Scales of Resistance
«
"The strength of the theoretical argument lies in the interaction between the various case studies explored in the chapters, as well as in their interrelation among struggles, allowing for an exploration of the different scales of indigenous women’s organization and considering them as interconnected rather than separated by national or political borders. ... While the opening up of the concepts of scale and boundary remains a major theoretical contribution, [Scales of Resistance] also subtly showcases the strength of indigenous women’s movements and their repertoire of rich, diverse, and unique actions, constituting an equally important empirical contribution."

"In Scales of Resistance, Blackwell rethinks scale beyond solely its colonial and masculinist forms by centering Indigenous women’s organizing and geographies. By highlighting the work that Indigenous women (sometimes migrants) do at varying scales, as well as the creation of new scales based on their readings of power in different places and their own cosmovisions, Blackwell’s book is an important corrective to scalar analyses that invisibilize marginalized actors."

"Overall, Scales of Resistance is an invaluable contribution to social science and humanities literature. Blackwell’s rigorous analyses and insightful observations provide amuch-needed account of the vital roles of Indigenous women’s agency and activism in the Americas and in what will always be their forever home. Highly recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty; professionals."
