Indigeneity: Construction and Re/presentationThis powerful new book investigates the newly emergent racist epidemic in Australia within the perspective of race relations existing in other countries in which Indigenous Peoples had been and continued to be colonised by (ex)European Invaders. The fifteen chapters in this collection address the legacy and consequences of past colonialism and the techniques of power by which colonisation of indigenous peoples continues to be perpetuated. A number of them also examine and articulate strategies of resistance, self-empowerment and self-representation. |
