This greater measure of humane internationalism is a product of the combined influence of a wide range of factors that includes religious, political, economic, and diplomatic traditions. But Cranford Pratt cautions against exaggerating the internationalist thrust of the North\/South policies, particularly in the case of Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this volume a number of senior scholars offer interpretive essays on the North\/South policies of these four middle powers. The contributors have all worked extensively on these issues; they are neither naively optimistic nor fatigued and despondent about what has been accomplished or what lies ahead. The concluding chapter is a comparative study of the role of humane internationalism in the policies of these four countries and a prognosis of the influence which a humane middle-power internationalism may yet have on Northern responses to the challenge of global poverty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edited by Cranford Pratt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43575529275574,"sku":"9781487580933","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/4980\/0541\/files\/9781487580933.jpg?v=1727459552","url":"https:\/\/combined-academic.myshopify.com\/products\/internationalism-under-strain","provider":"Combined Academic Publishers - Mare Nostrum Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
