Walled-In: Arctic Housing and a Sociology of Walls

By Lisa-Jo K. van den Scott

In this ethnography of the contemporary lived experience of Inuit in Arviat, Nunavut, van den Scott examines the relationship between colonialism and the built environment. As she introduces a sociology of walls, she acknowledges how people in Arviat are both oppressed by their Western walls and perform resilience within them.
