Description
Discusses the resilience of reciprocity rites practiced by the Chukotka people in Russia; describes how the people continued to practice these rites, which honour their relationships with the reindeer and the salmon on which they subsisted, even as the Soviet state reordered the social and economic structures in their region.
Presents a study that examines the unique problems and issues that effect the sustainability of nine communities that are timber-dependent, tourist dependent, subsistence dependent, and forest dependent.
Beginning with the observations of Indigenous Elders and land-users, authors examine and articulate the relationship between the rise and fall of muskrat populations and ice-jam flooding on the Peace River and in the Peace-Athabasca Delta (PAD), and how that has been affected by climate change.
