Interests of State: The Politics of Language, Multiculturalism, and Feminism in Canada

Research output: Book/ReportBookpeer-review

Abstract

Leslie Pal explores a phenomenon unique to Canadian politics - the direct funding of advocacy groups by the government - and makes a significant contribution to the debate on the role of the state in shaping society. Focusing on groups concerned with the official languages, multiculturalism, and women's issues, he argues that funding was not neutral but was driven by state interests, and particularly by a national unity agenda.
