商品簡介
Eickelkamp's (anthropology, U. of Sydney) collection of scholarly essays, as well as her own research, explores Aboriginal children's education and cultural changes in recent years and the effect on its environments. As the population of indigenous people rapidly expands, their social world becomes more modernized. The research conducted in this area of study shows how the children have had a difficult road adjusting to these changes. The purpose of this book is to bring awareness to the challenges they have faced and what it means to their individual, as well as collective, futures.
