 | Incorporating the Familiar: An Investigation into Legal Sensibilities in Nunavik Subjects: Inuit -- Legal status‚ laws‚ etc -- Quebec (Province) -- Nunavik; Justice‚ Administration of -- Quebec (Province) Nunavik; Ethological jurisprudence; Culture conflict -- Quebec (Province) -- Nunavik; Focusing on the delivery of justice in Inuit communities in northern Quebec, Incorporating the Familiar investigates the complexities and contradictions of accommodation between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal legal systems. Conflict between the two legal orders, Susan Drummond argues, is really more about incommensurability between underlying cultural codes. She uses legal pluralism as a springboard to reflect on wider questions of intercultural history, concepts of identity and belonging, and problems of communication across cultures and between men and women. |
