Book excerpt: Inuit have lived in Canada's north since time immemorial. The Canadian government's administration of Inuit affairs, however, has been generally shorter and is less well understood than the federal government's relations with First Nations and Métis. We hope to correct some of this knowledge imbalance by providing an overview of the federal government's Inuit policy and program development from first contact to 2006. Topics that are covered by this book include the 1939 Re Eskimo decision that gave Canada constitutional responsibility for Inuit, post World War II acculturation and defence projects, law and justice, sovereignty and relocations, the E-number identification system, Inuit political organizations, comprehensive claim agreements, housing, healthcare, education, economic development, self-government, the environment and urban issues. In order to develop meaningful forward-looking policy, it is essential to understand what has come before and how we got to where we are. We believe that this book will be a valuable contribution to a growing body of knowledge about Canada-Inuit relations, and will be an indispensable resource to all students of federal Inuit and northern policy development.

Book excerpt: "The report, 'Make It Safe: Canada's Obligation to End the First Nations Water Crisis,' documents the impacts of serious and prolonged drinking water and sanitation problems for thousands of indigenous people--known as "First Nations"--living on reserves. It assesses why there are problems with safe water and sanitation on reserves, including a lack of binding water quality regulations, erratic and insufficient funding, faulty or sub-standard infrastructure, and degraded source waters. The federal government's own audits over two decades show a pattern of overpromising and underperforming on water and sanitation for reserves"--Publisher's description.
Download or read book Polar Peoples written by Hugh Beach and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The northern regions of the globe were populated by indigenous peoples long before explorers, gold-diggers, missionaries, bureaucrats and others ‘discovered’ their land. Polar Peoples describes the sometimes catastrophic effect these incomers and the changing world in general have had on native ways of life in this vast geographical area. It also outlines the awakening of native political activism and some of the most important steps taken towards self-determination by the indigenous peoples of the North. Greenland: Emergence of an Inuit Homeland (by Mark Nuttall) Unusual because of Home Rule from Denmark Native Peoples of the Russian Far North (by Nikolai Vakhtin) Little known outside Russia, these minority groups face an uncertain future The Alaska Natives (by Fae L. Korsmo) Highly significant because of the Alaska Native Claims Act The Inuit of Canada (by Ian Creery) Dene and Nunavut claims have been the subject of much political activity in recent months The Saami of Lapland (by Hugh Beach) Currently dealing with many different issues, from the ongoing effects of Chernoby] on their reindeer herds, to the disintegration of the Soviet Union. With each section written by a recognized expert in his or her field, Polar Peoples gives a fascinating look at this politically and environmentally changing area on the roof of the world. Please note that the terminology in the fields of minority rights and indigenous peoples’ rights has changed over time. MRG strives to reflect these changes as well as respect the right to self-identification on the part of minorities and indigenous peoples. At the same time, after over 50 years’ work, we know that our archive is of considerable interest to activists and researchers. Therefore, we make available as much of our back catalogue as possible, while being aware that the language used may not reflect current thinking on these issues.

Download or read book Human Rights in Cross Cultural Perspectives written by Abdullahi Ahmed An-Na'im and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human rights violations are perpetrated in all parts of the world, and the universal reaction to such atrocities is overwhelmingly one of horror and sadness. Yet, as Abdullahi Ahmed An-Na'im and his contributors attest, our viewpoint is clouded and biased by the expectations native to our own culture. How do other cultures view human rights issues? Can an analysis of these issues through multiple viewpoints, both cross-cultural and indigenous, help us reinterpret and reconstruct prevailing theories of human rights?

Download or read book Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples written by Cohen and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2023-09-20 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples approaches this complex subject from two directions: first, the existing framework of international law, both actual and potential, as embodied in the relevant provisions of international conventions and the case law of international tribunals; and second, specific issues that arise between indigenous peoples in the United States, Canada, Latin America, Scandinavia, India, and Australia and the states which exercise jurisdiction in their homelands. This book, by a leading authority on children's rights, is a major contribution to an area of international law that attracts more attention each year, and that many human rights advocates see as a critical testing ground for the genuineness of states' humanitarian rhetoric. Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.

Download or read book Human Rights Education Global Responsibilities written by James Lynch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1992. This is Volume 4 of a series of four on Cultural Diversity and the Schools and focusses on Human Rights, Education and Global Responsibilities. One of the major problems facing societies in almost all parts of the world is the inadequate accommodation of social equity with cultural diversity. The crisis emanating from neglect of this issue can be seen in societies as different and wide apart as the Soviet Union, India, Pakistan, the United States and the United Kingdom. This series seeks to contribute, through joint publication and the stimulation of greater discourse, to identify the pathways to a less selfish and parochial response to the continuing dilemma of equity and diversity, not solely within the nation state, but also internationally.
