Shamanism, Discourse, Modernity considers indigenous peoples? struggles for human rights, anxieties about anthropocentric mastery of nature, neoliberal statecraft, and entrepreneurialism of the self. The book focuses on four domains - shamanism, indigenism, environmentalism and neoliberalism - in terms of interrelated historical processes and overlapping discourses. In doing so, it engages with shamanism?s manifold meanings in a world increasingly sensitive to indigenous peoples? practices of territoriality, increasingly concerned about humans? integral relationship with natural environments, and increasingly encouraged and coerced to adjust self-conduct to comport with and augment government conduct.
