About this product
Product Information
The Native American Contest Powwow introduces Cultural Tethering Theory to understand the importance of the contest powwow and what it means to participants, carrying on the beauty of Native American culture. The book addresses the concepts of culture, cultural change, acculturation, assimilation, and how this competitive dancing ritual aligns with and differs from traditional sports. Authors Steven Aicinena and Sebahattin Ziyanak go on to explain why modern Native American cultures are experiencing an erosion of traditional values, a rapid loss of traditional languages, changes in social organization, limited opportunity to learn culturally-valued knowledge, reduced opportunity to observe culturally appropriate behavior, and the influence of technology. The book also examines Native American identity and who can legitimately claim to be a Native American under current laws and customs. Additional topics addressed include blood quantum, cultural knowledge, participation, being Indian, and playing Indian. Finally, the authors describe the difference between being Native American and playing Indian in powwow and pseudo-cultural powwow environments.

Pros - polite communication, low prices, generous discount offered for damaged book.
Cons - very slow communication which tends to be generic and promises much but delivers little, heavy book was sent in a jiffy bag and arrived damaged, had to get Ebay involved to action the promised partial refund.
Summary - 'pile it high and sell it cheap' organisation which is unable to provide efficient customer service and makes the mistake of not packaging books correctly. Will not buy from them again.
