Synopsis

The Canadian Environment in Political Context offers an accessible introduction to environmental politics for undergraduate readers. The third edition features new chapters on environmentalism, climate governance, biodiversity, and oceans, while also integrating key topics such as political economy and environmental justice into the existing twelve-chapter structure. The book begins with an overview of environmental quality across Canada and then examines the political institutions and policymaking processes that shape the country’s environmental landscape. It traces the history of environmentalism in Canada and explores critical contemporary issues, including Indigenous perspectives, environmental justice, and the unique challenges facing the North. Enhanced with case studies, key terms, and a comprehensive glossary, this new edition provides a thorough foundation for understanding the major environmental challenges of the twenty-first century.
