This book is a history of Canada's role in the world as well as the
impact of world events on Canada. Starting from the country's
quasi-independence from Britain in 1867, its analysis moves through
events in Canadian and global history to the present day. Looking
at Canada's international relations from the perspective of elite
actors and normal people alike, this study draws on original
research and the latest work on Canadian international and
transnational history to examine Canadians' involvement with a
diverse mix of issues, from trade and aid, to war and peace, to
human rights and migration. The book traces four inter-connected
themes: independence and growing estrangement from Britain; the
longstanding and ongoing tensions created by ever-closer relations
with the United States; the huge movement of people from around the
world into Canada; and the often overlooked but significant range
of Canadian contacts with the non-Western world. With an emphasis
on the reciprocal nature of Canada's involvement in world affairs,
ultimately it is the first work to blend international and
transnational approaches to the history of Canadian international
relations.
