Richard Nimijean

I became a member of Carleton's School of Canadian Studies in 2001. I research and teach in the areas of Canadian Studies, national identity and the politics of branding Canada, Canadian politics and public policy, Canada-US relations, and Canada and global issues. Previous work looked at regional innovation systems, science and technology policy, and scholarly communication.
