About the Event
Dear Heidi,
Historical, social, political, economic, security, environmental, and cultural explanations specific to North America have dominated the discourse explaining why Canada and the U.S.
developed such close ties. A lot of emphasis has been placed on domestic factors as the overriding or exclusive variables underpinning the relationship, but one element that has largely
been absent in our understanding of Canada-U.S. engagement is the prevailing distribution of power in the international political system.
This presentation maintains that the number of great powers - and who they are - is arguably the most crucial element in shaping and influencing the direction of relations between the
two nations.
