A Review of Traditional Environmental Knowledge: An Interdisciplinary Canadian Perspective
Over the past fifteen years there has been increasing interest in the nature and application of Traditional Environmental Knowledge (TEK) in Canada. This lias coincided with the settlement of land claims, the emergence of comanagement regimes, and the ascendancy of First Nation power and influence in formal decision making processes. Discourses on actual and potential applications of TEK in land and resource management are the focus of this paper…

Setting the Terms of Reference in Environmental Assessments: Canadian Nuclear Fuel Waste Management
Although ostensibly a technical issue, the environmental assessment of the proposed concept to dispose of nuclear fuel waste (NFW) deep in igneous rock of the Canadian Shield, caused considerable debate regarding the social, ethical, and political dimensions of the issue. Among other things, those embroiled in the debate, including government, industry and non-governmental organizations disagreed about how to define the problem of NFW management.…
Agricultural land protection in China: A case study of local governance in Zhejiang Province
Scale, context, and application of traditional knowledge of the Canadian north
There is strong contemporary interest in the application of traditional environmental knowledge (TEK) of physical environments and land-use patterns in northern Canada. This interest relates to land claims, land-use planning, cultural preservation, resource management, and environmental monitoring. The application of TEK to land and resource management is critically examined and a typology relating scale, user group, and the transformation of kno…
Social and Political Issues in Siting a Nuclear‐fuel Waste Disposal Facility in Ontario, Canada
An environmental assessment of the Canadian Nuclear Fuel Waste Disposal Concept was initiated in 1989. The primary purpose of the assessment is to determine the technical feasibility of burying nuclear‐fuel waste deep into the Canadian Shield. If deemed acceptable, a second phase of facility siting will commence. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the social and political dimensions of nuclear‐fuel waste management in Canada. It is contende…
The Application of Geographic Information Systems by First Nations and Government in Northern Canada
As a result of planning and resource development initiatives and the settlement of Native land claims in the Yukon and Northwest Territories, the need for Geographical Information Systems (GIS) was identified by numerous government and First Nation organizations. This paper will examine the pattern of GIS acquisition in the Canadian North and will identify and critically comment on recent GIS applications. It also focuses attention on the sources…
Canadian Energy Futures: Policy Scenarios and Public Preferences
Alternative Canadian energy futures as articulated by forecasting agencies and as perceived by a sample of the Albertan public are examined. The use of environmental world views as a conceptual framework facilitates the analyses of both the energy scenarios and public perspectives in an analogous manner in order to establish areas of congruence and disagreement. The results indicate that energy projections were consistent with the forecasting met…
