Description

The original version of this analysis of Alaska Native population was made in 1964 at the request of the then area director of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Robert L. Bennett, for guides in discussing bureau goals in relation to the new Economic Opportunity Act. The purposes were to provide a basis for estimating the current (1964) Native population by areas to identify and measure the underlying dynamics of the population change, and to make projections by areas in the year 2000 that could be related to projections of anticipated new employment and relocation requirements. The resulting analysis was updated and appeared in revised form in December 1967 as a part of a broader analysis of economic and social guidelines for the Washington·Alaska Regional Medical Program. The present version was produced not in response to such specific requests, but because of the need for a new look at Alaska's Native population and its future.
