This collection offers the fruits of a stimulating workshop that
sought to bridge the fraught relationship which sometimes continues
between anthropologists and indigenous/native/aboriginal scholars,
despite areas of overlapping interest. Participants from around the
world share their views and opinions on subjects ranging from ideas
for reconciliation, the question of what might constitute a
universal "science," indigenous heritage, postcolonial museology,
the boundaries of the term "indigeneity," different senses as ways
of knowing, and the very issue of writing as a method of
dissemination that divides and excludes readers from different
backgrounds. This book represents a landmark step in the process of
replacing bridges with more equal patterns of intercultural
cooperation and communication.
