  • Alaska Boundary Survey, Bill Rupe, and the Scottie
    KING GEORGE GOT DIARRHEA : THE YUKON -ALASKA BOUNDARY SURVEY , BILL RUPE , AND THE SCOTTIE CREEK DINEH Norman Alexander Easton Yukon College, Box 2799, 500 College Drive, Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, Canada Y1A 5K4; [email protected] ABSTRACT The imposition of the international boundary along the 141st meridian of longitude between Yukon and Alaska has separated the aboriginal Dineh of the region into two separate nation-states. This division holds serious implications for the continuity of identity and social relations between Native people across this border. This paper examines the history of the establishment of this border along its southern margin through the Scottie Creek valley, comparing the written record of the state surveyors with the oral history of the Scottie Creek Dineh. I argue that the evidence supports the notion that the Dineh of Scottie Creek, like elsewhere in the Yukon and Alaska, were both aware of and resistant to the implications of the boundary and refused to cede their rights to continued use and occupancy of both sides of the border. Concurrent with this history is that of William Rupe, the unacknowledged first trader in the Upper Tanana River basin, and his role in mediating the negotiations between gov- ernment surveyors and Dineh leaders. Despite the difficulties imposed by the border, Natives of the region continue to formulate a strong identity as Dineh, holding and practicing distinctive values and social relations that collectively are known as the Dineh Way. Keywords: Upper Tanana, aboriginal-state relations, 141st meridian, Yukon-Alaska history PRELUDE It is July 1997. I am atop Mount Dave, Yukon, just east guage.

  • The Role of Institutions in the Changing Arctic
    THE POLAR BEAR IN THE ROOM: THE ROLE OF INSTITUTIONS IN THE CHANGING ARCTIC A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE INTERSCHOOL HONORS PROGRAM IN INTERNATIONAL SECURITY STUDIES CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL SECURITY AND COOOPERATION FREEMAN SPOGLI INSTITUTE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDIES STANFORD UNIVERSITY BY ELLE STUART MAY 2014 ADVISORS: PROFESSOR KENNETH SCHULTZ AND COMMANDER DAVID SLAYTON Abstract This thesis focuses on the role of international institutions in the Arctic. Specifically, it examines the two main governance structures in the Arctic—the Arctic Council and the United Nations Law of the Seas Treaty (UNCLOS)—in light of the changing Arctic environment. It evaluates to what extent these two governance structures have been effective at keeping the peace in the Arctic, and whether this cooperation is likely to continue in the future. While the Arctic—and its institutions—are frequently cited as a model for geopolitical cooperation, this thesis finds that predictions that this cooperation will continue are overly optimistic. This conclusion is based on two overall findings. The first is that the Arctic Council, the preeminent forum for cooperation in the Arctic, is unlikely to adapt to upcoming issues, as it is limited by its primarily environmental mandate. The second argument concerns the role of UNCLOS, and finds that, despite its effectiveness in bringing states to the negotiation table for some territorial disputes, it has generally been unable to mandate long-term solutions. By showing the limitations of the Arctic Council and UNCLOS in regards to their ability to provide cooperative governance, this thesis questions the existing literature about the Arctic and raises the question of what other structures—perhaps economic or security related—are needed to ensure that the Arctic remains a peaceful sphere of cooperation in the future.

    Northern Exploration, Boundary Surveys, and Borderlands: Reports, Documents, and Maps from the United States Congressional Serial Set John D. Kawula Abstract: Significant interdisciplinary scholarship exists concerning the unique economic, social, and political culture of international border and frontier areas. Notable themes of Alaskan and northern Canadian history also include discovery, exploration, and boundary issues. Primary literature concerning these topics is dispersed in many sources. One such source, the United States Congressional Serial Set, has been re-indexed and digitized, allowing online access to the full text documents and high-resolution images of the accompanying maps and illustrative material. This version, covering the years 1817–1980, was searched for citations pertaining to the discovery, exploration, and boundaries of Alaska and northern Canada. Summary level bibliographic records were reviewed for all entries, represented by thirty- three subject and geographic index terms (nineteen northern expeditions as listed under the broad category of “Discovery and Exploration” plus fourteen additional subject and geographic terms selected from the cross-references and related topics presented by the software). Numerical counts and examples of complete citations are provided. Results illustrate the usefulness of the digitized Serial Set, available to patrons of numerous US and Canadian libraries, in researching these topics in a quick and efficient manner. The set also provides additional opportunities for northern research. Many of the explorations and surveys contain historical scientific data and observations that are difficult to extract from modern sources. Viewing northern affairs broadly, the set concerns the entire northern US border areas and their historical, political, military, and diplomatic relations with Canada.

  • Bourassa's Anniversary Speech Touched on Many of the Criticisms Directed at Him Over the Last Five Months
    Bourassa’s War: Henri Bourassa and the First World War by Geoff Keelan A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2015 © Geoff Keelan 2015 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation examines the perspective of French Canadian nationalist Henri Bourassa during the First World War from 1914-1918. Bourassa was one of the best-known voices rejecting the war’s purpose and value in Canada. He consistently offered detailed and in-depth analytical critiques of the war. He first accepted Canadian participation from August 1914 to January 1916, but his position gradually shifted from cautious support to outright rejection. This dissertation argues that Henri Bourassa has traditionally been understood as a domestic commentator in Canada, but during the war years he wrote in the pages of his newspaper Le Devoir to address a wide variety of international issues. He was one of a few Canadians who looked out to the world and interpreted global events for his readers. Historians have already recounted in detail his thoughts about the Ontario bilingual schools crisis, conscription, the December 1917 election, and the Easter Riots of 1918. This work examines Bourassa’s thoughts on diplomacy between the belligerent nations and that of Pope Benedict XV, international events like the Easter Rising in Ireland and the American entry into the war.
