About the Book

The history of European colonization has been based upon the marginalization of "first peoples". This legacy is most apparent in the outback of Australia and Canada, the remote areas which have harboured the Aboriginal, Indian and Inuit peoples. Modernization, the "boom and bust" model of state and private development, and the partial and biased aid provided by the state have eroded many communities and the holistic beliefs which underpin them. This book explores the past, present and future of these peoples, their treatment by the "West" and the strategies of development left open to them.

Review :
..."a rich and detailed discussion of various development models... ...this book does provide a thorough historical report on development in the two regions, and should certainly be required reading for anyone considering comparative research in [Canada and Australia]." -"Transcultural Psychiatry "Young's work compares contemporary Canada and Australia vis-a-vis remote area economic development and its impact on aboriginal peoples.... Young concludes that achievement of sustainable development for aboriginal people can occur only when a secure land base, e.g., Nunavut Canada, is in the hands of its original owners.." -"Choice "This is a lushly produced book, complete with many photographs, figures and tables. It demonstrates the value of international comparisons of Indigenous issues, and transcends academic disciplines. A geographer by training, Young focuses on the land and the relationship of Aboriginal peoples to it." -James Waldram, University Saskatchewan, "Journal of Political Ecology
