Summary
:
An exploration of how the non-Native population views the Canadian North via four avenues: terminology, perception, circumpolar factors and habitability. First part deals with studies of the north, in the second part a geographic index helps define the north, and in the third part the author establishes links between the perception of the north and economic development by examining artistic production, territoriality, political structures, big business and defence.
