Wallace Clement is quite simply an outstanding scholar and social commentator. His four monographs, two books of collected essays and very long list of articles constitute a truly impressive corpus of writing for one still so young. This work has played a crucial role in the development of a
paradigm for theory and research within the political economy approach now so influential in Canadian Sociology. His work artfully combines aspects of theoretical sophistication, research rigour, and social criticism. As such it has set a theoretical and research agenda influencing a large international corp of sociologists, political scientists and historians.
