Inuit Sovereignty

“it is impossible to make sense of the issues that trouble the relationship today without a clear understanding of the past . . . We simply cannot understand the depth of these issues or make sense of the current debate without a solid grasp of the shared history of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people on this continent.” Indian and Northern Affairs Canada.

“We hope that our [upcoming] Inuit Circumpolar Conference will initiate dialogue between the five Arctic coastal nations necessary to lead to formal agreements for safe and responsible Arctic oil and gas development.” we Inupiat feel that safe and responsible Arctic shelf resource development must be governed by a single set of rules established by international agreements. We feel that the special problems of the Arctic necessitate the development of an international set of Arctic policies if we Inupiat are to be able to develop trust and confidence in the oil industry’s ability to conduct Arctic shelf operations safely and responsibly.

How my research contribute to these aims: BSIA Mission: “To develop new solutions to humanity’s critical problems, to improve global governance now and in the future, and to contribute to enhancing the quality of people’s lives around the world.” How my research contribute to these aims: Contributes to finding governance solutions which takes into account the fact that the world is more complex than inter-state solutions allow. Contributes to the creation of effective, efficient, and equitable governance by understanding and accounting for the growing numbers of non-state actors which share power with states My publications focus on the fact that the Arctic is becoming a major global geopolitical region and as such sets out to contribute to the creation of innovative and creative solutions that will bring its governance up to speed with this politics. The Global Program at the Bassillie School seeks to find Possible solutions and to improve global governance. How doe my reserah contribute to these aims: 1) 2) That the world is more complex than interstate treaty making allows for effective governce The reason for this – is that growing numbers of non-state actors have serious power More efficient and effective governance in the Arctic. It will also accommodate for the growth and capacity of democratic goverance to take place. 3)

OF WHAT IS THIS AN INSTANCE?

Inuit Sovereignty

Russia symbolically staked its claim to billions of dollars worth of oil and gas reserves in the Arctic Ocean today when two mini submarines reached the seabed more than two and a half miles beneath the North Pole. “Russia raises stakes over Arctic seabed”

“At the recent Council Ministers meeting Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said, ‘It’s time to change the Arctic Council from a policy shaping to a policy making body.’ Secretary of Interior Ken Salazar sat at the head table with Secretary Clinton. Senator Lisa Murkowski and Lieutenant Governor Mead Treadwell were part of the U.S. delegation. It’s interesting to note that there were six Inuit sitting at the head table: including the Premier of Greenland, Kuupik Kleist, who headed the Danish delegation; and Canada’s Health Minister, Leona Aglukkaq, who headed the Canadian Delegation. It was a good day for Inuit.” Stotts, James. 20 August 2011. ‘Arctic Imperative: James Stotts, President – Inuit Circumpolar Council Alaska.’ Alaska Public Media. Online.
