Thesis (M.A.)--University of Victoria (Canada), 2005.

This research was developed as a result of all the family and community conflicts that I have witnessed within Kwakwaka'wakw societies. From growing up in a Kwakwaka'wakw community, I get the message that one family against another, internal family feuds, conflict of interest, bands separating, drug and alcohol abuse, etc. are all starting to play a role in the Kwakwaka'wakw way of life. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine whether there are traditional approaches for resolving conflicts that can help in the present day situation. Through an Indigenous based methodology and interviews with Elders, I identified six Traditional Dispute Resolution Approaches (TDRA), which are lecturing/teaching, storytelling, shaming, humor, digitah (cleansing rituals) and the Potlatch. Through a complete analysis of all ten interviews, I outlined 5 short little steps that can be taken to return to those traditional approaches. These little steps are: acknowledging and recognizing anger; respect; identity, collectiveness; and communication and the Potlatch. The message I received from the Elders was that it is our legacy as Kwakwaka'wakw people to continue incorporating these TDRA's and little steps into today's societies. Through these, relationships, peace, balance and harmony may be maintained in all areas of life. A deep understanding and respect for who you are and where you come from, and sharing and showing appreciation towards your family and community can be some of the answers to all the complications and complexities that are part of the Kwakwaka'wakw Nation today.
