"Socialism as Nationalism: Why the Alleged Americanization
of Canadian Political Culture is a Graud." This chapter, originally
published in 1998, has been revised and will be re-published in
the 4th edition of Crosscurrents: Contemporary Political Issues,
edited by Mark Charlton and Paul Barker (Nelson Canada)
Affirmative Action and Representation,
edited by Anthony Peacock
"Anthony Peacock, a Canadian legal scholar visiting as a professor
of government at Claremont McKenna College, has drawn together a
significant collection of short works from the disciplines of law
and political science which addresses this complex and controversial
issue (the Voting Rights Act) and suggests a few less prickly paths
out of the brambles. Accordingly the book would be ideal as supplemental
reading in law courses such as Constitutional Law and in a variety
of political science courses at the undergraduate and graduate level,
including: the American Political Process, the Legislative Process,
Urban Politics, and Constitutional Law/Politics." -Stanley
A. Halpin, Southern University Law Center
Rethinking the Constitution, edited
by Anthony Peacock
"The logic of this collection points us toward an admiration
for the U.S., but the creed of individual right in that country
has led not only to self-seeking and materialism, but to great unifying
and ennobling national crusades. Can Canada achieve something similar,
and is there a Tory vision, marrying our past to our present and
future, to oppose to the Liberals' rather bland success?" -Lloyd
W. Robertson, Ontario legislature
Beyond Politics by William C. Mitchell
and Randy T. Simmons
"Beyond Politics is a superb, thought-provoking and penetrating
book, analyzing the real, as opposed to the presumed, effects of
government regulation. If effectively turns the orthodox view that
government regulation 'corrects' private 'market failures' on its
head. The book deserves to be read by all serious students of public
policy." -Sam Peltzman, Professor Economics and Financial Services,
University of Chicago
"The Endangered Species Act: Who's
Saving What?"
by Randy Simmons
Proponents of the Endangered Species Act claim it saves species
but offer little evidence beyond the number of threatened or endangered
species listed each year, as if listing instead of delisting were
the real purpose of the law. In reality, the protection of species
at risk has been hampered by the ESA's perverse incentive and lack
of prioritization.
The Independent Review, Volume III, Number 3, Winter 1999
"Fixing the Endangered Species Act"
by Randy Simmons
Endangered species protection can be made effective – and
honest – only if we recognize eight truths ignored by the failing
Endangered Species Act. Among them: letting nature take its course
isn't the best way to protect biodiversity; and property owners
must be given an interest in protecting sensitive habitat.
The Independent Review, Volume III, Number 4, Spring 1999
The Normative Constitution edited
by Richard Sherlock, Kent Robson, Charles Johnson
"The Normative Constitution is an extraordinary set of thoughtful,
probing, and far-sighted essays that can help to guide and provoke
our thinking about the Constitution in its third century."
- Nathan Tracov, The University of Chicago
