You may have an idea in mind of what Indigenous Studies is or what it should be. But in truth there is no uniform definition. Some of us view it as a specialization within Ethnic studies. Some of us as a politically fought for space to represent Indigenous intellectual traditions and scholarship, and some of us a place to experience culture and build community. We took an empirical approach to this question and content analyzed 238 Indigenous studies websites across Canada, the US, Australia, and New Zealand to see how the discipline was representing itself.
