Summary/Abstract |
This article revisits volume 1 of International Journal to illustrate the power of "critical remembrance" to deepen the discourse about and sharpen the debate over contemporary global issues and Canada's potential as a force for peace and progress. Setting the origins of the journal in historical context, the article considers the immediate postwar mood of its contributors and their myriad suggestions for Canada's appropriate role. The article concludes with a plea for "historical literacy" as an indispensable starting point for reimagining the world in which we live.
