Today's globalization debates pit neoliberals, who favour even deeper integration into the global economy, against neo-mercantilists, who call for a relatively selective approach to globalization and the return to more interventionist industrial policies. Both sides claim to have the facts on their side. Inspired by the work of economists Ha-Joon Chang and Dani Rodrik, editors Andrew Smith and Dimitry Anastakis bring together essays from both historians and economists in this collection to test claims that wealth comes from either protectionism or free trade. With empirical research that spans more than a century of Canadian history, Smart Globalization demonstrates that Canada's success stemmed neither from complete openness to globalization or policies of isolation and self-sufficiency.

"Smart Globalization offers an important starting point for Canadian historians to account for the steady march of openness rather than protectionism over the last century and half in Canada."

‘This collection will be of interest to anyone interested in better understanding the historical complexities and contingencies of economic life in a globalizing world… Many scholars will find this book to be well worth a read.’
» Don Nerbas, Labour/Le Travail, vol 76: Fall 2015
«‘This is a fascinating study of the approach taken to the international economy by decision makers in Canada …By bringing together essays from both historians and economists, editors Smith and Anastakis have given readers a set of studies that puts the Canadian case most instructively in the context of intelligent globalization… Highly recommended.’»
