Indigenous Peoples and Environmental Change
The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) is a landmark law enacted in 1971 that settled land claims for Alaska Natives and established a framework for their rights to land and resources. This act was a response to the historical injustices faced by Indigenous peoples in Alaska, aiming to address issues of land dispossession and forced relocation while promoting economic development through the establishment of regional and village corporations.
