Summary
In this memoir, the long-time Winnipeg MP makes the case for what he calls "soft power" - a mix of foreign aid, multilateral diplomacy, and simple persuasion to achieve change in war-torn areas - and a foreign policy based on… human security rather than the might of armies. He chronicles his efforts pursuing this agenda, including his work on the 1999 land-mine treaty, and also critically appraises the Bush administration's war on terror. He promotes his argument about Canada's vocation as a middle power - one which must work towards a humane and just world. 2003.
