Description
Book SynopsisHow cultural and religious diplomacy influenced Canada-Mexico relations.
Trade Review"Connected Struggles makes a very significant and original contribution and represents a serious advance in state-of-the art research. Identity politics influenced the history of Canadian and Mexican diplomacy in the Americas - that is what is revealed and explained in this study, with all the implications this had for Canada's and Mexico's political contexts." Jean Meyer Barth, History Division, Centro de Investigacio n y Docencia Econo micas " Sheds light on a significant, but still little-studied, period of transition in Mexican politics. Demers does an admirable job of considering what his narrative tells us about both Mexico and Canada. A fascinating story about both the extent to which civil society and non-state actors can shape international relations and the limits of their influence." British Journal of Canadian Studies
