Native American Studies
|
|
|
The objective of the workshop is to identify the advantages and disadvantages of studying Native Americans as a stand-alone group, or within the broader comparative frame of the study of indigeneity. This is a vexing question that involves weighing theoretical and historical considerations against the pragmatics of limited university resources, and an urgent concern with the recognition and study of Native American social conditions, culture, and thought. Our workshop opens a space for sustained consideration of this matter. The category "Native American" is one specific result and instance of the dialectics of identity formation around colonization, internal colonialism, and de-colonization. It refers to a set of peoples who suffered and who reconfigured their cultures and social institutions within the broad historical arc of British, French, and Spanish colonial expansion into North America, and subsequently within the national history of the United States. From the angle of a contemporary politics of recognition, the category also names a political space of identification.
