Reviews

This work presents an applied analysis of Indigenous nationhood, and cauterizes anthropological approaches to Indigenous self-determination in the process. These authors know exactly what is at stake for Indigenous Nations, and they share research that is strengths-based in the truest sense of the word; deeply sensitive to complexity and lived experience and wholly committed to Indigenous authority. Focused, practical and inherently decolonial, this work clarifies and extends conceptual models built from real-world practices of strengthening Indigenous nationhood. This book is also a powerful and generous gift of knowledge from the Gunditjmara People and the Ngarrindjeri Nation. By sharing their stories of resistance and rebuilding—challenges faced, and victories won—these Indigenous nations show what can be achieved for Country and culture, and the next generation who will carry responsibility for both. * Professor Nikki Moodie (Gomeroi), University of Melbourne * From the legacy and actions of our old people, the shared insights inspire Indigenous nation building and leadership in practice to shape the future of our coming generations. * Donna Murray, Wiradyuri citizen and nation building practitioner * A crucial and timely contribution to support the international grassroots movement of Indigenous Peoples in their pursuit of self-determination. * Joan Timeche (Hopi), Executive Director (2009-2025), Native Nations Institute, University of Arizona, USA *
