The Paradox of Parliament provides a comprehensive analysis of all
aspects of Parliament in order to explain the paradoxical
expectations placed on the institution. The book argues that
Parliament labours under two different "logics" of its purpose and
primary role: one based on governance and decision-making and one
based on representation and voice. This produces a paradox that is
common to many legislatures, but Canada and Canadians particularly
struggle to recognize and reconcile the competing logics. In The
Paradox of Parliament, Jonathan Malloy discusses the major aspects
of Parliament through the lens of these two competing logics to
explain the ongoing dissatisfaction with Parliament and perennial
calls for parliamentary reform. It focuses on overarching
analytical themes rather than exhaustive description. It centres
people over procedure and theory, with strong emphasis given to
dimensions of gender, race, and additional forms of diversity.
Arguing for a holistic and realistic understanding of Parliament
that recognizes and accepts that Parliament evolves and adapts, The
Paradox of Parliament puts forward an important and novel
interpretation of the many facets of Parliament in Canada.
