ISBN: 9780889118638 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Arguably, political changes in Canada have been greater in the 1990s than in any other decade since Confederation, but do these changes signify a shift in Canadian political culture?

What does the future hold? The authors attempt to answer these questions through analyses of the federal party system, politics in the provinces and regions, and political dynamics in a number of issue areas,...

Canada: The State of the Federation 2002 : Reconsidering the Institutions of Canadian Federalism
ISBN: 9781553390091 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Beginning with an examination of the role of traditional institutions such as Parliament, Cabinet, the Supreme Court, and political parties, Canada: State of the Federation 2002 affirms the long-held belief that these bodies do not provide effective forums for interregional bargaining, creating a void that has been filled at least in part by executive federalism. Contributors conclude that the performance of traditional institutions, taken as a whole, has deteriorated over the last several decades, placing more pressure on the processes of executive federalism.

ISBN: 9780889117815 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 394 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The last twenty or so years have seen a different kind of state emerge in Canada and elsewhere. The questioning of Keynesian macroeconomic policy in light of crises in Western economies coupled with the rise of neo-conservative and neo-liberal politics (and the attendant rethinking of the modern state's regulatory and redistributive roles) has resulted in significant restructuring and retrenchment of the state in Canada, both federal and provincial. Similarly, Canadians' sense of citizenship has undergone significant changes that need to be explored. Canada: The State of the Federation 1998...
