Theses
Author/Creator
Christopher Walmsley
Description
Social Work Thesis (Ph.D.)--Université Laval, 2001.
Author has learned that Indigenous peoples can engage in dialogue in the universities and create their own intellectual, theoretical, and epistemological spaces rather than embracing only cynicism and suspicion of academia.
Contends that graduates in the sports and recreational field do not learn what life is like in an Aboriginal community and so attempts to develop effective sports and recreation programs in the communities almost always fail.
