Social, economic, and technological changes disrupt many
Indigenous, ethnic, and rural communities even when offering
progress. Under these conditions, social and psychological
dysfunctions are likely to emerge. This book provides insights
regarding how to anticipate, prevent, and, when necessary, provide
mitigation strategies to communities and individuals who suffer as
a result. This book, the first of its kind, provides an overview of
strategic and policy issues involving the relationship between
change and dysfunction, enabling the reader to more effectively
deal with potentially hurtful influences in proactive, equitable,
and culturally sensitive ways. After providing a theoretical
overview, methods for anticipating the hurtful impacts of change
are discussed, along with techniques for mitigating its negative
effects upon communities and individuals. Learning objectives and
discussion questions are included with each chapter, and the book
can serve as a text for courses on indigenous economic development,
Native studies, culturally appropriate business, and culturally
competent therapy. It can also be used as a professional handbook
for practitioners working with communities affected by these
issues.
