Blake (history, U. of Regina, Canada) and Nurse (Canadian studies, Mount Allison U., Canada) present an interdisciplinary collection exploring varied issues of Canadian citizenship and nationalism. The 12 included essays discuss Michael Ignatieff's idea of "civic nationalism" as the guiding framework of Canadian nationalism, the legacies of the British Empire in Canadian nationalism, the vernacular and the ceremonial in planning Ottawa's symbolic spaces, citizenship education, the decline of citizen's rights in the new "flexible" economy, federalism and the politics of difference, perceptions of citizenship and identity among aboriginal people and second-generation immigrants in Québec, multiculturalism and rural areas, Croatians and Sri Lankan Tamils in Toronto and diasporan involvement in homeland conflict, and Canada's role in world affairs, among other topics.
