While Canada’s population has been projected to continue to grow for many decades, what happens elsewhere in terms of population growth will be particularly important to Canada. Although greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) in Canada have levelled off somewhat over the last decade and a half, global emissions have continued to climb. As a direct result, with increased GHGs in the atmosphere, Canada’s northern climate has already been impacted in a major way with considerable warming, particularly in its most northern forests and Arctic ecosystems. L’accroissement de la population, autant a l’echelle nationale que mondiale, aura certainement un effet sur le climat au Canada et, plus largement, sur son environnement. Selon les projections, la population canadienne devrait continuer a augmenter pendant encore plusieurs decennies. Or, ce qui se passe ailleurs en termes d’accroissement de la population sera particulierement important pour le Canada. Bien que les emissions de gaz a effet de serre (GES) au Canada se soient nivelees au cours de la derniere decennie et demie, les emissions globales ont cependant continue a grimper. En consequence directe de cette augmentation de GES dans l’atmosphere, le climat dans le nord du Canada a deja subi un impact majeur par un rechauffement important, surtout dans les forets les plus au nord et les ecosystemes arctiques.

The first edition was published in 1985 as a self-described (by the author in the Preface) one-off attempt to make sense of changing geographies of the world economy. Clearly, that attempt appealed to readers, since here we are in the seventh edition. And it is easy to see why, as this review will elucidate. Peter Dicken is a highly acclaimed Emeritus Professor of Economic Geography, School of Environment and Development, University of Manchester. The four principles that guide this volume are revealed in every chapter: (1) to be solidly empirical but not descriptive; (2) to theor-etically and broadly engage with globalization ideas; (3) to connect current events with longer term processes; and (4) to acknowledge the complexities of globalization. This reviewer would add that this book, unlike much writing on globalization, is unequivocally interdisciplinary, giving it strength and depth of insight. And it has companion websites for both students and instructors that include more than the usual sets of discussion or test questions, also a wide array of additional readings and resources. entitled and","PeriodicalId":44334,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Studies in Population","volume":"45 1","pages":"110-112"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2018-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.25336/CSP29369","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41827067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It links the changing life cycle patterns brought by the increase in the age of entry into the different phases of life and the increase in life expectancy to emerging issues related to population peaking such as the recruitment and the aging of immigrants or the future labour demand and supply by broad skill levels. Although most of the paper is theoretical in nature, a short section of it takes an empirical look and contrasts cross-sectional and life cycle estimates of economic dependency ratios for Canadian-born and foreign-born. These estimates are obtained from a dynamic microsimulation model of the Canadian population (LSD-C) that takes into account, among other things, differentials in labour force participation or educational attainment between population groups. The article concludes with suggestions on the most important data gaps that need to be filled to better inform policymaking processes.","PeriodicalId":44334,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Studies in Population","volume":"45 1","pages":"11-18"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2018-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.25336/CSP29381","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43945554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
