Dr. Alex Souchen presents War Junk: Munitions Disposal and Postwar Reconstruction in Canada.

War Junk reveals the complex political, economic, social, and environmental legacies of munitions disposal in Canada.

Drawing on comprehensive archival research, Alex Souchen provides a definitive account of the disposal crisis triggered by Allied victory and shows how Canadian policymakers implemented a disposal strategy that facilitated postwar reconstruction.
