Book excerpt: Indigenous Communalism is a study of community building in Native communities, and considers what models might be drawn from the strategies of Indigenous groups for post-colonial communalism and native self-determination in contemporary global society. Drawing on her ethnographic work among the Akimel O'odham and the Wiradjuri, Carolyn Smith-Morris shows how communal work and culture help these communities form distinctive indigenous bonds.
