History
Why Is Michael D. Behiels Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Michael Derek Behiels is a Canadian historian who served as a professor and University Research Chair in the Department of History at the University of Ottawa, specializing in twentieth-century Canadian politics. A student of Ramsay Cook, he is a prominent defender of Pierre Trudeau's conception of federalism: no special status for Quebec and maintenance of linguistic minority rights. In 1985, while a faculty member at Acadia University, his published doctoral dissertation Prelude to Quebec's Quiet Revolution was nominated for the Governor General's Award for English-language non-fiction. Thanks to this book's success, he is still considered to be a major authority on the thought of former Le Devoir editor André Laurendeau.
