Laxer explores the policy vacuum that resulted in Canadian troopsbeing sent to fight a war that would last longer than any previous Canadian allied engagement.With passion and perspicacity he details the motives underlying the invasion and occupationof Afghanistan, outlines the recent history of that troubled nation, and challenges the assumptionthat infringement of human rights is sufficient justification for Canada's involvement.Laxer's familiarity with U.S. and Canadian global policy provides the backdrop for a concisestudy that will be of interest to a broad readership. JAMES LAXER is a Professor of Political Science at York University in Toronto. An award-winning author and a former Toronto Star columnist, Laxer is the author of twenty-one books, including "Perils of Empire" and "Red Diaper Baby: A Boyhood in the Age of McCarthyism."
