Significant aspects of acculturation history in the Canadian Arctic : analysis of the forces of Inuit and southern white interaction until mid-century : socio-cultural background to a government relocation...Z1-1991/1-41-179E-PDF

"The plan for this essay is to place the circumstances of the Inukjuammiut relocation to the High Arctic in the wider context of the socio-cultural realities which conditioned the thinking of those involved in the era of the 'fifties. To do this properly, further socio-historical depth is needed in understanding the cultures as they inter-related during the period of accelerated culture change which began in the meridian decade of this century. To understand the processes of Eastern Arctic acculturation over the period most directly involved, some basic concepts are needed analytically, and they will be set forth as the foundation and first task of this undertaking"--Intro., p. 3.
