Book Breaking the Ice

Download or read book Breaking the Ice written by Barry Scott Zellen and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breaking the Ice is a comparative study of the movement for native land claims and indigenous rights in Alaska and the Western Arctic, and the resulting transformation in domestic politics as the indigenous peoples of the North gained an increasingly prominent role in the governance of their homeland. This work is based on field research conducted by the author during his nine-year residency in the Western Arctic. Zellen discusses the major conflicts facing Alaskan Natives, from the struggle to regain control over their land claims to the Native alienation from the corporate structure and culture and the resulting resurgence in tribalism. He shows that while the forces of modernism and traditionalism continued to clash, these conflicts were mediated by the structures of co-management, corporate development, and self-government created by the region's comprehensive land claims settlements. Breaking the Ice gives testimony to the achievements of Alaskan Natives through peaceful negotiation, and argues that the age of land claims has transmuted this same tribal force into something else altogether in the North: a peaceful force to spawn the emergence of new structures of Aboriginal self-governance.

Book Additional Granular Resources Information  Inuvialuit Settlement Region Granular Management Planning

Download or read book Additional Granular Resources Information Inuvialuit Settlement Region Granular Management Planning written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Under the terms of the Inuvialuit Final Agreement (IFA), the Inuvialuit Land Administration (ILA) is mandated with managing lands and surface resources (including granular material) on Inuvialuit-owned lands of the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR). The Government of Canada has been supporting work to facilitate development of a formal granular resource management plan to assist the ILA through Task 7 - Sand and Gravel Inventories of the IFA Implementation Program (IFAIP). Recent work identified and collected data based on consultations with ISR land management staff (ILA), associated planning offices (Inuvialuit Joint Secretariat (JS)) and other government offices, including Northern Granular Resources Program and, Resources (DIAND), Wildlife and Economic Development (Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development (RWED), Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT). As a result, data sets were listed and described in a data model referred to as the Granular Resource Management Model (GRMM). Geographic Information Systems (GIS), properly implemented, can be a powerful tool in resource management. Some examples of how GIS can be used include: determining resource potential and economic viability, predicting future resource pressures, and demonstrating constraining affects of specific factors on resource availability. Integrated resource management utilizes a wide spectrum of data sets to ensure viable resource management through sustainable stewardship of the resource. A number of geo-spatial data sets are presented here in order to orientate users and parties interested in the availability of spatial data for northwestern Canada and in particular the ISR. Quality spatial data is critical in GIS implementation. More than simply having access to data, the continued implementation of various data sets requires sufficient information about the data. Development of metadata, which is information about data or GIS layers using various categories (e.g., text description, citation information, date published), can fulfill this requirement plus provide a standard format to collect this information. Ever greater numbers of spatial data sets are being developed and much of it is available inexpensively (especially over the internet) through government and private offices. Knowledge of these data and sources of data will facilitate the development of the ILA's GIS. ... This report presents a GIS database built upon the former GRMM. In addition, a metadata table structure has been developed and records on each database theme are included (Appendix 1). These results stem from various data investigations that included government and commercial sources often with the use of the internet. This work was completed for DIAND under Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) Contract no. A7134-7-0016. R.J. Gowan of DIAND was the Scientific Authority for the project. Examples of new data sets are: bedrock and surficial geology, detailed ecosystems, high resolution (1:250,000 scale) topography, low resolution (1:7.5 million and smaller scale) topography, and other raster data (e.g., Landsat TM enhanced to show outcrops, lowland areas). Other themes are considered as less important but potentially useful such as elevation/shaded relief imagery."--ASTIS [online] bibliography.
