Conciliation on Colonial Frontiers (eBook, PDF)

Conflict, Performance, and Commemoration in Australia and the Pacific Rim
Redaktion: Darian-Smith, Kate; Edmonds, Penelope

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Spanning the late 18th century to the present, this volume explores new directions in imperial and postcolonial histories of conciliation, performance, and conflict between European colonizers and Indigenous peoples in Australia and the Pacific Rim, including Aotearoa New Zealand, Hawaii and the Northwest Pacific Coast. It examines cultural "rituals" and objects; the re-enactments of various events and encounters of exchange, conciliation and diplomacy that occurred on colonial frontiers between non-Indigenous and Indigenous peoples; commemorations of historic events; and how the histories of colonial conflict and conciliation are politicized in nation-building and national identities.
