This work does a fantastic job of summarizing the philosophical concepts to the reader and then applying them within the Canadian context, making it possible for the reader to follow along without an in-depth knowledge of Fanon and Marx.
Coulthard critiques the contemporary framework of Indigenous rights based on state recognition, highlighting the ways that recognition can be limited, and how despite speaking of reconciliation, the state continues to actively participate in colonialism via a capitalist framework (namely, dispossession of Indigenous lands for capitalist exploitation).
A weakness in Coulthard's work is that he does not further expand on recognition in other contexts. He does not significantly touch upon the recognition paradigm as it pertains to those that are unrecognized by the state as Indigenous (ex: Non-Status), and the impact on their ability to assert their rights in the contemporary Canadian state.
He could have gone further by touching upon these other issues relating to recognition, which potentially would have strengthened the work.
Despite the noted weakness, this work is a fantastic piece of Marxist and Postcolonial Indigenous literature.… (mehr)
