler dominions.Rich in empirical detail and analytical reach, The Grand Experiment is a detailed look at the heart of the colonial legal enterprise. It will be of interest to lawyers, scholars, and students seeking to understand the relationship between British colonial legal institutions and the life and culture of the settler societies in which they took root.Hamar Foster is a professor of law at the University of Victoria.Benjamin L.

In The New Lawyer, Julie Macfarlane explores the evolving role of practitioners, articulating legal and ethical complexities in a variety of contexts drawn from Canadian and American legal literature as well as from her own empirical research.

Moreover, it is a vital contribution to the current political debates regarding the best approaches to deal with the “drug problem” … Moore’s work is original and will stimulate theoretical and political debates on current practices of rehabilitation or treatment in the criminal justice system.– Dany Lacombe, Professor of Sociology, Simon Fraser UniversityDrawing on theoretical tools inspired by Foucault, Latour, and Goffman, Criminal Artefacts casts doubt on the assumption that drugs lie at the heart of crime. Case studies from drug treatment courts and addiction treatment programs illustrate the tensions between law and psychology, treatment and punishment, and conflicting theories of addiction. By looking at the criminal addict as an artefact of criminal justice, this book asks us to question why the criminalized drug user has become such a focus of contemporary criminal justice practices.

HarrisLament for a First NationThe Williams Treaties of Southern OntarioPeggy J. BlairIn this important and original book, Douglas Harris demonstrates the vital connection between fisheries and reserve creation in British Columbia. In addition to providing fresh historical insights, this work has significant implications for contemporary Aboriginal land and fishing rights. Eloquently written in an accessible style, Landing Native Fisheries will appeal to historians and geographers, and will also serve as a valuable resource for First Nations, government officials, lawyers, and other readers who want to understand the policies that set the stage for present-day litigation and treaty negotiations.– Kent McNeil, author of Common Law Aboriginal Title Landing Native Fisheries reveals the contradictions and consequences of an Indian land policy premised on access to fish, on one hand, and a program of fisheries management intended to open the resource to newcomers, on the other. Beginning with the first treaties signed on Vancouver Island between 1850 and 1854, Douglas Harris maps the connections between the colonial land policy and the law governing the fisheries. In so doing, Harris rewrites the history of colonial dispossession in British Columbia, offering a new and nuanced examination of the role of law in the consolidation of power within the colonial state.Douglas C.

No other First Nations in Canada have ever been found to have willingly surrendered similar rights.Peggy J. Blair gives the Howard decision considerable context. She examines federal and provincial bickering over “special rights” for Aboriginal peoples and notes how Crown policies toward Indian rights changed as settlement pressures increased. Blair argues that the Canadian courts caused a serious injustice by applying erroneous cultural assumptions in their interpretation of the evidence. In particular, they confused provincial government policy, which has historically favoured public over special rights, with the understanding of the parties at the time.Blair demonstrates that when American courts applied the same legal principles as their Canadian counterparts to a case involving similar facts, they reached the opposite conclusion. Lament for a First Nation convincingly demonstrates that what the Canadian courts considered to be strong and conclusive proof of surrender was in fact based on almost no evidence at all. Peggy J. Blair is one of Canada’s leading lawyers in the field of Aboriginal law.LAW AND SOCIETY SERIESLAW AND SOCIETY / FIRST NATIONS STUDIESorder online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 25First Nations Cultural Heritage and LawCase Studies, Voices, and PerspectivesEdited by Catherine Bell and Val NapoleonIndigenous peoples around the world are seeking greater control over their cultural heritage. In Canada, issues of protection, appropriation, and repatriation have sometimes been addressed through negotiation. However, the legal environment for negotiation is sometimes dated, often uncertain, and always complex. First Nations Cultural Heritage and Law is an interdisciplinary volume exploring selected First Nations perspectives on cultural heritage and issues of reform within and beyond Western law. Written in plain language and in collaboration with First Nation partners, it contains seven case studies featuring indigenous concepts, legal orders, and encounters with legislation and negotiations; a national review essay; three chapters reflecting on major themes; and a self-reflective critique on the challenges of collaborative and intercultural research.

In Canada, issues concerning repatriation and trade of material culture, heritage site protection, treatment of ancestral remains, and control over intangible heritage are governed by a complex and uncertain legal and policy environment. A companion to First Nations Cultural Heritage and Law, this collection discusses key features of US and international law influencing Canada. Legal and extra-legal avenues for reform are examined, including ethics codes, research protocols, institutional policies, human rights law, and First Nation legal orders.

Next to the pathological Indian, the lazy “Indian” is the most persistent and damaging stereotype with which we have to contend. Makúk will be one of the most important books on aboriginal history written in Canada.– Mary Ellen Kelm, author of Colonizing Bodies: Aboriginal Health and Healing in Canada, 1900-50The history of aboriginal-settler interactions in Canada continues to haunt the national imagination. Despite billions of dollars spent on the “Indian problem,” Aboriginal people remain the poorest in the country. Because the stereotype of the “lazy Indian” is never far from the surface, many Canadians wonder if the problem lies with “Indians” themselves.John Lutz traces Aboriginal people’s involvement in the new economy, and their displacement from it, from the arrival of the first Europeans to the 1970s. Drawing on an extensive array of oral histories, manuscripts, newspaper accounts, biographies, and statistical analysis, Lutz shows that Aboriginal people flocked to the workforce and prospered in the late nineteenth century. He argues that the roots of today’s widespread unemployment and “welfare dependency” date only from the 1950s, when deliberate and inadvertent policy choices -- what Lutz terms the “white problem” drove Aboriginal people out of the capitalist, wage, and subsistence economies, offering them welfare as “compensation.”Makúk invites readers into a dialogue with the past with visual imagery and an engaging narrative that gives a voice to Aboriginal people and other historical figures. It is a book for students, scholars, policymakers, and a wide public who care to bring the spectres of the past into the light of the present. John Sutton Lutz teaches in the Department of History at the University of Victoria.Kiumajut [Talking Back]Game Management and Inuit Rights, 1900–70Peter Kulchyski and Frank James TesterKiumajut [Talking Back] examines Inuit relations with the Canadian state, with a particular focus on two interrelated issues. The first is how a deeply flawed set of scientific practices for counting animal populations led policymakers to develop policies and laws intended to curtail the activities of Inuit hunters. Animal management informed by this knowledge became a justification for attempts to educate and, ultimately, to regulate Inuit hunters. The second issue is Inuit responses to the emerging regime of government intervention. The authors look closely at resulting court cases and rulings, as well as Inuit petitions. The activities of the first Inuit community council are also examined in exploring how Inuit began to “talk back” to the Canadian state.The authors’ award-winning previous collaboration, Tammarniit [Mistakes]: Inuit Relocation in the Eastern Arctic 1939-63, focused on government responsibility, social welfare, and relocation in Inuit relations with the state. Kiumajut is not a continuation of Tammarniit, but rather an interrelated, stand-alone study that examines a separate range of issues relevant to a historical understanding of community development in Nunavut. Kiumajut draws on new material compiled from archival sources and from an archive of oral interviews conducted by the authors with Inuit elders and others between 1997 and 1999. This volume provides the reader with new and important insights for understanding this critical period in the history of Inuit in Canada.Peter Kulchyski is a professor in the Department of Native Studies at the University of Manitoba.

I believe it will be important for scholars as well as practitioners in First Nations and Indian Affairs.– Mark Dickerson, author of Whose North? What happens to a First Nation after the successful negotiation of a land claim? Navigating Neoliberalism argues that neoliberalism, which drives government policy concerning First Nations in Canada, can also drive self-determination. And in a globalizing world, new opportunities for indigenous governance may transform socioeconomic well-being.Gabrielle Slowey studies the development of First Nations governance in health, education, economic development, and housing. What emerges is a case study of one First Nation, the Mikisew Cree, as it navigates its way through neoliberalism. Slowey shows how the Mikisew First Nation has successfully exploited opportunities for greater autonomy and well-being that the current political and economic climate has presented.Navigating Neoliberalism tackles a topical issue central to Canadian politics and Canadian federalism. It will be of interest to students and practitioners of public policy, political economy, and political science, as well as members and leaders in First Nations communities.Gabrielle Slowey teaches in the Department of Political Science at York University.

As the first study of political culture in Nunavut, it is very satisfying that so much information has been gathered and analyzed. It will be of great interest to residents and students of Nunavut, and will certainly be used by the larger community of scholars interested in territorial political development, Indigenous governance, and the relationship of political and institutional change in general. – Frances Abele, School of Public Policy and Administration, Carleton University, and former Deputy Director of Research for the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples Nunavut: Rethinking Political Culture explores the complex processes at work in the generation of political cultures. Drawing upon extensive fieldwork and quantitative analysis, it provides the first systematic, empirical study of political life in Nunavut, offering comprehensive analysis of the evolving nature of aboriginal self-government in the Arctic and shedding crucial light on Inuit--non-Inuit relations.Political culture in Nunavut has long been characterized by different approaches to political life: traditional Inuit attitudes toward governance, federal aspirations for the political integration of Inuit, and territorial strategies for institutional development. Ailsa Henderson links these features to contemporary political attitudes and behaviour, concluding that a distinctive political culture is emerging in Nunavut.Original and provocative, Nunavut explores political attitudes, behaviour, and institutions in Nunavut before, during, and after the creation of the new territory, challenging our understandings of how political cultures are generated and sustained.This book will appeal to political scientists, sociologists, and others interested in culture and politics, Aboriginal studies, and northern development.Ailsa Henderson is an assistant professor of political science at the University of Toronto.

Niobe Thompson describes the remarkable transformation of a population once dedicated to establishing colonial power on a northern frontier into a rooted community of “locals” now resisting a renewed colonial project.Niobe Thompson is a documentary filmmaker, a partner in Clearwater Media, and a research associate at the Canadian Circumpolar Institute. He also teaches in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Alberta.FIRST NATIONS STUDIESJanuary 2008, 272 pages, 6 x 9”1 map, 27 tables, 1 figure978-0-7748-1423-2 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00978-0-7748-1424-9 PB CAD 29.95 / USD 32.95NEW PAPERBACKPREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCEDMay 2008, 304 pages, 6 x 9”978-0-7748-1467-6 HC CAD 85.00 / USD 98.00order online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 29New Histories for OldChanging Perspectives on Canada’s Native PastsEdited by Ted Binnema and Susan NeylanBraiding HistoriesLearning from Aboriginal Peoples’ Experiences and PerspectivesSusan D. DionScholarly depictions of the history of Aboriginal people in Canada have changed dramatically since the 1970s when Arthur J. (“Skip”) Ray entered the field. New Histories for Old examines this transformation while extending the scholarship on Canada’s Ab-original history in new directions.The collection combines essays by promi-nent senior historians, geographers, and anthropologists with contributions by new voices in these fields. The chapters reflect the core themes studied by Ray himself, including Native struggles for land and resources under colonialism, the fur trade, “Indian” policy and treaties, mobility and migration, disease and well-being, and Na-tive-newcomer relations.This book sheds new light on the history of scholarship on Canada’s Aboriginal past and the leading role played by one of Canada’s foremost historians. It also provides a fascinating snapshot of the lines of inquiry pursued by emerging scholars in the field.New Histories for Old is a major contribution to understanding Native-newcomerrelations, Native struggles for land and resources under colonialism, “Indian” policy and treaties, mobility and migration, disease and well-be-ing, and questions about “doing” Native his-tory. It will appeal to scholars and students in history, Native studies, geography, anthropol-ogy, and related fields. Ted Binnema is an associate professor of history at the University of Northern British Columbia. Susan Neylan is an associate professor of history at Wilfrid Laurier University. This book proposes a new pedagogy for addressing Aboriginal subject material that shifts the focus from an essentializing or “othering” exploration of the attributes of Aboriginal peoples to a focus on historical experiences informing our understanding of contemporary relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples. Susan Dion takes up questions of (re)presenting the lived experiences of Aboriginal people in the service of pedagogy. Investigating what happened when the stories were taken up in history classrooms, she illustrates how our investments in particular identities structure how we hear and what we are “willing to know.”Braiding Histories illuminates the challenges of speaking/listening and writing/reading across cultural boundaries as an Aboriginal person to communicate Aboriginal experience through education. It will be useful to teachers and students of educational and Native Studies and will appeal to readers seeking a better understanding of colonialism and Aboriginal/non-Aboriginal relations.Susan D. Dion is a professor in the Faculty of Education at York University.

A member of the Athapaskan family of languages, the language has some intriguing characteristics of consonant-vowel interaction, the details of which have been in dispute among scholars. Witsuwit’en Grammar presents acoustic studies of several aspects of Witsuwit’en phonetics, including vowel quality, vowel quantity, ejectives, voice quality, and stress. Information about the sound system and word structure of Witsuwit’en is also provided, revealing many unusual features not previously described in this level of detail for an Athapaskan language.

With the arrival of the fur trade, the French of the engagés or voyageurs provided additional vocabulary and a set of viable cultural practices, a key element of which was marital bonding with Indian and métisse women. These women and their children were the first fluent speakers of Wawa. After several decades of contact, ensuing epidemics brought demographic collapse to the Chinookans. Within another decade the region was radically transformed by the Oregon Trail. Wawa had acquired its present shape, but lost its homeland. It became a diaspora language in which many communities seek some trace of their past. A previously unpublished glossary of Wawa circa 1825 is included as an appendix to this volume.Making Wawa will attract the attention of linguists, especially those involved in contact linguistics and the languages of the Pacific Northwest. It will also interest historians and other scholars interested in Native and gender studies, cross-cultural conflict, and transculturation.

This collection addresses the origins of mental problems and culturally appropriate and effective responses for mental health services and promotion. Healing Traditions is not a handbook of practice but a starting point for thinking critically about current issues. The book is divided into four sections: an introduction to the mental health of Indigenous peoples; origins and representations of social suffering; transformations of identity and community; and traditional healing and mental health services. Cross-cutting themes include the impact of colonialism, sedentarization, and forced assimilation, the importance of land for indigenous identity and an ecocentric self, notions of space and place as part of the cultural matrix of identity and experience, and processes of healing and spirituality as sources of resilience. Offering a unique combination of mental health and socio-cultural perspectives, Healing Traditions will be useful to readers in Aboriginal communities and to health professionals, educators, community workers, educators, politicians, social scientists, and students.

Chan and Donald FisherThe Exchange University critically examines the increasing commercialization of today’s academy. Universities are under increas-ing economic pressure to develop human capital, science, and technology in support of Canada’s need for economic restructuring and international competitiveness. Market relations and knowledge economies have become keywords in university debates over research and academic priorities, while privatization reveals tensions between pub-lic and private sectors.How are universities responding to pressure for capital accumulation, research com-mercialization, technology transfer, and academic capitalism? These external forces create fractures in today’s universities by weakening boundaries separating academy and industry. Furthermore, through legisla-tion and policy, governments have created quasi-markets that encourage institutional competition both within the public sphere and between public and private sectors. The Exchange University addresses crucial questions facing today’s university, includ-ing the commercialization of research and teaching; intensifying government-uni-versity relationships; marketization and commodification; and policy and functional responses within the academy. The book will interest practitioners, students, and academics in educational studies, policy studies, and higher education. Adrienne S.

Yet analysts have devoted little attention to the management of parks and protected areas. In Taking the Air, Paul Kopas takes a comprehensive approach to this aspect of policy debate. He scrutinizes the policy-making process for national parks since the mid-1950s and interrogates the rationale and policies that have governed their administration.Kopas argues that national parks and park policy reflect not only environmental concerns but also the political and social attitudes of bureaucrats, citizens, interest groups, Aboriginal peoples, and legal authorities. He explores how the goals of each group have been shaped by the historical context of park policy, influencing the shape and weight of their contributions.

Nevertheless, the OECD plays an important role in the emerging structure of global governance, even though it lacks the regulatory or financial power of some other international organizations. It performs a number of important functions: contributing to consensus formation and dissemination of best policy practices; enhancing transparency around policy; and applying moral suasion to encourage member states to comply with its “expert” injunctions.Focusing upon the OECD’s core functions, contributors to this volume trace the OECD’s history, structure, and role in international governance as well as its role as a “policy ideas generator” and purveyor of “best practices” in a variety of economic and social policy domains.The OECD and Transnational Governance fills an important gap in the literature on global governance and will be of interest to academics, students, and practitioners in a variety of disciplines, including international studies, political science, sociology, and business.Rianne Mahon is Chancellor’s professor and Director of the Institute of Political Economy at Carleton University in Ottawa.

White, Richard Simeon, Robert Vipond, and Jennifer WallnerOver the past decade, the study of Canadian politics has changed profoundly. The introspective, insular, and largely atheoretical style that informed Canadian political science for most of the postwar period has given way to a deeper engagement with, and integration into, the global field of comparative politics. This volume is the first sustained attempt to describe, analyze, and assess the “comparative turn” in Canadian political science. Canada’s engagement with comparative politics is examined with a focus on three central questions: In what ways, and how successfully, have Canadian scholars contributed to the study of comparative politics? How does the study of the Canadian case have the unique potential to advance the comparative discipline? Finally, can Canadian practice and policy be reproduced in other countries? The depth and scope of analysis in The Comparative Turn will inform graduate students and scholars. Its accessible style will make the book useful to undergraduate courses in Canadian and comparative politics and to other readers interested in these topics. Linda A.

Covering eleven cities as well as Canada’s Parliament, it breaks new ground by assessing the representation of diverse identity groups across multiple levels of government. The book begins by introducing the literature on electoral representation and the main concepts and frameworks underlying research on immigrants, women, and minorities. Using survey and census data, its chapters provide snapshots of officials elected at municipal, provincial, and federal levels, and compares these to portraits of the general population. The volume concludes by reviewing key findings and discussing patterns of over- and under-representation in Canadian government.Electoral representation is an important indicator of a democracy’s health, yet there is limited research on how well elected representatives reflect the characteristics of voters.

He casts light on what life was like for the Chinese living under Japanese rule and, surprisingly, the degree to which literary figures were able to thwart Japanese censorship. – Ronald Suleski, author, Civil Government in Warlord ChinaThe first book in English on women’s history in twentieth-century Manchuria, Resisting Manchukuo adds to a growing literature that challenges traditional understandings of Japanese colonialism.

Cunningham Jr., CHOICEThe Inner Bird introduces readers to the avian skeleton, then moves beyond anatomy to discuss the relationships between birds and dinosaurs and other early ancestors. Gary Kaiser examines the challenges scientists face in understanding avian evolution – even recent advances in biomolecular genetics have failed to provide a clear evolutionary story. Using examples from recently discovered fossils of birds and near-birds, Kaiser describes an avian history based on the gradual abandonment of dinosaur-like characteristics, and the related acquisition of avian characteristics such as sophisticated flight techniques and the production of large eggs. Such developments have enabled modern birds to invade the oceans and to exploit habitats that excluded dinosaurs for millions of years.While ornithology is a complex discipline that draws on many fields, it is nevertheless burdened with obsolete assumptions and archaic terminology. The Inner Bird offers modern interpretations for some of those ideas and links them to more current research. It should help anyone interested in birds to bridge the gap between long-dead fossils and the challenges faced by living species.Gary W. Kaiser has worked as a biologist for Environment Canada and the Nature Conservancy of Canada, and as an independent researcher. He is a co-author of the four-volume Birds of British Columbia.The Inner BirdAnatomy and EvolutionGary W. KaiserOwls of the United States and CanadaA Complete Guide to Their Biology and BehaviorWayne LynchLynch is among a select group of North America’s very best natural history writers and photographers. In Owls of the United States and Canada he showcases both of these talents and reveals a wealth of knowledge about owl biology. Anyone interested in these fascinating birds will treasure this book for years to come.– Brian E. Small, Birding MagazineIn this gorgeous book, celebrated natural history writer and wildlife photographer Wayne Lynch reveals the secrets of these elusive species with stunning photographs, personal anecdotes, and accessible science. The photos alone are masterpieces. Unlike most published owl photos, the majority of these were taken in the wild – a product of the author-photographer’s incredible knowledge and patience.Lynch complements the photos with facts about anatomy, habitat, diet, and family life. For each of nineteen species inhabiting Canada and the United States, he provides a range map and a brief discussion of its distribution, population size, and status. Lynch debunks myths about owls’ “supernatural” powers of sight and hearing, discusses courtship rituals, and offers personal tips for finding them in the wild. Wayne Lynch is the author of numerous award-winning books and television documentaries. One of Canada’s most widely published photographers, his books include Wild Birds across the Prairies, Mountain Bears, and Penguins of the World.

At the height of steamship travel in the late 1800s and early 1900s, passengers enjoyed a sit-down dinner served on china with silver flatware. Today, the only places you can still find this china is at flea markets and antique shops or by diving at old dock sites and on shipwrecks. Pacific Coast Ship China identifies and dates shipping china used along the Pacific Coast of North America. It covers china used on vessels and in-shore establishments of shipping organizations registered in Alaska, the Yukon Territory, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, and Hawaii; it describes patterns used in coastal, intercoastal, and transpacific services. In addition to passenger vessels, it documents the china used by freighter operations, oil companies, government services, and yacht clubs.This easy-to-use guide identifies more than 280 china patterns. It provides collectors, museum technicians, divers, history buffs, and anyone else interested in identifying and dating Pacific Coast ship china with all the information they need. It also includes brief descriptions of 59 Pacific Coast shipping companies.Pacific Coast Ship ChinaJacques MarcJacques MarcROYAL BRITISH COLUMBIA MUSEUMOctober 2008, 240 pages, 8-1/2 x 10”400+ colour and 60 b/w photographs978-0-7726-5979-8 HC CAD 75.00 / USD 80.00Above: The Admiral Line logo mark Left: ship dining roomorder online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 41Imagining Head-Smashed-InAboriginal Buffalo Hunting on the Northern PlainsJack W.

Cross-breeding experiments with bison and domestic cattle proved unfruitful. Attempts at commercializing the herd had no success. Ultimately, the Department of National Defence repurposed the park for military training and the bison disappeared once more.This book sheds light on the history of Canada’s national parks, bison recovery efforts, and environmental thought in the first half of the twentieth century.Jennifer Brower received her M.A. from the Department of History and Classics at the University of Alberta.

The author does exactly what she says a good storyteller will do: she highlights the seven principles, she moves at a pace where I, as the listener, am able to follow, and her content is rich and enticing.– Bryan Brayboy, Lumbee Principal Investigator, American Indian Teacher Training Program, University of Utah Indigenous oral narratives are an important source for, and component of, Coast Salish knowledge systems. Stories are not only to be recounted and passed down; they are also intended as tools for teaching. Jo-ann Archibald worked closely with Elders and storytellers, who shared both traditional and personal life-experience stories, in order to develop ways of bringing storytelling into educational contexts. Indigenous Storywork is the result of this research and it demonstrates how stories have the power to educate and heal the heart, mind, body, and spirit. It builds on the seven principles of respect, responsibility, reciprocity, reverence, holism, interrelatedness, and synergy that form a framework for understanding the characteristics of stories, appreciating the process of storytelling, establishing a receptive learning context, and engaging in holistic meaning-making.

It will be of great interest to residents and students of Nunavut, and will certainly be used by the larger community of scholars interested in territorial political development, Indigenous governance, and the relationship of political and institutional change in general.– Frances Abele, School of Public Policy and Administration, Carleton UniversityNunavut: Rethinking Political Culture explores political attitudes, behaviour, and institutions in Nunavut before, during, and after the creation of the new Canadian territory, to reveal the complex processes at work in the generation of political cultures. Drawing upon extensive fieldwork and quantitative analysis, it provides the first systematic, empirical study of political life in Nunavut, offering comprehensive analysis of the evolving nature of Aboriginal self-government in the Arctic and shedding crucial light on Inuit–non-Inuit relations. Political culture in Nunavut has long been characterized by different approaches to political life: traditional Inuit attitudes toward governance, federal aspirations for the political integration of Inuit, and territorial strategies for institutional development. Original and provocative, Nunavut explores political attitudes, behaviour, and institutions in Nunavut before, during, and after the creation of the new territory, challenging our understandings of how political cultures are generated and sustained. This book will appeal to political scientists, sociologists, and others interested in culture and politics, Aboriginal studies, and northern development. Ailsa Henderson is an assistant professor of political science at the University of Toronto.

Despite billions of dollars spent on the “Indian problem,” Aboriginal people remain the poorest in the country. Because the stereotype of the “lazy Indian” is never far from the surface, many Canadians wonder if the problem lies with “Indians” themselves.John Lutz traces Aboriginal people’s involvement in the new economy, and their displacement from it, from the arrival of the first Europeans to the 1970s. Drawing on an extensive array of oral histories, manuscripts, newspaper accounts, biographies, and statistical analysis, Lutz shows that Aboriginal people flocked to the workforce and prospered in the late nineteenth century. He argues that the roots of today’s widespread unemployment and “welfare dependency” date only from the 1950s, when deliberate and inadvertent policy choices – what Lutz terms the “white problem” drove Aboriginal people out of the capitalist, wage, and subsistence economies, offering them welfare as “compensation.”Makúk invites readers into a dialogue with the past with visual imagery and an engaging narrative that gives a voice to Aboriginal people and other historical figures. It is a book for students, scholars, policymakers, and a wide public who care to bring the spectres of the past into the light of the present. John Sutton Lutz teaches in the Department of History at the University of Victoria.

The long-term implications of the totem pole restoration projects of the second half of the twenti-eth century; the opening of the National Museum of the American Indian; the dance event in Juneau known as Celebration; the impact of modernism and postmodernism on Indian art; and the use of electronic media to establish Indian territory on the Internet all demonstrate facets of the purposeful and context-driven strategies of self representation designed by Native communities.Through close readings of Native cultural pro-ductions, Ostrowitz puts Native art practices into conversation with larger issues in cultural studies. Art audiences are becoming familiar with many works that address global com-munities but are generated in environments affected by specific ethnic, gendered, and cultural perspectives. As the work of non-Na-tive artists in world-system venues is now also interpreted in the context of the biographi-cal and cultural histories of their makers, all works of art may be better appreciated as expressions of local artistic position.Judith Ostrowitz is the author of Privileging the Past: Reconstructing History in Northwest Coast Art.

MallottPhotographs by Bill HessIn 1982, the fledgling Native nonprofit Sealaska Heritage Institute held a dance-and-culture festival to celebrate the Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian cultures of Southeast Alaska. A couple of hundred Native people gathered in Juneau for the event, called Celebration. They could not have imagined then that Celebration would spark a movement across the region – a renaissance of Native culture that prompted people largely unfamiliar with their heritage to learn their ancestral songs and dances and to make regalia for future Celebrations.Today, Celebration is the largest cultural event in the state, drawing thousands of people to the five-day biennial festival. Celebration, featuring the work by the noted Alaska photographer Bill Hess, includes images from the first Celebration to the present-day festivals. It is both an introduction to Native cultures and a cherished keepsake for the people who have participated in Celebration.Sealaska Heritage Institute is a regional Native nonprofit organization serving the indigenous peoples of Southeast Alaska. The Institute was founded in 1980 to administer cultural programs for Sealaska Corporation, a Native for-profit company formed under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. The Institute’s mission is to perpetuate and enhance Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian cultures.F08 Trade-Guts.indd 3 12/05/2008 12:17:41 PM Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca4NEW IN PAPERJuly 2008, 272 pages, 6 x 9”29 b/w photos, 7 tables 978-0-7748-1448-5 paperback $32.95STUDIES IN CANADIAN MILITARY HISTORYPublished in Association with the Canadian War MuseumUBC PRESSAn unromanticized, nuanced, and complex book. Based on revealing first-hand accounts from the nurses themselves, as well as published memoirs, and military documents, Toman’s analysis of the ways in which nursing culture came into conflict with military culture over medical treatment and technology is brilliant. An Officer and a Lady is both pioneering scholarship and a well-told story.– Christina Bates, co-editor of On All Frontiers: Four Centuries of Nursing in Canada An Officer and a Lady is beautifully written and a real pleasure to read. It asks all the important questions about identity and representation, women’s experiences, the meanings of gender, the role of nursing, and the impact of militarization and war. After reading each chapter, I couldn’t wait to continue to the next.– Susan L. Smith, author of Japanese American Midwives: Culture, Community, and Health Politics, 1880-1950 During the Second World War, more than 4,000 civilian nurses enlisted as Nursing Sisters, a specially created all-female officers’ rank of the Canadian Armed Forces. They served in all three armed force branches and all the major theatres of war, yet nursing as a form of war work has long been under-explored. An Officer and a Lady fills that gap. Cynthia Toman analyzes how gender, war, and medical technology intersected to create a legitimate role for women in the masculine environment of the military and explores the incongruous expectations placed on military nurses as “officers and ladies.” ContentsIllustrations and TablesAcknowledgmentsAbbreviationsIntroduction1 “Ready, Aye Ready”: Enlisting Nurses2 Incorporating Nurses into the Military3 Shaping Nursing Sisters as “Officers” and “Ladies”4 Legitimating Military Nursing Work5 “The Strain of Peace”: Community and Social MemoryConclusionAppendix: Biographical Profiles of Interviewed Nursing SistersNotes; Selected Bibliography; IndexCynthia Toman is an assistant professor of nursing and is Associate Director of the Associated Medical Services Nursing History Research Unit at the University of Ottawa.

Dreiss and Sharon Edgar GreenhillFOOD HISTORY / ARCHAEOLOGYDreiss and Greenhill have given us an eloquent and beautifully illustrated tribute to chocolate as the sacred ‘food of the gods.’ Grounded in the latest scholarship, this book reminds us that in the countries of its origin, chocolate was more than a mere confection. Highly recommended to chocolate lovers everywhere.– Michael Coe, co-author of The True History of ChocolateChocolate: Pathway to the Gods leads us on a cultural journey through ancient Mesoamerica and in doing so adds flavor and insight into the spirit and soul of chocolate. Chocolate will never taste the same again!– Gary Guittard, owner, Guittard Chocolate CompanyDreiss and Greenhill stimulate and delight the mind as chocolate stimulates and delights the palate. A truly satisfying book—and the perfect gift for all your chocolate loving friends.– Jane Goodall, founder, Endangered Species Chocolate CompanyChocolate: Pathway to the Gods takes readers on a journey through 3,000 years of the history of chocolate. It is a trip filled with surprises. And it is a beautifully illustrated tour, featuring 132 vibrant colour photographs and a captivating sixty-minute DVD documentary. Along the way, readers learn about the mystical allure of chocolate for the peoples of Mesoamerica, who were the first to make it and who still incorporate it into their lives and ceremonies today.Although it didn’t receive its Western scientific name, Theobroma cacao – “food of the gods” – until the eighteenth century, the cacao tree has been at the centre of Mesoamerican mythology for thousands of years. Not only did this “chocolate tree” produce the actual seeds from which chocolate was extracted but it was also symbolically endowed with cosmic powers that enabled a dialogue between humans and their gods. From the pre-Columbian images included in this sumptuous book, we are able to see for ourselves the importance of chocolate to the Maya, Aztecs, Olmecs, Mixtecs, and Zapotecs who grew, produced, traded, and fought over the prized substance.Through archaeological and other ethnohistoric research, the authors of this fascinating book document the significance of chocolate – to gods, kings, and everyday people – over several millennia. The illustrations allow us to envision the many ancient uses of this magical elixir: in divination ceremonies, in human sacrifices, and even in ball games. And as mythological connections between cacao trees, primordial rainforests, and biodiversity are unveiled, our own quest for ecological balance is reignited. In demonstrating the extraordinary value of chocolate in Mesoamerica, the authors provide new reasons – if any are needed – to celebrate this wondrous concoction.Meredith L.

A man of passionate commitment and of wide-ranging cultural curiosity, the late Lord Thomson of Fleet began a half-century of collecting in 1953 during a visit to England, and continued to the end of his life. The Thomson Collection has drawn the respect of museum curators worldwide. Both in terms of quantity and quality, the collection’s body of Canadian art has no equal; and a number of works, principal among them Rubens’s Massacre of the Innocents, are of truly international significance.This book surveys the colleciton as a whole, exploring the particular character of Ken Thomson’s taste, describing and evaluating individual pieces, and setting them in their historical context. The collection features major paintings by Canadian artists from the 19th to the mid 20th century including some of iconic works of the Group of Seven and Tom Thomson. Among its European works is the fabulous 12th-century Malmesbury reliquary casket, an extraordinary selection of medieval ivories, and a fine group of portrait miniatures. A large and varied group of ship models, from the Napoleonic era to the 20th century, is an intriguing facet of the collection.PAUL HOLBERTON PUBLISHINGOctober 2008, 128 pages, 9.5 x 11”100 colour illustrations978-1-903-47079-4 paperback $50.00Canadian Artin the Thomson Collection at the Art Gallery of OntarioJeremy Adamson, et al.ART HISTORYNovember 2008, 144 pages, 9.5 x 11”100 colour illustrations978-1-903-47083-1 paperback $50.00Together with important First Nations material, the Thomson Canadian Collection is the largest of all private holdings of Canadian art. Ten essays by authorities on Northwest Coast art, Cornelius Krieghoff, James Wilson Morrice, Tom Thomson, the Group of Seven painters Frederick Varley, Lawren Harris and J.E.H. MacDonald, as well as David Milne, Paul-Emile Borduas and William Kurelek, explore in depth and breadth centuries of artistic achievement in Canada.Rare and incomparable examples of Northwest Coast Aboriginal art in the Thomson Collection of Canadian Art are distinctive in their design vocabulary and rich in symbolic meaning. Together these artists tell the rich story of the country Ken Thomson called home.

These include large statuettes of the Virgin and Child intended to stand on altars in chapels, small versions for private use in the home, and folding tablets or diptychs with scenes from the life of Christ carved in relief. Alongside these are beautiful small carved writing tablets, boxes and caskets, combs, hair parters, mirror cases with scenes of romantic encounters between elegant young men and women, and a rare set of carving and serving knives with fabulous beasts decorating the ivory handles.The magnificent Dormeuil Diptych of the Passion of Christ is a highlight of the collection and appears to be the largest ivory Passion diptych extant. Equally remarkable is a controversial Nativity and Last Judgment diptych which had been considered “too good to be medieval” and dismissed as a forgery, but has now been carbon-14 dated to the late 12th or early 13th century. Other significant medieval works include examples of stained glass, woodwork, and metalwork, notably the 12th-century Malmesbury reliquary casket.PAUL HOLBERTON PUBLISHINGNovember 2008, 128 pages, 9.5 x 11”80 colour illustrations978-1-9034-7081-7 paperback $50.00The recent rediscovery of Rubens’s Massacre of the Innocents offers an important opportunity to reassess the painter’s early career. Of Rubens’s works immediately following his return to Antwerp in 1608, it is the most assured, achieving a remarkable complexity both compositionally and emotionally.David Jaffé, senior curator at the National Gallery, London, considers the work in its context, discussing the numerous sources and influences – both visual and literary – from which Rubens drew. He also compares it to contemporary works by the artist, such as the London National Gallery’s Samson and Delilah, and discusses it in relation to the latter’s first owner, Nicolaas Rockox, the humanist and burgomaster of Antwerp and one of Rubens’s most enthusiastic patrons.PAUL HOLBERTON PUBLISHINGNovember 2008, 128 pages, 9.5 x 11”200 colour illustrations978-1-903-47082-4 paperback $50.00Spanning some 350 years, the Thomson Collection of ship models contains examples of exquisite workmanship and some of the masterpieces of the genre. Foremost in the Collection are rare late 17th and 18th century British dockyard models, made to scale for the Royal Navy and wealthy individuals. There is also a large number of models made by some of the 120,000 prisoners of the Napoleonic Wars. These models – made from wood and bone, with rigging of silk and human hair – were often produced by teams of highly skilled craftsmen and sold to local British collectors who gathered at the prison gates. The shipbuilders’ models extend from the mid-19th century to the Second World War, representing a diversity of both model style and ship types ranging from tugs, dredgers and trawlers to cargo vessels, passenger steamers, private yachts, corvettes, battleships, cruisers, torpedo boats, destroyers and two aircraft carriers. The collection is an important three-dimensional resource for students of maritime history and the naval architecture of ships, accurately recording vessels that no longer exist.PAUL HOLBERTON PUBLISHING F08 Trade-Guts.indd 7 12/05/2008 12:17:44 PM Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca8Let Right Be DoneAboriginal Title, the Calder Case, and the Future of Indigenous RightsEdited by Hamar Foster, Heather Raven, and Jeremy WebberThe New LawyerHow Settlement is Transforming the Practice of LawJulie MacfarlaneA comprehensive but surprisingly easy-to-read history of Aboriginal title claims, the landmark Calder case that confirmed Nisga’a rights in the Nass claims, and the future of native rights. Foster doesn’t lose the reader with legalese. He holds his tapestry of facts and points of law together with simply woven threads of sourced anecdotes. What could have been a complex and boring recitation of legal manoeuvring is a riping tale of political and religious bids ... a veritable trove of knowledge and understanding of native land claims. – Jim Hume, Victoria Times-ColonistIn the early 1970s, many questioned whether Aboriginal title existed in Canada and rejected the notion that Aboriginal people should have rights different from those of other citizens. But in 1973 the Supreme Court of Canada issued a landmark decision in the Calder case, confirming that Aboriginal title constituted a right within Canadian law. Let Right Be Done examines the doctrine of Aboriginal title thirty years later and puts the Calder case in its legal, historical, and political context, both nationally and internationally. With its innovative blend of scholarly analysis and input from many of those intimately involved in the case, this book should be essential reading for anyone interested in Aboriginal law, treaty negotiations, and the history of the “BC Indian land question.” Hamar Foster is Professor of Law at the University of Victoria. Heather Raven is a senior lecturer in Law at the University of Victoria. Jeremy Webber holds the Canada Research Chair in Law and Society at the University of Victoria.

Macfarlane persuasively critiques the outmoded habits of the profession and lays a strong foundation for the new settlement-oriented, problem-solving approach to lawyering.– David Hoffman, Chair, Collaborative Law Committee of the American Bar Association Section of Dispute Resolution An adversarial “client warrior” image dominates historical notions of the lawyer, and a commitment to “zealous advocacy” remains one of the core norms of the legal model. Yet structural changes within both the justice system and the legal profession have rendered the “warrior” notion outdated and inadequate, with a shift toward conflict resolution rather than protracted litigation. The new lawyer’s skills go beyond court battles to encompass negotiation, mediation, collaborative practice, and restorative justice. In The New Lawyer, Julie Macfarlane explores the evolving role of practitioners, articulating legal and ethical complexities in a variety of contexts drawn from Canadian and American legal literature as well as from her own empirical research. The result is a thought-provoking exploration of the increasing impact of alternative, consensus-seeking strategies on the lawyer-client relationship, as well as on the legal system itself. The New Lawyer will be of interest to lawyers, law professors, law students, members of professional regulatory bodies, mediators, justice officials, and anyone who works with lawyers.

FarnsworthAs the U.S. enters the last lap of the 2008 presidential election season, the media and the candidates are in full gear exploiting each other, often at the expense of public information and awareness. This book looks at how presidents and presidential candidates use television, the Internet, and newspapers to promote their policies and themselves, even as they are sometimes manipulated by the media they so avidly seek. The modern presidential obsession with public relations – and media willingness to be used to advance executive power – undermines the country’s long term ability to deal with crucial problems, including foreign and military relations, a growing government debt, and public health care shortcomings.Stephen J.

He then expresses himself clearly and concisely in a manner that is both exciting and explorative. He has all the attributes of a first-rate cartoonist including a fine design and drafting sense and a cunning eye for the unusual.– Pat Oliphant, world-renowned political cartoonistAmbushed! recounts the exploits of the Bush administration - at home and abroad - through the lens of a Pulitzer Prize–winning cartoonist for the Miami Herald and the analysis of a leading political scientist at Boston University and Harvard University. The book begins with the ways in which American voters were ambushed in two presidential elections and ranges widely among the ensuing disasters, from Enron to Katrina, to the budget deficit to the economy, and finally to the “global war on terror” that lost America many friends and inspired enemies worldwide. Contrasting the Bush administration’s lofty promises with its policy failures – from Baghdad to New Orleans – the book suggests that this has been not only the least effective but the most destructive presidency of the past century.

Yet many subsequent atrocities have gone unchecked, all over the world: from the killing fields of Cambodia, to Rwanda, and to Srebrenica. The bloody list continues to grow, led by the unfolding nightmare in Darfur. How and why were the world’s best intentions derailed, and what can be done today to put these efforts back on track? In The Responsibility to Protect, Gareth Evans, president of the International Crisis Group, explains why governments failed to intervene in so many previous crises. In a more hopeful vein, he then discusses how the emergence of a new international norm can protect the peoples of the world from mass crimes. The “responsibility to protect” – R2P for short – was unanimously embraced at the UN World Summit in 2005. The heart of this new international norm is the belief that if sovereign governments fail to protect their own people from mass atrocity crimes, then responsibility shifts to the wider international community to take whatever action is appropriate, including (in extreme cases) the use of force. The world cannot, and will not, just stand by.Evans spells out all the steps needed to make R2P work in practice and clarifies the misunderstandings, real or contrived, that persist about its scope and limits. He emphasizes the need for preventive action, and for preferring assistance and persuasion to coercion, but also makes clear when it is right to fight. The book is enlivened throughout by real world examples, analyses of current events, and assessments drawn from the author’s own vast experience. Gareth Evans is President and CEO of the International Crisis Group, the leading nongovernmental organization advising on conflict prevention and resolution.NEW IN PAPERSeptember 2008, 288 pages, 6 x 9”978-0-8157-2504-6paperback $24.95 BROOKINGS INSTITUTION PRESSSeveral outstanding books have been written about the road to September 11. The Search for Al Qaeda has a different mission. While it does review how al Qaeda was created and developed, it focuses more closely on what has happened to the terrorist network since that awful day. According to Riedel, al Qaeda’s ultimate goals are to drive America from the Muslim world (the ummah); to destroy Israel; and to create a jihadist caliphate along the lines of the Ottoman Empire at its height. The book reveals al Qaeda’s multi-pronged strategy for accomplishing those goals: draw America into the type of “bleeding wars” that drove the Soviets from Afghanistan; build a safe haven for al Qaeda in Pakistan; develop other “franchises” in the Islamic world that can overthrow pro-American regimes; and conduct more Western attacks along the lines of 9-11 or the transit bombings in Madrid and London.Bruce Riedel is an expert on the Middle East and South Asia, with 30 years of policymaking experience in regional diplomacy and counterterrorism. He draws on this experience and firsthand knowledge in profiling the four most important figures in the al Qaeda movement: Usama bin Laden, its creator and charismatic leader; ideologue Ayman Zawahiri, the Egyptian co-leader of al Qaeda and its principal spokesman; Abu Musaib al Zarqawi, the tenacious leader of al Qaeda in Iraq until his death in 2006; and Mullah Omar, Taliban host to al Qaeda. These profiles provide the base from which Riedel delivers a much clearer understanding of al Qaeda and what must be done to counter it. Bruce Riedel is a former CIA officer that focuses on political transition, terrorism and conflict resolution.

Weather, as Mass makes abundantly clear, is not just a source of griping or amusement or awe in this region but often a life and death matter.– David Laskin, author, Rains All the Time and The Children’s BlizzardThe book employs solid scientific rigor in explaining the many mysteries and curiosities of the weather in the Pacific Northwest. It provides an unsurpassed opportunity to interested laypersons and weather enthusiasts not only to learn about the many weather events that occur in the Northwest but also about the meteorological principles that are at the root of their existence.– Brad Colman, NOAA/National Weather ServiceThe Pacific Northwest experiences the most varied and fascinating weather in the United States, including world-record winter snows, the strongest nontropical storms in the nation, and shifts from desert to rain forest in a matter of miles. Local weather features dominate the meteorological landscape, from the Puget Sound convergence zone and wind surges along the Washington Coast to gap winds through the Columbia Gorge and the “Banana Belt” of southern Oregon. This book is the first comprehensive and authoritative guide to Northwest weather directed to the general reader; helpful to boaters, hikers, and skiers; and valuable to an expert meteorologist. In The Weather of the Pacific Northwest, University of Washington atmospheric scientist and popular radio commentator Cliff Mass unravels the intricacies of Northwest weather, from the mundane to the mystifying. By examining our legendary floods, snowstorms, and windstorms, and a wide variety of local weather features, Mass answers such interesting questions as:• Why does the Northwest have localized rain shadows?• What is the origin of the hurricane force winds that often buffet the region?• Why does the Northwest have so few thunderstorms?• What is the origin of the Pineapple Express?• Why do ferryboats sometimes seem to float above the water’s surface?• Why is it so hard to predict Northwest weather?Mass brings together eyewitness accounts, historical records, and meteorological science to explain Pacific Northwest weather. He also considers possible local effects of global warming. The final chapters guide readers in interpreting the Northwest sky and in securing weather information on their own.Cliff Mass, professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Washington and weekly guest on KUOW, is the preeminent authority on Northwest weather. He has published dozens of articles on Northwest weather and leads the regional development of advanced weather prediction tools.NEW IN PAPERNovember 2008, 336 pages, 8 x 10” 281 colour illustrations978-0-295-98847-4paperback $29.95UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON PRESSF08 Trade-Guts.indd 11 12/05/2008 12:17:49 PM Fall-Winter 2008 / order online: www.ubcpress.ca12ENVIRONMENTWhere Our Food Comes FromRetracing the World’s Greatest Plant Explorer through the Centers of Food Diversity on Five ContinentsGary Paul Nabhan Gary Paul Nabhan is a world-renowned ethnobiologist, conservationist, and essayist whose work has been translated into five languages.

With their inefficient transportation systems and poorly designed buildings, many cities consume enormous quantities of fossil fuels and emit high levels of greenhouse gases. But our planet is rapidly running out of the carbon-based fuels that have powered urban growth for centuries and we seem to be unable to curb our greenhouse gas emissions. Resilient Cities explains how cities can meet the impending crisis. The book describes our current use of oil and contribution to climate change before presenting four possible outcomes: ”collapse,” “ruralized,” “divided”, and “resilient.” In response to these scenarios, the authors articulate how a new “sustainable urbanism” could replace today’s “carbon-consuming urbanism.” They address in detail how new transportation systems and buildings can be developed to replace our present low efficiency systems. In conclusion, they offer ten “strategic steps” that any city can take toward greater sustainability. This is a book packed with practical ideas, some of which are already working in cities today.

Doppelt makes the case that global warming and today’s other ecological and socioeconomic problems are not technical in nature, rather they represent a crisis of thought. Every society has a shared “mental frame” – core beliefs and assumptions – that shape the way people make decisions and behave. Effective solutions will emerge only when new, sustainable forms of thinking emerge. To bring the ideas alive, Doppelt offers numerous examples from his own experiences and those of business and government leaders from different places and contexts. The end result is a practical, inspiring read for all those who want to change their own thinking and behaviour and contribute to a cascade effect that produces widespread social change for climate protection and sustainability.NEW HARDCOVER July 2008, 240 pages, 6 x 9”978-1-8440-7595-9 hardcover $39.95EARTHSCAN PUBLISHERSF08 Trade-Guts.indd 14 12/05/2008 12:17:51 PMorder online: www.ubcpress.ca / Fall-Winter 2008 15ENVIRONMENTThe Sustainability MirageIllusion and Reality in the Coming War on Climate ChangeJohn Foster Finally, we are taking the climate battle seriously – the experts agree that climate change is happening, the news brings us images of hurricanes and droughts, and business is beginning to respond.
