摘要：Scholars who have studied the Canadian state from the perspective of radical political economy have normally emphasized the peculiarly instrumental ties between the Canadian capitalist class and state elites. Many of the important sectors in the Canadian economy are dominated by large monopoly firms, and the resulting concentration in corporate power facilitates personal dealings between capitalists and the state. In addition, there is a degree of commonality among corporate elites, political elites and bureaucratic elites, in terms of schooling and social background, that further encourages quiet, personal meetings on matters of mutual concern.
