Index
Part of the series Key Concepts in Indigenous Studies, this book focuses on the concepts
that recur in any discussion of nature, culture and society among the indigenous.
The book, the first in a five-volume series, deals with the two crucial concepts of
environment and belief systems of indigenous peoples from all the continents of the
world. With contributions from renowned scholars, activists and experts from around
the globe, it presents a salient picture of the environments of indigenous peoples
and discusses the essential features of their belief systems. It explores indigenous
perspectives related to religion, ritual and cultural practice, art and design, and
natural resources, as well as climate change impacts among such communities in Latin
and North America, Oceania (Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands),
India, Brazil, Southeast Asia and Africa. Bringing together academic insights and
experiences from the ground, this unique book's wide coverage will serve as a comprehensive
guide for students, teachers and scholars of indigenous studies. It will be essential
reading for those in anthropology, social anthropology, sociology and social exclusion
studies, religion and theology, and cultural studies, as well as activists working
with indigenous communities
