The third aspect of the governance portion of my unit on Circles, Architecture and Government (starting with Ancient Greece and working forward) and one that I didn't think about until now, is how to incorporate traditional Aboriginal decision making and governance, but it's one that I think needs to be included and is a vital link between ancient democracy and modern democracy and how Canada is governed now.
I'm going to have my students do some research and think about the sharing circle model.
I've found a couple of useful links as well.
Such as
this one from Canadiana.ca
And a
website about First Nations governance today because Aboriginal culture did not stop when Canada was "discovered" by Europeans.
