Synopsis

In this exciting new addition to Oxford's acclaimed Themes in Canadian Sociology series, author James S. Frideres examines the ways in which colonization and government action - and inaction - have impacted First Nations peoples in Canada over the last three centuries. Unlike most undergraduate textbooks in this area, which tend to focus on all three Aboriginal groups in Canada, First Nations in the Twenty-First Century is a concise yet comprehensive text that focuses exclusively on First Nations peoples. Covering such crucial topics as trauma, health and well-being, language, law, and politics, this important and innovative text is an indispensable core or supplemental resource for undergraduate courses that focus on First Nations peoples.
