1. Comprehensive Land Claims as Structures of Accommodation? (A. Grimshaw)
Definition of Structure of Accommodation
Arrangements put in place to keep within manageable limits the conflict (actual or potential) that exists between two sectors of the population which stand in a relationship of subordination-superordination
Grimshaw’s Theory
Structs. of Accom. are inherently unstable, eventually lose their viability, and inevitably break down.
Why?
Relationship becomes contested terrain in various arenas. Subordinant group seeks a new accommodation involving a realignment of the power relationship.
