註釋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.
