Legal Culture Blindness And Canadian Indian Law, Conn N/A
Legal Culture Blindness And Canadian Indian Law, Conn N/A
Conference papers
This paper explores the special problems that specialists in federal Indian law in the United States face when they attempt to understand the legal position of indigenous peoples in Canada, make comparisons and offer assistance and advice. Although the roots of Canadian Indian law in British Crown policy are similar to those of the United States, the evolution of United States and Canadian Indian law occurred in patterns which were as distinctly different as has been the evolution of each country. Although some comparisons can be made between the two patterns of legal development, especially in the realm of policy …

Avoidance Of The Federal Acknowledgment Process: Two Hundred New Petitioners Waiting At The Door, Conn N/A
Avoidance Of The Federal Acknowledgment Process: Two Hundred New Petitioners Waiting At The Door, Conn N/A
Conference papers
Two hundred plus Native villages in Alaska may join the legion of Indian groups in the long line before the gates of the federal acknowledgment process established by Congress to alleviate and rationalize selection of those groups deserving of acknowledgment as Indian tribes. Such a possibility might well seem absurd to those who have studied the pre-contact or modern lifestyle of Alaska Indians, Inuit, Yup'ik and Aleut. Their significant commitment to subsistence, their political autonomy in pursuit of a modern Native land claims settlement, and their continuing residence in rural and traditional settings has long been a matter of both …

Smooth The Dying Pillow: Alaska Natives And Their Destruction [Original Paper], Stephen Conn
Smooth The Dying Pillow: Alaska Natives And Their Destruction [Original Paper], Stephen Conn
Conference papers
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.

A Descriptive Analysis Of Yakutat Tlingit Musical Style., Dorothy Morrison
A Descriptive Analysis Of Yakutat Tlingit Musical Style., Dorothy Morrison
Music
Ninety-nine songs from Yakutat, Alaska were analyzed in an effort to determine a musical style of the Gulf Coast Tlingit. Songs were grouped into seven categories from which general trends of style were deduced. Analysis, which was based on the transcriptions of David P. McAllester, included interval distribution, range, tone systems, weighted scales, melodic contour, tempo, duration and rest values, drumming patterns, formal structure, and song length. The transcriptions and data for drumming patterns, formal structure and song length were provided by McAllester in "Under Mount Saint Elias: The History and Culture of the Yakutat Tlingit," by Frederica de Laguna, …

Punishment In Pre-Colonial Indigenous Societies In North America [Original Paper], Stephen Conn
Punishment In Pre-Colonial Indigenous Societies In North America [Original Paper], Stephen Conn
Conference papers
Using northern Athabascan villages as examples, the author discusses how punishment in indigenous societies was traditionally interwoven with other societal functions. The influence of alcohol and the western legal process changed post-colonial societies and their methods of punishment because punishment decisions in indigenous societies were traditionally arrived at through group deliberation, whereas the western legal system works in a hierarchical fashion. The author concludes that imposition of western-style decision-making disrupted tradtional law ways in post-colonial society.
