Maps play an indispensable role in indigenous peoples' efforts to
secure land rights in the Americas and beyond. Yet indigenous
peoples did not invent participatory mapping techniques on their
own; they appropriated them from techniques developed for colonial
rule and counterinsurgency campaigns, and refined by
anthropologists and geographers. Through a series of historical and
contemporary examples from Nicaragua, Canada, and Mexico, this book
explores the tension between military applications of participatory
mapping and its use for political mobilization and advocacy. The
authors analyze the emergence of indigenous territories as spaces
defined by a collective way of life--and as a particular kind of
battleground.
