    Book SynopsisInformed by original ground-breaking research, this book âœshifts the lensâ of study, identifying how Indigenous Australian values and principles have influenced and contributed to an evolving non-Indigenous mainstream Australian culture. Based on the Indigenous principle of respect, Muller presents a solid research framework to break down the barriers of social differences in a culturally safe space.The text offers an insight into the cultural aspects of modern Australian society that contributed to its globally acclaimed handling of the current coronavirus pandemic. During the preparation for dealing with the pandemic, Mullerâs research was validated as the world witnessed the Australian culture undergoing major change, shifting away from the original colonialist culture based on individuality and social stratification, to a community collective-based culture. It will be a valuable read for scholars in the area of community and allied health, humanities, social policy, sociTable of Contents1. Introduction; 2. Culture and Identity: Who are ‘we and us’?; 3.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Anishinaabe Ways of Knowing and Being

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisVery few studies have examined the worldview of the Anishinaabeg from within the culture itself and none have explored the Anishinaabe worldview in relation to their efforts to maintain their culture in the present-day world. This book fills that gap. Focusing mainly on the Minnesota Anishinaabeg, Lawrence Gross explores how their worldview works to create a holistic way of living. However, as Gross also argues, the Anishinaabeg saw the end of their world early in the 20th century and experienced what he calls ''postapocalypse stress syndrome.'' As such, the book further explores how the values engendered by the worldview of the Anishinaabeg are finding expression in the modern world as they seek to rebuild their society.Trade Review’Anishinaabe Ways of Knowing and Being delivers fresh perspective and deep thought about the first people of the Great Lakes. Full of insight, it's an essential reference to the historical and contemporary experience of the Anishinaabe. Historians, anthropologists, and everyday citizens will find a wealth of knowledge here. And the Anishinaabe people themselves will find a useful tool to help them retrace their roots, understand their ancestors, and chart a path forward.’ Anton Treuer, Bemidji State University, USA ’This is a remarkable book: keen in insight, refreshingly witty, and unique for the way it integrates the multiple registers in which Gross is deeply learned. Gross synthesizes his academic training in Japanese Zen Buddhism and Native Studies as well as a life-long body of indigenous knowledge entrusted to him by Anishinaabe mentors, teachers, and relatives. The result is a methodologically forthright, well written, and creative consideration of Anishinaabe ways of knowing and their importance for community well-being. Readers will remember this book for the analytical and writerly space it creates in Native American studies.’ Michael D. McNally, Carlton College, USATable of ContentsContents: Foreword; Preface; Introduction. Part I The Anishinaabe Apocalypse: Encounter with apocalypse; Postapocalypse stress syndrome. Part II The Foundations of the Anishinaabe Worldview: Silence and the Anishinaabe worldview; The quantum nature of the Anishinaabe language. Part III The Anishinaabe Mind: The comic vision of the Anishinaabeg; The comic mind of the Anishinaabeg. Part IV The Anishinaabe Heart: Storytelling in the Anishinaabe context; Anishinaabe rhetoric. Part V The Anishinaabe Spirit: Bimaadiziwin, or the good life of the Anishinaabeg; Spiritual; growth in Anishinaabe society.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Indigenous and Decolonizing Studies in Education

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisIndigenous and decolonizing perspectives on education have long persisted alongside colonial models of education, yet too often have been subsumed within the fields of multiculturalism, critical race theory, and progressive education. Timely and compelling, Indigenous and Decolonizing Studies in Education features research, theory, and dynamic foundational readings for educators and educational researchers who are looking for possibilities beyond the limits of liberal democratic schooling. Featuring original chapters by authors at the forefront of theorizing, practice, research, and activism, this volume helps define and imagine the exciting interstices between Indigenous and decolonizing studies and education. Each chapter forwards Indigenous principles - such as Land as literacy and water as life - that are grounded in place-specific efforts of creating Indigenous universities and schools, community organizing and social movements, trans and Two Spirit practicesTrade Review"A deeply affirming, justice-centered collection that maps diverse and meaningful relations from multiple educational, geographic, cultural, and disciplinary perspectives—and does so in ways that help us think, teach, and live better. Every scholar and student in any area of Indigenous Studies should have a copy of this vital work. I am so grateful to the editors and the contributors for this gift, as it will continue to inform, challenge, and inspire me and so many others for a very long time to come."Daniel Heath Justice (Citizen, Cherokee Nation), Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Literature and Expressive Culture, Professor at the University of British Columbia"This collection is a primarily Indigenous-authored focus on ways education can be restructured to serve the interests of Indigenous sovereignty and resurgence, starting from first principles of Indigenous being such as land as teacher, and water is life. I look forward to how this volume and this series can be a place for Indigenous scholarly dialogue on how to wisely raise up our people and learn from the leading practices Indigenous communities are engaging in worldwide. Indigenous readers will want to consult this work, and works in the series, to find guidance on and inspiration for how to decolonize at home."Jean-Paul Restoule, Chair, Department of Indigenous Education, University of Virginia'The artwork and her statement confirm that Indigenous ways of being are featured in this edited book.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisRe-examines the European invasion of North America in the 17th- and 18th- centuries. Challenging the historical tradition that has denigrated Indians as "savages" and celebrated the triumph of European "civilization", the author of this text presents military history as only one dimension of a more fundamental conflict of cultures. Combining the perpsectives of ethnohistory and military history, the text provides an evaluation of the evolution and influence of both Indian and European ways of war during the period. Significant conflicts such as King Philip's war in New England, 1675-1676 notable due to the number of armend Indians, the French and Indian wars, the Amercian War of Independance and their conquest of the old Northwestbetween 1783-1815 are analyzed.Trade Review'Starkey has given his readers a useful bibliographical guide and a thought-provoking analysis. The attractive paperback should find a place on many a student bookshelf.' - John Oliphant, The Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth HistoryTable of ContentsIntroduction: raiders in the wilderness; the Indian way of war; the European background to North American warfare. Total war in New England: King Philip's war 1675-76 and its aftermath; Indians and the war for Empire 1689-1763. Wars of Independence: the revolutionary frontier 1744-83. Last stands: the defeat of Indian resistance in the Old Northwest 1783-1815.

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisAll culture, particularly that of non-literate traditions, is constantly being recreated, and in the process also undergoes changes. In this book, Fredrik Barth examines the changes that have taken place in the secret cosmological lore transmitted in male initiation ceremonies among the Mountain Ok of Inner New Guinea, and offers a new way of explaining how cultural change occurs. Professor Barth focuses in particular on accounting for the local variations in cosmological traditions that exist among the Ok people, who otherwise share similar material and ecological conditions, and similar languages. Rejecting existing anthropological theory as inadequate for explaining this, Professor Barth constructs a new model of the mechanisms of change, based on his close empirical observation of the processes of cultural transmission. This model emphasises the role of individual creativity in cultural reproduction and change, and maintains that cosmologies can be adequately understood only if theTrade Review"Barth provides significant theoretical insight into the nature of traditional and cultural variation. His focus on the mechanisms of communication and their effects on cultural symbols and the distribution of knowledge opens up a promising direction for future research." William H. McKellin, Pacific AffairsTable of ContentsForeword Jack Goody; Map; 1. The problem; 2. An attempt at systematic comparison: descent and ideas of conception; 3.
