Keeping heritage relevant at a generational crossroad
Heritage is at a generational crossroad, caught between preservation and reinvention, between the weight of history and the demands of an interconnected present. Heritage valuation has relied on straightforward measures, such as admission fees, visitor numbers, overlooking the broader cultural meanings that shape engagement across generations. This paper presents a stated preference survey enabling heritage research to deploy choice modelling in …
Recovering Our Ancestral Foodways
Recovering Our Ancestral Foodways: Indigenous Traditions as a Recipe for Living Well. 2024. By Mariaelena Huambachano. Oakland: University of California Press. 248pp. $95 (hardcover), $29.95 (paperback or e- book)
Chief Thunderwater
Gripping, freshly unearthed research often reads like a detective story. This example of superb sleuthing is no exception. Gerald Reid has taken a second look at a figure buried under narratives from the past and gifted to readers a revealing, painstakingly supported and nuanced version of his story. Anyone interested in the political history of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois/Six Nations Confederacy) across the northeastern region, or in the battles…
Fighting for Andean resources
Too often it is assumed that all impact from mining, upon the environment and society, is inherently bad. This is the result of a narrow focus on the power asymmetries between cash-strapped countries (and their needs) and cash-rich countries (and their mining interests). Looking at how extractive industries have impacted Peru, Vladimir Ramón's new book takes readers beyond such thinking and towards a reasoned, granular understanding of how resour…
Languages of Trauma
This fascinating edited collection sets out to advance and define the ‘third wave’ of trauma studies. It seeks to move discussion beyond the definition of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) arrived in 1980 towards a wider and more holistic analysis that includes film, art, letters, theatre, diaries and music. Thus it considers how traumatic memory is articulated within medical contexts and within immediate personal contexts, but also encompass…

Seneca Possessed
Most people who have spent time delving into Seneca Iroquois records have come across intriguing references to witchcraft right into the twentieth century. Therefore, the idea of a book that unpacks witchcraft and Seneca life is a welcome one. Here we find useful information on witchcraft and the Seneca, placed in a broad context and juxtaposed with further information on the Handsome Lake faith, gendered tribal change, and Quaker missions. A rea…
The Cambridge Companion to Native American Literature
Invisible, marginal, expected - these words trace the path of recognition for American Indian literature written in English since the late eighteenth century. This Companion chronicles and celebrates that trajectory by defining relevant institutional, historical, cultural, and gender contexts, by outlining the variety of genres written since the 1770s, and also by focusing on significant authors who established a place for Native literature in li…

Jimmy Carter
This article will extend the current re‐evaluation of the Carter presidency through a detailed examination of the enduring impact of his evangelical Christian faith upon modern American political discourse. Carter successfully reawakened faith‐based politics but, because his faith did not exactly mirror the religious and political agenda of the disparate groups that make up the religious conservative movement within the United States, that newly …
