CFPF Canadian Political and Diplomatic History E-Book (CPDE) Series

 

Series editor: Daniel Heidt

 

Unpublished graduate research garners little attention. From time to time, however, significant graduate monographs escape the publishers’ glance. While universities have begun to post new dissertations online during the past decade, older research remains isolated on microfilm reels or collecting dust in bound form at a handful of university libraries. Most university libraries do not hold copies of these monographs, and students increasingly prefer online sources. Only the most diligent of students scour footnotes and learn how to use interlibrary loan and microfilm machines to access this forgotten research. When important theses or dissertations have been digitized, they are often difficult to read, and their formatting is unfamiliar and intimidating to students or general readers who otherwise would benefit from access to ground-breaking research and ideas.

 

By facilitating open access, e-publication of selected theses and monographs on Canadian political and diplomatic history topics, we hope that the CPDHE Series will reinvigorate historical debates on Canadian federalism, governance, the state, and foreign policy among undergraduate and graduate students as well as the wider public. While “new political history” utilises various analytical lenses to re-examine well-trodden ground, these studies regularly rely upon unpublished research for basic facts about events or subjects. Consequently, undergraduate and graduate students who do not retrieve copies of these older works are not privy to the narrative accounts that are critical to understanding and opening new debates. 

 

By repackaging significant graduate research as web-based open-access monographs, the CPDHE Series will break through the accessibility barriers. Each e-book will have:

 

• an updated and dynamic appearance and improve reader-appeal
• open-access format that will facilitate hits on library catalogues and internet search engines
• searchable text will expedite research and obviate the lack of indexes in current copies of graduate research

 

In addition, the Series Editor will oversee the composition of a foreword for each volume composed by established or emerging scholars. The foreword will summarize the monograph’s main arguments and describe how its author built on previous scholarship.  It will also explore how the monograph impacted subsequent research and explain its present-day relevance.
