Remediating Cartographies of Erasure brings together leading sociocultural and linguistic anthropologists to explore the moral imperatives of anthropology as a discipline to contribute to the self-determination and equality of Indigenous peoples around the globe. This engaged collaboration highlights the partnerships between Indigenous communities and anthropology as a mutually respectful and emancipatory practice of Indigenous and anthropological epistemologies.Indigenous scholars from New Zealand, the United States, and Canada and non-Indigenous scholars from Australia, the United States, and Canada each provide concrete examples of how researchers actualize the moral imperative to work with Indigenous peoples in ways that foster their human rights and self-determination. The contributors discuss anthropological work done in Canada, the United States, Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Honduras, Australia, Sardinia, and New Zealand.In laying out a world anthropology, this volume demonstrates the rectification practices of Indigenous peoples and continues anthropology’s long-standing advocacy for social justice and human rights around the globe.

“The scholars featured in this volume represent an excellent cross section of engaged and engaging thinkers, . . . bold and insightful. One of the book’s main contributions is the challenge it sets for readers to look again at what it is they thought they knew through a new lens of inquiry. In this spirit, it will be of wide interest to human geographers as well as anthropologists and Indigenous studies scholars.”-Mark K. Watson, author of Japan’s Ainu Minority in Tokyo: Diasporic Indigeneity and Urban Politics
