Canadian Parties in Transition, Fifth Edition

""Canadian Parties in Transition provides a comprehensive set of chapters that cover a range of subjects, from parties and the party system to the way parties campaign and represent important groups in society. This strong update nicely addresses the issues and changes in trends that have occurred since the publication of the last edition. There isn't another textbook that leverages as many authors to cover such a wide range of topics on Canadian parties and elections.""--Daniel Westlake, University of Saskatchewan ""Canadian Parties in Transition remains a classic. It brings together works by many of Canada's pre-eminent students of parties, elections, and representation, and addresses questions of fundamental importance to our understanding of electoral reform, social movements, party organization, and political communication in the twenty-first century. Students of Canadian politics will be well served by this collection of informative papers.""--John Courtney, University of Saskatchewan ""For more than thirty years, Canadian Parties in Transition has been an indispensable tool for teaching and research about Canadian political parties. Blending insights from established and up-and-coming scholars, this collection offers both comprehensive field coverage and innovative interpretations of emerging trends. All students of Canadian parties will welcome the conceptual clarity and up-to-date analysis presented in each of the chapters.""--Neil Bradford, Huron University College
