Central Inuit Household Economies: Zooarchaeological, Environmental, and Historical Evidence from Outer Frobisher Bay, Baffin Island, Canada
A challenging piece of research that assesses the historical background to how the Inuit economy became integrated into the modern world. Drawing on a range of sources, including archaeology, oral history, ethnohistory and environmental evidence, Anne Henshaw looks in particular at changes in subsistence production in relation to colonial expansion and changing environmental conditions. The whaling industry, the introduction of firearms to hunting strategies and environmental degredation are just three of the issues discussed.
