Self-determination as self-transformation

Tim Rowse

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    Tim Rowse’s contribution investigates how Indigenous peoples adapt within contexts not of their own making. Studying the last two centuries of Aborigine-state relations in Australia, Rowse looks at the changing ways Aborigines have envisioned their futures over time and how, in certain instances, what seemed like positive steps actually limited Indigenous autonomy and development. This leads him to conclude that greater awareness of historical processes is vital to promote a vision of self-determination understood as self-transformation, whereby Indigenous peoples can more freely promote their interests as they regain access to traditional territories.
