Roots of Entanglement: Essays in the History of Native-Newcomer Relations

Description

Roots of Entanglement offers an historical exploration of the relationships between Indigenous peoples and European newcomers within the territory that may transform Canada. More than a few engagements between Indigenous peoples and the state are emphasized and questions are raised concerning the ways by which the past has been perceived and how the ones perceptions have shaped identity and, in turn, interaction both past and present.

Specific topics such as land, resources, treaties, laws, policies, and cultural politics are explored through a range of perspectives that reflect cutting-edge research within the field of Indigenous history. Editors Myra Rutherdale, Whitney Lackenbauer, and Kerry Abel have assembled an array of top scholars including luminaries such as Keith Carlson, Bill Waiser, Skip Ray, and Ken Coates. Roots of Entanglement is an instantaneous response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s call for a greater appreciation of the complexities of history within the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada.
