For your first couple of assignments, you are expected to critically engage with two academic journal articles and use them to analyze a case study of your choice involving Indigenous people protesting a specific economic development project in Canada.
Your first of two short (4 page double spaced) papers will involve a brief description of the historical context surrounding the protest, a summary of each of the academic sources and then a critical discussion of the two sources.
This guide will help you think about your topics and brainstorm some keywords that might be helpful to enter into the scholarly databases.
For projects based on Canadian topics, you may want to consider searching in the Canadian Business and Current Affairs database as well as other search tools provided by the library for important Canadian context.
