The text covers the core concepts of political science, incorporating post-modern ideas and critiques throughout. One of the key strengths of Critical Concepts: An Introduction to Politics is its integration of multiculturalism, feminism, ecology, and other progressive perspectives. Critical Concepts is a contributed volume and draws on the expertise of many respected Canadian political scientists. The purpose of the text remains the same as the first edition: to introduce students to the fundamentals of political science, to engage them with debates, and explore the conceptual shifts and uncertainties brought on by increasing globalization.
