Peoples of the Earth: Ethnonationalism, Democracy, and the Indigenous Challenge in "Latin" AmericaLexington Books, 01.01.2010 - 296 Seiten This book explores the culture of indigenous peoples in Latin America, the fundamental challenges they offer to traditional Euro-American notions of democracy, citizenship and develop the interface of these topics. It also explores the relevant themes on human rights and the environment, with questions of security and the risks implicit in the adoption of ethnonationalist dogma. Peoples of the Earth does this, using a cross disciplinary approach that employs anthropology, history, political science, legal theory and ethnonationalism. |
