  • Remaking research relationality

    Open AccessJanessa Esquible, Avery Hoffman et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2025

    This paper presents methodological research approaches utilised with Indigenous communities in the Kuskokwim Region of southwestern Alaska. The project is situated in the communities of Kongiganak, Quinhagak, Bethel, Aniak, and McGrath, spanning the Kuskokwim Bay and Kuskokwim River, and with Alaska Native Peoples who have been Salmon Peoples and stewards of their ancestral homelands since time immemorial. We specifically expand upon methodologie…

  • Value change debt as a window of opportunity for transformative change

    Open AccessSilja Zimmermann, Brian J Dermody et al.ARTICLESustainability Science2025Referencias: 5

    Arctic Indigenous food systems are essential to the survival of local communities, but face significant challenges due to environmental, economic, and social pressures. The objective of this study is to elicit values of the mixed Indigenous food system on St. Paul Island, Alaska, and understand their potential as deep leverage points for transformative change in the context of their historical co-evolution with the local food system. To achieve t…

  • Immeasurable sovereignty

    Open AccessRachel Donkersloot, Harmony Wayner et al.ARTICLEConservation Ecology2025

    Well-being and equity are increasingly identified as integral to environmental governance and improved sustainability outcomes. Greater consideration of these dimensions has generated calls for more data and new methodologies capable of collecting, evaluating, and converting social and cultural data into formats deemed more useful to decision makers. These efforts expose gaps and challenges related to an over reliance on quantitative data, especi…

  • Engaging formal and informal institutions for stewardship of rockfish fisheries in the Gulf of Alaska

    Open AccessJesse Y Gordon, Anne H Beaudreau et al.ARTICLEMarine Policy2022

    Examining relationships between formal and informal institutions for governing small-scale fisheries may reveal pathways for effectively engaging resource users in management. This study explored formal and informal institutions for management of rockfish (Sebastes spp.) fisheries in the Gulf of Alaska. Forty-three experts (fishers and agency staff) were interviewed about their engagement with rockfish management. We analyzed interactions and gap…

  • Kin, community, and diverse rural economies

    Open AccessRachel Donkersloot, Jesse Coleman et al.ARTICLEMarine Policy2020

    The challenge of designing institutions and resource policy for ecosystem and social resilience in rural and small-scale fisheries is receiving renewed attention in Alaska and elsewhere. Many rural and Indigenous fishing communities have been negatively impacted by modern resource allocation and management regimes that restrict and privatize fishery access through the creation of individual property rights. This article draws on ethnographic and …

  • Political ecology and decolonial research

    Open AccessCharlene Apok, Charlotte Ambrozek et al.ARTICLEJournal of Political Ecology2020Citada por: 4

    Environmental social science research designs have shifted over the past several decades to include an increased commitment to multi-, inter-, and transdisciplinary team-based work that have had dual but complementary foci. These address power and equity in the substantive aspects of research, and also to adopt more engaged forms of practice, including decolonial approaches. The fields of political ecology, human geography, and environmental anth…

  • Pacific Salmon in the Rapidly Changing Arctic

    Open AccessCourtney Carothers, Todd L Sformo et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2019

    One of the most pervasive signals of global climate change is altered patterns of distribution with trends towards poleward shifts of species. While habitat loss and destruction has severed connections between people and salmon in many locales, salmon fisheries in the high Arctic are just beginning to develop. To explore these emergent connections, we gathered local knowledge about Pacific salmon and emerging subsistence salmon fisheries in the B…

  • Fisheries Privatization and the Remaking of Fishery Systems

    Open AccessCourtney Carothers, Catherine ChambersARTICLEEnvironment and Society2012Citada por: 13

    Th is article draws on directed ethnographic research and a review of lit- erature to explore how the commodifi cation of fi shing rights discursively and materi- ally remakes human-marine relationships across diverse regions. It traces the history of dominant economic theories that promote the privatization of fi shing access for maximizing potential profi ts. It describes more recent discursive trends that link the ecological health of the worl…

  • Equity and Access to Fishing Rights

    Courtney CarothersARTICLEHuman Organization2011

    The right to fish has been privatized for most commercial fisheries in Alaska. Policies that limit and commodify fishing rights have had disproportionately negative effects on certain communities and certain groups of participants. For a complex set of reasons, small, remote, primarily indigenous fishing communities in Alaska tend to be disadvantaged by the switch to privatized fishing rights. The Community Quota Program implemented in the Gulf o…
