Description

Over the last fifty years, indigenous politics has become an increasingly important field of study. Recognition of self-determination rights are being demanded by indigenous peoples around the world. Indigenous struggles for political representation are shaped by historical and social circumstances particular to their nations but there are nevertheless many shared experiences. What are some of the commonalities, similarities and differences to indigenous representation, participation and mobilisation? This anthology provides a comparative perspective on institutional arrangements that provide for varying degrees of indigenous representation, including different forms of indigenous self-organisation as well as government-created structures for indigenous representation. A range of comparative and country-specific studies provide a wealth of information on institutional arrangements and processes that mobilise indigenous peoples and how they negotiate alliances and handle conflict.
