In this paper, I explore the socioeconomic relationships between Alaska Native harvesting practices, the laws that regulate those practices, and Alaska Native art. In the 21st century, indigenous residents of northwestern Alaska incorporate harvesting activities into their travels between small rural communities, regional centers, and larger Alaskan cities. These harvests efficiently coordinate their nutritional and cultural needs but require significant financial investments. State and federal “subsistence” laws were intended to regulate and protect Alaska Native hunting and fishing ways of life but hinder them in two ways. Subsistence laws prohibit financial gains from harvested foods and restrict hunting and fishing to specific locations. I argue that in the face of these regulatory challenges, Alaska Natives, in part, make and sell art as a way to ameliorate the disparities between subsistence laws and harvesting practices.

狩猎的艺术：将生存法与阿拉斯加的土著采伐方式协调起来

在本文中，我探讨了阿拉斯加土著人的采伐惯例，规范这些惯例的法律与阿拉斯加土著艺术之间的社会经济关系。在21世纪，阿拉斯加西北部的土著居民在小农村社区，区域中心和较大的阿拉斯加城市之间的旅行中融入了采伐活动。这些收成有效地协调了其营养和文化需求，但需要大量的财政投资。州和联邦的“生存”法律旨在规范和保护阿拉斯加土著人的狩猎和捕鱼生活方式，但从两个方面阻碍了它们的发展。生存法禁止从收获的食物中获利，并将狩猎和捕捞限制在特定地点。我认为面对这些监管挑战，阿拉斯加原住民部分地
