In Canadian Political Economy, experts from a number of disciplinary backgrounds come together to explore Canada’s empirical political economy and the field's contributions to theory and debate.

Book Description
From the Foreword: The unstable performance of the Canadian economy in the 1970s and the emergence of apparent problem areas of a persistent nature have led to widespread concern over Canada's economic future. Whether or not these problems are due to structural changes or cyclical phenomena is difficult to determine at the present time because of the amplitude of the recent business cycle and the occurrence of unusual events in the international economy....The present study is designed to review economic developments in Canada in recent years and in the process disentangle cyclical from structural changes.

Pages : 409
Book Description
In Understanding the Social Economy, Jack Quarter, Laurie Mook, and Ann Armstrong integrate a wide array of organizations founded upon a social mission - social enterprises, nonprofits, co-operatives, credit unions, and community development associations - under the rubric of the 'social economy.' This framework facilitates a comprehensive study of Canada's social sector, an area often neglected in the business curricula despite the important role that these organizations play in Canada's economy. Invaluable for business programs that address issues such as community economic development, co-operatives, and nonprofit studies and management, Understanding the Social Economy presents a unique set of case studies as well as chapters on organizational design and governance, social finance and social accounting, and accountability. The examples provide much needed context for students and allow for an original and in-depth examination of the relationships between Canada's social infrastructure and the public and private sectors. With this work, Quarter, Mook, and Armstrong illuminate a neglected facet of business studies to further our understanding of the Canadian economy.
