Aboriginal Business: Alliances in a Remote Australian Town

From the vantage point of the remote Northern Territory town of Tennant Creek, this book offers new writing and perspectives on the emergence of Aboriginal organisations, and the unfolding of these within town, regional and national contexts. It is an ethnographic snapshot of the Warumungu people, the traditional owners of the country. The author examines both the colonial past and the contemporary practices of alliance-making that set the stage for an alternative future, rerouting the national and global narratives that still seek to confine Indigenous people to the margins.
