About this Web Site

This web site was largely researched, written, marked-up, programmed and maintained by one individual, Dr. Alx Dark, an anthropologist who studies the politics of land and treaty rights. His work has particularly focused on the negotiation of treaties in British Columbia and the environmental politics of First Nations land rights. In the spring of 2001 Alx kindly donated the NAE site to the National Library for Science and the Environment, where it is now managed by the Minority Communities Program of the National Council for Science and the Environment.

In addition to Alx, thanks also goes to Dr. Alan D. Thornhill of The Nature Conservancy for his early support and assistance to the NAE when he housed it at his Center for Conservation Biology Network.
