This book provides a comprehensive survey of communications in the circumpolar region, focusing on the Canadian Arctic and sub-Arctic but also looking at the circumpolar North (Alaska, Siberia, Greenland, and the Nordic/Saami nations). Radio, television, magazines, newspapers, and web sites are all covered. As technologies and access improve, Aboriginal people are increasingly taking control of their own representation and consolidating their presence in northern media. Alia concludes that Canada will maintain its leadership in northern communications in the years ahead, given the topic's far-reaching importance and international context.Uncovering the northIndigenous peoples and mass mediaCanada, NorthernIndian mass mediaCanada, NorthernMass mediaCanada, NorthernIndigenous peoples and mass mediaIndian mass mediaMass media302.23/09719Alia Valerie1942-1600613MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811089503321Un3987791UNINA
