Abstract
Based on a literature review, this study provides an overview of the factors influencing the development of political science in Canada. Inevitably, this approach has a chronological bias, but it has been widened to take account of different perspectives and factors normally considered external to the discipline. The analysis points to episodic rather than linear development and takes account of the interrelationships and variable weights of the social, intellectual, academic, international and economic climates at different times. A model of development is presented which, while limited by its one-country focus, assembles pertinent variables to be tested against experience in other countries and certain considerations relevant to the nurturing of disciplines.
