Dr. Barret Weber
Thank-you for visiting my website. Feel free to email me at [email protected]
I have expertise in sociology, political geography, northern studies, political economy, gender and sexuality, and Canadian politics. I am also a keen advocate of learner-centred, social justice education.
In March 2013, I completed my Ph.D. in the Department of Sociology at the University of Alberta based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. My dissertation entitled The Politics of Development in Nunavut: Land Claims, Arctic Urbanization and Geopolitics (2013) focuses on the post-war political ideas of the Inuit in relation to the Canadian state in the Eastern Arctic. This includes a historically informed argument regarding the dramatic rise of Nunavut as a sub-national territory of Canada during this period.
I have taught sociology at various post-secondary education institutions in Alberta and was employed as a researcher with Parkland Institute, the Alberta Federation of Labour and, more recently, Edmonton Public Schools.
I am currently an Individualized Study Tutor (IST) at Athabasca University in the Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in labour relations.
