Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on three Indigenous World Heritage sites in Canada, this book explores their role in Indigenous empowerment and community development. Through ethnographic studies and narrative interviews, it highlights how First Nation communities assert their rights to cultural heritage and self-determination. The text also critiques universalistic discourses surrounding World Heritage, examining how they can either perpetuate oppression or create pathways for Indigenous voices. This work is valuable for scholars in social and cultural histories, colonial studies, and heritage disciplines.
