Beskrivning

Inspired by trailblazing work in the field, this wide-ranging collection makes an essential and timely intervention through new theoretical contributions that build on decades of critical analysis of the Canadian state as an agent active in capitalist development in a global era. The Canadian State explores the state’s distinctive role in the development of a political economy shaped by capitalism and settler colonialism. Paying critical attention to how the state exercises accumulation, legitimation, and coercion in unique ways, the book provides an essential guide to understanding the multidimensional character of Canada's contemporary state form. Leading contributors in their field provide cutting edge chapters on settler colonialism, land ownership, extractivism, energy, services, care work, democracy, finance, commercialization, employment, and trade and investment.

Recensioner i media

“Whiteside and McBride are among Canada’s leading experts on state-capital relations, and they have assembled an outstanding set of two generations of theorists and analysts of the Canadian state. The authors recognize the centrality of settler colonialism as a structural logic animating and shaping the state; chapters on today’s dominant sectors of Canadian capital shed light on the organization of the Canadian state today. The collection as a whole forms both a tour-de-force survey of existing recent literature and an important fount of contemporary political economic theory in its own right.”
