This stronger alliance gave priority to negotiating an
internationally acceptable treaty and safeguarding Canada's
land-based nickel industry. A second coalition - officers from the
Department of Finance, the Department of Industry, Trade, and
Commerce, and the Ministry of State for Science and Technology -
contended that the push for quantitive restrictions diverted
attention from the more crucial areas of protection of
technological and financial resources. Riddell-Dixon argues that
the dominant coalition succeeded because of ministerial support,
structural and functional advantages, and an effective choice of
tactics. Consequently they were able to manage other domestic
sources of foreign policy. Canada and the International Seabed
addresses several debates central to Canadian foreign policy,
including the relative importance of domestic determinants and
international constraints, the nature of intra-governmental
decision-making, the relationship between government
decision-makers and interest groups, the role of provincial
governments in foreign policy, and the role of international
conferences in solving global problems.
