Editat de Denis Hlynka Autor Anthony Hlynka Editat de Oleh Gerusen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 iun 2005
The pace of technological, social, and environmental change in Canadas Arctic has profound effects on resource management and policy decisions. The chapters in this volume result from a project undertaken by the Ocean Management Research Network that examines the nature of Arctic environmental evolution and sustainability. From the pressures of development, technological advances, globalization and climate change to social and cultural life, this book attempts to define the nature of competing demands and assess their impact on the environment. These essays provide a detailed examination of ocean and coastal management in the Canadian north, exploring a wide range of issues critical to environmental stewardship, and breaking the ice to connect academics, government managers, policy-makers, aboriginal groups and industry.

Descriere
Translated from Anthony Hlynka's personal memoirs, this is the compelling story of the only sitting member of parliament of Ukrainian origin from 1940 to 1945. Representing the constituency of Vegreville, Alberta for the Social Credit party, Hlynka was a high-profile Member of Parliament who garnered much attention from the English language press and was instrumental in raising awareness of the plight of displaced persons following the Second World War.This book is a unique historical document drawn from his memoirs, press reports from the era, and material provided by Stephanie Hlynka, his widow.
