Indigenous Studies and Engaged Anthropology: The Collaborative Moment

Indigenous Studies and Engaged Anthropology: The Collaborative Moment

Indigenous Studies and Engaged Anthropology: The Collaborative Moment, edited by Paul Sillitoe, brings together scholars and practitioners to reflect on participatory approaches in anthropology. The volume includes contributions connected to Oceania, such as studies on Māori research, Indigenous education in Papua, and recognition issues in Australia. Central to the book is the idea of reshaping the researcher–researched relationship by involving communities as active participants throughout the research process. While this engaged approach raises debates about academic rigor and authority, the collection highlights its potential to foster more egalitarian, inclusive, and culturally grounded knowledge production.
