Modern Food Sharing Networks and Community Integration in the Central Canadian Arctic
From June 1992 to July 1993, research on wildlife harvesting and subsistence was conducted among a sample of householders in the Inuit community of Holman. In an earlier paper, the authors examined the involvement of younger Inuit in subsistence hunting, noting that despite the sweeping political, social, and economic changes that have been experienced in Holman and across the Canadian North, hunting remained an important sociocultural and econom…
The Northern Copper Inuit
Blood on the Ice
Since the 1970s, the pace of social, economic, and political change has accelerated throughout the Canadian Arctic. In the Copper Inuit community of Holman, change has been accompanied by an increase in recreational facilities and activities organized by the local Hamlet Council and paid for by the Government of the Northwest Territories. Recreational involvement, primarily in the form of competitive team sports like hockey, provides a valuable o…

The Best Part of Life
This paper examines the economic adaptations and subsistence hunting involvement of households between the ages of 20 and 35 in the Copper Inuit community of Holman. Social, economic, and political changes throughout the Canadian Arctic have made it impossible for young adults to pursue the same mixed economic strategies as previous generations. A general decrease in subsistence hunting involvement is characteristic of the younger generation. Nev…
The Rise of the Leisure Class
Gender-Role Preference, Gender Identity, and Gender Socialization among Contemporary Inuit Youth
Natkusiak (ca. 1885-1947)
Few Inuit have displayed the same wanderlust and indefatigable spirit of exploration as the Alaskan Inupiat Natkusiak. As Vilhjalmur Stefansson's primary guide and travelling companion on the noted explorer's two major arctic expeditions, the Stefansson-Anderson Expedition of 1908-12 and the Canadian Arctic Expedition of 1913-18, Natkusiak logged thousands of miles by foot, ship and dog sled. While Stefansson provides few details of Natkusiak's p…

Birth seasonality, photoperiod, and social change in the Central Canadian Arctic
The Iñupiat and Arctic Alaska
The Rise of Adolescence
Acculturative changes that have occurred throughout the North American Arctic in recent decades have had a profound effect upon Inuit teenagers and young adults. While social change has resulted in significant and obvious modifications in the economic, political, and material infrastructure of Inuit society, it has also led to more subtle changes in socialization practices and in the patterning and sequencing of traditional Inuit life stages. Res…

Inuit Natality Rhythms in the Central Canadian Arctic
Seasonal variation in human natality is examined over a period of several decades for an isolated Inuit settlement in the central Canadian Arctic. The results substantiate earlier reports of the existence of a birth season in the first half of the year. The 2-decade period coinciding with the gradual concentration of the regional population into the settlement experienced a temporary disruption of this traditional rhythmic pattern. Family plannin…
Seasonal Variation and Interpersonal Conflict in the Central Canadian Arctic
ethnographic data gathered through participant-observation, this paper will report actual offense data obtained from the local detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. It will be shown that conflict seasonality in the settlement of Holman Island is generated from a complex interaction between cultural institutions and environmental conditions. Since social and economic adjustments to environmental change play a determinant role in local c…
Determinants of Attitudes Toward City Police
This paper reports the results of a survey of attitudes toward police and police service among 273 citizens in 4 neighborhoods in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Extensive socioeconomic and personal history data were collected for all individuals. Results indicate that personal history. particularly respondents’perceptions of the way in which specific officers have related to them personally in previous encounters, is a more significant determinant of …

Abelam yam beliefs and sociorhythmicity
The Western Abelam of Papua New Guinea display an annual cycle of social conflicts and births which is a function of a system of ritual beliefs involved in the growing of ceremonial yams. This sociorhythmic ritual complex involves adherence to various taboos which encourage a 6-month period in which social conflict is avoided and sexual activity is markedly curtailed. Conflict case studies and demographic data collected from one village over a 15…
