Invisible indigenes : the politics of nonrecognition  Cover Image Book Book

Invisible indigenes : the politics of nonrecognition / Bruce Granville Miller.

Summary:

"In the last few decades, as indigenous peoples have increasingly sought out and sometimes demanded sovereignty on a variety of fronts, their relationship with encompassing nation states have become ever more complicated and troubled. The varying ways that today's nation-states attempt to manage - and often render invisible - contemporary indigenous peoples is the subject of this global comparative study." "Invisible Indigenes reveals a recurring issue integral to the formation and maintenance of nation-state today and highlights a common challenge facing indigenous people around the globe in the twenty-first century."--BOOK JACKET.
