Letters to a Qubcois Friend
ISBN: 9780773507722 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Resnick, a leading Canadian nationalist, argues that English-Canadian attitudes toward Quebec have changed fundamentally since the November 1988 election. Quebec has become too selfish, he says, and English Canada feels betrayed by Quebec's refusal either to recognize or take seriously the desires of the rest of the country. He suggests that Quebec reconsider the social values it once supported, values which are in opposition to the market-oriented Canada-US Free Trade Agreement. Resnick argues that this agreement will only weaken the Canadian state, as would the Meech Lake Accord. Canada's...

Toward a Canada-Quebec Union
ISBN: 9780773508651 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. At a time when Canada's constitutional arrangement is in utter turmoil, Philip Resnick has come up with a bold and brilliant proposal for a new configuration of Canada's two founding nations. Going beyond the political and social insights of Letters to a Quebecois Friend (Resnick and Latouche: McGill-Queen's University Press, 1990), Resnick is no longer simply observing the English-Canadian/Quebecois situation and appealing to reason: he is attempting to lay the foundations for a Canada that will, at last, work.

The Politics of Resentment: British Columbia Regionalism and Canadian Unity
ISBN: 9780774808057 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Philip Resnick examines the role of British Columbia in the Canadian unity debate and explores what makes it stand apart as a region. He looks at the views of politicians, opinion-makers, and ordinary British Columbians on the challenges posed by Quebec nationalism, their sense of estrangement from central Canada, and what they see as the future of Canadian unity. He provides a provocative new way of thinking about British Columbia's place within the federation, and his wide range of sources - government documents, media, and academic literature on regionalism and nationalism - capture what...

ISBN: 9780773516595 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Topics in this collection of essays range from a utopian-style foray into possible structures for democratic governance at the global level to a Hobbesian analysis of the ongoing challenges that democratic theory faces; from an assertion of the importance of social and economic equality to a recognition of the limits of solidarity in the real world of pluralistic and divided societies in which we live; from identification with the cosmopolitan and the international to a defence of the national and the local; from a predilection for direct democracy and the lost community of republican theory,...

The Labyrinth of North American Identities
ISBN: 9781442605527 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What exactly does it mean to be North American? Europeans have been engaged in a long-running debate about the meaning and nature of Europe. The Labyrinth of North American Identities generates a similar discussion in the context of North America: what do we learn about North America as a unit and its individual countries when we explore the idea of a shared North American identity? Combining cultural, anthropological, historical, political, economic, and religious considerations, Philip Resnick acknowledges the relative differences in power and influence of the United States and...

The Innovative University
ISBN: 9780887483769 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. How can a small university like Carnegie Mellon have such a big impact on the world? Ironically, being small is a key reason the university is so prolific. An intimate environment, coupled with an extraordinary ratio of world-class thinkers, has produced a culture of collaboration that may be unmatched elsewhere in higher education. How that culture emerged is now chronicled in a series of essays by Carnegie Mellon faculty, including the late Nobel Prize-winner Herb Simon, the "father of artificial intelligence." Find out what caused Carnegie Mellon's meteoric rise from its trade school...

The European Roots of Canadian Identity
ISBN: 9781551117058 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What makes Canada a different kind of society from the United States? In this book-length essay, Philip Resnick argues that, in more ways than one, Canada has been profoundly marked by its European origins. This is most apparent where the European historical underpinnings both of English-speaking and French-speaking Canada are concerned, but it is no less true when one examines Canada's multiple national identities, robust social programs, increasingly secular values and multilateral outlook on international affairs today. As the war in Iraq brought home, and the 2004 federal election...
