This collection brings together a wide range of authoritative, informed perspectives on issues of ethics and security facing Canadians in the turbulent global environment of the twenty-first century. These reflections, by some of the leading scholars in the field, link the abstract analytical and philosophical questions of "ethics" to the critical and challenging questions of decision-making practice in Canadian foreign policy.Contributors to this volume deal with both the abstract notions of value, culture, norms, and ethics, and the concrete questions of policy, law, and enforcement. They assess the challenges and the opportunities presented by new concepts, such as human security, mutual vulnerability, soft power, global cultural scripts, "good governance," and niche diplomacy, for foreign policy decision making. The addition of suggested seminar questions, a list of further readings, and a sample course outline add to the usefulness of this text in a practical classroom setting.

Since 9/11, the wars on terror, economic crises, climate change, and humanitarian emergencies have forced decision makers to institute new measures to maintain security. Foreign policy analysts tend to view these decisions as being divorced from ethics, but Unsettled Balance shows that arguments about rights, obligations, norms, and values have played a profound role in Canadian foreign policy and international relations since the 1990s.The contributors to this volume examine a range of topics – from funding for climate change adaptation to the militarization of humanitarian aid – to collectively explore three key questions. What is the meaning of "ethics" and "security," and how are they linked? To what extent have considerations of ethics and security changed in the twenty-first century? And what are the implications of a shifting historical context for Canada's international relations? Their conclusions are essential reading for anyone who wants to understand not only how Canada responds to global challenges but also why it responds the way it does.

Canadian Ecopolitics provides a comprehensive overview of the intersection between environmental issues and political processes in Canada. It explores key concepts, historical developments, and contemporary challenges in environmental governance, highlighting the diverse world views that shape ecopolitical discourse – from resource extractivism to deep ecology. Rosalind Warner, Peter Stoett, and Will Greaves analyse Canada’s role on the global stage as well as the challenges of multilevel governance of natural resources. The book traces the country’s ecopolitical history from pre-colonial times through confederation to modern environmental movements. The book emphasizes the critical relationship between environmental issues and political processes in governing vital resources such as energy, water, climate, oceans, and biodiversity, making this analysis both timely and essential. The authors explore the complex interactions among different levels of governance, Indigenous perspectives, and competing interests that influence Canadian environmental policy. With a critical focus on the challenges and opportunities within Canada’s environmental landscape, Canadian Ecopolitics offers valuable insights for students, policymakers, and engaged citizens aiming to understand and transform this crucial area of governance.
