Abstract

This twelve-essay volume follows Volume 1: The Legacy. Together they offer a comprehensive history of Indian education in Canada as well as a survey of current issues and future directions. Volume 2 has nine Indian/Metis authors, reflecting the move toward self-determination not only in Canada but in indigenous populations the world over. In Canada the movement has rallied around the phrase "Indian Control of Indian Education" and Volume 2: The Challenge addresses this topic.
