<i>Nunavut: Rethinking Political Culture</i> (review)

Ailsa Henderson is currently senior lecturer at the School of Social and Political Studies at the University of Edinburgh (UK). In this book she explores very carefully the emergence of a political culture in Nunavut, a new territory in the Canadian Arctic that was created in 1999. Nunavut, “our land” in Inuktitut, is a huge region stretching from Greenland to the Northwest Territories populated by about 30,000 residents, 85 percent of whom are Inuit beneficiaries of the Nunavut Land claim.
