Education and Community Development

The Collected Essays of Patrick J. Dubbs
The essays assembled in this collection reflect over 30 years of first hand observation of, and participation in Native education and rural development in Alaska.

Maori Makes a Difference: Human Resources for Maori Development
Barnhardt, Ray
Excerpt: "This paper was born out of six months of observation, reading, participation, and discussion as a visiting research fellow at the Centre for Maori Studies and Remeatch, University of Waikato, while on sabbatical leave from the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, during the 1984-85 academic year. The analysis presented in the paper, though focused on the Maori in New Zealand, is also influenced to a certain extent by my experience with similar issues in the context of Alaska Native development."

Alaska Federation of Natives
Excerpt: "The Alaska Federation of Natives was formed in October 1966, when more than 400 Alaska Natives representing 17 Native organizations gathered for a three-day conference to address Alaska Native aboriginal land rights."

Nonformal Educational Strategiesfor Rural Development in Native Alaska
Mike Gaffney
Excerpt: "This paper focuses on the relationship between rural education and development. It attempts to examine this relationship as it applies directly to the changing socio-economic conditions of an indigenous minority group whose cultural organization and traditions are different from the larger industrial society in which its members live."

Economic and Educational Development in Rural Alaska: A Human Resources Approach
Mike Gaffney
Excerpt: "After years of organizing a purposeful social movement, and after years of highly astute political maneuvering within the foremost corridors of American political power, on December 18, 1971, the Aleut, Eskimo, and Indian peoples of Alaska won what is perhaps the most comprehensive and far-reaching legal settlement of aboriginal claims to land and its resources yet witnessed in the comtemporary world-the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act."
