  • Government Outcomes for Nunatsiavut Government And
    EVOLVING GOVERNANCE: A COMPARATIVE CASE STUDY EXPLAINING POSITIVE SELF- GOVERNMENT OUTCOMES FOR NUNATSIAVUT GOVERNMENT AND THE MIAWPUKEK FIRST NATION _____________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Political Science Memorial University of Newfoundland _____________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts _____________ by Andrew Robert Merrell April, 2020 Evolving Governance Merrell 2 © 2020 Andrew Merrell, MA candidate, Memorial University of Newfoundland. This research was conducted with approval from the Interdisciplinary Committee on Ethics in Human Research (ICEHR), from the Nunatsiavut Research Centre in Nain, and from the Miawpukek Mi’kamawey Mawi’omi Band Council in Samiajij Miawpukek. Funding support was provided through a Memorial University of Newfoundland Graduate Research Fellowship and through a research assistantship and partnership under the Traditions and Transitions of Labrador Inuit Project, which holds a Partnership Grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). Principal Investigator: Tom Gordon. Evolving Governance Merrell 3 Abstract There are currently 27 indigenous groups with self-government agreements with the Government of Canada, and many more with other types of governance agreements. All have faced lengthy negotiation processes and institutional barriers in achieving success in self-government. Despite increasing interest in the topic, research on the impacts of self-government at the community level is still limited, and relatively little has been written about the evolution of self-government in Newfoundland and Labrador. Scholars and policymakers continue to debate the benefits of self-government. This thesis conducts a comparative analysis of two case studies. The first, Miawpukek First Nation, is a Mi’kmaq community on the island of Newfoundland that resembles a self-governing community in terms of policy but has no formal agreement.
