Trade Review"…This book uncovers some of the mounting tensions and pervasive discontinuities in global Indigenous tourism movements. The book makes a significant contribution to the literature on Indigenous tourism, colonial histories of cultural repression, the production of Indigeneity, nationalism, and the inequitable of political power structures that continue to marginalize and disadvantage Indigenous communities internationally." -- Courtney Mason, Thompson Rivers University * Transmotion, vol 5 no 1 *
