Description
International indigenism may sound like a contradiction in terms, but it is indeed a global phenomenon and a growing form of activism. In this narrative, Ronald Niezen examines the ways the relatively recent emergence of an internationally recognized identity – indigenous peoples – intersects with another relatively recent international movement – the development of universal human rights laws and principles. This movement makes use of human rights instruments and the international organizations of states to resist the political, cultural and economic incursions of individual states.
