Canadian Foreign Policy Journal Examining America First and the New Nationalism
杏吧原创 University鈥檚 David Carment, Canadian Global Affairs Institute (CGAI) Fellow, professor at the (NPSIA) and editor of the (CFPJ), has released the newest issue of CFPJ focusing on 鈥淎merica first鈥 and the new nationalism.
This issue, guest edited by Prof. James McCormick of Iowa State University and Ottawa-based international affairs analyst Gerald Schmitz, addresses how Canada鈥檚 global affairs have been affected by the Trump administration鈥檚 鈥淎merica first鈥 posture among nationalistic challenges to a liberal international order.
Articles by distinguished contributors, scholars and practitioners cover a range of issues. Rodger Payne examines the impact of the Trump agenda on the multilateral system and Western security community. Fr茅d茅rick Gagnon and Christophe Cloutier-Roy investigate that agenda鈥檚 impact on Canada-U.S. relations from a regional perspective. Andrea Charron and James Fergusson look specifically at Canada-U.S. politics and the NORAD agreement. Laura Macdonald delves into the NAFTA renegotiations and the effects on Canada-Mexico relations. Meredith Lilly analyses the implications of American and Chinese nationalism for future Canadian trade policy. Ben Rowswell, president of the Canadian International Council, explores how populist unilateralism confronts Canada鈥檚 role in the world.
鈥淭he purpose of this special issue is to deepen understanding of how U.S. President Donald Trump鈥檚 鈥楢merica first鈥 agenda challenges Canada within the international system,鈥 said Schmitz. 鈥淚n an era of disruption, being up to that challenge demands creative thinking on how best to advance Canada鈥檚 international relations.鈥
Much of the initial work for this special issue was conducted by Fulbright Fellow McCormick who was resident at NPSIA in 2017 鈥淭he Canada-United States relationship remains crucial, and the challenges posed by the Trump administration require thoughtful analyses,鈥 said McCormick. .
Rounding out the issue are policy commentaries from noted experts. Nik Nanos looks at the impact of populist politics on Canada in light of the 2019 federal election. Michael Kergin, a former Canadian ambassador in Washington, examines the Trump effect on global politics, while Elizabeth Smythe offers another perspective on dealing with the Trump agenda. David Black addresses issues of global development co-operation, and Andrew Cohen points to where Canada鈥檚 aspirational role in the world falls short.
