The Politics of Development reveals the full extent of state involvement in the exploitation of natural resources in Ontario and the reciprocal impact resource development has had in shaping politics in the province. H. V. Nelles exposes the politics at the heart of central Canadian economic development and explains the business history of the forestry and mining industries from the mid-nineteenth through the mid-twentieth century, stressing the importance of public policy. He offers a definitive interpretation of the emergence, development, and political dynamics of public ownership within the hydro-electric sector. This seminal work, first published in 1974, continues to be as relevant as ever to historians, political scientists, economists, and those interested in environmental history. | The Politics of Development by Nelles Nelles, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
