POLD55H3: The Politics of Equality and Inequality in Canada

This seminar provides an in-depth examination of the politics of inequality in Canada, and the role of the Canadian political-institutional framework in contributing to political, social and economic (in)equality. The focus will be on diagnosing how Canada’s political institutions variously impede and promote equitable treatment of different groups of Canadians (such as First Nations, women, racial and minority groups) and the feasibility of possible institutional and policy reforms to promote goals of social and economic equity.

Area of Focus: Canadian Government and Politics
