A. F. Kashevarov, the Russian -American Company and Alaska
A. F. KASHEVAROV, THE RUSSIAN-AMERICAN COMPANY, AND ALASKA CONSERVATION Ryan Tucker Jones Idaho State University, 935 W. Clark St., Pocatello, ID 83204; [email protected] ABSTRACT As Russia debated selling Alaska in the 1860s, A. F. Kashevarov, an Alaska Creole, published his thoughts about reforming the Russian-American Company (RAC). In several articles for the Russian naval journal Morskoi Sbornik, he described the RAC’s hunting policies and conservation measures. Kashevarov’s articles represent some of the few sources providing information on Russian-era tradi- tional ecological knowledge (TEK), even if his depth of knowledge concerning Aleut (Unangan) and Alutiiq environmental practices and conceptions is uncertain. Despite company claims of conserva- tion successes, in Kashevarov’s view the RAC had misunderstood the Alaska environment and mis- managed its fur resources. Claiming that marine mammals behaved unpredictably and were entwined in a complex ecology, Kashevarov insisted that company attempts to create zapusks (closed seasons) did not work. Instead, he proposed that only Alaska Natives understood the animals well enough to manage them and thus should be ceded control over Alaska’s environment. Though these radical claims were met with company derision, Kashevarov’s pleas for ecological sophistication and ecologi- cal justice provide some glimpse into the desires of Alaska Natives shortly before the colony’s demise. INTRODUCTION In the 1860s, as the Russian empire debated selling Alaska see Dmytryshyn et al. 1989:518–524), shed valuable light to the United States, some new, unexpected voices arose to on Alaska’s environmental history, the RAC’s conserva- challenge Russian-American Company (RAC) adminis- tion policies, and the history of Alaska Natives and hint trators and imperial officials and put forth their own plans at alternate paths not taken but that still seemed possi- for the colony. -

Farnham ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to explore the ways in which working-class Kānaka Hawai’i (Hawaiian) immigrants in the nineteenth century repurposed and repackaged precontact Hawai’i strategies of accommodation and resistance in their migration towards North America and particularly within California. The arrival of European naturalists, American missionaries, and foreign merchants in the Hawaiian Islands is frequently attributed for triggering this diaspora. However, little has been written about why Hawaiian immigrants themselves chose to migrate eastward across the Pacific or their reasons for permanent settlement in California. Like the ali’i on the Islands, Hawaiian commoners in the diaspora exercised agency in their accommodation and resistance to Pacific imperialism and colonialism as well. Blending labor history, religious history, and anthropology, this thesis adopts an interdisciplinary and ethnohistorical approach that utilizes Hawaiian-language newspapers, American missionary letters, and oral histories from California’s indigenous peoples. -
Eskimo Religion: a Look at Four Transitional Persons
ESKIMO RELIGION: A LOOK AT FOUR TRANSITIONAL PERSONS ARTHUR O. ROBERTS, George Fox College, Newberg, Oregon, U.S.A. ABSTRACT/RESUME This paper is concerned with four Alaskan Inuit leaders during a period of rapid, destabilizing change. The author feels that over a thirty year span from 1890 to 1920, these particular individuals were critical for the maintenance of Inuit cultural patterns. In part this was because of a recognition of Christian missionaries, but it was characterized as a creative accommodation by the Inuit to the substantially disfunctional white contact. Cet article s'intéresse à 4 leaders Inuit d'Alaska durant une période de changements rapides et déstabilisateurs. L'auteur a le sentiment que, pendant plus de 30 ans (de 1890 à 1920), ces individus critiquaient le maintien des schémas culturels Inuit. Cette attitude était partiellement due à la reconnaissance des missionnaires chrétiens mais elle était aussi caractéristique d’une accommodation créative des Inuit au contact considérablement destructurant des blancs. During a period of thirty years, roughly from 1890 to 1920, Eskimos of Northwest Alaska made a rapid transition to Christianity, abetted by missionary teachers who followed the commercial expansion of the West to its limits at the arctic edge of the Chuchi Sea. Christianization was markedly facilitated by certain Eskimo leaders, including Maniilaq, Uyagaq, Punginguhk, and Koaliruq, better known as Egaq. In my judgment these persons demonstrated a creative accommodation by the Eskimo to a generally disfunctional white contact. 90 ARTHUR O. ROBERTS My analysis and conclusions are drawn from research begun a decade ago, which issued in The Alaska Quaker Documents, (microfilmed, 1977, available in various libraries with Arctic or Quaker collections), and a monograph, Tomorrow is Growing Old: Stories of the Quakers in Alaska (Roberts, 1978). -
Native People in a Pacific World
Native People in a Pacific World: The Native Alaskan Encounter and Exchange with Native People of the Pacific Coast Gabe Chang-Deutsch 2,471 words Junior Research Paper The Unangan and Alutiiq peoples of Alaska worked in the fur trade in the early 1800s in Alaska, California and Hawaii. Their activities make us rethink the history of Native people and exploration, encounter and exchange. Most historical accounts focus on Native encounters with European people, but Native people also explored and met new Indigenous cultures. The early 1800s was a time of great global voyages and intermixing, from Captain Cook's Pacific voyages to the commercial fur trade in the eastern U.S to diverse workplaces in Atlantic world ports. The encounters and exchanges between and among Native people of the Pacific Coast are major part of this story. Relations between Native Alaskans, Native Californians and Hawaiians show how Native-to-Native encounters and exchanges were important in the creation of empire and the global economy. During the exploration of the Pacific coast in the early 1800s, Unangan and Alutiiq people created their own multicultural encounters and exchanges in the Pacific with Russian colonists, but most importantly with the indigenous people of Hawaii and California. By examining the religious and cultural exchanges with Russian fur traders in the Aleutian Islands, the creation of cosmopolitan domestic partnerships between different Native groups at Fort Ross and Native-to-Native artistic exchanges in Hawaii, we can see how Native-led events and ideas were integral to the growing importance of the Pacific and beginning an intercontinentally connected world. -

Courage is no doubt the notion to be stressed here3.
