COURSE DESCRIPTION Canadian defence is shaped, and shapes, a myriad of economic and political factors located both within and outside Canada. This course covers the application of economic theory and empirics plus a selection of approaches in the study of international relations and Canadian politics. The course has no requirement. OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE This capstone course is intended to help those who wish to work in or around the Canadian defence sector to (1) develop competence in communicating matter of defence politics, economics and policy, and to do so, (2) through exploration of a variety of pertinent subjects and assignments. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES By the end of the course, students should have the ability to understand and evaluate the major concepts, theories, policy issues and empirical work related to the study of the economics and politics of Canadian defence. These include, but are not limited to defence as a public good, the demand for military expenditures, alliances and coalitions, peacekeeping, and civil-military relations. Policy issues include the financing and management of defence, arms trade regulations, and defence procurement risks/uncertainties. Empirical problems such as data availability and evaluation are also addressed. The basics of regression analysis are discussed throughout the course along with the interpretation of statistical results. 1

2 TEACHING & ASSESSMENT METHODS We meet once a week for three hours and the class will emphatically not be a lecture, so be ready to discuss the assigned readings (bring them to class, or at least your notes). There are 3 sources for the reading assignments below (1) the websites (URL s are included and can be accessed though any campus-networked computer; (2) the Morisset Library; (3) the password-protected course website at RAW COURSE SCORE & WEIGHT FINAL COURSE MARKS SHORT ESSAYS (2X20%) - 40% (A+), (A), (A-), GROUP ASSIGNMENTS (3X20%) - 60% (B+), (B), (C+) For graduate students, all grades below the alphanumeric C+ (66%) are failing grades. For substantive meanings behind these numbers and letters, please consult Grading is designed to offer a number of occasions for evaluation, without any one being decisive for the final grade. First, consistently informed participation reflecting regular, close reading of the material is expected. Second, each student may be asked to make an oral presentation on a mutually agreed upon topic. Third, students will compose short texts of a variety of types, giving them the opportunity to improve their competence in written expository expression for the professional requirements of public policy and related areas. (Several experienced practitioners of the relevant skills will participate in classes during the course). Written work consists of two short essays and three group assignments. All written work must be ed to both professors on/before due date and/or at the beginning of class, depending on instructions. Please include your last name and course code & section in the subject and make sure your attachment is a.doc or.docx, not PDF (this helps with comments). The word counts in the following are maxima (add 15% to the length condition if you re writing in French). Quality written work can be less than specified length without jeopardizing grades. Short Essay #1: Why couldn t Canada be like Australia, Canada s long-standing Five Eyes and ABCA ally and strategic cousin, and maintain a relatively healthy defence budget regardless of the health of the overall economy? Conversely, what about New Zealand, also a Five Eyes/ABCA ally, and give up on all combat aircraft? Or Iceland, a fellow NATO ally, and abolish its standing military altogether? For that matter, closer to Canada s North American home, there is Mexico, a country with decidedly inward-oriented military activities. USE one of these points of comparison and discuss Canada s defence policy. Short Essay #2: In Canada, politics is regional and defence, by its nature, is national. Is this why defence spending is low in Canada? Short essay=800 words exclusive of bibliography, references and/or foonotes. An A range essay will: 1) have an argument that is relevant to the above questions/statements (An argument = assertion + explanation + evidence); 2) be analytical, not descriptive; 3) properly cite all borrowed ideas within the text (any citation style will do). Due 24h before class via . Group Assignment #1: Briefing Note & PowerPoint Deck: A new minister of National Defence has been appointed and she will be briefed on current and upcoming files concerning the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and the Department of National 2

3 Defence (DND). The Assistant Deputy Minister (ADM) for policy will be briefing the minister and he has identified the 2014 Wales Summit Declarations to be one of the key files that the minister needs to be briefed on. Specifically, the Wales Summit declaration number 14 that recommends NATO member states to spend about 2% of gross domestic production (GDP) on defence expenditures and 20% of the defence expenditures to be spent on or allocated to capital or equipment expenditures. As a group of analysts in the policy shop you are tasked to write a briefing note on: a. The current situation in Canada in terms of defence expenditures including any projections that stems from recent federal budgets or other government communiques. b. Including discussions on Canada s relative ranking in NATO within the context of the Wales Declaration and c. Any policy relevant academic literature and its associated recommendations on alliance collaboration. In addition the ADM wants to have access to the following information, in addition to the briefing note: a. There are differing numbers both nationally and internationally on Canada s defence spending. What are the main differences and how are they reconciled? i. Which one should he use when briefing and why? ii. The relative magnitude of defence expenditures in comparison to discretionary spending and overall Federal spending? iii. What has been the trend of the above since 1990? 2000? 2008? iv. According to NATO, what has been Canada s equipment expenditure since 2000? b. This information should be included in a PowerPoint Deck. Additional Material to Use for the Assignment: The briefing note should not exceed 1,000 words (font size 12 and max. 1.5 spacing). The PowerPoint Deck should not exceed 20 slides. Due 24h before class via in Week 5, followed by the group PowerPoint presentation in class. Group Assignment #2: Policy Memo & Press Release: One of last year s big political controversies involving the Trudeau government was the Saudi Arms deal an arrangement to sell $15-billion worth of light-armoured vehicles to human rightsabusing Saudi Arabia. A key moment in the controversy was the release of a heretofore secret Global Affairs Canada memo by the Justice Department in April 2016 that showed that Stéphane Dion, Minister of Foreign Affairs, approved the sale on March 21 of the same year contradicting the government s line that export permits for the deal were authorized by Stephen Harper s Conservative government. The memo: Using the resources available on the Internet or elsewhere, select, summarize, analyze and provide alternative Saudi Arms Deal policy memos to Minister Dion. Group 1 will provide a memo recommending approval for export permits, and Group 2 will provide a memo recommending disapproval. Unlike the actual Global Affairs Canada memo, this one will focus on responsive media lines collecting the facts and preparing appropriate information to be offered to the mass media. To that end, each group will also write a press release, taking the recommended position and advocating it. 3

4 The format of the alternative memos should follow the style of the GAC memo linked above (summary, font size 12, single-space etc.), but should not exceed 5 pages. The press release should be 500 words, and can be appended to the memo. Due 24h before class via in Week 12. Memos & press releases will be discussed in class. Group Assignment #3: Analyzing Defence White Papers: The government of Canada is slated to publish a Defence White Paper sometimes in early 2017, and this will give us an opportunity to closely analyze both the document itself as well as its reception in the Canadian and international mass media. Identifying and prioritizing key Canadian Armed Forces tasks and roles for the next 10 to 20 years, this document is the culmination of a long process of review one that began two years after the 2008 Canada First Defence Strategy was published by the previous government. It also builds on a public consultation process that took place between April and July The purpose of this assignment is to analyze the 2017 White Paper via a compare-andcontrast with analogous documents published by Australian, British and French governments in recent years the 2016 Australian Defence White Paper, the 2015 National Security Strategy and Strategic Defence and Security Review, and the 2013 Livre blanc français de la défense (also available in English). While each of these countries has a unique strategic outlook and unique defence forces, similarities on security and defence matters exist hence their participation in the same alliance system. As a group of analysts you are tasked to identify key similarities and differences across these four documents focusing on a) concepts of national interests, values, security and strategy; b) matching capability plans with funding envelopes and other resources; c) detailing opportunities and challenges (risks, threats); and d) the length of time horizons. On how to evaluate this particular genre of government writing, see: Joel Sokolsky and Joseph Jockel, A Defence Review?

15 Academic Fraud Academic fraud is an act committed by a student to distort the marking of assignments, tests, examinations, and other forms of academic evaluation. Academic fraud is neither accepted nor tolerated by the University. Anyone found guilty of academic fraud is liable to severe academic sanctions. Here are a few examples of academic fraud: engaging in any form of plagiarism or cheating; presenting falsified research data; handing in an assignment that was not authored, in whole or in part, by the student; submitting the same assignment in more than one course, without the written consent of the professors concerned. In recent years, the development of the Internet has made it much easier to identify academic plagiarism. The tools available to your professors allow them to trace the exact origin of a text on the Web, using just a few words. In cases where students are unsure whether they are at fault, it is their responsibility to consult the University s Web site at the following address: «Tools for Writing Papers and Assignments». Persons who have committed or attempted to commit (or have been accomplices to) academic fraud will be penalized. Here are some examples of the academic sanctions, which can be imposed: a grade of «F» for the assignment or course in question; an additional program requirement of between 3 and 30 credits; suspension or expulsion from the Faculty. Last session, most of the students found guilty of fraud were given an «F» for the course and had between three and twelve credits added to their program requirement.
