About the Book
On September 30, the book Chretien and the World: Canadian Foreign Policy, from 1993 to 2003, edited by Graham Centre Program Coordinator Jack Cunningham and Director John Meehan, was formally launched. The launch was at the Aga Khan Museum, as part of the 2025 Canadian International Council / Couchiching Conference, and featured remarks by the editors and a conversation between M. Chretien and his onetime aide Peter Donolo, followed by sales of copies signed by M. Chretien, who received the first copy of the book off the press.
The book is the product of two online workshops and a live conference in September of 2022 featuring papers by scholars as well as participants in Canadian foreign policy during the Chretien era, with M. Chretien himself appearing at the conference dinner. It is the first book-length assessment of Chretien's foreign policy, and features chapters by scholars as well as reflections by former ministers and diplomats. It is part of the C.D. Howe Series in Political History, edited by Professors Robert Bothwell and John English, and is published by the University of British Columbia Press.
