A propos de cet article

Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Pages have sunned. As a result of self-determination policy, the 'Indigenous Sector'-thousands of Indigenous organizations established since the early 1970s-has flourished, enhancing the Indigenous capacity to make choices. Tim Rowse reflects on the strengths and weaknesses of the Centre for Aboriginal Economic Policy Research's social scientific representation of the 'Indigenous interest' and argues that in any debate on the Indigenous future, we must also pay attention to what social scientists have to say.

Synopsis

As a result of self-determination policy, the 'Indigenous Sector'--thousands of Indigenous organizations established since the early 1970s--has flourished, enhancing the Indigenous capacity to make choices. Tim Rowse reflects on the strengths and weaknesses of the Centre for Aboriginal Economic Policy Research's social scientific representation of the 'Indigenous interest' and argues that in any debate on the Indigenous future, we must also pay attention to what social scientists have to say.
