Summary:
"An accessible and empirically rich introduction to
Canada
's engagements in the
world
since confederation, this introductory textbook charts a unique path by locating
Canada
's
colonial
foundations at the heart of the analysis.
Canada
in the
World
begins by arguing that the
colonial
relations with Indigenous peoples represent the first example of foreign policy, and demonstrates how these relations became a foundational and existential element of the new state. Colonialism -- the project to establish
settler
capitalism
in North America and the ideological assumption that Europeans were more advanced and thus deserved to conquer the Indigenous people -- says Shipley, lives at the very heart of
Canada
. Through a close examination of Canadian foreign policy, from crushing an Indigenous rebellion in El Salvador, 'peacekeeping' missions in the Congo and Somalia, and Cold War interventions in Vietnam and Indonesia, to Canadian participation in the War on Terror,
Canada
in the
World
finds that this
colonial
heart has dictated
Canada
's actions in the
world
since the beginning. Highlighting the continuities across more than 150 years of history, Shipley demonstrates that Canadian policy and behaviour in the
world
is deep-rooted, and argues that changing this requires rethinking the fundamental nature of
Canada
itself."--Publisher.
