Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who is “the Other”? What does it mean to represent peoples who are different from one’s own? For the modern painter and photographer, images of “Others” were often important sources of inspiration. Artworks might emphasise differences between people—by drawing upon exotic stereotypes about so-called “primitive” cultures—but could also be used to assert a position of solidarity with marginalised communities. The exhibition Familiar Others explores this through the work of the work of three artists. Painter Emiria Sunassa (1894‒1964) made images of peoples from all over the Indonesia archipelago but had a special interest in Papua. Eduardo Masferré (1909‒1995) photographed peoples of the Cordillera region, where he spent his life. Yeh Chi Wei (1913‒1991) travelled throughout Southeast Asia, but was especially inspired by the Indigenous Peoples of Sarawak and Sabah. This catalogue features an essay by curator Phoebe Scott, full-colour images of the artworks, timelines of the three artists, and the artwork responese by artists, poets, academics and musicians that were commissioned for this exhibition.

Download or read book Indigenous Peoples, Title to Territory, Rights and Resources written by Cathal M. Doyle and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The right of indigenous peoples under international human rights law to give or withhold their Free Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) to natural resource extraction in their territories is increasingly recognized by intergovernmental organizations, international bodies, and industry actors, as well as in the domestic law of some States. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the historical basis and status of the requirement for indigenous peoples’ consent under international law, examining its relationship with debates and practice pertaining to the acquisition of title to territory throughout the colonial era. Cathal Doyle examines the evolution of the contemporary concept of FPIC and the main challenges and debates associated with its recognition and implementation. Drawing on existing jurisprudence and evolving international standards, policies and practices, Doyle argues that FPIC constitutes an emerging norm of international law, which is derived from indigenous peoples’ self-determination, territorial and cultural rights, and is fundamental to their realization. This rights consistent version of FPIC guarantees that the responses to questions and challenges posed by the extractive industry’s increasingly pervasive reach will be provided by indigenous peoples themselves. The book will be of great interest and value to students and researchers of public international law, and indigenous peoples and human rights.

Download or read book Governor of the Cordillera written by Shelton Woods and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-15 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governor of the Cordillera tells the story of an American colonial official in the Philippines who took the unpopular position of defending the rights of the Igorots, was fired in disgrace, and made a triumphal return. During the first fifteen years of colonial rule (1898–1913), a small group of Americans controlled the headhunting tribes who were wards of the nascent colonial government. These officials ignored laws, carved out fiefdoms, and brutalized (or killed) those who challenged their rule. John Early was cut from a different cloth. Battling colleagues and supervisors over their treatment of the mountain people, Early also had run-ins with lowland Filipino leaders like Manuel Quezon. Early's return as governor of the entire Cordillera was celebrated by all the tribes. In Governor of the Cordillera Shelton Woods combines biography with colonial history. He includes a discussion on the exhibition of the Igorots at the various fairs in the US and Europe, which Early tried to stop. The life of John Early is a testament to navigating political and racial divides with integrity.
