Political Marketing in the 2021 Canadian Federal Election (eBook)

This book offers a fresh take on the dynamics of the 2021 Canadian federal election by focusing on elements pertinent to political marketing and branding rather than just the horse race and campaign dynamics.

Some chapters are collaborations between leading academics and practitioners, which provide new insights into the dynamics of political marketing that enrich this edited volume. The book's content takes our current understandings of Canadian political marketing in new directions.
