Beach Ridge Geomorphology Of Kotzebue Sound: Implications For Paleoclimatology And Archaeology, Owen Kenneth Mason Apr 1990

Beach Ridge Geomorphology Of Kotzebue Sound: Implications For Paleoclimatology And Archaeology, Owen Kenneth Mason

Theses (Unassigned)

Beach ridges occur on all continents and record the horizontal addition of shoreface beyond the reach of storms. Improved cartographic methods in the nineteenth century allowed British historians to link shoreline changes with abandoned villages. This scientific trajectory was paralleled in the Bering Strait region from the 1880's to the 1930's. In the 1950's J. L. Giddings formalized "beach ridge archaeology" as a survey strategem using relative position to infer relative cultural chronology in northwest Alaska. Modern researchers use archaeological dates and data to document past climates or environments. At Cape Espenberg, on Seward Peninsula, my use of archaeological, stratigraphic, …

Smooth The Dying Pillow: Alaska Natives And Their Destruction [Chapter], Stephen Conn Apr 1990

Smooth The Dying Pillow: Alaska Natives And Their Destruction [Chapter], Stephen Conn

Book chapters

The policy for Native self-determination in Alaska developed by the Congress and the state has sought to replace a tribal model of governance with a body of legislation which confirms land rights without the direct political involvement of Alaska Native villages. However, the author argues, the absence of tribes as formal political structures has contributed to a loss of self-determination among Alaska Natives and to serious negative effects on Native village life.


Selective Return Of Criminal Law Activity To Alaska Native Villages: Neocolonialism Or Revitalization Of Tribal Sovereignty?, Conn N/A Mar 1990

Selective Return Of Criminal Law Activity To Alaska Native Villages: Neocolonialism Or Revitalization Of Tribal Sovereignty?, Conn N/A

Conference papers

As Alaska struggles with criminal justice delivery to Alaska Native villages, many experiments have been undertaken or postulated which would reinvigorate criminal law activity in these rural places. Initial enthusiasm for alleviation of burdens on the formal system has been replaced with a state concern that village activity will be viewed as tribal activity. The author isolates areas where the needs of the state and villages can be met without feeding the flames of the conflict between state sovereignty and village tribal sovereignty.

From Land Rights To Sovereignty: Curious Parallels Between Alaskan And Canadian Indigenous Peoples, Conn N/A Nov 1989

From Land Rights To Sovereignty: Curious Parallels Between Alaskan And Canadian Indigenous Peoples, Conn N/A

Conference papers

Alaska Natives and Canadian aboriginal peoples have been late bloomers in securing land claims based on aboriginal title and its extinguishment. While the reasons for this delay relate to the discrete development of Indian policy in each country, both groups now find themselves seeking explicit governmental authority to regulate this domain. Despite the juridical premise that only those groups capable of controlling land have aboriginal claims to cede and/or extinguish, modern groups must secure federal confirmation of their sovereign powers. Barriers in each country are similar; so are the strategies employed.

The Akulmiut: Territorial Dimensions Of A Yup'ik Eskimo Society, Elizabeth Frances Andrews Apr 1989

The Akulmiut: Territorial Dimensions Of A Yup'ik Eskimo Society, Elizabeth Frances Andrews

Anthropology

This monograph is an ethnohistoric and ethnographic study of 19th and 20th century land and resource use of the Akulmiut, a Yup'ik-speaking Eskimo society that occupied the inland tundra region between the Yukon and Kuskokwim rivers of western Alaska. The study examines the relationship between the patterns of spatial organization and wild resource utilization and resource distribution. Ethnographic studies have shown there is considerable variability in socioterritorial organization, which according to one recent theory, applied to this study, can be accounted for by examining the distribution of critical food resources in terms of density and predictability. The Akulmiut were selected …

Telling Them What They Want To Hear: Involvement With The Indigenous Populations As A Lawyer-Legal Anthropologist In Alaska And Canada, Stephen Conn Apr 1989

Telling Them What They Want To Hear: Involvement With The Indigenous Populations As A Lawyer-Legal Anthropologist In Alaska And Canada, Stephen Conn

Conference papers

For some purposes — most notably when the legal question of tribal sovereignty is pursued — Alaska has held firm to the principle that all Alaskans are subject to a single law and that village tribes lack legal authority. Yet in practice the history of Alaska bush justice has been to employ informal, extralegal approaches until formal law could muster sufficient resources to intervene and displace informal law.This paper describes the tension between official and unofficial approaches to solving problems such as alcohol, gasoline sniffing, and substance abuse and the attendant social disorder in rural Alaska villages where the structures …
