Indigenous people have often been confronted with education systems that ignore their cultural and historical perspectives. Largely unsuccessful projects of assimilation have been the predominant outcome of indigenous communities' encounters with state schools, as many indigenous students fail to conform to mainstream cultural norms. This insightful volume is an important contribution to our understanding of indigenous empowerment through education. The contributors to this volume work in the fields of education, social development and community empowerment among indigenous communities around the world. Their essays create a new foundation for implementing specialized indigenous/minority education worldwide, and engage the simultaneous projects of cultural preservation and social integration. This work will be vital for scholars in Native American studies, ethnic studies, and education.

Ismael Abu-Saad is Professor of Education and founder of the Center for Bedouin Studies and Development at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel. He received his Ph.D. in Educational Policy and Administration from the University of Minnesota. Duane Champagne is Professor of Sociology and Director of the Native Nations Law & Policy Center, University of California, Los Angeles.
