  • Intimate Spirits of Places
    Intimate Spirits of Places Somewhere in the circumpolar Arctic, along the 55th parallel north, those who dwell there, established on the eastern shore of the Hudson Bay, are giving us a fragment of landscape. This book of photographs reveals the Inuit landscape sensibility of the inhabitants of Umiujaq. The community, one of many in Nunavik which have long been perceived through the exterior veil of the Canadian Great North, is today undergoing both intense media focus and increasing evolution of its landscapes. The clearly visible physical mutation of these northern landscapes of Quebec is mainly caused by factors such as global warming, urbanization in the form of coastal villages, the exploitation of natural resources as well as various projects to open up the area (infrastructure) and preserve its nature (national parks). At the same time, the practices of the indigenous population and the way they see their own landscapes have also changed : the people have sedentarized, they have developed new recreational habits while maintaining more traditional ones, and typically show a penchant for the consumption of foreign images seen on tv, in films or on the internet. This exogeneous production of images however still offers a representation of the landscape beauties of the Great North that fits its own value criteria. The interest of this photography collection gathered during a “Landscape” Photography Contest in Umiujaq in 2010 lies not only in the collection mode itself but also in the sensibility of expression it delivers. The “contest” mode is very common in Nunavik. Based on willing participation it allows personal emulation within a collective action.

  • Du Gaspillage Au Joyau : Patrimonialisation De La Rivière Nastapoka, Nunavik (1990-2015)
    Du gaspillage au joyau : patrimonialisation de la rivière Nastapoka, Nunavik (1990-2015) Mémoire Arielle Frenette Maîtrise en sciences géographiques - avec mémoire Maître en sciences géographiques (M. Sc. géogr.) Québec, Canada © Arielle Frenette, 2019 Du gaspillage au joyau Patrimonialisation de la rivière Nastapoka, Nunavik (1990-2015) Mémoire Arielle Frenette Sous la direction de : Étienne Berthold, directeur de recherche Najat Bhiry, codirectrice de recherche Résumé Le Nord québécois est aujourd’hui largement considéré par les chercheurs comme un territoire de représentations construites par une série de discours parfois contradictoires. La représentation territoriale se définit comme le sens donné à un territoire ou à un élément du territoire : l’étude de la géographie des représentations revêt donc une importance particulière dans le contexte actuel où les territoires nordiques québécois sont de plus en plus aménagés. Quelles représentations du territoire sous-tendent la mise en protection d’espaces naturels au Nunavik? Par l’étude de cas de l’inclusion du bassin versant de la rivière Nastapoka aux limites du Parc national Tursujuq, nous utilisons ici le concept de patrimoine afin de documenter les représentations du territoire nordique. En effet, en définissant le patrimoine comme un objet reconnu par la société comme ayant une valeur méritant d’être conservée, le patrimoine naturel peut être compris comme une forme de représentation territoriale. Par cette étude de cas, nous cherchons à répondre à la question suivante : est-ce que (et comment, le cas échéant) une représentation du territoire peut influencer les processus de mise en valeur du patrimoine? Nous procédons par une analyse de contenu appliquée aux discours pour caractériser, d’un point de vue critique, le processus de mise en patrimoine de la rivière Nastapoka, de 1990 à 2015.
