Synopsis:

Rapid industrial development and urban growth increasingly threaten indigenous peoples and their ways of life. As a result, a grassroots movement is spreading among indigenous cultures, and the 1992 Rio Earth Summit catalyzed a UN legal investigation. Indigenous Peoples challenges the assumption that these processes are empowering indigenous peoples in tangible ways by examining the ongoing work, and offers a detailed analysis of the legal, political and institutional implications. This volume is an engaging study of the issues involved in indigenous peoples' rights.

About the Authors: The editors are associated with the Center for Maritime Research (MARE), Amsterdam, an interdisciplinary institute for research in the use and management of marine resources, based in Amsterdam.


Henry Minde is professor of history at the University of Tromsų, Norway. He is the author of Becoming Visible: Indigenous Politicsand Self-Government and Indigenous Peoples: Resource Management and Global Rights, the latter also published by Eburon.
