Hardcover. Condition: Good +. Dust Jacket Condition: very good. Hardcover. 8 3/4" X 5 3/4". xvii, 355pp. Very mild shelf wear to covers, corners, and edges of unclipped dust jacket. Bound in gray cloth over boards with spine lettered in silver. Very occasional inked underlining to pages. Binding is sound. ABOUT THIS BOOK: The common view of indigenous Arctic cultures, even among scholarly observers, has long been one of communities continually in ecological harmony with their natural environment. In Arctic Adaptations, Igor Krupnik dismisses the textbook notion of traditional societies as static. Using information from years of field research, interviews with native Siberians, and archaeological site visits, Krupnik demonstrates that these societies are characterized not by stability but by dynamism and significant evolutionary breaks. Their apparent state of ecological harmony is, in fact, a conscious survival strategy resulting from "a prolonged and therefore successful process of human adaptation in one of the most extreme inhabited environments in the world." As their physical and cultural environment has changed fluctuating reindeer and caribou herds, unpredictable weather patterns, introduction of firearms and better seacraft Arctic communities have adapted by developing distinctive subsistence practices, social structures, and ethics regarding utilization of natural resources. Krupnik's pioneering work represents a dynamic marriage of ethnography and ecology, and makes accessible to Western scholars crucial findings and archival data previously unavailable because of political and language barriers.(Publisher).

Arctic Crashes (Hardcover)
Language: English
Published by Smithsonian Books, Washington, 2020
ISBN 10: 1944466347 ISBN 13: 9781944466343
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. An exploration on how environmental factors like climate change and sea-ice levels affect Arctic species and can even lead to "crashes" in their populations.This volume is the key outcome of the Arctic Crashes project, "Arctic People and Animal Crashes- Human, Climate and Habitat Agency in the Anthropocene." This project was implemented during 2014-2016 by a team of scholars at the Smithsonian Institution's Arctic Studies Center in collaboration with their colleagues and indigenous partners from the U.S., Canada, Denmark, Greenland, and the Netherlands, and was supported by the Smithsonian Grand Challenges Consortia grant. The Arctic Crashes team introduced a new vision to explore human-animal-climate interactions, including rapid animal declines ("crashes") in the North that-unlike earlier top-down models that tied changes in species' abundance and ranges to alternating warmer and cooler, or high ice/low sea-ice regimes across the polar zone-analyzed such relations primarily at regional and local scale. This approach is closer to the Arctic peoples' traditional view that animals, like people, live in "tribes" and they could "come and go" according to their relations with the local human societies. As Arctic climate changes and climate/sea-ice/ecotone boundaries shift, we increasingly observe diverse responses by people and animals to environmental stress. In some species we can also document the sustained effects of commercial overexploitation during the seventeenth to twentieth centuries, which varied across subpopulations. The emerging record may be best approached as a series of localized human-animal disequilibria ("crashes") interpreted from different angles by population biologists, Arctic indigenous people, and anthropologists, rather than top-down climate-induced collapses. This new understanding also highlights varying rates of change-in the physical, animal, and human domains. Besides six keystone polar game species (the Pacific and Atlantic walrus, harbor seal, harp seal, bowhead whale, and caribou) the volume examines the status of polar bear and narwhal in the Canadian Arctic, Pribilof Island fur seal, and Atlantic cod in Greenland, presenting a diversity of historical, archaeological, evolutionary, and cultural/spiritual perspectives on Arctic "crashes." Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
