| Summary: | A community-based model of tourism development - premised on current participatory theories - is examined as a culturally appropriate process of economic development in an Inuit community. This analysis intersects issues of research methodology and practice. This paper concludes by raising several policy-related and academic implications of doing development and research in the north. Cet article analyse un modèle communautaire de développement touristique dans une communauté inuit, basé sur des théories participatoires et considéré comme un processus approprié de développement économique. Cette analyse soulève des questions de méthodologie et de pratique anthropologiques. En conclusion, l'article met de l'avant plusieurs implications de la recherche dans le Grand Nord, liées à l'application de politiques et à la recherche académique. |
