Topics addressed include: justice innovations, initiatives in health and education to grant greater Aboriginal control, financing and intergovernmental relations, Aboriginal-municipal government relations, developing effective Aboriginal leadership, Métis self government aspirations, the intersection of women's rights and self-government, and international perspectives. Various self-government arrangements already in existence are examined including the establishment of Nunavut, the James Bay Agreement, Treaty Land Entitlement settlements, the Alberta Métis settlements, and many other land claims settlements that have granted Aboriginal communities greater control over their affairs.&quot;-</style></abstract><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">political science, First Nations</style></custom1><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/191241142</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humanities Bibliography</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
