Objective(s): To determine whether the Nunavut Agreement and the ensuing governmental autonomy will consolidate the traditional forms of leadership as seen in cooperatives or favour the development of private enterprise among Inuit; to determine the present forms of power (municipal, religious, economic) in Igloolik.
Project Description: The researcher will collect information on the different forms of Inuit political power, including municipal, religious and economic power, that are present in the community of Igloolik. He will also interview residents for their views on the origins of Inuit governance as well as their expectations of the Nunavut Agreement.
