Full textAbstract:
This article examines the legal and normative foundations of media content regulation in the borderless networked society. We explore the extent to which internet undertakings should be subject to state regulation, in light of Canada’s ongoing debates and legislative reform. We bring a cross-disciplinary perspective (from the subject fields of law; communications studies, in particular McLuhan’s now classic probes; international relations; and technology studies) to enable both policy and language analysis. We apply the concept of sovereignty to states (national cultural and digital sovereignty), media platforms (transnational sovereignty), and citizens (autonomy and personal data sovereignty) to examine the competing dynamics and interests that need to be considered and mediated. While there is growing awareness of the tensions between state and transnational media platform powers, the relationship between media content regulation and the collection of viewers’ personal data is relatively less explored. We analyse how future media content regulation needs to fully account for personal data extraction practices by transnational platforms and other media content undertakings. We posit national cultural sovereignty—a constant unfinished process and framework connecting the local to the global—as the enduring force and justification of media content regulation in Canada. The exercise of state sovereignty may be applied not so much to secure strict territorial borders and centralized power over citizens but to act as a mediating power to promote and protect citizens’ individual and collective interests, locally and globally.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines representations of polar cruise tourism in the Northwest Passage as climate change extends the geographic range of open waters and increases the number of ice-free days in the Canadian Arctic. It connects current cruise promotion to earlier exploration histories and investigates the paradoxes that arise in the drive to bear witness to climate change while accelerating its impacts through carbon-intensive travel. It also examines some of the ways that Franklin expedition tourism in particular is being used to reinforce claims of Canadian sovereignty over Arctic resources. Overall, the promotion of this kind of maritime tourism highlights many of the key fault lines between visitor expectations and geophysical and cultural realities in a changing North, raising doubts about whether expanded development of such tourism can succeed in creating climate change ambassadors. The article concludes that the potential for developing cross-cultural environmental justice solidarities depends in significant measure on the tourism industry’s greater inclusion of Inuit perspectives that understand the Arctic not merely as a place to travel through, but as a homeland of earth, sea, and the shifting ice between.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article presents a political discourse analysis of the People’s Republic of China’s (prc) narration of Taiwan through the cross-Strait epistolary series ‘Letters to Taiwanese Compatriots’ released between 1950 and 2019. This study aims to discern the prc’s intent for domestic and international communication in framing Taiwan’s sovereignty into its own narrative using cultural, ideological, economic, and military appeals. In so doing, it explores the connection between storytelling, political communication, and military operations as evolving through the decades, starting with the cross-Strait crises of the 1950s, China’s establishment of diplomatic relations with foreign countries in the 1970s and its global rise in the last three decades. In the final part, we will analyse the response and several New Year’s addresses by Tsai Ing-wen between 2019 and 2022. This article unravels a crucial difference between the two sides of the Strait, crystallised in the fabrication of a dissimilar understanding of their respective historical, political, and cultural identities.

Full textAbstract:
The local elites of Dayak Agabag are conscious of their community's position as minorities, which presents opportunities. As an Indonesian frontier people, the Dayak Agabag have formed solid social ties with the Murut Pensiangan, as a resident community in Malaysia, fostering cultural cohesion across national borders. These sociocultural ties are seen as a threat to sovereignty and nationalism, which, ironically, are often exploited by local elites for the benefit of frontier people. The Agabag's elites are using their minority status to advocate the development of modern-state infrastructure in their region. This article analyzes cultural rights challenges confronting the Dayak Agabag along the Indonesia-Malaysia border, aiming to comprehend the political role of Dayak Agabag elites in shaping affirmative policies for marginalized communities and their advocacy for human rights, shedding light on the movements of both the elite and the community in their quest for legitimacy. The ethnographic lens used in this article shows that the political agency of Dayak Agabag’s local elite created their own rule to counter the domination of the state spatiality to struggle for human rights as frontier people. This article describes how the local elites maintained their minority frontier people status, as it gave them access to political gain or privileges across state borders. The local agency of Dayak Agabag’s elite offers insight into how marginalized frontier people can leverage their political indigeneity power, obtain cultural rights, and maintain socially legitimate yet formally illegal cross-border mobility.

Full textAbstract:
This article sets out to rethink the dynamics of the migratory process under conditions of globalization. Two main models of migration and incorporation dominated academic and policy approaches in the late twentieth century: first, the settler model, according to which immigrants gradually integrated into economic and social relations, re-united or formed families and eventually became assimilated into the host society (sometimes over two or three generations); second, the temporary migration model, according to which migrant workers stayed in the host country for a limited period, and maintained their affiliation with their country of origin. Globalization, defined as a proliferation of cross-border flows and transnational networks, has changed the context for migration. New technologies of communication and transport allow frequent and multi-directional flows of people, ideas and cultural symbols. The erosion of nation-state sovereignty and autonomy weakens systems of border-control and migrant assimilation. The result is the transformation of the material and cultural practices associated with migration and community formation, and the blurring of boundaries between different categories of migrants. These trends will be illustrated through case-studies of a number of Asian and European immigration countries. It is important to re-think our understanding of the migratory process, to understand new forms of mobility and incorporation, particularly the emergence of transnational communities, multiple identities and multi-layered citizenship.

Full textAbstract:
The Minquiers and Écréhous reefs are located in different parts of the Gulf of St Malo between the British island of Jersey and the French mainland. As a part of the Bailiwick of Jersey, they are geographically very close to the international sea border between Jersey and France, and have had a history of disputed sovereignty. Due to their respective geographical locations and histories, the Minquiers and Écréhous are important sites for the field of Island Studies because of their existence as “border islands”. This article offers a study of these reefs in their spatial context of land and sea, discussing contemporary issues, including fishing, environmentalism and tourism, and offering cross perspectives in terms of their political, economic and cultural connections with Jersey and France. They exist in a context of immense spatial change with substantial tidal ebbs and flows, and between mainlands and historically contested maritime terrains. Such a study helps show how the Minquiers and Écréhous occupy an inbetween space (land, sea and nations), which resulted in international agreements in 2000 that confirmed both the maritime boundary separating France and Jersey, and the areas agreed on as common waters for fishing purposes within Jersey’s jurisdiction. In this setting, this paper offers a critical discussion on the nature of “islands inbetween” (including all the Channel Islands), where land and sea are interconnected as a result of nature, politics, historical fishing rights and leisure activities.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Bison (Bison bison) restoration has profound implications for ecological, economic and cultural domains, especially restoration into their former historic ranges. Climate change and climate variability, however, threaten sustainable restoration progress. The historic range of bison centered on the prairies of the Great Plains but spanned from Alaska to Mexico and from the Pacific coast to Florida and Pennsylvania, land which is now primarily privately held. Today, 63% of the 184,000 privately owned bison are located in the northern Great Plains, with 12,000 additional bison in the public sector, and 20,000 additional bison in each of the non-profit NGO and Tribal sectors. This multi-sectoral production-conservation system is referred to as the bison management system (BMS) and all sectors are intricately and economically linked through the production market and the cross-transferal of surplus animals. Bison are native ecological keystone species in native prairies and help to restore ecosystems. Their innate wallowing behavior produces shallow bare-soil depressions which create habitat for many other prairie-inhabiting species. Because bison create these wallows by excavating, urinating, and rolling, they also open the seed bank and concentrate nutrient inputs, and in turn increase plant biodiversity in the immediately adjacent landscape. Economically, the bison market has grown over the past 20 years, with bison market returns 1.5–3.3 times that of cattle. Finally, bison repopulation on Tribal lands increases food sovereignty, enhances economic stability, and revitalizes cultural connections to Tribal lands. The newly established Center of Excellence for Bison Studies at South Dakota State University aims to advance research, education, and outreach that address issues associated with each the ecological, economic, and cultural domains throughout the BMS, and is especially focused on restoration challenges associated with climate change and climate variability in conservation and production settings.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose: This study sought to examine the role of traditional knowledge in sustainable development. Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library. Findings: The findings reveal that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to the role of traditional knowledge in sustainable development. Preliminary empirical review revealed that traditional knowledge (TK) is a crucial asset for sustainable development, offering valuable insights and practices in resource management, biodiversity conservation, and climate change adaptation. Various case studies demonstrated that TK enhances soil health, biodiversity, and food security through traditional agricultural practices. Additionally, TK provides effective strategies for climate resilience and adaptive capacity. The study emphasized the need for integrating TK into modern sustainability practices, ensuring the active participation of indigenous communities in decision-making processes and protecting their intellectual property rights, thereby creating more inclusive and equitable sustainability policies. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Ecological Systems Theory, Cultural Theory of Risk and Resilience Theory may be used to anchor future studies on the role of traditional knowledge in sustainable development. This study emphasized integrating indigenous knowledge into sustainability theories, recognizing its holistic approach. It recommended creating inclusive decision-making platforms for indigenous communities, documenting and promoting traditional practices, and developing legal frameworks to protect intellectual property rights. The study contributed to theoretical models by proposing a systems-based perspective, offered practical insights by showcasing successful applications of traditional knowledge, and highlighted the need for policies that recognize the sovereignty of indigenous peoples and promote cross-cultural collaboration for sustainable development.

Full textAbstract:
How does one decolonize and reclaim the meanings of research and researcher, particularly in the context of Western research? Indigenous communities have long experienced oppression by Western researchers. Is it possible to build a collaborative research knowledge that is culturally appropriate, respectful, honoring, and careful of the Indigenous community? What are the challenges in Western research, researchers, and Western university methodology research training? How have ‘studies’ – critical anti-racist theory and practice, cross-cultural research methodology, critical perspectives on environmental justice, and land-based education – been incorporated into the university to disallow dissent? What can be done against this disallowance? According to Eve Tuck and K Wayne Yang’s (2012) suggestion, this article did not use the concept of decolonization as a substitute for ‘human rights’ or ‘social justice’, but as a demand of an Indigenous framework and a centering of Indigenous land, Indigenous sovereignty and Indigenous ways of thinking. This article discusses why both research and researcher increasingly require decolonization so that research can create a positive impact on the participants’ community, and conduct research ethically. This article is my personal decolonization and reclaiming story from 15 years of teaching, research and service activities with various Indigenous communities in various parts of the world. It presents a number of case studies of an intervention research project to exemplify the challenges in Western research training, and how decolonizing research training attempts to not only reclaim participants’ rights in the research but also to empower the researcher. I conclude by arguing that decolonizing research training creates more empathetic educators and researchers, transforming us for participants, and demonstrating how we can take responsibility for our research.

Full textAbstract:
Aim. The presented study aims to identify the components of national information sovereignty in the context of economic digitalization and to determine the most important directions of its formation in the modern geopolitical situation.Tasks. The authors consider approaches to understanding the essence of the concept of sovereignty and its specific derivatives, including economic sovereignty, technological sovereignty, etc.; build a scheme of terminology in the field of sovereignty in relation to the state and substantiate the place of information sovereignty on it; identify patterns in the evolution of the content of information sovereignty under the influence of various factors, including digitalization; formulate conditions and directions for further formation of information sovereignty in the modern geopolitical context.Methods. This study uses general scientific methods of cognition, as well as territorial, systemic, evolutionary, and institutional approaches to examine in various aspects the genesis and evolution of the content of the phenomenon and concept of national information sovereignty as a unity of technological and value components in the context of the digitalization of economic activity.Results. A scheme of terminology in the field of sovereignty in relation to the state is built, showing the ratio of different types of sovereignty, and the place of information sovereignty is substantiated. Major directions for the development of national sovereignty are identified with allowance for the trend of economic digitalization. The evolution of the content of information sovereignty under the influence of the development of digital technologies is traced. The structure and directions of further formation of information sovereignty in the modern geopolitical context are determined.Conclusions. The importance of national information sovereignty is increasing due to the globalization of information and communication interactions on the Internet, difficulties in marking the institutional boundaries of a particular state in the course of economic digitalization due to the cross-territoriality of digital technologies, and the complexity of the geopolitical situation as countries compete for technological leadership. The formation of Russia's information sovereignty in the context of digital transformation as a unity of its technological and value components is an important objective for ensuring national security, economic independence, and sustainable growth of the domestic economy in the current situation.

Amerena, Massimo. "Something before, that still remains: experiential treaty-making on Kulin Country." Thesis, 2020. https://vuir.vu.edu.au/42145/.
Full textAbstract:
Narrm, later named Port Phillip Bay by colonisers, shapes Aboriginal politics. This thesis is a place-based
examination of the forms of treaty-making practised around Narrm. It aims to deepen the understandings of
settler-Australians and historians of the political sophistication of the Kulin federation, a group of allied
Aboriginal nations whose Country covers what is now central Victoria, Australia. Drawing on Aboriginal oral
histories and colonial primary sources, as well as anthropological and archaeological scholarship, I use
knowledge of Kulin culture and philosophy to explore, imagine, and decolonise the history of their politics from
14,000 years ago to the end of 1835. The forms of treaty explored in this thesis have been continuously practised
for thousands of generations and exist within, and as an expression of, Kulin law. This thesis is divided into two
parts, each consisting of two chapters. Part I examines the Kulin’s pre-colonial traditions of treaty-making,
showing political relations were performed with Country, the non-human world and humans. Part II builds on
this and shows that when encountering settlers in 1835 the bayside Kulin continued, and evolved, their treatymaking traditions.
To describe these forms of Kulin political agreement-making, highlight Kulin agency and the political role of
women, I introduce the term experiential treaties. An experiential treaty exists within the Indigenous oral
tradition and is a political accord between a sovereign Aboriginal group and another party, be they a
neighbouring Aboriginal clan, a refugee, a group of settlers as guests, or the non-human world of Country and
animals. Exploring the Kulin world through experiential treaties centres Aboriginal political agency and selfdetermination. It is important to highlight that the practice of treaty-making does not have to include the modern
or colonial settler-state. Experiential treaties are characterised by reciprocity and repetition, as they require
iterative renewal through personal interactions between host and guest.
With an imaginative approach based on Greg Dening’s historical methodology, I explore experiential treatymaking on Kulin country to decolonise Victorian history and highlight the silences and absences within current
revisionist historiography of 1835. Rather than analyse the founding of Melbourne, I turn to the underresearched and unacknowledged political agency of the Waddawurrung living around present-day Geelong.
Through exploring interactions with John Batman and his crew, I examine the exclusion of women from the
narrative of 1835. Re-interpreting the political relations between the Waddawurrung and settlers camped at
Indented Head shows that Kulin political traditions were continued, not disrupted, through what I term the
Geelong Treaty based on the principle of iterative renewal and reciprocity.
This thesis has significance in expanding the narrative of 1835 to include Kulin women and the Waddawurrung,
but it also gives new depth to understandings of modern treaty-making and Indigenous activism in Victoria. As
Wiradjuri legal scholar Mark McMillan states on the history and custom of Indigenous treaty-making: “There
was something before, that still remains”.
