Publisher Synopsis
"The questions Gould's admirable work raises should spur in-depth scholarship in Nicaragua and elsewhere. Gould illustrates how discourses of homogeneity and equal rights can be used as weapons, and thus touches on issues of assimilation, such as bilingual education, religious freedom and nationalism, and on the thorny issues concerning reparations for intergroup oppression, such as affirmative action and rectification of borders." --TLS, August 6, 1999 Read more...
