This collection brings together a wide range of authoritative,informed perspectives on issues of ethics and security facing Canadiansin the turbulent global environment of the twenty-first century. Thesereflections, by some of the leading scholars in the field, link theabstract analytical and philosophical questions of "ethics"to the critical and challenging questions of decision-making practicein Canadian foreign policy. Contributors to this volume deal with both the abstract notions ofvalue, culture, norms, and ethics, and the concrete questions ofpolicy, law, and enforcement. They assess the challenges and theopportunities presented by new concepts, such as human security, mutualvulnerability, soft power, global cultural scripts, "goodgovernance," and niche diplomacy, for foreign policy decisionmaking. The addition of suggested seminar questions, a list of furtherreadings, and a sample course outline add to the usefulness of thistext in a practical classroom setting.
