This introduction presents an overview of the concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book discusses young Argentine Mapuches less interested in older Mapuche agendas of land rights and traditional political organizing than in asserting their Mapucheness while establishing identities as punk rock and heavy metal fans and musicians. It examines the accomplishments and challenges for the Choctaw in the United States in their quest for a measure of real tribal power over their own lives and land. The book argues that sovereignty has become a crucial watchword in indigenous activism worldwide and shows for the Hmong/Miao, the trials of trasnationality can power nostalgia for lost homelands. It explores music’s role in the transnational cultural politics of indigeneity and focuses on Andean music as it travels from Bolivia and Peru to Tokyo and back home and offers an insider’s view of the challenges of putting together the exhibits in time for its 2004 opening.
