Comments
In this class, we will analyze the role of the Canadian Provinces and Territories in Canadian Politics. After a brief overview of Canada’s political system and a part highlighting the differences of Canadian Federalism vis-à-vis other federal systems such as the US and Germany our main focus will be on the policy fields which are exclusively or significantly governed by the Provinces. The course will therefore feature case studies to highlight particular aspects of Canada’s policies on education, natural resources, migration and economic development. The latter includes the growing presence of Canadian Provinces in the country’s trade policy, mostly in the form of international offices (often co-located in Canadian embassies or consulates).
Since this course will also be offered as part of the “Praxismodul” in the BA program “Applied North American Studies”, students will write a (fictitious) trade development strategy for a Canadian Province of their choice. We will also have a session with a representative of the Québec delegation based in Germany.
