Is the Extraction of Fossil Mammoth Bone a Form of Traditional Nature Management?
Journal Title: Arctic and North - Year 2022, Vol 46, Issue 46
Abstract
This article is devoted to solving the question of whether it is possible to consider the extraction of mammoth bone as one of the types of traditional nature management of the indigenous peoples of the North. The solution to the problem is considered on the part of three criteria — the formation of a tradi-tion of economic activity within an ethnic group, the focus of economic activity on use for their own needs, a balanced approach ensuring sustainable environmental management. As a result, the author concludes that the extraction of mammoth bone is a type of activity that cannot be called fully consistent with the criteria for traditional nature management. At the same time, in the article, the author proposes to consider broader the concept of traditional nature management in the modern capitalist world, sup-plementing it with a view from the world-system analysis of the dichotomy of traditional and capitalist society.
