The United States, Canada, and Mexico came together to transform their economic relations with NAFTA sixteen years ago. The terrorist attacks of September 11th prompted a dramatic change in security relations among the three countries, particularly at their borders.

And now, amid a slow recovery from the global recession of 2009, do these nations still share a common agenda and a will to work together?

Political scientists Monica Gattinger and Geoffrey Hale look to the future of cross-border cooperation and North American relations in their new book, Borders and Bridges: Canada's Policy Relations in North America (Oxford University Press, 2010).
