Breaking Barriers, Shaping Worlds: Canadian Women and the Search for Global Order
Editat de Jill Campbell-Miller, Greg Donaghy, Stacey Barkeren Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 2021
Though marginalized by historians, women have served at the center of Canadian international affairs. Breaking Barriers, Shaping Worlds highlights the overlooked contribution of a diverse group of women in Canadian political history—missionaries, diplomats, doctors, nurses, economists, anti-war, and Indigenous rights activists. This wide-ranging collection reveals the vital contribution of women to the search for a global order that has been a hallmark of Canada’s international history.

Recenzii
“This collection will prompt debate. It will prompt reflection. It will surely inspire future scholars to reframe Canadian international history around women and gender.”
“Emphasizing the importance of broad participative decision-making, of quiet compromises, and of local domestic work outside the elite world of official diplomats, Breaking Barriers, Shaping Worlds adds to an exciting transformation in our official understanding of foreign policy and what it can achieve.”
