Indigenous Studies

Written by leading Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars, Voicing Identity examines the issue of cultural appropriation in the contexts of researching, writing, and teaching about Indigenous peoples. This book grapples with the question: who is qualified to engage in these activities and how can this be done appropriately and respectfully? The authors address these questions from their own individual perspectives and experiences, often revealing personal struggles and their ongoing attempts to resolve them.

Criminalization of Activism draws on a multiplicity of perspectives and case studies from the Global South and Global North to show how protest has been subject to processes of criminalisation over time. Bringing together a range of criminalisation themes into a single volume, compromising historical criminology, indigenous studies, gender studies, critical criminology, southern criminology, convict criminology and green criminology, it will be of great interest to scholars and students of criminology and sociology, as well as those involved in activism.
