Description
Going beyond documenting the impacts of resource-based development, this work examines five key themes in contemporary disputes between indigenous peoples, nation states, and resource developers: the complex relationships between resources, identity and sovereignty; culture and gender issues in resource projects; marginalization of and negotiations with indigenous interests; compensation and the monitoring of agreements; and the role of governments in mediating relations between industry and indigenous groups.
