Description

Native Studies Keywords by Stephanie Nohelani Teves, Andrea Smith and Michelle Raheja is an edited volume that explores eight key concepts in Native studies. These concepts - sovereignty, land, indigeneity, nation, blood, tradition, colonialism, and indigenous knowledge - are often used to describe complex social, historical, and political issues. The book examines the meanings and significance of these terms, providing definitions, historical context, and multiple perspectives on each concept. It is a genealogical project that looks at the history of words that claim to have no history, offering a critical new conversation in Native American studies. By exploring these foundational concepts, Native Studies Keywords sheds light on the complexities of Native studies and the need for nuanced understanding of the terms used to describe them.
