Description
Looking at how specific Canadian public policy fields are being increasingly affected by globalization and internationalization factors and processes, this book also examines how these factors and processes have varied across policy fields and why these variations have occurred. All policy fields in Canada, such as foreign policy, social policy, trade policy, and environmental policy, have been directly influenced by the overall forces of globalization. Globalization, in this sense, refers to the accelerated processes of economic production and investment choices combined with massive technological changes in computers and telecommunications. But there is also a more intermediate set of effects and processes between the policy fields and globalization: these are the internationalization factors and processes. These would include policy instruments, international agencies and sovereignty issues, as well as ideas and discourse.
