This book presents current research in the political ecology of
indigenous revival and its role in nature conservation in critical
areas in the Americas. An important contribution to evolving
studies on conservation of sacred natural sites (SNS), the book
elucidates the complexity of development scenarios within cultural
landscapes related to the appropriation of religion, environmental
change in indigenous territories, and new conservation management
approaches. Indigeneity and the Sacred explores how these struggles
for land, rights, and political power are embedded within physical
landscapes, and how indigenous identity is reconstituted as
globalizing forces simultaneously threaten and promote the notion
of indigeneity.
