Relations between human beings and their environment are in peril, with mounting threats to both biological diversity of life on earth and cultural diversity of human communities. The peoples of the Circumpolar Arctic are at the forefront of these challenges and lead the way in seeking meaningful responses." "In Biocultural Diversity and Indigenous Ways of Knowing, author Karim-Aly Kassam positions the Arctic and sub-Arctic as a homeland rather than simply a frontier for resource exploitation. Kassam aims to empirically and theoretically illustrate the synthesis between the cultural and biological, using human ecology as a conceptual and analytical lens. Drawing on research carried out in partnership with indigenous northern communities, three case studies illustrate that subsistence hunting and gathering are not relics of an earlier era, but rather remain essential to both cultural diversity and to human survival." "This book deals with contemporary issues such as climate change, indigenous knowledge, and the impact of natural resource extraction. It is a narrative of community-based research, in the service of the communities for the benefit of the communities. It provides resource-based industry, policy makers, and students with an alternative way of engaging indigenous communities and transforming our perspective on conservation of ecological and cultural diversity."--BOOK JACKET. 001382072 530__ $$aAlso available in print version. 001382072 538__ $$aMode of access: World Wide Web. 001382072 650_0 $$aHuman ecology$$zArctic regions. 001382072 650_0 $$aIndigenous peoples$$zArctic regions. 001382072 650_0 $$aSubsistence economy$$zArctic regions$$vCase studies. 001382072 650_0 $$aBiodiversity conservation$$zArctic regions. 001382072 650_0 $$aCultural pluralism$$zArctic regions. 001382072 650_0 $$aTraditional ecological knowledge$$zArctic regions. 001382072 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001382072 7102_ $$aArctic Institute of North America. 001382072 7102_ $$aCanadian Electronic Library (Firm) 001382072 77608 $$iPrint version$$z9781552382530 001382072 830_0 $$aNorthern lights series ;$$v12. 001382072 830_0 $$aCanadian Electronic Library.$$pCanadian publishers collection. 001382072 852__ $$bebk 001382072 852_0 $$3Thumbnail cover image:$$uhttp://celarc.ca/covers/433/433971.jpg 001382072 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3280022$$zOnline Access 001382072 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1382072$$pGLOBAL_SET 001382072 980__ $$aBIB 001382072 980__ $$aEBOOK 001382072 982__ $$aEbook 001382072 983__ $$aOnline
