Beskrivning
Over the past thirty-five years, Canada’s provinces and territories have undergone significant political changes. Abandoning mid-century Keynesian policies, governments of all political persuasions have turned to deregulation, tax reduction, and government downsizing as policy solutions for a wide range of social and economic issues. Transforming Provincial Politics is the first province-by-province analysis of politics and political economy in more than a decade, and the first to directly examine the turn to neoliberal policies at the provincial and territorial level.Featuring chapters written by experts in the politics of each province and territory, Transforming Provincial Politics examines how neoliberal policies have affected politics in each jurisdiction. A comprehensive and accessible analysis of the issues involved, this collection will be welcomed by scholars, instructors, and anyone interested in the state of provincial politics today.

‘This volume provides a valuable analysis of each province…. Each chapter provides a useful historical account of recent economic, social, and political change… Recommended for students of Canadian politics.’- P.N. Malcolmson (Choice Magazine - Vol 53:05:2015) ‘Readers of this book will learn a great deal about provincial politics over the past 35 years; their eyes will be opened to the "mystery" of territorial politics; they will obtain a fuller appreciation of the pervasiveness of neoliberalism at the provincial level.’- Rand Dyck (Labour/Le Travail vol 77 spring 2016) ‘Provincial specialists often have crowded bookshelves. Because good material is dispersed and rare, many titles grace my shelves "just in case." But this anthology arrives just in time – and I will work it hard for reference and teaching. - Jamie Lawson (BC Studies issue 192 Winter 2016/17) ‘Evans and Smith’s edited volume must be an obligatory read for Canadianists, foreign policy analysts, international relations actors, economists, political economists, political scientists, and policy analysts that want to understand how neoliberalism operates at the local level.’- Stefano Tijerina (American Review of Canadian Studies vol 46:04:2016)
