Description
Rapid industrial development and urban growth increasingly threaten indigenous peoples and their ways of life. As a result, a grassroots preservation movement is spreading among indigenous cultures, and the 1992 Rio Earth Summit catalyzed a UN legal investigation into such threats. Challenging the assumption that these processes are empowering indigenous peoples in tangible ways, this book examines the ongoing work and offers a detailed analysis of its implications.
