		Indigenous peoples may often be used in preference to these or other terms, as a neutral replacement where these terms may have taken on negative or pejorative connotations by their prior association and use.
		Indigenous peoples of the American continents are broadly recognised as being those groups and their descendants who inhabited the region before the arrival of European colonizers and settlers (i.e., Pre-Columbian).
		Indigenous peoples who maintain, or seek to maintain, traditional ways of life are found from the high Arctic north to the southern extremities of Tierra del Fuego.

		Indigenous peoples are a subjective controversy (A contentious speech act; a dispute where there is strong disagreement) according their nature of label.
		Indigenous peoples are sometimes referred to as aborigines, native peoples, first peoples, first nations (additional info and facts about first nations) or as autochthonous, a Greek term that means "sprung from the earth".
		Lumping indigenous peoples into one group ignores the vast amounts of diversity among them and at the same time imposes a uniform identity on them, which may not be historically accurate.

		In Europe the concept of a "national minority" is often used when referring to a distinctive group of people who have lived in a certain country for a long time and who are citizens of that country.
		On a world-wide scale, however, all indigenous peoples do not wish to be characterised as minorities because they are a majority in their own traditional residential area and they dispute the validity of the national borders of the present day.
		Although other people than the Sami in Finland are allowed to practise reindeer husbandry, it is the basis of their livelihood for the Sami and an important foundation of the Sami language and the Sami way of life as well as of their handicraft and utility articles and artistic expression.

		The respect that indigenous peoples feel for the earth means that in general they are careful not to disturb the ecological balance of their natural environment.
		That the interests of indigenous peoples can be damaged by development activities is apparent in particular from large-scale infrastructural projects, many of which deprive indigenous peoples of all or some of their land, encroach upon their traditional means of subsistence or force them to move elsewhere.
		Indigenous peoples are often placed at a disadvantage, even vis-a-vis their own government, by the weakness of their legal position, their lack of organisation, their inadequate access to government and judicial authorities and the media, with the result that they often lose out to the interests of the dominant party.

	WCC Consultation on "Racism today"
		Other Peoples in Russia - like for example Komi, Maries, Udmurt, Vepsians, Karelians and Mordvin - are national minorities which have many similarities with the above mentioned Indigenous Peoples, but they have in their time moved over to the agricultural technology of Indo-Europeans.
		Therefore the situation for these peoples is that they have been objects of different types of influences: dependent on geography as on historical shifts in the nation state's domestic and international politics.
		There are numerous examples of Indigenous Peoples who were directly forced out of their native areas, for the benefit of tourism and other livelihoods.

	Human Rights of Indigenous People: Presciptions
		"Under the theme 'Indigenous people: a new relationship - partnership in action', the main goal of the Decade is to further cultivate the partnership promoted between indigenous people and the international community" (http://www.un.org/ecosocdev/geninfo/indigens/dpi1608e.htm).
		The reason I believe that they had indigenous peoples in mind is because the language that is used to describe the groups to which the legislation is applicable suggests quite strongly indigenous peoples.
		It was adopted, on the one hand, in order to maintain and to develop the Europe's cultural traditions and heritage, and on the other, to respect an inalienable and commonly recognized right to use a regional or minority language in private and public life.

		When we in the Americas think of Arctic indigenous peoples, we are likely to fall into hemispheric ethnocentrism and ethnic stereotyping.
		While they are not genetically related to Arctic indigenous peoples such as the Inuit, many of their cultural practices are similar, and their cultural philosophy is non-confrontational.
		They are indigenous peoples of Europe, but other Arctic indigenous peoples do not always recognize the affinity because the Sami look European, although many of their cultural practices are similar to those of other indigenous Arctic peoples, such as the Inuit.

	Wicca: For the Rest of Us - Wicca is not Celtic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		First, the Celts are a hard to define people consisting of several hundred tribes, multiple languages that are roughly divided into two groups (though all descending from one language,) and a set of mythologies that can vary from one group to another.
		What these people less often consider is that the fact that indigenous peoples in the area of what is now England never practiced Wicca.
		It is a less romantic idea that points to heavier flaws in Murray and Gardner than just not naming which indigenous people they meant when they spoke of indigenous peoples, and the average person often feels too uneducated or unimportant to argue with the printed word.

	Powell's Books - The Barbarians Speak: How the Conquered Peoples Shaped Roman Europe by Peter S. Wells
		The Barbarians Speak re-creates the story of Europe's indigenous people who were nearly stricken from historical memory even as they adopted and transformed aspects of Roman culture.
		The Celts and Germans inhabiting temperate Europe before the arrival of the Romans left no written record of their lives and were often dismissed as barbarians by the Romans who conquered them.
		In so doing, he is the first to marshal material evidence in a broad-scale examination of the response by the Celts and Germans to the Roman presence in their lands.

		There is now a leaning towards city dwelling rather than agricultural, which the new non- socialist government would like to reinstate.
