Klappentext
Biografische Anmerkung
Inhaltsverzeichnis

Some indigenous people, while remaining attached to their traditional homelands, leave them to make a new life for themselves in white towns and cities, thus constituting an "indigenous diaspora". This innovative book is the first ethnographic account of one such indigenous diaspora, the Warlpiri, whose traditional hunter-gatherer life has been transformed through their dispossession and involvement with ranchers, missionaries, and successive government projects of recognition. By following several Warlpiri matriarchs into their new locations, far from their home settlements, this book explores how they sustained their independent lives, and examines their changing relationship with the traditional culture they represent.



Paul Burke is currently a Visiting Fellow at the School of Archaeology and Anthropology, Australian National University.  In 2009, he was awarded a postdoctoral fellowship by the Australian Research Council to conduct the research for this book. His previous work on anthropologists in native title claims, Law's Anthropology, was published by ANU Press in 2011.
