Description:
"Drawing from newly released archival sources, Dimitry Anastakis demonstrates that, for Canada's automotive policymakers, continentalism was a form of economic nationalism. Although the auto pact represented the end of any notion of an indigenous Canadian automotive industry, significant economic gains were achieved for Canadians under the agreement. Anastakis provides a fresh and alternative view of the auto pact that places it firmly within contemporary debates about the nature of free trade as well as North American - and, indeed, global - integration. Far from being a mere artefact of history, the deal was a forebear of what is now known as globalization."--Jacket.
