An epochal tragedy is taking place in our time with the
totalitarian destruction of Aboriginal cultures. In the face of
overwhelming odds, Aboriginal communities have shown remarkable
resources for creative resistance. In the process, they are
challenging the concept of democracy as it is practised in Canada.
In Like the Sound of a Drum, Peter Kulchyski brings new primary
research and contemporary political theory to the study of
Aboriginal politics in Denendeh and Nunavut. Part ethnography, part
theory, part narrative, Kulchyski uses first-hand interviews and
stories from the Dene communities of Fort Simpson and Fort Good
Hope in the Northwest Territories and the Inuit community of
Pangnirtung (Panniqtuuq), Nunavut, to draw out the strengths of
local cultures and their strategies for resistance to the imposed
political policies and structures of the State.
