About this book
Reviews
“This important book challenges the current celebration of indigeneity by looking at how this works through neoliberal ways of understanding the subject. It shows how arguments about resilience and adaptability actually undermine the creative agency of the indigenous subject while encouraging the view that vulnerability and uncertainty are inevitable. As such, the book provides a valuable resource in challenging dominant ways of thinkingthat appear to offer hope, while actually encouraging resignation.” (Jonathan Joseph, The University of Sheffield)
