From the Boers to the Taliban : how Canadian attitudes towards war have changed / [by] Major Tod Strickland. : D4-9/3-2011
Argues that primarily because of changing demographics as well as a lack of consensus on their national interests and values, most Canadians do not believe in using war as a means to achieve their foreign policy objectives. To make this argument, the paper uses case studies of the Boer War and Canada’s current operations in Afghanistan to demonstrate how the societal and political context changed over time, even if military operations maintained distinct similarities. Following the case studies, the differences between the two situations are reviewed in detail.
