Theoretical and methodological issues involved in researching and writing Indigenous Studies, including race, gender, class and ethnicity will be examined. This subject will be underpinned by an examination of appropriate ethical and protocol considerations. The subject will also deeply analyse power and privilege within the context of researching Indigenous Studies. Students will also be given the opportunity to enhance their understandings of Indigenous Studies at a global level. -- Course Website
