Uneasy partnership the politics of business and government in Canada

"Uneasy partnership unravels the mutually dependent relationship between business and government in Canada. Geoffrey Hale begins examining this relationship by considering the influence of political, economic, and societal ideas on the government's place in the economy along with the history of Canadian economic development. He continues by examining the effects of political and economic structures on the workings of the economy and on relations between business and governments. Finally, Hale discusses the interaction of the political marketplace - including organized business interests and individual businesses - with the policy process, including the influence of interest group politics on public opinion, the role of the courts and tribunals on law and policy, and political parties."--Jacket.
