This co-operative venture by thirty-eight leading Canadian lawyers,
jurists, and scholars is the first published survey on a major
scale to cover nearly all aspects of Canadian relations with
international organization. In recent years active Canadian
involvement in controversies exercising major intergovernmental
organizations and raising complex questions of international law
has burgeoned to the point that Canada's role often far exceeds
what might normally be expected of a middle power with a limited
population. In some cases Canada has taken a leading part
comparable to the major powers. This Canadian activity, variously
applauded as creative or rejected as dangerous, is reviewed and
assessed in these pages. More than a factual recitation of events,
this volume attempts to explain why the Candian approach developed
as it did and what factors, or patterns, are exerting perceivable
influences on the prsent shaping of policy. Unusual in the vast
scopt of the subject matter, the work covers such topics as: the
constitution and functioning of international organizations; this
relations of individuals and corporations with states other than
those of which they are nationals; multinational corporations;
control of the extraterritorial activities of individuals and
corporations; pollution of the air, the fresh waters, and the
ocean; the sea bed, the continental shelf, and the conservation of
the fisheries. This volume is impressive recognition of the work
done by Canadian lawyers in contributing during recent years to
questions of jurisprudence among the nations of the world.
