This book is an analysis of the ever-evolving nexus of ethics, security, and international relations. Organized thematically, the chapters include theoretical and policy-relevant commentaries on Canadian nuclear policy, democratization, human rights, economic security and development, the environment, peacekeeping, and humanitarian intervention. Particular concepts - soft power, moral vision, good governance, middle powermanship, humane internationalism, and niche diplomacy - are examined with reference to their implications for Canadian foreign policymaking.
