Rezensionen

"Superb. A powerful and rich piece of writing about a key relationship in today's world: that between indigenous and settler peoples. With clarity and grace, this book provides new insights into the necessary engagements between us." - Professor Alison Jones, University of Auckland, New Zealand

"This book should be on the shelves of every researcher working on identity issues - mandatory reading for those working on settler societies such as the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Avril Bell combines rich, riveting accounts of settler-indigene relations with elegant, accessible reviews of key theory. I am recommending this gem of a book to all my graduate students and to all those interested in the possibilities for new kinds of political and ethical relations in postcolonial contexts." - Margaret Wetherell, Open University, UK
