Abstract. In 1977, the Inuit and the Innu in Labrador each submitted statements of intent to begin treaty negotiations with the federal and provincial governments under the federal comprehensive land claims process. On 22 January 2005, the Inuit, the federal government, and the province of Newfoundland and Labrador signed the Labrador Inuit Land Claims Agreement. The Innu, on the other hand, are nowhere near to completing their agreement. This paper seeks to explain why the Inuit were able to complete their agreement, whereas the Innu were not. It challenges the conventional explanation that an economic development project is a necessary condition for completing a treaty by arguing that a number of internal and external factors need to be taken into account.Résumé. En 1977, les Inuits ainsi que les Innus du Labrador ont respectivement annoncé leur intention de lancer des négociations en vue de conclure un traité avec les gouvernements fédéral et provincial en vertu du processus des recendications territoriales globales. Le 22 janvier 2005, les Inuits, le gouvernement fédéral et la province de Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador ont conclu l'Accord sur les revendications territoriales des Inuit du Labrador. Les Innus, de leur côté, sont encore loin d'une entente. Cet article cherche à expliquer pourquoi les Inuits ont pu signer un accord alors que les Innus n'y sont pas parvenus. L'article remet en question l'explication souvent avancée voulant qu'un projet de développement économique soit une condition nécessaire à l'achèvement d'une entente et soutient plutôt qu'un ensemble de facteurs intérieurs et extérieurs doivent être pris en compte.

Abstract As Dorais (1994) has indicated, the distinction between the concepts of cultural and ethnic identities are important for us to understand the identities of contemporary Canadian Inuit Although the Inuit themselves do not distinguish between these identities, I consider them to be useful analytical concepts. I argue that cultural identity is a tool for an Inuk to live with his fellow Inuit in daily life and that ethnic identity is a political tool especially for both urban and arctic Inuit to deal with others in multi-ethnic situations.

Abstract:
BackgroundPrevious research association increased levels of cultural continuity and decreased rates of youth suicide in First Nations communities. We investigate the relationship between cultural continuity and self-rated health looking specifically at Inuit living in the Canadian Arctic.MethodsThe Arctic Supplements of the Aboriginal Peoples Survey from years 2001 and 2006 were appended to explore the relationship between various measures of cultural continuity and self-rated health. These measures include access to government services in an Aboriginal language, Inuit cultural variables, community involvement and governance. Literature related to Inuit social determinants of health and health-related behaviours were used to build the models.ResultsAll measures of cultural continuity were shown to have a positive association with self-rated health for Inuit participants. Background and other control variables influenced the strength of the association but not the direction of the association. Access to services in an Aboriginal language, harvesting activities and government satisfaction were all significantly related to the odds of better health outcomes. Finally, the study contributes a baseline from a known data horizon against which future studies can assess changes and understand future impacts of changes.ConclusionThe Canadian government and other agencies should address health inequalities between Inuit and non-Inuit people through programmes designed to foster cultural continuity at a community level. Providing access to services in an Aboriginal language is a superficial way of promoting cultural alignment of these services; however, more inclusion of Inuit traditional knowledge is needed to have a positive influence on health.

Abstract:
During the last century, Nunavik’s Inuit population has experienced social transformations which have manifested themselves in a range of social issues. Nunavik lies north of the 55th parallel in Quebec, Canada and is one of four regions in Canada that comprise Inuit Nunaat (Inuvialuit, Nunatsiavut, Nunavik, and Nunavut) – Inuit homeland. The Inuit are one of three distinct Indigenous groups in Canada as defined by the Constitution Act, 1982, with distinct cultural heritage and language. Community Capability and Development in Nunavik, a collaborative project between McGill School of Social Work researchers and an Advisory Committee composed of representatives from key Inuit institutions, explored social issues and community assets in Nunavik. This study sought to (a) provide a forum for community members to voice issues important to them; (b) inform policy development prior to the vote on regional government; and (c) increase the growth of community linkages that support research dissemination via a network of researchers, community members and organizations.

Abstract:
AbstractParents’ perspectives on their children’s outdoor risky play behaviours influence their children’s adoption of safety strategies and their children’s approach to risky and dangerous situations (Brussoni & Olsen, 2011). Over the past decade, researchers have explored many Canadian mothers’ and fathers’ perspectives on this topic; however, to date, there has been a lack of research on Indigenous parents’ perspectives, particularly those of Inuit parents. This lack of research means that Inuit families are unaccounted for in research used to create and promote safety policies and practices in Canada. The present research commentary is the first to address the urgent need for research on northern Canadian Inuit parents’ perspectives on outdoor risky play. Specifically, outdoor risky play is defined, and Inuit children’s outdoor play experiences are compared to non-Inuit children’s experiences. Further, Inuit children’s experiences of injury are discussed to further situate the dire need to work with the most vulnerable population in Canada – Inuit – in child injury prevention research.

Ce travail de recherches en geopolitique se propose d'analyser les evolutions recentes de la region arctique canadienne. Particulierement au nord-quebec, et dans les actuels territoires du nord-ouest, des petits groupes inuit revendiquent aujourd'hui d'immenses territoires a leurs autorites de tutelles. Cette analyse est essentiellement consacree au processus d'autodetermination politique de la vaste region du nunavik (nord-quebec) et aux recentes revendications des inuit quebecois en matiere de partage des ressources regionales (renouvelables et non renouvelables), de droits environs mentaux, et de pouvoirs politiques a travers la mise en place d'institutions inuit inedites. Ces revendications territoriales emanant des inuit quebecois, contrarient desormais ouvertement le projet nationaliste quebecois. Cette analyse de geopolitique sur l'evolution actuelle du nunavik, tend a determiner le mecanisme de ce regionalisme arctique singulier. Le processus d'evolution du territoire du munavut est considere dans ce travail de recherches, a travers sa dimension politique, de "modele regional" pour le nunavik
This piece of research in geopolitics intends to analyse the recent evolutions of the canadian arctic region. Particularly in north quebec and in the present northwest territories, small inuit groups claim hudge territories from their governement authorities. This analysis is mainly devoted to the political process of self-government of the vast nunavik region and to the recent claims by quebec inuit in the matter of sharing regional resources, environmental rights and political powers, through the setting-up of original inuit institutions. Therefore, this claims openely go against the quebec nationalist project.

Abstract:
Décrire la nuit quotidienne des Inuit de l’Arctique canadien vivant au nord de la Terre de Baffin, donner à lire et à comprendre leurs points de vue sur l’espace-temps nocturne, tenter de cerner et d’analyser les singularités de cette nuit tant au niveau du vécu que des représentations, sans négliger les éléments comparatifs provenant d’autres aires culturelles, voilà les principaux objectifs assignés à cette recherche. L’attention à la parole inuit traverse l’ensemble de la recherche. Voie privilégiée sous divers aspects, elle l’inscrit dans une démarche de type ethnolinguistique. Organisée en trois parties, la thèse présente dans un premier temps le cadre nocturne : nuit arctique, nuit au quotidien, cosmogonies, notions d’obscurité et de lumière. Puis, le vécu de la nuit est analysé à l’état de veille : influences et propriétés attribuées à la nuit sur la naissance, la maladie et la mort, sur les déplacements et la chasse, sur les rituels, les cérémoniels et les fêtes, ainsi que sur la peur. Enfin, le vécu de la nuit est envisagé dans son versant « endormi » : ethnographie du sommeil, expériences oniriques et esquisse d’une théorie du sommeil. Ces analyses, menées dans une perspective diachronique, mettent en évidence l’existence, chez les Inuit, de complémentarités et de continuums qui marquent les couples nuit/jour et obscurité/ lumière, lesquels sont éloignés des schèmes binaires ou dualistes qui sont les nôtres, mais que la pensée inuit tend à rejeter. Au-delà de la spécificité inuit, le présent travail se veut une contribution à une réflexion comparative et pluridisciplinaire, amorcée il y a plusieurs années à l’Université Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense, sur ce que pourrait être une anthropologie de la nuit
The objectives of this work are to describe the daily night of the Inuit living in Northern Baffin Island (Nunavut, Arctic Canada), to allow a reading and understanding of the Inuit’ own points of view on nocturnal space-time, and hence to try to grasp and analyse the singularities of this night at the level of both experiences and representations. As often as possible, comparative data emanating from other cultural areas has been included. An emphasis is put on language and the spoken word, which permeates through all of the research, fitting it into an ethnolinguistic approach. Structured in three parts, the work presents first the nocturnal framework: Arctic night, day-to-day night, cosmogonies, notions of darkness and light. Then the night experience is analysed while in the state of wakefulness: influences and properties attributed to the night relating to birth, disease and death, to travelling and hunting, to rituals, ceremonies and festivals, and to fear. Finally the night experience is considered in the state of sleep: ethnography of sleep, dream experiences, sketching of a theory of sleep. These analyses, carried out diachronically, highlight the complementarities and continuums which characterize the night/day and darkness/light pairings, which do not match the binary or dualistic schemes that are our own and that Inuit thought tends to reject. Beyond its specificity to the Inuit, this work is also a contribution to a comparative and multidisciplinary reflection, started several years ago at the University Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense, on what could be an anthropology of the night

Abstract:
La présente recherche porte sur l’identification d’éléments pouvant permettre la création d’un environnement favorable à la protection de la sécurité humaine des communautés arctiques canadiennes. Cette étude se concentre sur le Nunavik, dont les communautés souffrent de mal-être et de nombreux risques liés au concept de sécurité humaine issus de traumatismes passés. Afin de déterminer s’il existe des utilisations de ce concept dans la politique arctique canadienne, cette recherche analyse les dynamiques relationnelles au sein des patrouilles de Rangers canadiens. Composées de réservistes presque exclusivement Autochtones, ces patrouilles sont un lieu de rencontre entre militaires et Inuit. Cette recherche exploratoire est le résultat de l’analyse d’un corpus de vingt-et-un entretiens et d’observations de terrains conduits en 2016 et 2017 au Québec. Selon nos données, les patrouilles de Rangers et de Rangers Juniors fonctionnent en se reposant notamment, et de façon importante, sur des relations équilibrées et respectueuses de la culture autochtone. Ce sont ces relations et cet équilibre qui permettent le renforcement de la sécurité humaine des communautés arctiques. D’après cette étude exploratoire, ce renforcement résulte des dynamiques relationnelles et du soutien apporté par les communautés arctiques à ces patrouilles. Le gouvernement canadien, via les patrouilles de Rangers canadiens et de Rangers Juniors canadiens, contribue donc indirectement au renforcement de la sécurité humaine de ses communautés arctiques québécoises
This research focuses on identifying elements that can create an enabling environment for the protection of human security in Canada's Arctic communities. This study focuses on Nunavik, whose communities suffer from malaise and from many risks related to the concept of human security. To determine if this concept is applied in Canadian Arctic domestic policy, this research analyzes relational dynamics within Canadian Ranger patrols. Canadian Rangers’ patrols are composed mainly of indigenous under the responsibility of non-indigenous instructors. This exploratory research result of an analysis of a corpus of twenty-one interviews and field observations conducted in 2016 and 2017 in Quebec. According to our data, Rangers and Junior Ranger patrols function thanks to balanced relationships respecting Aboriginal culture. These balanced relationships help strengthening the human security of Arctic communities. According to this exploratory study, this reinforcement results from the relational dynamics and the support provided by the Arctic communities to these patrols. The Canadian government, through Canadian Ranger and Canadian Junior Ranger patrols, is thus indirectly contributing to the enhancement of human security in its Arctic communities in Quebec

Abstract:
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is an emerging problem among Inuit of Circumpolar Countries. However, Canadian Inuit health surveillance data are limited. Data from the Nunavik Health Survey were used to evaluate the prevalence of overweight and obesity using the observed body mass index (BMIob) and the standardized BMI adjusted for sitting height (BMIstd). Also, data from Pangnirtung, Nunavut in the Baffin Region pilot health screening were used to evaluate anthropometric correlates of indices of insulin resistance. Obesity among the Nunavik study population (29.8%) is more prevalent than among general Canadians (23.1%), but the prevalence rates are more comparable when using BMIstd (21.5%). In Pangnirtung, anthropometric measures BMIob, BMIstd, waist circumference and percent body fat were associated with indices of insulin resistance/sensitivity (p ≤ 0.05). BMIstd showed similar results to BMIob and does not better predict the indices of insulin resistance/sensitivity.

Abstract:
The Arctic environment is changing rapidly. The purposes of this study were: (1) to predict the possible changes of diet composition and the subsequent changes in nutrient intakes as a result of environmental changes; (2) to explore the possibility of minimizing the contaminant exposure while maintaining the energy and nutrient intakes using liner modeling. It was found that a decrease of 10% or 50% of caribou or ringed seal will result in decreases for many key nutrients such as protein, zinc, and iron. It is theoretically feasible to minimize each contaminant intake while maintaining energy and nutrients at the levels of the CINE dietary survey in 2000 for Inuit in the Inuvialuit, Kitikmeot, and Kivalliq regions. However, it is theoretically infeasible for Inuit in the Labrador and Baffin regions under other hypothetical conditions. The modeling results would be useful for Inuit to make informed food choice decisions.

Introduction: Among Inuit, rates of diabetes are currently increasing. Objectives: To investigate the lifestyle factors associated with newly identified glucose intolerance (GI) among Inuit. Methods: A cross-sectional study of a subsample of 813 adults with a 2-hr oral glucose tolerance test who participated in the International Polar Year Inuit Health Survey (2007-2008). Those with pre-existing diabetes were excluded. Individual and dietary questionnaires and anthropometric measurements were also collected. Results: GI was associated with older age and a higher body mass index, %body fat, and waist circumference. Percent Energy protein and % Energy high-sugar drinks were positively associated with GI. Adjusting for those two aforementioned nutrients, %E traditional food was significantly protective (P<0.05). Fiber (g/d) was inversely and cholesterol (mg/d) was positively associated with risk for GI with a borderline significance (P< 0.10). Conclusion: These findings emphasize the need for dietary and lifestyle changes to prevent high rates of GI among Inuit.

Full text
Abstract:
Dans le milieu des années 1950, des expositions itinérantes d’art inuit contemporain sont envoyées sur plusieurs continents. Elles y connaissent une réception enthousiaste en raison du positionnement particulier que leur confère James A. Houston, à cheval sur les sphères conceptuelles du moderne et du supposé primitif. Seule la France, dont l’imaginaire collectif s’est pourtant largement enrichi de figures polaires depuis les missions d’apostolat et d’exploration, affiche alors une certaine défiance à l’endroit de cette nouvelle forme artistique. Cette thèse propose d’examiner les conditions de réceptions de l’art inuit contemporain dans un contexte hexagonal dominé jusque dans les années 1970 par le paradigme primitiviste, avant de se concentrer sur la multiplication des initiatives individuelles et collectives qui, depuis le début des années 1980, marquent un renouvellement du regard. Tout le long, l’art inuit est questionné dans sa faculté à être saisi comme un outil opératoire désignant une forme d’authenticité artistique ou culturelle. Un dernier pan s’intéresse au discours autochtone et aux jeux de double adresse auquel s’exercent les artistes inuit
From the middle of the 1950s, traveling exhibitions of Contemporary Inuit Art have been staged across several continents. These exhibitions had been enthusiastically received, thanks in large part to the particular positioning put forth by James A. Houston, which established Contemporary Inuit Art within the artistic constructs of primitivism and modernism. This warm welcome was in marked contrast to France's own reception of Inuit art. Even though its collective imaginary has been largely shaped by figures from the North Pole, a view that can be traced back to the first apostolic and exploratory missions of the continent, France remained the only country that showed a certain distrust towards this artistic expression. This thesis will examine the conditions by which Contemporary Inuit Art has been re-interpreted within a series of evolving historical contexts, beginning with the domination of the primitivist paradigm until the 1970s, and moving towards the multiplication of individual and collective projects from the early 1980s, a context which prevails to this day. Throughout this examination, the question of Contemporary Inuit Art's ability to be seen as a symbol of artistic and cultural authenticity will be addressed. The final chapter will deal with the notion of aboriginal discourse and the 'double address' mode of communication that Inuit artists tend to employ

Abstract:
This thesis characterizes the nutritional implications of climate change impacts on the traditional food system of Inuit in Nunavut, Canada. Both focus groups and food frequency questionnaires were used in collaboration with two communities to describe current climate change impacts on traditional food and define nutrient intake. Currently, both communities experience climate-related changes to important species which provide high levels of key nutrients. If climate changes continue to impact traditional food species, serious nutritional losses may occur unless healthy alternatives can be found. Policy should support Inuit communities to maintain optimal nutrition in the face of climate change.

Abstract:
This thesis studies the socio-political evolution of Nunavut, a proposed political entity in the Canadian Arctic, and tries to pinpoint its potential impact and influence for Canada, nationally and internationally. This study of political geography is done by way of discourse and content analysis of Inuit publications (Inuit Today, Nunavut Newsletters) and governmental documents (Hansard, the Gazette of Canada, etc). This analysis covers a time-period of 16 years, from the foundation of the Inuit Tapirisat of Canada (ITC) in 1971 to the last Conference of First Ministers on aboriginal rights in 1987. This time-period is subdivided into three segments of approximately 5 years: (1) Planning period (1971-76), (2) Preparation period (1976-82), (3) Negotiation period (1982-87). The introduction and conclusion of the thesis elaborate on the evolution of world affairs toward globalism and on the evolution of the Fourth World in this context.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the use and promotion of shamanic themes in contemporary Canadian Inuit art, being the principle venue in which Inuit identity is presented to non-Inuit in Canada and internationally. The image of Inuit identity promoted through the arts since the mid-twentieth century is arguably the product of non-Inuit state authorities, but Inuit artists themselves are increasingly asserting their voice in their arts and crafts, thereby challenging the image of Inuit identity to non-Inuit. This project first problematizes the history of contemporary Inuit art, where the construction of Inuit identity was heavily prescribed, and then turns to the shifts occurring in Inuit art to highlight the process of identity construction and the agency of Inuit within it. In the process, this project challenges the static conceptualization of minority identities in diverse societies by both state authorities and majority populations. This dissertation contends that Inuit art and identity are fluid concepts and there must be an emphasis made to permit for their fluidity, to avoid affirming a static minority identity in a diverse society, whether in the public or state forums. Consequently, the effort to assert the authenticity of these intangible concepts is contrary to the ideals of diversity and equality promoted in Canada.

Abstract:
The Hudson Bay Company (HBC) is a prominent enterprise that engaged in fur-trading commerce with various Indigenous nations across North America for most of its history. Though founded in 1670, it was only at in the late nineteenth century that HBC ventured into the Canadian Arctic, north of the 70th parallel. Starting in the 1910s, HBC workers erected several fur-trading posts on Arctic land, often with the help of Inuit individuals. In contrast to whalers mostly confined to their ships, fur traders built land-based architecture that enabled them to live in the Arctic year-round. They then became a new, distinct group of so-called northerners. Through their Western-based structures, fur traders incidentally exposed Inuit communities to diverse materials, building techniques, and cultural norms alien to local traditions—functionally, aesthetically and cosmologically. The fur trade thus ushered in significant transformations in the region’s material, spatialand ontological realities, notably in the built environment.By framing the architecture of HBC fur-trading posts as a cultural disrupter, this paper posits that the physical development of the fur trade in the Canadian Arctic played a pivotal role in instigating a wide-ranging process of process of transculturation in Inuit building practices. In this context, transculturation refers to a process whereby a tangible or intangible element from Western culture blends into the built environment historically associated with Inuit culture, and vice versa. Relying primarily on photographic records, the paper contends that this cultural crossing occurred not only to facilitate functional aspects of northerners’ daily life but also to align with the capitalist imperatives and shifting cultural norms associated with the fur trade industry. Furthermore, the paper suggests that transculturation, manifested in various ways, scales and seasons, contributed significantly to the cultural alienation of Inuit peoples, whose identity is intricately tied to their profound connection and reverence for the Arctic lands.

Abstract:
This research examines the dual challenge of addressing climatic and cultural considerations in architecture, specifically using prefabricated mass timber housing in the remote Inuit village of Ivujivik. Situated just below the Arctic Circle, this northernmost settlement in a Canadian province presents unique challenges of isolation at the edge of Nunavik in Nord-du-Québec. An island, not in a geographic sense, but through its remoteness as neither road nor rail link this community to North America’s industrial centers, necessitates strategic architectural planning. With a harbor navigable for only 20 days annually, prefabricated design solutions are necessitatedfor nearly all its building stock, where timing is essential to providing much-needed housing solutions to this distant part of the planet. A liminal condition and cultural heritage that has been disrupted by climate change.The study is based on projects from a third-year undergraduate architectural design studio conducted in spring 2021. This period of virtual learning due to Covid-19 led to an exploration of Ivujivik’s local ecology, resources, and climate, aligning architectural designs with the village’s cultural, infrastructural, and environmental needs. The remote learning context paralleled the village’s remoteness, making prefabrication and mass timber appealing solutions for addressing the housing crisis sustainably and culturally sensitively. Despite the lack of physical site visits and direct communication with local leaders, extensive secondary research provided comprehensiveinsights, including academic and multimedia sources and consultations with design experts.The paper advocates for a holistic architectural approach that harmonizes building science with indigenous cultural knowledge and local perspectives, demonstrating the broader implications and potential of sustainable architecture in remote indigenous settings.

Bahar Aydın, Kâmile. "Model of Autonomous-Related Singles Counseling in Collectivistic Cultures: The Turkey Model." In International Association of Cross Cultural Psychology Congress. International Association for Cross-Cultural Psychology, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.4087/ezin5166.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper the Model of Autonomous-Related Singles Counseling (MARSC) is introduced. MARSC is based on Kağıtçıbaşı's (1996) Autonomous-Related Self Model (ARSM) and on Aydın’s (2017, 2019) Singles Counseling Theory which have been developed in Turkey, a country that scores high on collectivism (Hofstede, 1980). In both models, the basic psychological needs of autonomy and relatedness are the key concepts. ARSM is a supplementary synthesis model that integrates two constructs assumed to be conflicting, and it is based on cross-cultural diversity: autonomy and relatedness. ARSM is prevalent in collectivistic cultures. Research conducted on diverse national and ethnic groups in Brazil, Estonia, Turkey, China, the Canadian Inuit, and immigrants in the United States of America and Europe, provides scientific evidence with regard to the ARSM. ARSM develops in the family model of psychological interdependence (FMPI) in collectivistic cultures. It involves a healthier combination of both autonomy and relatedness, which are essential psychological needs rather than relying on single autonomy or relatedness. Autonomy infers agency (social and cognitive) and volition, while relatedness infers emotional relations and support. Intervention is needed for ARSM to develop in a collectivistic culture. A single individual at MARSC is defined as someone who never married, got divorced, lives separately, or is widowed. MARSC has been developed to inspire prevention and intervention programs to develop the ARSM and related structures and functions (such as FMPI and autonomous-related single lifestyle). However, some environmental problems have become widespread and important in Turkey, therefore, the effectiveness of these psychological counseling programs also requires these problems to be resolved. Within the scope of Turkey-MARSC, these programs should be prepared to enhance efforts on developing autonomy in single individuals.
