Economic Development Among First Nations: A Contingency Perspective [Robert Brent Anderson]

“This dissertation explores the economic development objectives and strategies of the First Nations in Canada with three objectives: (i) identify their approach to development, (ii) develop a theoretical perspective capable of providing insight into this approach, and (iii) investigate the activities of First Nations in Saskatchewan to determine if they are consistent with the expected characteristics of the First Nations’ development approach and the proposed theoretical perspective.”
