    Abstract. This paper examines the relationship of past and current federal structures for northern policy development to existing federal northern policy requirements. Current policy‐making machinery, arguably appropriate to an earlier era of northern development, now serves neither the interests of any constituency ‐ native or non‐native northerners or the northern resource development industry ‐ nor the national interest. On the basis of a critical analysis of present arrangements, available institutional options for reform are identified and assessed. Far‐reaching structural reforms are recommended including the abolition of the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development (DIAND). Sommaire. Les auteurs de cet exposĂ© examinent le rapport entre les structures fĂ©dĂ©rales, anciennes et prĂ©sentes, et les exigences actuelles de la politique fĂ©dĂ©rale dans le Nord. Le mĂ©canisme actuel de la dĂ©termination des politiques, qu'on pouvait justifier Ă  une Ă©poque plus ancienne du dĂ©veloppement du Nord, nesert plus maintenant ni les intĂ©rĂȘrs de groupes particuliers ‐ habitants du Nord, autochtones ou non, industries dĂ©veloppant ses ressources ‐ ni l'intĂ©rĂȘt national. A partir d'une analyse critique des dispositions actuelles, les auteurs identifient et Ă©valuent les options institutionnelles existantes. Ils recommandent des rĂ©formesde grande envergure, dont l'abolition du ministĂšre des Affaires indiennes et du Nord. Copyrigh
