Indigenous Identity and Resistance: Researching the Diversity of Knowledge

Description

Indigenous Identity and Resistance brings together the work of Indigenous Studies scholars working in Canada, New Zealand and the Pacific in research conversations that transcend the imperial boundaries of the colonial nations by which they’re positioned. Their lucid, accessible, and thought-provoking essays provide a very important understanding of the ways by which Indigenous peoples are rearticulating their histories, knowledges, and the Indigenous self. Hana O’Regan discusses a programme of language regeneration initiated by members of her iwi, Kai Tahu. Chris Andersen describes the power of Canada’s colonial nation-state in constructing categories of indigeneity. Brendan Hokowhitu problematises the common discourses underpinning Indigenous resistance. Janine Hayward compares Indigenous political representation in Canada and New Zealand. That is only a snapshot of the forward-having a look research on this reader. Taken together, it heralds some new ways of fascinated about Indigenous Studies within the 21st Century.
