This book is highly suited for students, educators, and researchers in indigenous studies, anthropology, globalisation, and social movements. It provides valuable insights for those interested in the intersections of local indigenous experiences with global forces.

Through case studies from around the world, this book demonstrates how indigenous peoples' movements can only be understood by linking highly localized processes with larger global and historical forces. It shows that indigenous peoples have been resisting and adapting to encounters with states for millennia.

Description

The issues native peoples face intensify with globalization. Through case studies from around the world, Hall and Fenelon demonstrate how indigenous peoples’ movements can only be understood by linking highly localized processes with larger global and historical forces.

The authors show that indigenous peoples have been resisting and adapting to encounters with states for millennia. Unlike other antiglobalization activists, indigenous peoples primarily seek autonomy and the right to determine their own processes of adaptation and change, especially in relation to their origin lands and community.

The authors link their analyses in Indigenous Peoples and Globalization to current understandings of the evolution of globalization.
