China’s G20 Leadership
Kirton offers a comprehensive, systematic examination of China’s G20 approach, diplomacy and influence since the G20’s start as a forum for finance ministers and central bankers in 1999. This comprehensive reference tool works its way through China’s elevation to the leaders’ level with summits from 2008-2014, to the prospects for its Antalya Summit in November 2014 and above all China’s first summit as host in Hangzhou in the autumn of 2016.

China's G20 Leadership
Guiding Global Order
John Kirton, Joseph Daniels and Andreas Freytag present a collection of papers which examine both the professional economic merits, and the underlying politics, of the hotly contested competing initiatives for strengthening the international financial system.

Canada as a Principal Power
Foreign Policy Decision-Making in the Trudeau Govenment
On 29 May 1968 Prime Minister Trudeau made the dramatic declaration that his government, if elected, intended, through a full-scale review of external relations, to give Canada a new foreign policy and a new role in the world.
