The book first examines the evolution of North America from a zone of war to a zone of peace, starting with the debate over the nature and meaning of the Canada-US border. It then assesses the role of ethnic diasporas in North American security, exploring whether ethnic interest groups have been gaining influence over the shaping of U.S. foreign policy. This debate is also valid in Canada, especially given the practice of federal political parties of cateringNational securityUnited StatesNational securityCanadaIrish AmericansPolitics and governmentGerman AmericansPolitics and governmentMuslimsPolitical activityUnited StatesMuslimsPolitical activityCanadaUnited StatesForeign relationsCanadaCanadaForeign relationsUnited StatesNational securityNational securityIrish AmericansPolitics and government.German AmericansPolitics and government.MuslimsPolitical activityMuslimsPolitical activity327.73071Haglund David G.835465MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797186403321Ethnic diasporas and the Canada-United States security community3695092UNINA
