The Twitter Conference as a New Medium of Scholarly Communication (and How to Host One)
The COVID-19 pandemic prompted a shift to online academic meetings such as the webinar and virtual conference. We add to the conversation about how these modes of knowledge mobilization may be more inclusive, accessible, and environmentally friendly than in-person conferences through a discussion of the Twitter conference—during which participants produce threaded tweets of their research and engage in both real-time and asynchronous scholarly di…
Heroism and Global Politics
Heroism and the construction of political community
This chapter is an in-depth exploration of the significance of heroism and heroes in creating, maintaining, and challenging political communities, including but not limited to the state. Drawing on the literature on state-building, political community, and leadership, the chapter argues that this relationship is iterative and bidirectional rather than uni-causal; while political community may be a by-product of the process of creating heroes, or …

Paradiplomatic policing and relocating Canadian foreign policy
Even though they claim to recognize that the boundaries between domestic and international security have eroded, scholars of Canadian paradiplomacy have tended to ignore the security-oriented paradiplomatic activities undertaken by sub-national actors in Canada. However, policing paradiplomacy is, in our view, a perfect case for understanding how paradiplomacy in security can change the relationship between the state and its citizens. Through an …
Privatizing Security, Securitizing Policing: The Case of the G20 in Toronto, Canada
Allegations of police brutality, unlawful detention, and other breaches of civil liberties during the G20 in Toronto in June 2010 provide an important case through which to understand the changing nature of security and policing, raising questions about the political implications of such shifts in terms of police accountability, transparency, and democracy. Within the field of public policing, scholars predicted that globalization processes would…
The Globalization of Nato: Intervention, Security and Identity
This book examines NATO’s transition from a Cold War mutual defence organization into a global alliance, and puts the recent crisis over the Afghanistan mission in the context of long-standing debates over out-of-area interventions. Originally, NATO bound the western allies together for the purposes of mutual defence as defined by Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which declared that an attack on the territory of one ally was to be consider…

Argument and Identity Change in the Atlantic Security Community
The Atlantic community shares more than just dependable expectations of peaceful change. Its members also share a reflexive political community they sense is worth preserving and a view that their security is intertwined. Existing accounts of the Atlantic security community have identified the importance of renewed emphasis on common values as a factor in preserving and expanding the security community after the Cold War. But, debates at the end …
Canada (En)Counters Terrorism: U.S.-Canada Relations and Counter-terrorism Policy
This paper examines the role of identity in shaping counter-terrorism policy in Canada. We show that identity functions in three ways: constitutively by defining the range of choices a state is likely to consider; strategically by being a resource to buttress arguments based in economic or sovereignty interests; and heuristically by using identity as a marker for risk. This three-faceted explanation helps explain why, despite close economic, soci…
Canada, Germany, Canada-Germany: Relations in the Third Dimension
This special edition of International Journal is presented in honour of Robert Spencer who, for a quarter of a century, was a professor at the University of Toronto. It is devoted to a wide-ranging discussion of Germany, Canada, and Canada-Germany relations, topics that were central to Spencer's scholarly work. This is also a very timely issue for two reasons: first, was president of both the EU and G 8 in 2007 and several contributors discuss wh…
Partners across the Atlantic: Canada, Germany, and the EU
As the transatlantic relationship moves further away from the Cold War context that defined it for many years, it also becomes, by definition, less of an exclusive relationship. The common interests of Canada, Germany, and the other transatlantic partners are shared by other states around the world. The values and common identity that were always said to define the Atlantic community have become at once more exclusive (the European Union) and les…
