| Book Description | When the field of Canadian history underwent major shifts in the 1990s, international history became marginalized and the focus turned away from foreign affairs. Over the past decade, however, the study of Canada and the world has been revitalized. Undiplomatic History charts these changes, bringing together leading and emerging historians of Canadian international and transnational relations to take stock of recent developments and to outline the course of future research. Following global trends in the wider historiography, contributors explore new lenses of historical analysis - such as race, gender, political economy, identity, religion, and the environment - and emphasize the relevance of non-state actors, including scientists, athletes, students, and activists. The essays in this volume challenge old ways of thinking and showcase how an exciting new generation of historians are asking novel questions about Canadians' interactions with people and places beyond the country's borders. From human rights to the environment, and from medical internationalism to transnational feminism, Undiplomatic History maps out a path toward a vibrant and inclusive understanding of what constitutes Canadian foreign policy in an age of global connectivity. |
| Editorial Review | The field has been influenced by borderlands studies and Indigenous studies, which encourage scholars to rethink the artificiality of boundary lines and consider what happens when you contextualize treaties between European nations and Indigenous peoples as international relations. By doing so, McKercher and Van Huizen demonstrate how the new features of the field complicate the history of how Canada and Canadians have interacted with the world. H-Net |
