Adopting an interdisciplinary perspective, Freedom from Fear, Freedom from Want is a brief introduction to human security, conflict, and development.

Focusing on Canada's foreign policy towards China, this book critiques the impracticalities in its approach and explores historical and contemporary challenges arising from economic, political, and social disparities. It aims to propose solution-based strategies to address significant diplomatic dilemmas, particularly highlighted during the global pandemic. By introducing a 'human security diplomacy' framework, it seeks to align Canadian values with national interests. The conclusion offers an optimistic perspective on future relations, along with actionable recommendations for improvement.
