Canada’s relationship with the United States and its place in the world often occupy two distinct spheres in the minds of policy-makers, scholars, and citizens. In North America, its “special" relationship with the United States is viewed as a partnership between friends, allies, and neighbours. On the international stage, its tolerant, pacifistic political culture translates to a role as global peacekeeper. This dualistic view of Canada’s international relations is deeply flawed. At Home and Abroad shows that how Canada engages with the world is shaped by how it relates to the United States. Patrick Lennox offers a fresh perspective on Canada-US relations by applying structural theory to six vital events in their shared history, including the Vietnam War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the War on Terror. Canada’s subordinate position in North America, he argues, has resulted in policies in the international arena that contravene the wishes of the United States. The war in Afghanistan is but the most recent instance in a long series of contradictory engagements with US foreign policy. This sophisticated and balanced look at Canada-US relations and Canadian foreign policy over the past fifty years will appeal to students, scholars, and practitioners of Canadian foreign and defence policy as well as anyone interested in understanding Canada’s place in the world. | At Home and Abroad by Patrick Lennox, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
