The Blueprint: Conservative Parties and their Impact on Canadian Politics

Description

In this collection, J.P. Lewis and Joanna Everitt bring together a group of up-and coming-political scientists in addition to senior scholars to explore the latest history of the Conservative Party of Canada, covering the pre-merger period (1993–2003) and both the minority and majority governments under Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

The contributors provide nuanced accounts in regards to the experience of conservatives in Canada which reflect the latest evolution of Canadian politics in both policy and practice. They challenge the idea that Harper’s government was once built upon traditional “toryism” and reveal the level to which the agenda of the CPC was once shaped by its roots to the Reform and Canadian Alliance Parties. Organized thematically, the amount delves into such topics as interest advocacy, ethno-cultural minorities, gender, the media, foreign policy, and more. The Blueprint showcases the renewed vigour in political studies in Canada whilst revealing the contradictory story of the brand new Conservative Party.
