{"product_id":"middle-power-in-the-middle-thomas-juneau-9781487528454","title":"Middle Power in the Middle East: Canada's Foreign and Defence Policies in a Changing Region","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Middle East has not, historically, been a first-order priority for Canadian foreign and defence policy. Most major Canadian decisions on the Middle East have come about through ad hoc decision-making rather than strategic necessity. Balancing international obligations with domestic goals, Canadian relations with this region try to find a balance between meeting alliance obligations and keeping domestic constituents content.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003eMiddle Power in the Middle East delves into some of Canada's key bilateral relations with the Middle East and explores the main themes in Canada's regional presence: arms sales, human rights, defence capacity-building, and mediation. Contributors analyse the key drivers of Canada's foreign and defence policies in the Middle East, including diplomatic relations with the United States, ideology, and domestic politics. Bringing together many of Canada's foremost experts on Canada-Middle East relations, this collection provides a fresh perspective that is particularly timely and important following the Arab uprisings. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Juneau\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1487528450\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487528454\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 278\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Thomas Juneau","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054292988159,"sku":"9781487528454","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ad20dd96-5374-4ed2-9ec2-c8c8017177bd.jpg?v=1685029111","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/middle-power-in-the-middle-thomas-juneau-9781487528454","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
