Indigenous cultural studies: intersections between cultural studies and Indigenous studies

History, Power, Text collects together selected contributions on Indigenous themes published between 1996 and 2013 in the journal first known as UTS Review and now known as Cultural Studies Review. Since the journal’s inception, successive editors have sought to open up a space for new kinds of politics, new styles of writing and new modes of interdisciplinary engagement. Like the journal it draws its material from, this collection has been conceived and assembled as an exercise in institution building beyond ‘the Institution’. We call this institution, tentatively, ‘Indigenous cultural studies’ and see it as a disciplinary space that is built iteratively through events, single articles and books. We do not seek to prescribe or delimit this project but rather to give it density and energise those working in the overlapping fields represented here.
