Opis

This book presents recent research on the cultural revival and the construction of indigeneity in the South Pacific. Beginning with Kenneth Maddock's, "Revival, Renaissance, and the Meaning of Modern Constructions in Australia, " the book moves onto essays about Maori society, including discussions on Maori assertions of indigeneity, the post-colonial traumatic stress disorder, and Holocaust denial. Jacqueline Leckie concludes this important book with her study of the return to Nukulau: the troubled waters of ethno-nationalism in Fiji.
