Shamanism, Discourse, Modernity considers indigenous peoples'
struggles for human rights, anxieties about anthropocentric mastery
of nature, neoliberal statecraft, and entrepreneurialism of the
self. The book focuses on four domains - shamanism, indigenism,
environmentalism and neoliberalism - in terms of interrelated
historical processes and overlapping discourses. In doing so, it
engages with shamanism's manifold meanings in a world increasingly
sensitive to indigenous peoples' practices of territoriality,
increasingly concerned about humans' integral relationship with
natural environments, and increasingly encouraged and coerced to
adjust self-conduct to comport with and augment government conduct.
