People across Canada's North have created vibrant community
institutions to serve a wide range of social and economic needs.
Neither state-driven nor profit-oriented, these organizations form
a relatively under-studied third sector of the economy. Researchers
from the Social Economy Research Network of Northern Canada explore
this sector through fifteen case studies, encompassing artistic,
recreational, cultural, political, business, and economic
development organizations that are crucial to the health and
vitality of their communities. Care, Cooperation and Activism in
Canada's Northern Social Economy shows the innovative diversity and
utter necessity of home-grown institutions in communities across
Labrador, Nunatsiavut, Nunavik, Nunavut, Northwest Territories, and
Yukon. Readers, researchers, and students interested in social
economy, Aboriginal studies, and northern communities will find
much to enjoy and value in this book. Contributors: Frances Abele,
