Description

Historians, veterans, museums, and public education campaigns have all documented and commemorated the enjoy of Canadians in times of war. But Canada also has a long, wealthy, and essential historical tradition of resistance to both war and militarization. This collection brings In combination the work of sixteen scholars at the history of war resistance. In combination they explore resistance to precise wars (including the South African War, the First and Second World Wars, and Vietnam), the ideology and nature of resistance (national, ethical, political, religious), and organized activism against militarization (such as cadet training, the Cold War, and nuclear arms).

As the government continues to enhance the commemoration and birthday celebration of Canada?s participation in past wars, this collection offers a timely response that explores the complexity of Canada?s position in times of war and the role of social movements in challenging the militarization of Canadian society.
