Luhicon Lake Nation: Spirit of Resistance

Hill, Dawn J. January 1995 (has links)
<p>There are four objectives of this dissertation. The first is addressing the Native perspective and how that influences both the methodology and theoretical context. The second is developing a context that is both relevant to the Lubicon and myself. as well as the social sciences. The third is describing the field research in Little Buffalo, Alberta over a five year period, and how spirituality and culture shape~; not only perceptions hut human behaviour which is identified as resistance to dominant ideology and oppression. The fourth is providing the Luhicon Cree men and women with an opportunity to tell their story from their own voice. The conclusion brings together the spiritual-theoretical collective voice to address issues of representation and more importantly the very real experience of "genocide."</p> / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Contested heritage : an analysis of the discourse on The spirit sings

Archibald, Samantha L., University of Lethbridge. Faculty of Arts and Science January 1995 (has links)
This thesis contributes to the knowledge of museology, anthropology and Native American studies. It is an analysis of the discourse that surrounded The Spirit Sings: Artistic Traditions of Canada's First Peoples, an exhibition prepared by the Glenbow in Calgary as the 'flagship' of the Olympic Arts Festival in 1988. After the Lubicon Indians of Northern Alberta called for a boycott of The Spirit Sings, in attempt to draw critical attention to their long outstanding lands claim, a large and heated debate ensued involving several disciplines, particularly anthropology and museology. Much of this debate took place in the print media, therefore a large body of material remains to be reviewed and studied. The intent of this thesis is to illustrate that the issue of museological representation of First Nations was one of the most central themes discussed in the discourse, but to argue that the major players dealt with this issue on only the most concrete level and therefore largely neglected to recognize that the issue of First Nation's representation was not just a concern over museum interpretation but more importantly an issue of the contested authenticity of national and cultural claims. / vi, 335 p. ; 29 cm.

Lubicon Lake First Nation concept of education

Cardinal, Maisie 11 1900 (has links)
This paper describes the concept of traditional education. Educators define traditional education as a way of life, spirituality, an act of love, wholistic, language, and culture. In economics, children learn by observing a skill like setting a snare and then actually snaring something, like a rabbit. This paper includes a history of the Lubicon Lake First Nation, history of the first Indian Mission and Northland School Division. It concludes with the idea that now is the time to develop a unique Lubicon Lake First Nation approach to education. This idea means that the First Nation school has the chance to develop their own system in conjunction with mainstream curriculum, but would include appropriate cultural concepts such as language, native spirituality and history.

The political ecology of the Japanese paper industry

Penna, Ian Unknown Date (has links)
The Japanese paper and paperboard industry has grown to be one of the largest in the world. It manufactures a range of products for sale primarily within Japan, and consumes organic fibre for these products from dispersed domestic and foreign forests, plantations and cities. This dissertation examines the links between the development and structure of the industry and its use of papermaking fibre. It takes a political ecology perspective and uses an industrial structure/consumption-production chain approach to show how the industry’s development and structure continue to depend on company control over fibre flows and the restructuring of products, product distribution and manufacture, the fibre supply chain and fibre resources. As with the modern global paper/board industry, the recent growth of the Japanese industry has been characterised by cycles of capacity expansion, market collapse, excess capacity and low prices and profits. Manufacturers and general trading companies involved in the industry have tried to support growth in the use of paper/board and counter these cycles by restructuring production, distribution, ownership and fibre supply. This restructuring helps protect the flow of fibre through the industry and concentrated it in particular companies. Obtaining increasing quantities of suitably-priced fibre has been at the base of the industry’s development.
