• catalog abstract ""Aimed at three main constituencies - Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal social scientists, government and Aboriginal policy makers, and Aboriginal communities - this book utilizes recent research to argue for greater cooperation among these distinctive research communities. It proposes to build bridges and start a dialogue of shared knowledge that will improve the quality of current research agendas and stimulate positive social development in Aboriginal communities. With this end in view, Aboriginal Conditions demonstrates how this knowledge partnership provides the best foundation for creating equitable and sound public policy." "A vital addition to fields of public policy and Native studies, Aboriginal Conditions will be welcomed by academics, social scientists, and policy makers alike."--Jacket.".
