Of Memory and Furniture is described by Julienne van Loon as 'a deeply feminist project', and by David Brooks as 'bold, explicit and unapologetic'. This collection in four parts explores experiences of female embodiment, sexuality, and relationships with family, lovers and institutions. It is concerned with expressions of female sexuality in its myriad forms - heterosexual, lesbian, and experiences of nonnormative sexuality - as well as issues of maternal subjectivity, mental health and abuse and, throughout, the role of memory in enabling healing. The poems are at once erotic and deeply thought through, intelligent and tender.

Canada’s Constitution cannot be understood without a thorough foundation in the judicial interpretation of its provisions and principles. This collection of leading decisions by the relevant high courts – the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council until 1949 and the Supreme Court of Canada thereafter – provides that grounding. The third edition of this seminal text is updated to include the most salient, enduring, and influential high court decisions to date. It introduces students to trends and nuances in jurisprudence affecting the major dimensions of the Canadian Constitution, including the federal division of powers, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Indigenous rights, and constitutional change. Each of the 58 decisions in this collection features an introductory essay and discussion questions . The book contains a comprehensive essay on the institutional and historical determinants of judicial interpretation of the Constitution and a bibliography for further reading. Readers will acquire an appreciation of both the legal and political influences on judicial interpretation, the complexity of our constitutional structures, and the influences of the personalities and predilections of Canada’s senior jurists. Proceeding from the conviction that history and institutions matter, this collection will give readers a sophisticated understanding of the Constitution, the work of Canada’s courts, and the development of the Canadian liberal democratic regime.

The welfare state has, over the past forty years, come under increasing attack from liberals who consider comprehensive welfare provision inimical to liberalism. Yet, many of the architects of the post-World War II welfare states were liberals, many of whom were economists as much as socialists. Liberalism and the Welfare State investigates the thinking of liberal economists about welfare, focusing on Britain, Germany and Japan, each of which had a different tradition of economic thinking and different institutions for welfare provision. This volume explores the early history of welfare thinking from the British New Liberals of the early twentieth century, German Ordoliberals and post-war Japanese Liberal economists. It delves into arguments about neoliberalism under British Conservative and New Labour governments, after German reunification, and under Koizumi in Japan. Given the importance of both international policy collaboration and international networks of neoliberal economists, this volume also explores neoliberal ideas on federalism and the responses of neoliberal think tanks to the global financial crisis. Liberalism and the Welfare State provides a comparative analysis of economists' attitudes to the welfare state. Notwithstanding the differences, in each country support emerged very early on for social minimum standards, but strong disagreements within each country quickly developed. The result was divergence, as the debates shaped different welfare regimes. More recently, the strong impact of efficiency related critiques of welfare regimes has crowded out more nuanced and complex discussions of the past. This volume provides a reminder that neither liberalism nor economic ideas in general are inimical to well-designed welfare provision. The ongoing debate on economics and welfare can be greatly improved by way of stronger consideration of different lineages of both liberal and neoliberal lines of economic thought.
