Defending the Land: Sovereignty and Forest Life in James Bay Cree Society (Cultural Survival Studies in Ethnicity and Change) Book

What are the social forces that are destructive to a native society and how are their leaders trying to overcome them? Many have already heard of the campaign of the Cree people to protect their forest way of life from the impact of hydro-electric development in northern Quebec; few have heard in any detail the outcome of this campaign and what it means for the future of indigenous societies.

Part of the Cultural Survival Series. Read More
