Indigenous Identity and Resistance brings together the work of
Indigenous Studies scholars working in Canada, New Zealand and the
Pacific in research conversations that transcend the imperial
boundaries of the colonial nations in which they are located. Their
lucid, accessible, and thought-provoking essays provide a critical
understanding of the ways in which Indigenous peoples are
rearticulating their histories, knowledges, and the Indigenous
self. Hana O’Regan discusses a programme of language regeneration
initiated by members of her iwi, Kai Tahu. Chris Andersen describes
the power of Canada’s colonial nation-state in constructing
categories of indigeneity. Brendan Hokowhitu problematises the
common discourses underpinning Indigenous resistance. Janine
Hayward compares Indigenous political representation in Canada and
New Zealand. This is just a snapshot of the forward-looking
research in this reader. Taken together, it heralds some new ways
of thinking about Indigenous Studies in the 21st Century.
