Chris Dornan and I have finalized plans for the “Carleton book” on the 2011 election.

THE CANADIAN FEDERAL ELECTION OF 2011

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Chris Dornan

CHAPTER TWO THE CONSERVATIVES Faron Ellis and Peter Woolstencroft

CHAPTER THREE THE LIBERALS Brooke Jeffrey

CHAPTER FOUR THE NEW DEMOCRATS David McGrane

CHAPTER FIVE THE BLOC QUEBECOIS Eric Belanger and Richard Nadeau

CHAPTER SIX THE GREENS Susan Harada

CHAPTER SEVEN CONSTITUENCY CAMPAIGNING Alex Marland

CHAPTER EIGHT THE POLLS Andre Turcotte

CHAPTER NINE CAMPAIGNING IN THE ‘NEW MEDIA’ Mary Francoli and Chris Waddell

CHAPTER TEN THE NATURE OF MODERN CONSERVATISM Jonathan Malloy and Jim Farney

CHAPTER ELEVEN VOTING BEHAVIOUR Harold Clarke and Tom Scotto

CHAPTER TWELVE HARPER: DYNASTY OR INTERLUDE? Jon Pammett and Lawrence LeDuc

APPENDIX: THE RESULTS.

This book will be available from Dundurn, Toronto, in the fall, in time certainly for January courses and perhaps for part of fall classes.

I confidently expect that this blog will be making an appearance in Chapter Nine.

I would also like to express my support for our dogged parliamentary press corps in their efforts to get Ignatieff to rule out a coalition. In that way we can hope that these books will appear with the frequency to which we have become accustomed.

Jon Pammett is Professor of Political Science at Carleton University, and ao-author of Dynasties and Interludes: Past and Present in Canadian Electoral Politics.
