Native on the Net: Indigenous and Diasporic Peoples in the Virtual Age: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Native on the Net: Indigenous and Diasporic Peoples in the Virtual Age" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Exploring the influence of the Internet on the lives of indigenous and diasporic peoples, Kyra Landzelius leads a team of expert anthropologists and ethnographers who go on-site and on-line to explore how a diverse range of indigenous and transnational diasporic communities actually use the Internet.

From the Taino Indians of the Caribbean, the Uwa of the Amazon rainforest, and the Tunomans and Assyrians of Iraq, to the Tingas and Zapatistas, Native on the Net is a lively and intriguing exploration of how new technologies have enabled these previously isolated peoples to reach new levels of communication and community: creating new communities online, confronting global corporations, or even challenging their own native traditions. Featuring case studies ranging from the Artic to the Australian outback, this book addresses important recurrent themes, such as the relationship between identity and place, community, traditional cultures and the nature of the indigenous.

Native on the Net is a unique contribution to our knowledge of the impact of new global communication technologies on those who have traditionally been geographically, politically and economically marginalised.

Native on the Net
Is the global village a real possibility in cyberspace? Native on the Net explores the influence of the internet on the lives and routines of indigenous and diasporic peoples. With case studies ranging from the Arctic to the Australian outback, Kyra Landzelius leads a team of expert anthropologists and ethnographers who go on-site and online to explore how a diverse range of indigenous and transnational diasporic communities actually use the internet. From the Taino Indians of the Carribbean to the Uwa of the Amazon rainforest, from the Turcomans and Assyrians of Iraq to the Tongas and Zapatistas, Native on the Net is a lively and intriguing exploration of how new technologies have enabled these previously isolated peoples to reach new levels of communication and community: creating new communities online, confronting global corporations, or even challenging their own native traditions.
As well as offering a rich exploration of local use of the internet, important recurrent themes such as the relationship between identity and place, community, traditional cultures, and the nature of the indigenous are explored in varying contexts, providing a unique contribution to our knowledge of the impact of new global communication technologies on those who have traditionally been geographically, politically and economically marginalised.
Kyra Landzelius is an anthropologist (PhD, University of Pennsylvania) and currently a researcher at the University of Gothenburg. She has been an Assistant Professor at Centre College, a Visiting Scholar at the Department of Anthropology, Cambridge University, and a Lise Meitner Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Science, Technology and Society in Graz.
