In this third revised edition, Augie Fleras tackles critical questions with great breadth and depth. Within a solid theoretical framework, and by way of its new millennium perspective, Social Problems in Canada addresses topical issues--such as poverty, gender, racism, the media, national identity, and globalism. The author provides an animated and engaging discussion of past and present social conditions that define and challenge Canada as a nation.
