Reconstructed from official security regime documents released through the Access to Information Act and interviews with gays, lesbians, civil servants, and high-ranking officials, The Canadian War on Queers offers a passionate, personalized account of a national security campaign that violated people’s civil rights and freedoms in an attempt to regulate their sexual practices. Gary Kinsman and Patrizia Gentile disclose not only the acts of state repression that accompanied the Canadian war on queers but also forms of resistance that raise questions about just whose national security was being protected and about national security as an ideological practice. This path-breaking account of how the state used national security to wage war on its own people offers ways of understanding, and resisting, contemporary ideological conflicts such as the “war on terror.” It is required reading for students, scholars, and social activists in lesbian, gay, and queer studies or anyone interested in the issues of national security, state repression, and human rights.Gary KinSman is the author of The Regulation of Desire and an editor of Sociology for Changing the World.

He did not consider what the arts can tell us about being Canadian or about being ourselves. In On the Art of Being Canadian, Sherrill Grace traces how painters, writers, and filmmakers have shaped Canadian identity in three fields of representation that are staples in Canadian culture – the North, iconic national figures, and war. By telling stories in their chosen medium and genre about life here or about events and figures from the past, she shows that artists help us to understand the Canadian landscape and to create a shared history.Sherrill GraCe is Professor of english at the University of British Columbia.

In this important work, Alan Gordon presents a single national hero – Jacques Cartier – to explore how notions about the past are created and re-created throughout generations. The Hero and the Historians shows how the celebrations of Jacques Cartier took on forms connected to the development of historical studies in the nineteenth century and how these forms, in turn, shaped the political and cultural currents of national identities and nation build-ing. The image of Cartier changed gradually over time, reflecting the long-term ideological fluctuations that alter the nature of historical understanding. Setting this book apart from other works on com-memoration and memory is the effort made to integrate divergent views into a single argument. Jacques Cartier represents a point of contact between english- and French-Canadian national-isms but, as this book reveals, there are profound limitations to the nature of that contact. This book is necessary reading for people interested in the underlying culture of national identity, and national unity, in Canadian history. alan GOrdOn is a professor in the History Department at the University of Guelph.December 2009, 222 pages (est.), 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1741-7 hC $85.00 8 illustrationsHow did British colonists in Victorian Montreal come to think of themselves as ”native Canadian”? This incisive, richly illustrated work reveals that colonists adopted Aboriginal and French Canadian activities – hunting, lacrosse, snowshoeing, and tobogganing – and appropri-ated them by imposing British ideologies of order, discipline, and fair play. In the process, they constructed national attributes, or visual icons, that were recognized at home and abroad as distinctly ”Canadian.” The new Canadian nationality mimicked indigenous characteristics but, ultimately, rejected indigenous players, and championed the interests of white, middle-class, Protestant males who used their newly acquired identity to dominate the political realm.Becoming Native in a Foreign Land demonstrates that english Canadian identity was not formed solely by emulating what was British, it gained enormous ground by usurping what was indigen-ous in the fertile landscape of a foreign land. This book will appeal to scholars and enthusiasts of Canadian history, identity, and culture.

But was this program, which gave all mothers a monthly stipend to raise the nation’s babies, driven by a desire to create a kinder, gentler nation or was it more influenced by economics, constitution-mak-ing, and international trends in public policy? This book explores the family allowance phenomenon from its debut in 1929 to its demise as a univer-sal program under the Mulroney government in 1992. Although successive federal governments remained committed to its underlying principle of universality, party politics, the bureaucracy, federal-provincial wrangling, and the shifting priorities of citizens eroded the rights-based ap-proach to social security and replaced it with one based on need. By tracing the evolution of one social security program within a national perspec-tive, this book sheds light on the process by which Canada’s welfare state and social policy has been transformed over the past half century. raymOnd B.

This wide-ranging, engaging book examines the ideas of AngloCanadian theorists who saw technology as a new imperative that would either enhance or threaten the moral imperative. From the mid-nineteenth century onward, advocates argued that technology, as a moral force, would strengthen the ties that bound Canada to Britain and Western civilization, while opponents saw technology as a source of American power that threatened Canadian independence.The Technological Imperative in Canada offers new insights into the ideas of influential Canadian theorists of technology such as Harold Innis and Marshall McLuhan and introduces readers to the ideas and perceptions of lesser-known but key figures such as Sandford Fleming, Stephen Leacock, and e.J. Pratt. This seminal book re-vises the entrenched notion that AngloCanadian thought has been dominated by the moral imperative.

This collec-tion looks at nurses and nursing in a wide range of settings from the mid-1800s to the 1970s, including indigenous women on the Canadian prairies; First World War nurses posted over-seas; outpost nurses in rural and remote areas of Saskatchewan, Ontario, and Quebec; public health nurses in Winnipeg; and religious congre-gations in nursing education in New Brunswick.The contributors use feminist and historical perspectives to illustrate how place, understood as both social context and geographic setting, shaped nursing identities and practices. Many nurses found place both liberating and constrain-ing, often simultaneously. Paying attention to place also situates these nurses and their work within larger historical themes of nation-building, war, and political change.

It is essential reading for anyone with an interest in Canada's post-1945 diplomatic practice and how it came to be interpreted by government officials and independent observers alike.– Dennis Stairs, Professor emeritus of Political Science, Dalhousie UniversityIt is hard to imagine a person who embodied the ideals of postwar Canadian foreign policy more than John Wendell Holmes. Holmes joined the foreign service in 1943, headed the Canadian Institute of International Affairs from 1960 to 1973, and, as a professor of international relations, mentored a generation of students and scholars. This book is the first comprehensive biography of a diplomat and public intellec-tual who influenced not only how scholars and statespeople abroad viewed Canada but also how Canadians saw themselves on the world stage.

Did parents simply want a break, or were broader developments at play? The Nurture of Nature explores the history of summer camps and sheds light on a wider phenomenon: the divided consciousness that informs modern assumptions about nature, tech-nology, and identity. Wall examines how two competing tendencies – antimodern nostalgia and modern sensibilities about the landscape, child rearing, and identity – played out in the camp’s interaction with nature, its class and gendered dimensions, its engage-ment with emerging ideologies of childhood, and in the politics of race inherent in its "Indian" programming. The Nurture of Nature offers a nuanced discus-sion of the summer camp’s contribution to modern social life that will appeal to students and practitioners of the history of childhood, the natural environment, and recreation or anyone who has been packed off to camp and wants to explore why.

Between 1916 and 1918, Lance-Corporal George Timmins, a British-born soldier who served in the Canadian expeditionary Force, wrote faithfully to his wife and children. Sixty-three letters and four fragments survived. These letters tell the compelling story of a man who, while helping his fellow Canadians make history at Vimy, Lens, Passchendaele, and Amiens, used letters home to remain a presence in the lives of his wife and children, and who drew strength from his family to appreciate life’s simple pleasures. Timmins’s letters offer a rare glimpse into the experiences and relationships, and the quiet heroism of ordinary soldiers on the Western Front. y.a.

Socknat, co-editor of Challenge to Mars: Essays on Pacifism from 1918 to 1945The First World War’s appalling death toll and the need for a sense of equality of sacrifice on the home front led to Canada’s first experience of overseas conscription. While historians have fo-cused on resistance to enforced military service in Quebec, this has obscured the important role of those who saw military service as incompat-ible with their religious or ethical beliefs. Crisis of Conscience is the first and only book about the Canadian pacifists who refused to fight in the Great War. The experience of these con-scientious objectors offers insight into evolving attitudes about the rights and responsibilities of citizenship during a key period of Canadian nation building. amy J.

ShawThe procurement of military weapons and equip-ment in Canada has often been controlled by partisan political considerations – not by a clear desire to increase the capability of the military. As a result, Canada has often failed to be ef-fective in the design, production, or even the purchase, of weapons and equipment. The Sea King helicopter is a case in point. The Politics of Procurement outlines the history of failed attempts to replace this helicopter. Officially commissioned in 1975, only to be cancelled (to the tune of $478 million), then re-commissioned again, the new helicopters are still years away. This book is the first of its kind to provide a clear description and analysis of the procurement process in Canada. More than a saga about a poorly executed military acquisition, this book is about why the Canadian military has always been under-equipped and often embarrassed on the world stage. It will be of interest to students and practitioners of public policy and political science and a resource for anyone seeking information on defence spending in Canada.aarOn PlamOndOn teaches Military History at the University of Calgary and Mount Royal College and is a Research Associate at the Centre for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary.November 2009, 256 pages (est.), 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1714-1 hC $85.00the Politics of ProcurementMilitary Acquisitions in Canada and the Sea King Helicopteraaron PlamondonThe Politics of ProcurementMilitary Acquisitions in Canada and the Sea King HelicopterAAron PlAMondon6 FALL 09 | order online @ www.ubcpress.ca order online @ www.ubcpress.ca | FALL 09 7 BC hiStOryBC hiStOryBC hiStOryThis book demonstrates the significance of demographic knowledge to our understanding of the province’s history and its historiography.

The introduction of exotic diseases changed the human landscape almost overnight, as did gold rushes, industrialization, two world wars, a baby boom, late 20th-century immigration from Asia, and a grey wave.

The colonists who followed soon realized they needed a written history, both to justify their dispossession of Aboriginal peoples and to for-mulate an identity for a new settler society. Writing British Columbia History shows how euro-Canadian historians took up this task, and struggled with the newness of colonial society and overlapping alliances to the British empire, the United States, and Canada. In explorers’ accounts, promotional literature, “pioneer” his-tories, and academic studies, they eased these tensions by defining British Columbia as part of a global British empire, incorporating it into an expanding Anglo-Saxon civilization, and writing it into the empire of history itself. This sweeping study of the role of history writing in colonialism and nation building will appeal to anyone interested in BC history, the history of the Pacific Northwest, or history writing in Canada.

In this definitive study, Spooner meets the challenge of presenting such a thorny subject clearly and persuasively. This is a superb book on a difficult topic that tells us much about UN peacekeeping and Canada’s part in it.– Hector Mackenzie, Senior Departmental Historian, Department of Foreign Affairs and International TradeIn 1960 the Republic of Congo teetered near collapse as its first government struggled to cope with civil unrest and mutinous armed forces. When the UN established a peacekeeping operation to deal with the crisis, the Canadian government faced a difficult decision. Should it support the intervention? Offering one of the first detailed accounts of Canadian involvement in a UN peacekeeping mission, Kevin Spooner reveals that Canada’s in-volvement was not a certainty: the Diefenbaker government had immediate and ongoing reservations about the mission, reservations that challenge cherished notions of Canada’s commitment to the UN and its status as a peacekeeper.

SpoonerRecent tensions over the war in Iraq and bal-listic missile defence triggered alarm in Canada about whether or not the United States might be prepared to make coercive linkages between is-sues to force changes to Canadian policies. And subsequent proposals for closer collaboration have raised questions about whether Canada is compelled to get closer to the US in order to avoid being trampled by it. The Politics of Linkage looks closely at four major bilateral disputes between the two countries to show that – contrary to some reports – the US did not resort to coercive issue-linkages. The author explains US restraint in relations with Canada, and its shifting bases over time, drawing attention to the unique social and institutional context of Canada-US bargaining. This book sheds light on one of the fundamental controversies in Canada-US relations, with im-portant implications for every aspect of Canadian foreign and domestic policies.

This dualistic view of Canada’s inter-national relations is deeply flawed. In At Home and Abroad, Patrick Lennox argues that how Canada engages with the world is fun-damentally conditioned by how it relates to the US. He develops and tests a theory of Canada-US political relations and the general pattern of Canada’s external behaviour across a series of case studies, including the Vietnam War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the nuclear weapons con-troversy (1945-present), and the War on Terror.essential reading for anyone seeking a sophisti-cated, highly original, and theoretically grounded analysis of the past fifty years in Canada-US relations and Canadian foreign policy, this book will also be of interest to scholars and policymak-ers seeking insights into the nature of hierarchi-cal inter-state relationships and the patterns of subordinate states in the international system.

Douglas, official historian of the Canadian Armed ForcesIn 1957 Lester Pearson won the Nobel Peace Prize for creating the United Nations emergency Force during the Suez Crisis. The award launched Canada’s love affair with, and reputation for, peacekeeping. Pearson’s Peacekeepers, explores the reality behind the rhetoric by offering a detailed account of the UNeF’s decade-long effort to keep peace along the egyptian-Israeli border.

Carroll Foreword by Robert BothwellThe Organisation for economic Co-operation and Development is a much cited but little studied institution, and its role in international governance is poorly understood. Nevertheless, the OeCD plays an important role in the emerging structure of global governance. Focusing upon the OeCD’s core functions, contributors to this volume trace the OeCD’s history, structure, and role in inter-national governance as well as its function as a “policy ideas generator” and purveyor of “best practices” in a variety of economic and social policy domains.

The emergence of a US-dominated world and of an integrated North American economy and the decline of multilateral rules and institutions as prime instruments of global governance have left Canadian foreign policy searching for new pur-pose and direction.

But what distinguishes the present era from "golden" periods of empire building in past? Which elements of contem-porary globalization and forms of autonomy are particularly novel and which are merely continua-tions of long-standing historical trends? This book brings together a distinguished group of scholars who explore particular historical mo-ments that involved either the establishment or protection of autonomy. These global encounters inevitably involved friction, and the contributors examine the dialectic between globalization and autonomy at moments that range in time from the Chinese occupation of Tibet in 1720 to the meeting between Reagan and Gorbachev in 1986 that led to the end of the Cold War. By examining uniquely telling moments in the history of global-ization and autonomy, this innovative collection provides insights into changes that are overtaking the contemporary world. StePhen m.

This unsettling of legitimacy raises ques-tions. Under what conditions do individuals and communities accept globalized decision making as legitimate? And what political practices do in-dividuals and collectivities under globalization use to exercise autonomy? To answer these ques-tions, the contributors to Unsettled Legitimacy explore the disruptions and reconfigurations of political authority that accompany globalization. Arguing that we live in an era when political legitimacy at multiple scales of authority is under strain, they show that globalization has also created demands for regulation, security, and the protection of rights and expressions of individual and collective autonomy.

Until the 1970s, however, these contributions were generally overlooked. Opening Doors Wider looks at the progress made in the last forty years to raise the profile of women’s involvement in public life. The contributors focus on two questions with reference to community activism, the politics of feminist organizing, parties and elections, and the communications environment in which politi-cians operate. First, are the doors to participation presently open wider than they were in the past? Second, how can these doors be opened wider, both in terms of real-world participation and our scholarly understanding of public engagement? These tightly argued essays shed new light on the quality of public involvement of women in one of the world’s most stable democracies. The nuanced discussion of solutions as well as problems makes it an indispensable resource for students and practitioners of politics at all levels.

Deliberative democrats want politics to be more than a clash of contending interests, and they believe political decisions should emerge from reasoned dialogue among citizens. But can these ideals be realized in complex and unjust societies? In Deliberative Democracy in Practice, leading scholars explore debates in deliberative democratic theory through the lens of four areas of practice: education, con-stitutions and state boundaries, indigenous-set-tler relations, and citizen participation and public consultation. This dynamic collection casts new light on the strengths and limitations of delibera-tive democratic theory, and offers guidance to policy-makers and food for thought for everyone interested in democratic justice. david Kahane is an associate professor and Vargo Distinguished Teaching Chair in the Department of Political Science at the University of Alberta. daniel WeinStOCK is a professor of philosophy and Canada Research Chair in ethics and Political Philosophy at Université de Montréal. dOminiQue leydet is a professor of philosophy at Université de Québec à Montréal. meliSSa WilliamS is a professor of political sci-ence at the University of Toronto.November 2009, 222 pages (est.), 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1677-9 hC $85.00deliberative democracy in Practiceedited by david Kahane, daniel Weinstock, dominique leydet, and melissa Williams POlitiCal SCienCePOlitiCal SCienCePOlitiCal SCienCe10 FALL 09 | order online @ www.ubcpress.ca order online @ www.ubcpress.ca | FALL 09 11 Canada is an officially bilingual country.

With new and compelling case studies, she moves us out of the linguistic focus of Kymlicka and Taylor in Canada and the religious/ethnic focus of many American tracts.– Hawley Fogg-Davis, author of The Ethics of Transracial AdoptionIdentity/Difference Politics offers a nuanced critique of these debates by switching the focus from culture to power. Issues of power are examined through accounts of meaning-making – those processes through which meanings of dif-ference are produced, organized, and regulated. Other forms of identity/difference such as whiteness, ableism, gender, and heteronormativ-ity establish the analytic and normative value of Dhamoon’s alternative theoretical framework, and reveal that an exclusive preoccupation with culture can dissolve into essentialism – which too often provides a rationale for state regulation of groups deemed to be too different.rita dhamOOn teaches in the Department of Philosophy and Political Science at the University of the Fraser Valley, British Columbia.

Unions, Equity, and the Path to Renewal brings together a distinguished group of union activists and equity scholars who trace how traditional union cultures, practices, and structures have eroded solidarity and activism and created an equity deficit in Canadian unions. Informed by a feminist vision of unions as instruments of social justice, the contributors argue that equity within unions is not simply one possible path to union renewal – it is the only way to reposition organized labour as a central institution in workers’ lives.

China’s prodigious expansion of steel output increases the industry’s natural vulnerability to oversupply and volatile prices. And the merger of the two largest steelmakers, Arcelor and Mittal, portends consolidation as a prime strategy for diversification and stabilization. Big Steel examines the competition and survival strategies of the integrated steel industry from various vantage points: cost structures and tech-nology, export pricing strategies, the economics of trade protection, Paul Krugman’s Nobel Prize-winning explanation of industrial diffusion and trade, and the prospects of cooperating closely with the industry’s biggest customers, the auto-makers.

A Perilous Imbalance marries political economy with socio-legal analysis to show how law and governance are deployed by various actors to advance globalizing agendas. Its critical interdisci-plinary analysis traces the emergence of a global supraconstitution by which transnational corpo-rations and powerful states discipline demo-cratic governance in pursuit of neoconservative economic globalization. This work documents the contradictory transformations of the Canadian state as it has retreated from some areas while reasserting itself in others. It also looks beyond the state and interstate systems to examine governance initiatives involving actors from civil society, business, and government.

The study of Metis identity formation has also emerged as an innovative way to explore cul-tural encounters and change in North American history and anthropology. In One of the Family, Brenda Macdougall employs the concept of wahkootowin – the Cree term for a worldview that privileges family and values interconnectedness – to trace the emergence of a Metis community in northern Saskatchewan. Wahkootowin describes how relationships in the nineteenth century were supposed to work and helps to explain how the Metis negotiated with fur trade companies and the Roman Catholic Church while nurturing a society that emphasized family obligation and responsibility. This path-breaking study offers a model for future research and discussion that will appeal to anyone interested in the history of the fur trade or Metis culture and identity.

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 legal and policy environment.This companion volume to First Nations Cultural Heritage and Law looks at the key features of Canadian, US, and international law influencing indigenous cultural heritage in Canada. Legal and extralegal avenues for reform are examined, including ethics codes, research protocols, institutional policies, human rights law, and First Nation legal orders. The book also discusses the opportunities and limits of existing frameworks and questions whether a radical shift in legal and political relations is necessary for First Nations concerns to be meaningfully addressed.

This collection addresses the origins of mental health and social problems and the emergence of culturally responsive approaches to services and health promotion. Divided into four sections, this book provides an overview of 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. laurenCe J.

The ensuing years have brought im-mense change for the Cree, who now live with the consequences of Quebec’s massive develop-ment of hydroelectricity, timber, and mineral resources in the North. Home Is the Hunter presents the historical, en-vironmental, and cultural context from which this recent story grows. Hans Carlson shows how the Cree view their lands as their home, their garden, and their memory of themselves as a people. By investigating the Cree’s relationship with the land and their three hundred years of contact with outsiders, the author illuminates the process of cultural negotiation at the foundation of ongoing political and environmental debates.

Towns and cities at the farthest reaches of empire were crucial to the settler colonial project. yet the experiences of Indigenous peoples in these urban frontiers have been overshadowed by triumphant narratives of progress. Urbanizing Frontiers explores the lives of Indigenous peoples and settlers in two Pacific Rim cities – Victoria, British Columbia, and Melbourne, Australia. Built on Indigenous lands and overtaken by gold rushes, these cities emerged between 1835 and 1871 in significantly different locations, yet both became cross-cultural and segregated sites of empire. This innovative study traces how these spaces, and the bodies in them, were trans-formed, sometimes in violent ways, creating new spaces and new polities.

Wawa’s sources lie first in the language of the Chinookans who lived along the lower Columbia River, but also with the Nootkans of the outer coast of Vancouver Island. 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.

This path-breaking collection brings together scholars who argue that the environ-mental struggles of citizens’ groups, eNGOs, First Nations, and other actors are necessarily also struggles about democracy and citizenship, and that ecological goals cannot be achieved without the democratization of existing norms and institutions. Case studies ranging from the crises of coastal fisheries, to the regulation of genetically modified crops, to opposition to urban sprawl analyze these conflicts from the perspec-tives of environmental justice, social movement theory, the roles of science, and institutional design. Two chapters offer a critical assessment of green democratic theory.By grounding theory in empirical study of social actors, political economy, and institutions, Environmental Conflict and Democracy in Canada charts a new course for research in environmen-tal citizenship.

The subject is of fundamental importance and the author’s emphasis on the need to posit environmental concerns within a socio-natural understanding is vital. – Alex Loftus, Department of Geography, University of LondonWe all know what water is and many of us take it for granted. But because it seems so natural, the way we see water is seldom given critical atten-tion. This book provides a much-needed analysis of how we view water, showing that modern understandings have given rise to a global crisis.Jamie Linton argues that modern Western society tends to understand water as a scientific abstraction – as merely H20 or the substance occurring in the hydrologic cycle. We have lost sight of its essential fecundity and stripped it of its wider environmental, social, and cul-tural contexts. This removal, or abstraction, has given modern society license to treat water as something that may dammed, diverted, and manipulated with impunity. The water crisis can be averted, Linton concludes, by deliberately reinvesting water with social content.

This book’s multi-level, interdisciplinary comparative analysis yields a rich set of insights that chal-lenge many conventional regulatory paradigms. – Michael Trebilcock, co-author of The Regulation of International TradeThe Forest Stewardship Council (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 recent estab-lishment of an FSC standard for British Columbia was achieved only after difficult and protracted negotiations at the regional, national, and global levels. Drawing on a pioneering case study of the negotiation process, this book explores the chal-lenges associated with implementing the FSC’s global vision. It also undertakes a comparative analysis of FSC standards and standard-setting processes elsewhere in Canada and in the US and europe, and grapples with the broader implica-tions of the emerging FSC experience for global governance and regulatory theory.

Full ethical consideration for animals result-ing 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 suc-cess; it subsequently went into another period of decline that lasted through much of the twentieth century. The authority-questioning cultural revolu-tion of the 1960s brought a fresh resurgence of vegetarian ethics that continues to the present day.

When the air, land, and water around us are different from what we have known, how will we make sense of the “new normal” or, more probably, a “cascade of new normals”? Joy Parr tackles these questions by looking at local examples from the recent past of people who have had to cope with radical changes in habitats where they lived and worked, and in which they expected to persist. The lives of the people described in her accounts were altered by megaprojects (military training grounds, dams and re-engineered waterways, chemical plants, and nuclear reactors) and by environmental fac-tors (new patterns in animal husbandry practices and seasonal rains). In every case, familiar worlds were lost and transformed so thoroughly that long-time residents no longer knew the place where they lived and could no longer be confi-dent about where they were, and by implication, who they were.

Carolyn Whitzman tracks Parkdale’s story across three eras: its early decades as a politically indepen-dent suburb of the industrial city; its half-century of ostensible decline toward becoming a slum; and a post-industrial period of transformation into a revitalized urban village. This book also shows how Parkdale’s image influenced planning policy for the neighbourhood.Whitzman demonstrates that image and reality have not always correlated for Parkdale. For example, even while its reputation as a gentri-fied area grew in the post-sixties era, the overall health and income of the neighbourhood’s residents was in fact decreasing, and the area attracted media coverage as a “dumping ground” for psychiatric out-patients. Parkdale’s changing image thus stood in stark contrast to its real so-cial conditions. Nevertheless, this image became a self-fulfilling prophecy, as it contributed to increasingly discriminatory planning practices for Parkdale in the late twentieth century.CarOlyn Whitzman is senior lecturer in Urban Planning at the University of Melbourne.PreviOuSly annOunCedMay 2009, 240 pages, 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1535-2 hC $85.00Suburb, Slum, urban villageThe Transformations of Toronto’s Parkdale Neighbourhood, 1875–2002Carolyn WhitzmanWhen manufacturers and retailers vacate tradi-tional locations, they leave holes in a city’s fabric that signal a shifting urban-industrial terrain. Who should mend these spaces, and how should they approach the problem?Using Toronto’s Dundas Square and surround-ing area as a case study, Thinking Planning and Urbanism meticulously reconstructs the rede-velopment process to explore the theories and practices used. It traces the labyrinth of competing interests that can sideline and nearly overwhelm the public-planning function. In these circumstanc-es, Moore Milroy concludes, practising planners are marooned by planning theories that begin from the premise that urban space is a social construc-tion and only secondarily a function of technology and aesthetics. This book makes plain the nature of the gap between the practice of planning and its theories, a gap that inhibits planners from effectively championing creative actions to deal with post-industrial problems. The findings drawn from this case will be widely recognized in rede-velopment elsewhere, and thus will be extremely useful to students and practitioners of urban design, public administration, municipal law, and urban and regional planning.

Ion investigates the impact of American Protestant missionaries and Christian laymen, or oyatoi, from their arrival in 1859 to the open propagation of Christianity in 1873. His exploration of their aspirations and efforts in private, mission, and government schools reveals that the transmission of values and beliefs was not a simple matter of acceptance or rejection.

These programs hinged on new visions of childhood that origi-nated in england and europe, but what happened when they were transported to the colonies?This book unwinds the tangled threads of this history by tracing how enlightenment thought and Romantic ideas translated into early infant schools in england, kindergartens in Germany and the United States, and free kindergarten systems in the Commonwealth countries. The systems that emerged in Canada, Australia, and New zealand maintained the integrity of the ideas and models that inspired them but adapted them to suit local ideas, politics, and populations. This unique account of early childhood education in comparative perspective provides fresh insight into how to reconcile educational theory and practice in an increasingly global world. larry PrOChner is a professor of early child-hood education at the University of Alberta.PreviOuSly annOunCedJune 2009, 352 pages, 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1659-5 hC $85.00a history of early Childhood education in Canada, australia, and new zealandlarry ProchnerThe passage of time and passion, as well as the availability of new materials, bring a new focus to work on the Cultural Revolution.

The personal experiences and new documents in Art in Turmoil combine with exqui-site scholarship to deepen our understanding of the artistic life of Maoist China.– Richard Kraus, author of The Party and the Arty in China: The New Politics of CultureForty years after China’s tumultuous Cultural Revolution, this book revisits the visual and performing arts of the period – the paintings, propaganda posters, political cartoons, sculpture, folk arts, private sketchbooks, opera, and ballet – and examines what these vibrant, militant, often gaudy images meant to artists, their patrons, and their audiences at the time, and what they mean now, both in their original forms and as revolu-tionary icons reworked for a new market-oriented age. Chapters by scholars of Chinese history and art and by artists whose careers were shaped by the Cultural Revolution offer new insights into works that have transcended their times. riChard KinG is Director of the Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives and Associate Professor of Chinese Studies at the University of Victoria.November 2009, 272 pages, 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1542-0 hC $85.00CONTeMPORARy CHINeSe STUDIeS SeRIeSart in turmoilThe Chinese Cultural Revolution, 1966–76edited by richard KingThe history of Canada’s postwar foreign policy is dominated by Cold War narratives – the Gouzenko Affair, UN peacekeeping missions, and the Cuban Missile Crisis. By contrast, the story of Canada’s response to decolonization in the Global South is less well known. Fire and the Full Moon explores Canadian-Indonesian relations to determine whether Canada’s postwar foreign policy was guided by an overarching set of principles. By framing Canada’s response to Indonesian independence within a trans-Pacific international context, it shows that Canada was a loyal member of the Western alliance. Meanwhile, its policymakers wanted developing countries to follow Canada’s own non-revolutionary model of decoloniza-tion. Larger policy objectives and economic development work, in turn, caused Canada to overlook Indonesian human rights violations in east Timor. Webster’s reassessment of Canada’s foreign policy objectives and national image will appeal to students and practitioners of Canadian foreign policy and relations with Asia and the developing world. david WeBSter is a postdoctoral Kiriyama Research Fellow at the University of San Francisco.

In beautiful prose, Sapphistries tells their stories, capturing the multitude of ways that diverse societies have shaped female same-sex sexuality across time and place. Leila J. Rupp reveals how, from the time of the very earliest societies, the possibility of love between women has been known, even when it is feared, ignored, or denied. Sapphistries combines lyrical narrative with meticulous histori-cal research, providing an eminently readable and uniquely sweeping story of desire, love, and sex between women around the globe from the beginning of time to the present.leila J. ruPP is professor of feminist studies and associate dean of the division of social sciences at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Conceptualized as either harbingers or saboteurs of a bright, secure tomorrow, young people have motivated many adult-driven plans to improve their communities’ future. But have all children benefited from these programs and initiatives? Lost Kids examines the demonization and inadequate care of vulnerable children. From explorations of interracial adoption and the treatment of children with disabilities to discussions of the cultural construction of the hopeless child, this multifaceted collection re-jects the essentialism of the “priceless child” or “lost youth” – simplistic categories that continue to shape the treatment of those who deviate from the so-called norm.The volume editors are based at the University of British Columbia. mOna GleaSOn teaches in the Department of educational Studies. tamara myerS and leSlie PariS teach in the Department of History. verOniCa StrOnG-BOaG teaches in the Department of educational Studies and Women’s Studies.November 2009, 256 pages (est.), 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1686-1 hC $85.00lost KidsVulnerable Children and Youth in Twentieth-Century Canada and the United Statesedited by mona Gleason, tamara myers, leslie Paris, and veronica Strong-BoagMarket relations” and “knowledge economies” have become key phrases in university debates over research and academic priorities, while privatization reveals tensions between public and private sectors. Pressures for capital accumula-tion, research commercialization, technology transfer, and academic capitalism create fractures in today’s universities by weakening boundaries separating academy and industry. Furthermore, through legislation and policy, governments have created quasi-markets that encourage institu-tional competition both within the public sphere and between public and private sectors.

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 organiza-tions 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.

Reconstructed from official security regime documents released through the Access to Information Act and interviews with gays, lesbians, civil servants, and high-ranking officials, The Canadian War on Queers offers a passionate, personalized account of a national security campaign that violated people’s civil rights and freedoms in an attempt to regulate their sexual practices. Gary Kinsman and Patrizia Gentile disclose not only the acts of state repression that accompanied the Canadian war on queers but also forms of resistance that raise questions about just whose national security was being protected and about national security as an ideological practice. This path-breaking account of how the state used national security to wage war on its own people offers ways of understanding, and resisting, contemporary ideological conflicts such as the “war on terror.” It is required reading for students, scholars, and social activists in lesbian, gay, and queer studies or anyone interested in the issues of national security, state repression, and human rights.Gary KinSman is the author of The Regulation of Desire and an editor of Sociology for Changing the World. He is a professor in the Sociology Department at Laurentian University, Sudbury. Patrizia Gentile is assistant professor in the Pauline Jewett Institute of Women’s and Gender Studies at Carleton University.related BOOKSthe manly modernMasculinity in Postwar CanadaChriStOPher dummitt 2007, 232 pages978-0-7748-1275-7 PB $32.95Sexuality Studies seriesmasculinities without men?Female Masculinity in Twentieth-Century FictionsJean BOBBy nOBle 2003, 222 pages978-0-7748-0997-9 PB $32.95Sexuality Studies seriesQueer youth in the Province of the “Severely normal“GlOria Filax 2006, 200 pages978-0-7748-1246-7 PB $29.95 Sexuality Studies seriesCanada's rights revolutionSocial Movements and Social Change, 1937–82dOminiQue Clement 2008, 296 pages978-0-7748-1480-5 PB $32.95 Gay male PornographyAn Issue of Sex DiscriminationChriStOPher Kendall 2004, 296 pagesPaperback978-0-7748-1077-7 PB $32.95Law and Society seriesGendering the nation-StateCanadian and Compara-tive PerspectivesyaSmeen aBu-laBan 2008, 320 pages978-0-7748-1466-9 PB $34.95November 2009, 560 pages, 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1627-4 hC $85.00SexUALITy STUDIeS SeRIeS2 FALL 09 | order online @ www.ubcpress.ca order online @ www.ubcpress.ca | FALL 09 3 Canadian hiStOryCanadian hiStOryCanadian hiStOryOn the art of Being CanadianSherill GraceIt is my contention that Canadian artists, biogra-phers, historians, and creative writers show every-one who will pay attention – will use their eyes and ears to listen to the heartbeat of the country – what it means to be Canadian through their representations of nordicity and war, and through their inventions of national icons.– Sherrill GraceWhen Vincent Massy wrote On Being Canadian in 1948, he acknowledged the importance of the arts to education and citizenship. He did not consider what the arts can tell us about being Canadian or about being ourselves. In On the Art of Being Canadian, Sherrill Grace traces how painters, writers, and filmmakers have shaped Canadian identity in three fields of representation that are staples in Canadian culture – the North, iconic national figures, and war. By telling stories in their chosen medium and genre about life here or about events and figures from the past, she shows that artists help us to understand the Canadian landscape and to create a shared history.Sherrill GraCe is Professor of english at the University of British Columbia.

In this important work, Alan Gordon presents a single national hero – Jacques Cartier – to explore how notions about the past are created and re-created throughout generations. The Hero and the Historians shows how the celebrations of Jacques Cartier took on forms connected to the development of historical studies in the nineteenth century and how these forms, in turn, shaped the political and cultural currents of national identities and nation build-ing. The image of Cartier changed gradually over time, reflecting the long-term ideological fluctuations that alter the nature of historical understanding. Setting this book apart from other works on com-memoration and memory is the effort made to integrate divergent views into a single argument. Jacques Cartier represents a point of contact between english- and French-Canadian national-isms but, as this book reveals, there are profound limitations to the nature of that contact. This book is necessary reading for people interested in the underlying culture of national identity, and national unity, in Canadian history. alan GOrdOn is a professor in the History Department at the University of Guelph.December 2009, 222 pages (est.), 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1741-7 hC $85.00 8 illustrationsHow did British colonists in Victorian Montreal come to think of themselves as ”native Canadian”? This incisive, richly illustrated work reveals that colonists adopted Aboriginal and French Canadian activities – hunting, lacrosse, snowshoeing, and tobogganing – and appropri-ated them by imposing British ideologies of order, discipline, and fair play. In the process, they constructed national attributes, or visual icons, that were recognized at home and abroad as distinctly ”Canadian.” The new Canadian nationality mimicked indigenous characteristics but, ultimately, rejected indigenous players, and championed the interests of white, middle-class, Protestant males who used their newly acquired identity to dominate the political realm.Becoming Native in a Foreign Land demonstrates that english Canadian identity was not formed solely by emulating what was British, it gained enormous ground by usurping what was indigen-ous in the fertile landscape of a foreign land.

But was this program, which gave all mothers a monthly stipend to raise the nation’s babies, driven by a desire to create a kinder, gentler nation or was it more influenced by economics, constitution-mak-ing, and international trends in public policy? This book explores the family allowance phenomenon from its debut in 1929 to its demise as a univer-sal program under the Mulroney government in 1992. Although successive federal governments remained committed to its underlying principle of universality, party politics, the bureaucracy, federal-provincial wrangling, and the shifting priorities of citizens eroded the rights-based ap-proach to social security and replaced it with one based on need. By tracing the evolution of one social security program within a national perspec-tive, this book sheds light on the process by which Canada’s welfare state and social policy has been transformed over the past half century. raymOnd B.

This wide-ranging, engaging book examines the ideas of AngloCanadian theorists who saw technology as a new imperative that would either enhance or threaten the moral imperative. From the mid-nineteenth century onward, advocates argued that technology, as a moral force, would strengthen the ties that bound Canada to Britain and Western civilization, while opponents saw technology as a source of American power that threatened Canadian independence.The Technological Imperative in Canada offers new insights into the ideas of influential Canadian theorists of technology such as Harold Innis and Marshall McLuhan and introduces readers to the ideas and perceptions of lesser-known but key figures such as Sandford Fleming, Stephen Leacock, and e.J. Pratt. This seminal book re-vises the entrenched notion that AngloCanadian thought has been dominated by the moral imperative.

This collec-tion looks at nurses and nursing in a wide range of settings from the mid-1800s to the 1970s, including indigenous women on the Canadian prairies; First World War nurses posted over-seas; outpost nurses in rural and remote areas of Saskatchewan, Ontario, and Quebec; public health nurses in Winnipeg; and religious congre-gations in nursing education in New Brunswick.The contributors use feminist and historical perspectives to illustrate how place, understood as both social context and geographic setting, shaped nursing identities and practices. Many nurses found place both liberating and constrain-ing, often simultaneously. Paying attention to place also situates these nurses and their work within larger historical themes of nation-building, war, and political change.

Holmes joined the foreign service in 1943, headed the Canadian Institute of International Affairs from 1960 to 1973, and, as a professor of international relations, mentored a generation of students and scholars. This book is the first comprehensive biography of a diplomat and public intellec-tual who influenced not only how scholars and statespeople abroad viewed Canada but also how Canadians saw themselves on the world stage.

Did parents simply want a break, or were broader developments at play? The Nurture of Nature explores the history of summer camps and sheds light on a wider phenomenon: the divided consciousness that informs modern assumptions about nature, tech-nology, and identity. Wall examines how two competing tendencies – antimodern nostalgia and modern sensibilities about the landscape, child rearing, and identity – played out in the camp’s interaction with nature, its class and gendered dimensions, its engage-ment with emerging ideologies of childhood, and in the politics of race inherent in its "Indian" programming. The Nurture of Nature offers a nuanced discus-sion of the summer camp’s contribution to modern social life that will appeal to students and practitioners of the history of childhood, the natural environment, and recreation or anyone who has been packed off to camp and wants to explore why.

Between 1916 and 1918, Lance-Corporal George Timmins, a British-born soldier who served in the Canadian expeditionary Force, wrote faithfully to his wife and children. Sixty-three letters and four fragments survived. These letters tell the compelling story of a man who, while helping his fellow Canadians make history at Vimy, Lens, Passchendaele, and Amiens, used letters home to remain a presence in the lives of his wife and children, and who drew strength from his family to appreciate life’s simple pleasures.

ShawThe procurement of military weapons and equip-ment in Canada has often been controlled by partisan political considerations – not by a clear desire to increase the capability of the military. As a result, Canada has often failed to be ef-fective in the design, production, or even the purchase, of weapons and equipment. The Sea King helicopter is a case in point. The Politics of Procurement outlines the history of failed attempts to replace this helicopter. Officially commissioned in 1975, only to be cancelled (to the tune of $478 million), then re-commissioned again, the new helicopters are still years away. This book is the first of its kind to provide a clear description and analysis of the procurement process in Canada. More than a saga about a poorly executed military acquisition, this book is about why the Canadian military has always been under-equipped and often embarrassed on the world stage. It will be of interest to students and practitioners of public policy and political science and a resource for anyone seeking information on defence spending in Canada.aarOn PlamOndOn teaches Military History at the University of Calgary and Mount Royal College and is a Research Associate at the Centre for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary.November 2009, 256 pages (est.), 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1714-1 hC $85.00the Politics of ProcurementMilitary Acquisitions in Canada and the Sea King Helicopteraaron PlamondonThe Politics of ProcurementMilitary Acquisitions in Canada and the Sea King HelicopterAAron PlAMondon6 FALL 09 | order online @ www.ubcpress.ca order online @ www.ubcpress.ca | FALL 09 7 BC hiStOryBC hiStOryBC hiStOryThis book demonstrates the significance of demographic knowledge to our understanding of the province’s history and its historiography.

The introduction of exotic diseases changed the human landscape almost overnight, as did gold rushes, industrialization, two world wars, a baby boom, late 20th-century immigration from Asia, and a grey wave. Becoming British Columbia is the first comprehensive, demographic history of this province.

The colonists who followed soon realized they needed a written history, both to justify their dispossession of Aboriginal peoples and to for-mulate an identity for a new settler society. Writing British Columbia History shows how euro-Canadian historians took up this task, and struggled with the newness of colonial society and overlapping alliances to the British empire, the United States, and Canada. In explorers’ accounts, promotional literature, “pioneer” his-tories, and academic studies, they eased these tensions by defining British Columbia as part of a global British empire, incorporating it into an expanding Anglo-Saxon civilization, and writing it into the empire of history itself. This sweeping study of the role of history writing in colonialism and nation building will appeal to anyone interested in BC history, the history of the Pacific Northwest, or history writing in Canada.

In this definitive study, Spooner meets the challenge of presenting such a thorny subject clearly and persuasively. This is a superb book on a difficult topic that tells us much about UN peacekeeping and Canada’s part in it.– Hector Mackenzie, Senior Departmental Historian, Department of Foreign Affairs and International TradeIn 1960 the Republic of Congo teetered near collapse as its first government struggled to cope with civil unrest and mutinous armed forces. When the UN established a peacekeeping operation to deal with the crisis, the Canadian government faced a difficult decision. Should it support the intervention? Offering one of the first detailed accounts of Canadian involvement in a UN peacekeeping mission, Kevin Spooner reveals that Canada’s in-volvement was not a certainty: the Diefenbaker government had immediate and ongoing reservations about the mission, reservations that challenge cherished notions of Canada’s commitment to the UN and its status as a peacekeeper.

SpoonerRecent tensions over the war in Iraq and bal-listic missile defence triggered alarm in Canada about whether or not the United States might be prepared to make coercive linkages between is-sues to force changes to Canadian policies. And subsequent proposals for closer collaboration have raised questions about whether Canada is compelled to get closer to the US in order to avoid being trampled by it. The Politics of Linkage looks closely at four major bilateral disputes between the two countries to show that – contrary to some reports – the US did not resort to coercive issue-linkages. The author explains US restraint in relations with Canada, and its shifting bases over time, drawing attention to the unique social and institutional context of Canada-US bargaining. This book sheds light on one of the fundamental controversies in Canada-US relations, with im-portant implications for every aspect of Canadian foreign and domestic policies.

This dualistic view of Canada’s inter-national relations is deeply flawed. In At Home and Abroad, Patrick Lennox argues that how Canada engages with the world is fun-damentally conditioned by how it relates to the US. He develops and tests a theory of Canada-US political relations and the general pattern of Canada’s external behaviour across a series of case studies, including the Vietnam War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the nuclear weapons con-troversy (1945-present), and the War on Terror.essential reading for anyone seeking a sophisti-cated, highly original, and theoretically grounded analysis of the past fifty years in Canada-US relations and Canadian foreign policy, this book will also be of interest to scholars and policymak-ers seeking insights into the nature of hierarchi-cal inter-state relationships and the patterns of subordinate states in the international system.

Douglas, official historian of the Canadian Armed ForcesIn 1957 Lester Pearson won the Nobel Peace Prize for creating the United Nations emergency Force during the Suez Crisis. The award launched Canada’s love affair with, and reputation for, peacekeeping. Pearson’s Peacekeepers, explores the reality behind the rhetoric by offering a detailed account of the UNeF’s decade-long effort to keep peace along the egyptian-Israeli border. The operation was a tremendous achieve-ment, yet the UNeF also encountered formidable challenges and problems.

To answer these ques-tions, the contributors to Unsettled Legitimacy explore the disruptions and reconfigurations of political authority that accompany globalization. Arguing that we live in an era when political legitimacy at multiple scales of authority is under strain, they show that globalization has also created demands for regulation, security, and the protection of rights and expressions of individual and collective autonomy.

Second, how can these doors be opened wider, both in terms of real-world participation and our scholarly understanding of public engagement?

In Deliberative Democracy in Practice, leading scholars explore debates in deliberative democratic theory through the lens of four areas of practice: education, con-stitutions and state boundaries, indigenous-set-tler relations, and citizen participation and public consultation.

In the 1960s, a pioneering study by Vincent Lemieux and John Meisel revealed that associations were paralyzed by internal conflicts over language. Language Matters presents case studies of well-established and newer associa-tions to determine whether this has changed. The contributors examine key turning points in the given association’s history and highlight how its mandate, leadership, and relationship to the federal and provincial governments shaped its response to linguistic diversity. This book provides a deeper understanding of the lan-guage dynamic in Canada and offers solutions to groups and governments trying to manage difference. david r.

With new and compelling case studies, she moves us out of the linguistic focus of Kymlicka and Taylor in Canada and the religious/ethnic focus of many American tracts.– Hawley Fogg-Davis, author of The Ethics of Transracial AdoptionIdentity/Difference Politics offers a nuanced critique of these debates by switching the focus from culture to power. Issues of power are examined through accounts of meaning-making – those processes through which meanings of dif-ference are produced, organized, and regulated. Other forms of identity/difference such as whiteness, ableism, gender, and heteronormativ-ity establish the analytic and normative value of Dhamoon’s alternative theoretical framework, and reveal that an exclusive preoccupation with culture can dissolve into essentialism – which too often provides a rationale for state regulation of groups deemed to be too different.rita dhamOOn teaches in the Department of Philosophy and Political Science at the University of the Fraser Valley, British Columbia.

In The Provinces and Canadian Foreign Trade Policy, Kukucha argues that Canadian provinces have maintained a level of autonomy in response to these developments, sometimes even influencing Canada’s global trade relations and the evolution of international norms and standards. The first comprehen-sive review of provincial foreign trade policy in Canada, the book highlights the convergence of debates related to federalism, Canadian foreign policy, and the global political economy as they are played out in the negotiation and implementa-tion of international trade agreements.

In this way, it highlights the importance of history at the same time as mapping the evolution of core debates in two areas of inquiry – equity organiz-ing and union renewal – that, despite their clear relationship, are rarely bridged.– Leah Vosko, author of Managing the Margins: Gender, Citizenship and the International Regulation of Precarious Employment Trade unions in Canada are losing their traditional support base, and membership numbers could sink to US levels unless unions recapture their power. Unions, Equity, and the Path to Renewal brings together a distinguished group of union activists and equity scholars who trace how traditional union cultures, practices, and structures have eroded solidarity and activism and created an equity deficit in Canadian unions. Informed by a feminist vision of unions as instruments of social justice, the contributors argue that equity within unions is not simply one possible path to union renewal – it is the only way to reposition organized labour as a central institution in workers’ lives.

China’s prodigious expansion of steel output increases the industry’s natural vulnerability to oversupply and volatile prices. And the merger of the two largest steelmakers, Arcelor and Mittal, portends consolidation as a prime strategy for diversification and stabilization. Big Steel examines the competition and survival strategies of the integrated steel industry from various vantage points: cost structures and tech-nology, export pricing strategies, the economics of trade protection, Paul Krugman’s Nobel Prize-winning explanation of industrial diffusion and trade, and the prospects of cooperating closely with the industry’s biggest customers, the auto-makers.

A Perilous Imbalance marries political economy with socio-legal analysis to show how law and governance are deployed by various actors to advance globalizing agendas. Its critical interdisci-plinary analysis traces the emergence of a global supraconstitution by which transnational corpo-rations and powerful states discipline demo-cratic governance in pursuit of neoconservative economic globalization. This work documents the contradictory transformations of the Canadian state as it has retreated from some areas while reasserting itself in others. It also looks beyond the state and interstate systems to examine governance initiatives involving actors from civil society, business, and government.

Law and Religious Pluralism in Canada seeks to elucidate this com-plex and often uneasy relationship. The chapters are written by leading socio-legal scholars who consider the role of religious values in public deci-sion making, government support for religious practices, and the restriction and accommodation by government of minority religious practices. They examine such current issues as the legal recognition of sharia arbitration, the re-definition of civil marriage, and the accommodation of religious practice in the public sphere. riChard mOOn is a professor in the Faculty of Law at the University of Windsor.neW in PaPerBaCKJuly 2009, 328 pages, 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1497-3 hC $85.00978-0-7748-1498-0 PB $32.95LAW AND SOCIeTy SeRIeSlaw and religious Pluralism in Canadaedited by richard moonWas Bertha Wilson a feminist judge or not?

Wilson was the first woman lawyer and partner at a prominent Toronto law firm and the first woman appointed to the Ontario Court of Appeal. In light of her death in 2007 Wilson's extraordinary intellect and groundbreaking achieve-ments provoked reflection on her contributions to Canadian society and prompted the question, what difference do women judges make? Justice Bertha Wilson examines Wilson’s career through three distinct frames – foundations, controversy, and reflections – and a wide range of feminist perspectives.

A variety of topics are covered, ranging from libel law in New South Wales, Upper Canada, and Massachusetts to the much-neglected question of the extent to which British courts took note of the decisions made by courts in the settler dominions. hamar FOSter is a professor of law at the University of Victoria.

The study of Metis identity formation has also emerged as an innovative way to explore cul-tural encounters and change in North American history and anthropology. In One of the Family, Brenda Macdougall employs the concept of wahkootowin – the Cree term for a worldview that privileges family and values interconnectedness – to trace the emergence of a Metis community in northern Saskatchewan. Wahkootowin describes how relationships in the nineteenth century were supposed to work and helps to explain how the Metis negotiated with fur trade companies and the Roman Catholic Church while nurturing a society that emphasized family obligation and responsibility. This path-breaking study offers a model for future research and discussion that will appeal to anyone interested in the history of the fur trade or Metis culture and identity.

The ensuing years have brought im-mense change for the Cree, who now live with the consequences of Quebec’s massive develop-ment of hydroelectricity, timber, and mineral resources in the North. Home Is the Hunter presents the historical, en-vironmental, and cultural context from which this recent story grows. Hans Carlson shows how the Cree view their lands as their home, their garden, and their memory of themselves as a people. By investigating the Cree’s relationship with the land and their three hundred years of contact with outsiders, the author illuminates the process of cultural negotiation at the foundation of ongoing political and environmental debates.

Towns and cities at the farthest reaches of empire were crucial to the settler colonial project. yet the experiences of Indigenous peoples in these urban frontiers have been overshadowed by triumphant narratives of progress. Urbanizing Frontiers explores the lives of Indigenous peoples and settlers in two Pacific Rim cities – Victoria, British Columbia, and Melbourne, Australia.

Wawa’s sources lie first in the language of the Chinookans who lived along the lower Columbia River, but also with the Nootkans of the outer coast of Vancouver Island. 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.

This path-breaking collection brings together scholars who argue that the environ-mental struggles of citizens’ groups, eNGOs, First Nations, and other actors are necessarily also struggles about democracy and citizenship, and that ecological goals cannot be achieved without the democratization of existing norms and institutions. Case studies ranging from the crises of coastal fisheries, to the regulation of genetically modified crops, to opposition to urban sprawl analyze these conflicts from the perspec-tives of environmental justice, social movement theory, the roles of science, and institutional design. Two chapters offer a critical assessment of green democratic theory.By grounding theory in empirical study of social actors, political economy, and institutions, Environmental Conflict and Democracy in Canada charts a new course for research in environmen-tal citizenship.

The subject is of fundamental importance and the author’s emphasis on the need to posit environmental concerns within a socio-natural understanding is vital. – Alex Loftus, Department of Geography, University of LondonWe all know what water is and many of us take it for granted. But because it seems so natural, the way we see water is seldom given critical atten-tion. This book provides a much-needed analysis of how we view water, showing that modern understandings have given rise to a global crisis.Jamie Linton argues that modern Western society tends to understand water as a scientific abstraction – as merely H20 or the substance occurring in the hydrologic cycle. We have lost sight of its essential fecundity and stripped it of its wider environmental, social, and cul-tural contexts. This removal, or abstraction, has given modern society license to treat water as something that may dammed, diverted, and manipulated with impunity. The water crisis can be averted, Linton concludes, by deliberately reinvesting water with social content.

This book’s multi-level, interdisciplinary comparative analysis yields a rich set of insights that chal-lenge many conventional regulatory paradigms. – Michael Trebilcock, co-author of The Regulation of International TradeThe Forest Stewardship Council (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 recent estab-lishment of an FSC standard for British Columbia was achieved only after difficult and protracted negotiations at the regional, national, and global levels. Drawing on a pioneering case study of the negotiation process, this book explores the chal-lenges associated with implementing the FSC’s global vision. It also undertakes a comparative analysis of FSC standards and standard-setting processes elsewhere in Canada and in the US and europe, and grapples with the broader implica-tions of the emerging FSC experience for global governance and regulatory theory.

Full ethical consideration for animals result-ing 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 suc-cess; it subsequently went into another period of decline that lasted through much of the twentieth century. The authority-questioning cultural revolu-tion of the 1960s brought a fresh resurgence of vegetarian ethics that continues to the present day.

When the air, land, and water around us are different from what we have known, how will we make sense of the “new normal” or, more probably, a “cascade of new normals”? Joy Parr tackles these questions by looking at local examples from the recent past of people who have had to cope with radical changes in habitats where they lived and worked, and in which they expected to persist. The lives of the people described in her accounts were altered by megaprojects (military training grounds, dams and re-engineered waterways, chemical plants, and nuclear reactors) and by environmental fac-tors (new patterns in animal husbandry practices and seasonal rains). In every case, familiar worlds were lost and transformed so thoroughly that long-time residents no longer knew the place where they lived and could no longer be confi-dent about where they were, and by implication, who they were. Sensing Changes is a timely and prescient work by one of Canada’s premier historians. Parr offers new perspectives on how humans make sense of the world in the face of rapid environmental, technological, and social change.

Carolyn Whitzman tracks Parkdale’s story across three eras: its early decades as a politically indepen-dent suburb of the industrial city; its half-century of ostensible decline toward becoming a slum; and a post-industrial period of transformation into a revitalized urban village. This book also shows how Parkdale’s image influenced planning policy for the neighbourhood.Whitzman demonstrates that image and reality have not always correlated for Parkdale. For example, even while its reputation as a gentri-fied area grew in the post-sixties era, the overall health and income of the neighbourhood’s residents was in fact decreasing, and the area attracted media coverage as a “dumping ground” for psychiatric out-patients. Parkdale’s changing image thus stood in stark contrast to its real so-cial conditions. Nevertheless, this image became a self-fulfilling prophecy, as it contributed to increasingly discriminatory planning practices for Parkdale in the late twentieth century.CarOlyn Whitzman is senior lecturer in Urban Planning at the University of Melbourne.PreviOuSly annOunCedMay 2009, 240 pages, 6 x 9"978-0-7748-1535-2 hC $85.00Suburb, Slum, urban villageThe Transformations of Toronto’s Parkdale Neighbourhood, 1875–2002Carolyn WhitzmanWhen manufacturers and retailers vacate tradi-tional locations, they leave holes in a city’s fabric that signal a shifting urban-industrial terrain. Who should mend these spaces, and how should they approach the problem?Using Toronto’s Dundas Square and surround-ing area as a case study, Thinking Planning and Urbanism meticulously reconstructs the rede-velopment process to explore the theories and practices used. It traces the labyrinth of competing interests that can sideline and nearly overwhelm the public-planning function. In these circumstanc-es, Moore Milroy concludes, practising planners are marooned by planning theories that begin from the premise that urban space is a social construc-tion and only secondarily a function of technology and aesthetics. This book makes plain the nature of the gap between the practice of planning and its theories, a gap that inhibits planners from effectively championing creative actions to deal with post-industrial problems. The findings drawn from this case will be widely recognized in rede-velopment elsewhere, and thus will be extremely useful to students and practitioners of urban design, public administration, municipal law, and urban and regional planning.

Ion investigates the impact of American Protestant missionaries and Christian laymen, or oyatoi, from their arrival in 1859 to the open propagation of Christianity in 1873. His exploration of their aspirations and efforts in private, mission, and government schools reveals that the transmission of values and beliefs was not a simple matter of acceptance or rejection.

By contrast, the story of Canada’s response to decolonization in the Global South is less well known. Fire and the Full Moon explores Canadian-Indonesian relations to determine whether Canada’s postwar foreign policy was guided by an overarching set of principles. By framing Canada’s response to Indonesian independence within a trans-Pacific international context, it shows that Canada was a loyal member of the Western alliance. Meanwhile, its policymakers wanted developing countries to follow Canada’s own non-revolutionary model of decoloniza-tion. Larger policy objectives and economic development work, in turn, caused Canada to overlook Indonesian human rights violations in east Timor.

The first is that the greatest cultural achievement in the mountain region of Western Canada may be what has been preserved, not what has been developed. The second is that protecting the spine of the Rocky Mountains will preserve cru-cial ecological functions. Because the process of ecosystem diminishment and species loss has been slowed, an ecological thermostat has been kept alive, which may well be an important defence against future climate change impacts in the Canadian west.rOBert W.

The fam-ily left behind could only send letters after the Nazis closed in. Through the war years, letters kept coming to the southern Ontario farm where Helen’s small family learned to speak english, to be Canadian farmers, and to forget they were Jewish.Helen did not notice when the letters stopped coming, but they surfaced intermittently until she couldn’t ignore them anymore. Reading the letters changed everything. As her past refused to keep silent, Helen followed the trail of letters back to europe to find living witnesses of what the letters related. She has here interwoven their stories and her own in an engrossing narrative of suffer-ing and rescue, survivor guilt, and overcoming obstacles to intergenerational dialogue about a traumatic past.

It has also been the “home company” for some of the biggest names in Canadian theatre, such as Ann-Marie MacDonald.Scott shows how Nightwood has defined itself as a feminist company: its artistic leadership is based on collaborative models and the plays performed have been chosen for their relevance to the diverse communities of women.

In these regions, liberalism acted as an exclusionary force that enabled the use of extraordinary measures to remove Indigenous peoples from their ancestral territories.

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 organiza-tions 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.

The Bedaux expedition, which celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2009, is one of the most unusual events in the province’s history.Bob White was there. A cowboy who took part in the expedition, he describes the hardships of the journey, the beauty of the untouched wilderness, and the few inhabitants of the area. Whether he is recalling a winter snowshoe and dogsled trip or an adventure-filled summer journey, White’s memoirs take us to the campfire stories of people who were part of the vast wilderness of a different age.BOB White (1902–86) was born and raised in rural southwestern Saskatchewan.

British Columbia be-came a colony in 1858, and Free Spirit celebrates 150 years of history with a selection of vignettes about objects from our collective past and the people intimately involved with them. The stories of these objects reveal little-known facts, such as: the first book privately published in BC promoted gold mining on the Fraser River; a spirit guide from beyond the grave helped establish and name the Okanagan town of Naramata; and some of the rarest coins in the world were minted in New Westminster.In these glimpses of the past, Free Spirit captures the essence of British Columbia and the diversity of its people and landscapes The book comes with a 100-minute DVD collection of seven travelogues, showing areas of the province as they were promoted to tourists in the 1950s and 1960s. These colourful films show BC as it used to be, in the carefree spirit of the mid 20th century.Gerald truSCOtt was born and raised in British Columbia, and has spent most of his professional life publishing books, editing and writing for the Royal BC Museum.

Dombrowski, author of The Philosophy of VegetarianismThe issue of our ethical obligations to non human 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 Morals, Reason, and Animals Unlike previous books on the history of vegetarianism, 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 groundbreaking 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.

Rupp’s contribution is perhaps one of the most elegant and interesting – making up for the lapses of the past, Sapphistries sails an international course, giving us a rich mix of historical sources and an even richer gift of asking questions at just the right places.– Joan Nestle, co-editor of GenderQueerFrom the ancient poet Sappho to tombois in contemporary Indonesia, women throughout history and around the globe have desired, loved, and had sex with other women. In beautiful prose, Sapphistries tells their stories, capturing the multitude of ways that diverse societies have shaped female same-sex sexuality across time and place. Leila J. Rupp reveals how, from the time of the very earliest societies, the possibil-ity of love between women has been known, even when it is feared, ignored, or denied. We hear women in the sex-segregated spaces of convents and harems whispering words of love. We see women beginning to find each other on the streets of London and Amsterdam, in the aristocratic circles of Paris, in the factories of Shanghai. We find women’s desire and love for women meeting the light of day as Japanese schoolgirls fall in love, and lesbian bars and clubs spread from 1920s Berlin to 1950s Buffalo. And we encounter a world of difference in the twenty-first century, as transnational concepts and lesbian identities meet local understand-ings of how two women might love each other.Giving voice to words from the mouths and pens of women, and from men’s prohibitions, reports, literature, art, imaginings, pornography, and court cases, Rupp also creatively employs fiction to imagine possibilities when there is no historical evidence. Sapphistries combines lyrical narrative with meticulous historical research, providing an eminently readable and uniquely sweeping story of desire, love, and sex between women around the globe from the beginning of time to the present.Leila J. rupp is professor of feminist studies and associate dean of the division of social sciences at the University of California, Santa Barbara. She is author of many books, including A Desired Past: A Short History of Same-Sex Sexuality in America.SapphistriesA Global History of Love between WomenLeila J. ruppIn Mixed Company explores taverns as colonial public space and how men and women of diverse backgrounds – Native and newcomer, privileged and labouring, white and non-white – negotiated a place for themselves within them. The stories that emerge unsettle comfortable certainties about who belonged where in colonial society. Reconstructed from tavern-keepers’ accounts, court records, diaries, travelogues, and letters, In Mixed Company is essential reading for tavern aficionados and anyone interested in the history of gender, race, and culture in Canadian or colonial society. The records of the past tell stories of time spent in mixed company but also of the myriad, unequal ways that colonists found room in taverns and a place in Upper Canadian culture and society.Julia roberts is an assistant professor in the Department of History at the University of Waterloo. in Mixed Company Taverns and Public Life in Upper CanadaJulia robertsNew in PaperbackJuly 2009, 240 pages, 6 x 9" 978-0-7748-1576-5 PB $32.95978-0-7748-1575-8 HC $85.00History • Geography • CultureUBC PRESSNew in PaperbackDecember 2009, 320 pages 6 x 9", 29 figures978-0-7748-1782-0 PB $34.95Sexuality Studies • Women • HistorySExUALITy STUDIES SERIESUBC PRESS (CRO)4 FALL 09 | order online @ www.ubcpress.ca order online @ www.ubcpress.ca | FALL 09 5 HiSTOryHiSTOryThis book demonstrates the significance of demographic knowledge to our understanding of the province’s history and its historiography. It provides another lens through which to view the history of the province.– Ruth Sandwell, author of Beyond the City Limits: Rural History in British ColumbiaIn the 240 years from contact to the present, British Columbia’s population has experienced transformations of a kind and magnitude witnessed nowhere else in North America. The introduction of exotic diseases changed the human landscape almost overnight, as did gold rushes, industrialization, two world wars, a baby boom, late twentieth-century immigration from Asia, and a grey wave.Becoming British Columbia is the first compre-hensive demographic history of this province. Investigating critical moments in the demo graphic record and linking demographic patterns to larger social and political questions, it shows how biology, politics, and history conspire with sex, death, and migration to create a particular kind of society. John Belshaw overturns the widespread tendency to associate population growth with progress by examining how the province’s Aboriginal population of as much as half a million was reduced by disease to fewer than 30,000 people in less than a century. He reveals that the province has a long tradi-tion of thinking and acting vigorously in ways meant to control and shape biological commu-nities of humans, and suggests that imperial-ism, race, class, and gender have historically situated population issues at the centre of public consciousness in British Columbia.JOHN DOUGLAS BELSHAW, formerly professor of history at Thompson Rivers University, is now Associate Vice-President of Education at North Island College, Vancouver Island.Becoming British Columbia A Population History John Douglas Belshaw Crisis of Conscience Conscientious Objection in Canada during the First World WarAmy J. Shaw Crisis of Conscience is essential reading for anyone who wants a greater understanding of not only conscientious objection but of the entire Canadian experience during the First World War. It is an original and balanced examination of a contentious issue and an important contribution to an often neglected area of scholarship.– Thomas P. Socknat, co-editor of Challenge to Mars: Essays on Pacifism from 1918 to 1945An original and fascinating study of minor-ity religious rights in Canadian society during wartime. Crisis of Conscience will be an impor-tant source for readers interested in pacifism, anti-war sentiment, and peace movements, not just in Canada but in the wider western world.– David Marshall, author of Secularizing the Faith: Canadian Protestant Clergy and the Crisis of Belief, 1850-1940The First World War’s appalling death toll and the need for a sense of equality of sacrifice on the home front led to Canada’s first experience of overseas conscription. While historians have focused on resistance to enforced military service in Quebec, this has obscured the important role of those who saw military service as incompat-ible with their religious or ethical beliefs. Crisis of Conscience is the first and only book about the Canadian pacifists who refused to fight in the Great War. The experience of these conscientious objectors offers insight into evolving attitudes about the rights and responsibilities of citizenship during a key period of Canadian nation building.This book will appeal to readers interested in Canadian military and peace history.

Hart makes a compelling case for avoiding the false allure of the feel-gooders and for reversing Canada’s slide from peripheral to relevant in world affairs.– Derek Burney, former Canadian ambassador to the United StatesRecent Canadian foreign policy has fixated upon Canada’s former status as a middle power within a small club of western, democratic states. The emergence of a US-dominated world and of an integrated North American economy and the decline of multilateral rules and institutions have left Canadian foreign policy searching for new purpose and direction. This book brings Canadian foreign policy into the 21st century by ground-ing it in a conception of the national interest that accepts the primacy of the United States in guaranteeing Canadian national security and prosperity. 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. From Pride to influence Towards a New Canadian Foreign PolicyMichael Hart Electing a Diverse Canada is a “must read” and a potential classic in its field.

A retired Professor of Communication, Tompkins marshals his considerable experience as a participant observer in recording the voices of the guests of the shelter as they teach us about their situation. We learn about their hopes for regaining a home and their fears as they are victimized – in some cases even murdered. Tompkins shows how effective communication and organization can contribute to finding an end to homelessness and establishing a movement toward protective action, especially when a proactive local government gets involved. In addition to giving voice to homeless people, Who Is My Neighbor? explores Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper’s ambitious Commission to End Homelessness. This remarkable social experiment, now called Denver’s Road Home, is two years into implementing an innovative plan for ending homelessness.

Tompkins At a time when increasing numbers of people are tuning out the nightly news and media consump-tion is falling, the late-night comedians have become some of the most important newscast-ers in the country. From Cronkite to Colbert explains why. It examines an historical path that begins at the height of the network age with Walter Cronkite and Edward R. Murrow, when the evening news was considered the authorita-tive record of the day’s events and forged our assumptions about what “the news” is, or should be. The book then winds its way through the breakdown of that paradigm of “real” news to its reinvention in the unlikely form of such popular-ized shows as The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. From Cronkite to Colbert makes the case that rather than “fake news,” those shows should be understood as a new kind of journal-ism, one that has the potential to save the news and reinvigorate the conversation of democracy in today’s society.

Aggressive efforts to suppress the drug trade typically backfire by allowing insurgents to pose as the population’s protectors and win further legitimacy. A combination of laissez-faire toward cultivation and aggressive pursuit of traffickers is more likely to be fruitful. Vanda Felbab-Brown is a fellow in Foreign Policy at the Brookings Institution.

Shortly after her sixteenth birthday, Leonin learned from her mother that her father, a Cuban exile, was very much alive and living in Florida. Her attempts to contact him, however, were thwarted until four years later, when she left home in search of her roots. Her journey takes her to Miami, Colombia, and Cuba, and her search for cultural identity leads her to create memories, friendships, and romances. She finds moments of connection and redemption, ending up in Havana not as a cultural tourist but as an illegitimate daughter of Cuba looking for validation.

Through the war years, letters kept coming to the southern Ontario farm where Helen’s small family learned to speak English, to be Canadian farmers, and to forget they were Jewish.Helen did not notice when the letters stopped coming, but they surfaced intermittently until she couldn’t ignore them anymore. Reading the letters changed everything. As her past refused to keep silent, Helen followed the trail of letters back to Europe to find living witnesses of what the letters related.

People went to church, ate dinner, and relaxed with family and friends. But late that afternoon, calamity struck when a violent thunderstorm brought heavy rain and hail to the mountains and bare hills south of town. In Calamity, Joann Byrd, a native of eastern Oregon, carefully documents the poignant story of this small farm town in northeastern Oregon when one of every five people in the prosper-ous town of 1,300 would lose their lives, as the floodwaters pulled apart and carried away nearly everything in its path.

In this provocative and important book, renowned anthropologist W. Penn Handwerker shows that individual choices, from the fatal to the mundane, are fundamentally questions of culture – what it is, where it comes from, and the complex ways it changes and evolves. In accessible and engaging prose, he walks readers through the process of how the human imagination produces new things, shaped by culture and experience but also constantly evolving in unpredictable ways. He shows how understanding cultural dynamics, which explain one girl’s decision to murder and another girl’s decision to shop, will help us address critical policy questions, from reducing the likelihood of terrorist attacks to responding to global epidemics and addressing climate change.

Grossman, an acclaimed journalist who brought national attention to the contami-nants hidden in computers and other high-tech electronics, now explores the promise of materi-als that are “benign by design.“There’s no question chemicals can be put to ingenious use: making coats waterproof, pans nonstick, and mascara glide. But these wondrous materials can also cause cancer, interfere with reproduction, even make us fat. Green chemistry has the potential to end this trade-off.

But it doesn’t have to be like this. A new approach to economics – deriving as much from Ruskin and Schumacher as from Keynes or Smith – has begun to emerge. Skeptical about money as a measure of success, this new economics turns our assumptions about wealth and poverty upside down. It shows us that real wealth can be measured by increased well-being and environ-mental sustainability rather than just having and consuming more things.
