Description
The 9/11 tragedy. The War on Terror. The attack on Iraq. World affairs are tangled and uncertain. If Canada is to move forward, we have to make choices that acknowledge a global future.
At Home in the World delivers an intelligent and innovative plan of action to bolster our diminishing international status and build a renewed and self-confident Canada. Through unabashed critical analysis, Welsh gives us a provocative and well-reasoned book, demonstrating that she is one of this country’s brilliant young thinkers.
