Book Canada in a Changing World Economy

Download or read book Canada in a Changing World Economy written by Harry G. Johnson and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1962-12-15 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The echoes of Laurier's remarks about Canada and the twentieth century are taking a long time to fade away. It is one of the purposes of Professor Johnson's Alan B. Plaunt Lectures (given at Carleton University in 1962) to silence them, for they can prove dangerous and misleading—like a siren song—in the formulation of Canadian economic policy at this time. The success of the Common Market, Britain's request for membership. President Kennedy's desire for tariff flexibility and reductions in the United States, and the recent stagnation in the North American economy (accentuated in Canada by an emphasis on monetary stability)—these are signs of change in the economic climate of the world. The requisite adaptations are the most important problem facing those who govern the economic life of this country, and they must be faced realistically to ensure Canada's continuing economic growth. Professor Johnson analyses his subject with his customary authoritative skill and lucidity. Written in non-technical language, this book presents an ideal summary of the contemporary economic world as it affects Canada.

Book Relocating Middle Powers

Download or read book Relocating Middle Powers written by Andrew F. Cooper and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fall of the Berlin Wall and the disintegration of the Soviet Union were only two of the many events that profoundly altered the international political system in the late 1980s and early 1990s. In a world no longer dominated by Cold War tensions, nation states have had to rethink their international roles and focus on economic rather than military concerns. This book examines how two middle powers, Australia and Canada, are grappling with the difficult process of relocating themselves in the rapidly changing international economy. The authors argue that the concept of middle power has continuing relevance in contemporary international relations theory, and they present a number of case studies to illustrate the changing nature of middle power behaviour.

Book Canada and the Global Economy

Download or read book Canada and the Global Economy written by John N. H. Britton and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1996 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of essays by twenty-three of Canada's leading economic geographers, Canada and the Global Economy is a comprehensive study of the evolving economic and geographic patterns of Canadian development. It provides a benchmark for research on the spatial development of the Canadian economy. The contributors explore four central themes: the locational impacts of the openness of the Canadian economy, Canada's relatively simple economic geography in terms of regional variations in resources and urban development, the problems of keeping pace with rapid advances in technology, and the role of government in maintaining a national market and assisting economic development. They outline the essential elements of Canada's contemporary economic geography and highlight the origins and spatial imprint of change in the Canadian economy; in particular they provide an assessment of Canada's participation in significant international patterns of economic change. Canada and the Global Economy is concerned not only with the economic size and location of consumption and production but also with institutional changes and shifts in employment, the sectoral composition of economic activity, and the organizational structure and locational behaviour of particular industries and firms. Special attention is given to the technological development of both established industries and new service and manufacturing activities. A timely addition to the field, it provides a geographic perspective on significant changes in jobs and types of work that result from the transformation of economic activities.

  • Release : 2014-08-01
  • ISBN : 0773596224
  • Pages : 218 pages

Download or read book Brave New Canada written by Derek H. Burney and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization and the shifting tectonic plates of the international system have led to an increasingly competitive world. If Canada hopes to gain advantage from the dramatic developments underway it will have to aggressively adapt its foreign and domestic policies and priorities under the clear direction of the federal government or accept being left behind. In Brave New Canada, Derek Burney and Fen Hampson identify the key trends that are reshaping the world's geopolitics and economics and discuss the challenges Canada confronts with the rise of China and other global centres of power. Their examination of a wide range of themes - including the place of pluralistic democratic values in diplomacy, economics, and trade, the ways that Canada should reset relations with its neighbour to the south, as well as how to manage new global security threats - paints a picture of how Canada can become bold, assertive, and confident and easily adjust to a new global landscape. Arguing that a successful foreign policy cannot be crafted by looking at the world in the rear-view mirror, Brave New Canada offers evidence-based, provocative prescriptions for both the public and private sectors that should stimulate discussion and command widespread attention.

Book Canada in the World Economy

Download or read book Canada in the World Economy written by John A. Stovel and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1959 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his study of Canada, John A. Stovel examines the changes in that country's balance of payments and balance of trade from confederation to the present day, including as part of his examination historical, statistical, and theoretical points of view. The author also reexamines critically--and finds himself in sharp disagreement with--Jacob Viner's classic in the field, Canada's Balance of International Indebtedness, 1900-1913, which has long been considered the definitive analysis of the subject. Developing in Part I an eclectic theory of international balance of payments, and in Part II concentrating on the Canadian balance of trade and balance of payments in relation to economic developments preceding World War I, Stovel carefully prepares the foundation for a critique of Viner's analysis of the period 1900-1913. Discussing the inadequacy of the Mill-Taussig theory and its empirical verification, and observing the extent to which the newer theoretical developments have afforded increased understanding, Stovel criticizes Viner's statistics and the use to which they were put. He delineates with telling clarity the mutual interaction of many elements in cyclical growth development, as opposed to the oversimplified and inadequate causal links of the earlier theory. In addition to the wealth of analysis of the earlier period, the author investigates the interwar period, with the postwar boom and the depression of the thirties, presenting a careful analysis of the structural changes in the balance of payments during this period as well as indicating the change in Canada's relation to the United States and Great Britain. The concluding section of the book deals with the period following World War II, and the author indicates the possible lessons to be learned from Canada's experiences and the improvements in government policy that have taken place, especially with respect to exchange rates.
