Over the past thirty years, political scientist Alan Cairns has become recognized as perhaps the leading authority on the evolving Canadian constitution and its relationship to government actors (political leaders, the judiciary, the bureaucracy) and to ordinary citizens. In this third volumeof his essays, Cairns examines how Canada and Canadians have changed in recent years and why this change has been both traumatic and halting. As he writes in the Introduction, "In nearly every essay, the past is a brooding visitor, shaping the issues we confront, influencing the criteria andprocessess by which we respond, defining the communities that struggle for constitutional living space, or surviving as memories in the minds of the constitutional participants." And those participants have changed greatly in less than a generation from the eleven male political leaders of executivefederalism to include women, Aboriginals, the disabled, "third-force" ethnic Canadians, and yet others, such as gays and lesbians, who are knocking on the doors of the state for constitutional recognition. Divided into six parts - "The Past, Present, and Future of the Canadian State," "Where WeHave Come From," "The New Constitutional Culture," "Citizenship and the Constitution," "Constitutional Reform," and "The Constitutional Future" - the thirteen essays in Reconfigurations, while never veering too far away from the tremendous impact of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and of the tworecent failures at constitutional renewal (Meech Lake and Charlottetown), consider how constitutional change has affected and not affected the embedded state and its burgeoning bureaucracy, Aboriginal Canadians, third-force Canadians, and our political leaders. Also prominent in these extendeddiscussions is the inescapable fact of the English and French "founding peoples," and in the concluding chapter, written expecially for this volume, Cairns looks at Canada's constitutional future through the lens of the September, 1994, Quebec provincial election.

The introduction of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms in 1982 was accompanied by much fanfare and public debate. This book does not celebrate the Charter; rather it offers a critique by distinguished scholars of law and political science of its effect on democracy, judicial power, and the place of Quebec and Aboriginal peoples twenty-five years later. By employing diverse methodological approaches, contributors shift the focus of debate from the Charter’s appropriateness to its impact – for better or worse – on political institutions, public policy, and conceptions of citizenship in the Canadian federation.

Insiders and Outsiders celebrates the work of Alan Cairns, one of the most influential Canadian social scientists of the contemporary period. Few scholars have helped shape so many key debates in such a wide range of topics in Canadian politics, from the electoral system and federalism, to constitutional and Charter politics, to questions of Aboriginal citizenship. This volume contains engaging and critical analyses of Cairns' contributions by a diverse group of scholars--political scientists, legal scholars, historians, and policymakers, many of them leaders in their own fields. It includes assessments of his role as a public intellectual, his interpretation of Canada's electoral system, his views on federalism and on Canadian unity, his approach to Aboriginal/non-Aboriginal relations, and his writings on citizenship and diversity. The book will be of particular interest to students and scholars of Canadian politics, history, and society, especially those examining issues such as the Charter of Rights, Aboriginal politics, federalism, multiculturalism, political institutions, and political change. It should also be of interest to a larger public that follows the Canadian political scene, and that shares Cairns' concerns with broad questions of citizenship, diversity, and national unity.
