Language Dilemmas in Alaska.
Scollon, Ron; Scollon, Suzanne
Society, v20 n4 p77-81 May-Jun 1983
In our framing of Alaskan history, Alaska natives are perceived as just one more aspect of the untamed wilderness to be dealt with. The problem of language for these groups is viewed as one of developing a successful, institutionalized relationship to English speaking society, assuming that they must participate. (Author/GC)
