Aboriginal Self-determination and Social Housing in Urban Canada: A Story of Convergence and Divergence
研究了1970-1980年代加拿大社会住房与原住民自决政策如何共同发展,以及1993年后两者分化的现状,指出仅靠自决无法解决原住民住房问题,需结合全民可负担住房目标。
The right to adequate and affordable housing was pursued in Canadian policy during the 1970s and 1980s. The right of self-determination has been re-asserted by Aboriginal peoples since the 1970s, including in urban communities. The trajectories of social housing and Aboriginal self-determination were institutionalised together during the 1970s and 1980s. Such has not been the case since 1993. Self-determination in urban housing initiatives will not on its own rectify Aboriginal housing need, but must be paired with a common pursuit of adequate and affordable housing for all Canadians.
