Indigenous People as Object-Matter
Get PDFThe literary tendency to map and position indigenous people as passive objects can be seen in three domains: (1) a study that maps the identity of indigenous people as something “authenticâ€; (2) subordinated by dominant groups; and (3) vulnerable to change. This paper places indigenous people as the subject matter where the subject’s perspective is accommodated in understanding their ideas and choices of attitudes and ways of life. This paper aims to (1) answer the question of how the literature defines the identity of indigenous people; (2) showing the misconceptions built by various literatures in interpreting the identity of indigenous people; (3) showing that stereotypes about indigenous people as a construction of thought from those in power.
