Relational Accountability to All Our Relations. Editorial.

Wilson, Stan; Wilson, Peggy

Canadian Journal of Native Education, v22 n2 p155-58 1998

In analyzing Native researchers' experiences, a world view emerges that is distinct from that of the mainstream culture. Referred to as relational accountability, this Indigenous world view holds individual responsibility for actions to be in relation to all living organisms. The web of relationships between all organisms ties the universe together and must be respected and honored. (TD)
