A basic course designed to acquaint the student with the area of Native Studies.

**68.152 Introduction to Native Studies II - April 1 - 25 - 1:30 - 4:00 PM - Monday to Thursday**
A basic course designed to acquaint the student with the area of Native Studies. Native Studies II is an overview of modern Aboriginal writing, drama, art, film making, philosophy and cosmologies.

**68.255 Evolutionary Self Gov’t I - April 1 - 25 - 1:30 - 4:00 PM - Monday to Thursday**
This course will examine the history and function of Native Human Services as it relates to self-determination. This course examines the historical development and jurisdictional changes of childcare services, educational services, and housing services. This course will also look at the more recent changes in these services that have led to greater self-determination.
**68.370 Seminar on Native Government - April 29 - May 23 - 1:30 - 4:00 PM - Monday to Thursday**
An examination, in seminar format, of Native government systems prior to Confederation during the 1867 to 1985 period, and since 1986. The course will consider indigenous systems at the time Canadian government authority was first established, self-government under the various Indian Acts of Canada, and recent initiatives involving the restoration of Native government systems outside the Indian Act.
**68.375 Indigenous Methodologies - June 24 - July 18 - 1:30 - 4:00 PM - Monday to Thursday**
The critique of Western research methodologies has been an important part of the decolonization project of Native Studies for some time. The role of imperialism in shaping these methodologies, and their impact on indigenous peoples, has been documented and continues to be studied. In recent years this work has been complemented by the development of indigenous research methodologies. We examine a few of these in this course, discussing their significance and value. We also explore several broader issues, such as the ethics of research involving indigenous peoples and some of the distinctive features of indigenous-centered research. Students will have the opportunity to select and evaluate a research project that makes some attempt to structure itself in a culturally informed and appropriate manner.
**68.393 Treaties and Treaty Making - June 24 - July 18 - 9:00 - 11:30 AM - Monday to Thursday**
Indigenous peoples of North America responded to the presence of foreigners on their lands by drawing on value systems, legal traditions and diplomatic protocols which were sharply at odds with those of the West. These were vividly expressed in their unique approaches to the nature and significance of treaty-making. This course focuses on a variety of indigenous perspectives on treaty making, as presented by indigenous legal scholars and elders. It also explores some of the central historical and contemporary treaties developed between First Nations and the state of Canada.
