Produktbeschreibung
This volume represents the diverse scholarship taking place among a multidisciplinary graduate student network, the Circumpolar Students' Association, at the University of Albert. Academic peer-reviewed papers and extended abstracts comprise both theoretical and empirical papers on thesis and non-thesis related subjects from several disciplines. The resulting collection is varied, and touch on a wide range of themes: ethical research practices in indigenous communities, land use conflicts and development, cultural tourism and empowerment, climate change impacts on northern ecology and biodiversity, experiences in community-based research, health and environmental risk perception, socio-economic impacts of industrial development, wind energy potential in Yukon, contemporary language programs in Nunavut, the impact of industry on post-secondary education in the NWT, the integrity of reserve networks in addressing conservation issues, and a study on religious discourse of Cree Evangelical Christians in northern Alberta. The authors have diverse backgrounds, academic training, and perspectives; however, their common interest in northern issues regularly brings them together to exchange ideas concerning the changing north. Papers by: Micaela Brown; Heather Castleden; Suzanne de la Barre; Mark A. Edwards, Andrew E. Derocher, and John A. Nagy; Audrey R. Giles; Shelby Mitchell; Jean-Paul Pinard; Clint Westman, Michelle Daveluy, Liesel Knall, Marni Amirault, and Doreen Ducharme; Andrew Hodgkins; Shawn J. Leroux and Fiona K. A. Schmiegelow; and Clint Westman.

Autorenporträt
Professor Castleden's interests include community-based participatory research, Indigenous research, Indigenous-settler relations, environment and health interconnections, and ethics. Her research is interdisciplinary and collaborative, and strives to address environmental and social injustices and health inequities. She received her doctorate from the University of Alberta. Ryan Danby teaches in both the Department of Geography and the School of Environmental Studies at Queen's University. His research interests lie at the interface of ecology and geography and his work draws upon and contributes to the fields of biogeography, landscape ecology, and conservation biology. The geographical focus of his research is primarily the circumpolar north, and particularly northern Canada and Alaska.
