Aboriginal Business: Alliances in a Remote Australian Town - Tapa blanda

From the vantage point of the remote Northern Territory town of Tennant Creek in Australia, this book examines the practical partnerships and awkward alliances that constitute Indigenous modernities.

Dr. Christen's research focuses on contemporary articulations of indigeneity globally, with specific attention to Australia. She has worked collaboratively with the Warumungu community in Central Australia on a range of projects, including oral history and DVD, an educational website, and a community digital archive (www.mukurtuarchive.org). Her current research grows from this work and focuses on the intersection of digital technologies, archives, intellectual property rights, and heritage movements within indigenous communities. Dr. Christen maintains a blog, Long Road (www.kimberlychristen.com), where she regularly addresses these issues and archives her publications and on-going projects.
