Canada and the United States - Differences That Count, Fifth Edition (Hardcover, 5th Revised edition): Christopher Sands, David... Canada and the United States - Differences That Count, Fifth Edition (Hardcover, 5th Revised edition)
Christopher Sands, David Thomas
R2,952 Discovery Miles 29 520 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Canada and the United States explains, across fifteen diverse areas, why and how Canada and the United States are still so different. The book discusses whether or not these differences are growing, the key results of such differences, and the major challenges to be faced in each system. Focusing on institutions, political cultures, and social values, the book shows how both federal systems are extremely complex and how our institutions, cultures, and historical experiences often lead to very different outcomes. The fifth edition discusses the emergence of vital new issues, including the pandemic and its effects, climate change, energy requirements, vastly increasing international tensions, and new trade problems. This up-to-date edition discusses massive budgetary changes, an ongoing political crisis in the US with a former president convincing millions of his followers that the election was a hoax, and new forms of protest emerging in Canada. It includes discussion questions, data sources, and detailed endnotes for further reading. Written by leading scholars in their field, Canada and the United States reveals how two countries compare when dealing with similar problems that often spill across the border.

Forgotten Partnership Redux - Canada-U.S. Relations in the 21st Century (Hardcover, New): Greg Anderson, Christopher Sands Forgotten Partnership Redux - Canada-U.S. Relations in the 21st Century (Hardcover, New)
Greg Anderson, Christopher Sands
R3,655 Discovery Miles 36 550 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

In 1984, famous political scientist Charles Doran argued in his landmark book Forgotten Partnership that Canada-US relations were at a crossroads. Structural asymmetries, divergent interests, and both strategic and tactical missteps by Ottawa and Washington risked undermining the postwar comity and cooperation between the two countries. Back in 1984, Doran lamented the deterioration of "partnership" in Canada-U.S. relations. A major premise of this book is that Doran's analysis is worth revisiting in a contemporary setting. Following Doran's original analytical framework, Forgotten Partnership Redux is organized around the same three "dimensions" of Canada-U.S. relations-political-strategic, trade-commercial, and psychocultural. The foremost authorities have been selected to contribute to this volume for their specific areas of expertise, with the aim of revisiting these specific dimensions in a contemporary setting. What sets Forgotten Partnership Redux apart is how the world's leading experts on Canada-U.S. relations revisit Doran's Forgotten Partnership, one of the most important works ever produced in the field. Their insights augment the scholarly debate initiated over two decades ago and cast significant light on the present and the future of the two nations and their global impact. For those who have not read Forgotten Partnership, this volume will serve as an important introduction to many of the same themes, but set in contemporary scholarly and policy debates.

Canada-US Relations - Sovereignty or Shared Institutions? (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2019): David Carment, Christopher Sands Canada-US Relations - Sovereignty or Shared Institutions? (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2019)

This book, the 32nd volume in the Canada Among Nations series, looks to the wide array of foreign policy challenges, choices and priorities that Canada confronts in relations with the US where the line between international and domestic affairs is increasingly blurred. In the context of the Canada-US relationship, this blurring is manifest as a cooperative effort by officials to manage aspects of the relationship in which bilateral institutional cooperation goes on largely unnoticed. Chapters in this volume focus on longstanding issues reflecting some degree of Canada-US coordination, if not integration, such as trade, the environment and energy. Other chapters focus on emerging issues such as drug policies, energy, corruption and immigration within the context of these institutional arrangements.

Christian Ix and Queen Louise - Europe'S Parents-in-Law (Hardcover, 2nd ed.): Jens Gunni Busck Christian Ix and Queen Louise - Europe'S Parents-in-Law (Hardcover, 2nd ed.)
Jens Gunni Busck; Edited by Birgit Jenvold; Christopher Sand-Iversen
R383 Discovery Miles 3 830 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Christian IX and Queen Louise were the first couple of the Glucksburg line on the Danish throne. They had a difficult beginning, as they ascended the throne in 1863, immediately prior to the military defeat by Prussia and Austria in 1864. However, they eventually became popular with the Danish people, not least because they secured such advantageous marriages for their six children that already in their own day they were known as "Europe's parents-in-law". Today there are not many European royals who are not descendants of Christian IX and Queen Louise, who died in 1906 and 1898 respectively. This book is part of the Crown Series, a series of small books on the Danish monarchy and related subjects published in cooperation with the Royal Danish Collection.

Frederik Ix and Queen Ingrid - The Modern Royal Couple (Hardcover, 2nd ed.): Jens Gunni Busck Frederik Ix and Queen Ingrid - The Modern Royal Couple (Hardcover, 2nd ed.)
Jens Gunni Busck; Edited by Birgit Jenvold; Christopher Sand-Iversen
R454 Discovery Miles 4 540 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid were the Danish royal couple from 1947 until 1972, when King Frederik died and was succeeded by his eldest daughter, Queen Margrethe II. In contrast to his predecessors, Frederik IX was seen as a man of the people, and thanks to the influence of Queen Ingrid he endowed his reign with kingly dignity. Together they modernized the Danish monarchy and came to symbolize an exemplary modern Danish nuclear family. They mastered the art of being both popular and royal in a time in which handling of the media became increasingly important for the monarchy.

Christian X and Queen Alexandrine were Denmark's royal couple from 1912 to 1947. They reigned during a period in which the world was dramatically changed; two world wars and serious economic crises left their mark on their reign and contributed to the royal couple's great significance as a centre around which the nation could gather. During the same period, the role of the monarchy was fundamentally changed; the Danish monarchy found its place in a modern parliamentary democracy, and following the advent of modern mass media the royal couple became a public presence.
