Champagne and his distinguished coauthors reveal how the structure
of a multinational state has the potential to create more equal and
just national communities for Native peoples around the globe. Many
countries still face extreme differences among ethnic groups and
submerged nations, leading to marginalization and violence.
Examining these inherent instabilities in multicultural nations
such as the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Guatemala, the authors
confront problems of coerced assimilation for indigenous
communities whose identities predate the formation of the nation
states, often by thousands of years. The contributors show how
indigenous people seek to preserve their territory, their rights to
self-government, and their culture. This book is a valuable
resource for Native American, Canadian and Latin American studies;
comparative indigenous governments; constitutional law; and
international relations.
