handle is hein.journals/geojaf11 and id is 1 raw text is: Georgetown Journal of International Affairs WINTER/SPRING 2010, VOLUME XI, NUMBER I I Editors' Note Forum: Sacred Earth 3 Introduction ALAN TIDWELL For the indigenous peoples of the world, native lands are inextricably tied to ideas of heritage, cul- ture, and livelihood. Their interests, however, must often compete with those of state governments and private industry. In locations as diverse as Canada, Kenya, and the South Pacific, disagreements are addressed through established institutions like local governments and national courts. Yet, in Indonesia, Siberia, and the Arctic, political stalemates drive indigenous groups to agitate for change through political mobilization. This Forum examines how the intimate links among indigenous peo- ples, land, and resources are imperiled. Consolidation of state power, modernization of economic and legal systems, and climate change all create challenges for indigenous peoples seeking to shape their own destines and protect their sacred earth. 7 Defining Indigenous Space: The Constitutional Development ofAboriginal Property and Resource Rights in Canada KEN COATES AND GREG POELZER 17 South Pacific Land: An Alternative Perspective on Tenure Traditions, Business, and Conflict SPIKE BOYDELL 27 Indigenous Politics, Economics, and Ecological Change in Siberia MARJORIE MANDELSTAM BALZER 37 An African Dilemma: Resolving Indigenous Conflicts in Kena ABRA LYMAN AND DARREN KEW 47 The Politics of Mines and Indigenous Rights: A Case Study ofthe GrasbergMine in Indonesia's Papua Province PATRICIA O'BRIEN 57 The Inuit, the State, and the Battle for the Arctic BARRY ZELLEN Politics& Diplomacy 65 Transforming an Unrealistic War: Bringing the UN Back into Afghanistan LUIS PERAL Despite recognition by military leaders of a required shift to population security in Afghanistan, only the United Nations possesses the relevant expertise to lead the more crucial aspects of interna- tional operations there, including anti-corruption efforts, improved local governance, and security sector reform.
