Indigenous diasporas and dislocations

"Indigenous religions are now present not only in their places of origin but globally. They are significant parts of the pluralism and diversity of the contemporary world, especially when their performance enriches and/or challenges host populations. Indigenous Diasporas and Dislocations engages with examples of communities with different experiences, expectations and evaluations of diaspora life. It contributes significantly to debates about indigenous cultures and religions and to understandings of identity and alterity in late- or post-modernity. This book promises to enrich understanding of indigenity and of the globalized world in which indigenous people play diverse roles."—BOOK JACKET.
