Leadership and Law Among the Eskimos of the Keewatin District, Northwest Territories
Author: Geert van den Steenhoven
Publisher: Rijswijk : Excelsior
ISBN:
Category : Customary law
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
The District of Keewatin in the Canadian Northwest Territories is an arctic tundra country and the home of two main groups of Eskimos whose societies will be the subject of the present study. On the Barren Grounds west of Hudson Bay, the Caribou Eskimos lead an inland-oriented life and, in fact, some of their groups rarely, if ever, visit the sea-shore. Their northern neighbours - whose hunting grounds stretch as far north as the Boothia Peninsula where Ross first located the Magnetic Pole in 1830 - are the Netsilik Eskimos; these now chiefly depend on the resources of the sea and their life therefore corresponds more closely to our stereotype concepts than that of the Caribou Eskimo. -- from Introductory notes.

Encyclopedia of Criminology
Author: J. Mitchell Miller
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135455430
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 4407
Book Description
This three-volume work offers a comprehensive review of the pivotal concepts, measures, theories, and practices that comprise criminology and criminal justice. No longer just a subtopic of sociology, criminology has become an independent academic field of study that incorporates scholarship from numerous disciplines including psychology, political science, behavioral science, law, economics, public health, family studies, social work, and many others. The three-volume Encyclopedia of Criminology presents the latest research as well as the traditional topics which reflect the field's multidisciplinary nature in a single, authoritative reference work. More than 525 alphabetically arranged entries by the leading authorities in the discipline comprise this definitive, international resource. The pivotal concepts, measures, theories, and practices of the field are addressed with an emphasis on comparative criminology and criminal justice. While the primary focus of the work is on American criminology and contemporary criminal justice in the United States, extensive global coverage of other nations' justice systems is included, and the increasing international nature of crime is explored thoroughly. Providing the most up-to-date scholarship in addition to the traditional theories on criminology, the Encyclopedia of Criminology is the essential one-stop reference for students and scholars alike to explore the broad expanse of this multidisciplinary field.

Arctic Promise
Author: Natalia Loukacheva
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 144269176X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
In Canada's Eastern Arctic and Greenland, the Inuit have been the majority for centuries. In recent years, they have been given a promise from Canadian and Danish governments that offers them more responsibility for their lands and thus control over their lives without fear of being outnumbered by outsiders. The Arctic Promise looks at how much the Inuit vision of self-governance relates to the existing public governance systems of Greenland and Nunavut, and how much autonomy there can be for territories that remain subordinate units of larger states. By means of a bottom-up approach involving cultural immersion, contextual, jurisprudential, and historical legal comparisons of Greenland and Nunavut, The Arctic Promise examines the forms, evolution, and scope of the right to autonomy in these Arctic jurisdictions. Loukacheva argues that the right to autonomy should encompass or protect Inuit jurisdiction in legal systems and the administration of justice, and should allow the Inuit direct participation in international affairs where issues that affect their homelands are concerned. The Arctic Promise deals with areas of comparative constitutional law, international law, Aboriginal law, legal anthropology, political science, and international relations, using each to contribute to the understanding of the right to indigenous autonomy.
