Abstract Recent scholarship has revealed a “participatory paradox” that highlights how increased support for participatory initiatives continues to be limited by centralized forms of decisionmaking. To explain this paradox, this article uses the analytical framework of Critical Institutionalism (CI) to explain how the professionalization of planning establishes distinct ways of knowing the urban public realm. Despite the presence of new participatory practices, these professionalized ways of knowing continue to trump the experiential knowledge of participants.

Abstract This paper focuses on the period 2009 to 2019 and is principally concerned with two objectives: first, to determine how austerity urbanism has affected municipal recreation workers' conditions and quality of employment and, secondly, to asses how recreation restructuring has affected accessibility for users and whether there has been a differential impact for low-income and racialized communities. Drawing from interviews with both recreation workers and participants, we argue that urban austerity has intensified the pressures and precariousness faced by recreation workers, while simultaneously compromising inclusive and accessible services for historically marginalized groups.

Abstract Canada had a conservative response to the world-historical crisis of the 1930s. This paper argues that the underlying reason for Canada’s conservatism was the absence of a rapprochement between farmers and workers at the national level. The Conservatives and the Liberals were the only national parties that could arrange such a rapprochement at the time, yet with their ideological rigidity and political timidity, they passed up the opportunity. For comparison, this paper also refers to four cases from the Anglo-American “family of nations,” examining responses by the United Kingdom, Australia, the United States, and New Zealand.

Abstract Comparative democratization scholars tend to examine the national level of the state with little concern for the impact of different levels or scales of political activity. Drawing from critical institutionalism, this paper provides a spatiotemporal analysis of the intersection of economic and political struggles that have led to regional democratization in Britain.

Abstract Dr. Laurie Adkin is one of Canada’s pre-eminent environmental political theorists. In this wide-ranging interview, she draws connections across the political, economic, and personal challenges involved in taking on a capitalist political economy bent on the unsustainable exploitation of natural resources in the face of climate destabilization. Adkin discusses why it is important for concerned researchers and citizens to continue to speak out about these issues, and makes the links between environmental activism, decolonization struggles, and democratization.

Abstract This article examines the dynamics of the 2020 US elections in counterpoint to the antiracist uprising in defense of Black lives earlier in the year. The complex mediations of race and class in the United States are centred in the analysis of the election campaign and its aftermath. Failure by the American Left to build an antiracist working-class movement, it is argued, could be disastrous in the face of a resurgent far-Right.

Abstract This paper examines the evolution of three key institutional systems—CAW/UNIFOR unions, General Motors Canada, and the Canadian federal State—and their impact on workplace relations in Oshawa over a 25-year period. It places particular focus on union policies and shows that important opportunities for workplace transition were lost as local and national leaders avoided critical economic issues and failed to seriously contend with changing objective conditions.

Internationally known economist Dr. John Loxley passed away suddenly on July 28, 2020. In this article, we pay tribute to him, a proud heterodox economist and a rare scholar who believed in the importance of sharing his knowledge and talents with people working on the ground to build a more equitable world. John, a faculty member in the University of Manitoba Department of Economics for 43 years, was the recipient of many awards and is known for building a bridge between academia and community.

Abstract Following a summary of the basic argument of the book The Making of Global Capitalism: The Political Economy of American Empire, SPE presents an interview with one of its authors, Leo Panitch—the last he gave before his untimely death. Leo addresses the current political situation in the United States, the impact the Trump administration had on the global order, and the strategic challenges facing socialists and the Left in general.
