"A compilation of the traditional knowledge of Inuit Elders guided by Inuit from across Nunavut, Uqalurait consists of thousands of quotations organized thematically to cover all aspects of traditional life. The book describes the seasonal rounds of four different cultural groups, illustrating that while Inuit across the land now known as Nunavut had much in common, there was also much to distinguish them from each other, living as they did in many small groups of people, each with its own territory and identity."--

Inuit Women is the definitive study of the Inuit during a time of rapid change.

"By means of a bottom-up approach involving cultural immersion, contextual, jurisprudential, and historical legal comparisons of Greenland and Nunavut, The Arctic Promise examines the forms, evolution, and scope of the right to autonomy in Arctic jurisdictions. Loukacheva argues that the right to autonomy should encompass or protect Inuit jurisdiction in legal systems and the administration of justice, and should allow the Inuit direct participation in international affairs where issues that affect their homelands are concerned. The Arctic Promise deals with areas of comparative constitutional law, international law, Aboriginal law, legal anthropology, political science, and international relations, using each to contribute to the understanding of the right to indigenous autonomy."--Jacket
