Dances with dependency : indigenous success through self-reliance / Calvin Helin.
This book will look at at least two areas critical to the long-term self-reliance of aboriginal people: the views and attitudes of aboriginal people themselves, and the question of effective economic integration. The indigenous population appears to be at one of the most critical junctures in their modern evolution. The rapidly-growing populations and burgeoning wealth creation potential are set against a backdrop of archaic and largely unsuitable governance structures, a dependency mindset that has been entrenched by government policy, and a host of formidable social pathologies.
