This book addresses cross-cultural representations of ethnic
minority peoples by dominant society 'outsiders' and indigenous
self-representation in the context of the 'New Media Nation'. In
doing so, it explores the role of language, culture, identity and
media in liberation struggles and the emergence of new political
entities, and opens up issues of colonial oppression to public
debate. It is intended to help inform policy in a variety of
settings. Grounded in current perspectives on diaspora and homeland
and drawing on Alia's work on minorities, media and identity as
well as Bull's work on Maori socio-cultural issues and
criminalisation of minorities, this volume offers a comparative,
international perspective on the experiences of a broad range of
ethnic minority peoples. These include Inuit and First Nations
people in Canada; Native Americans and African Americans in the
United States; Sami in northern Europe; Maori in New Zealand;
Aboriginal people in Australia and Roma in Ireland and Britain.
