Grass burning under our feet: Indigenous enterprise development in a political economy of whiteness
基于对澳大利亚北部和中部偏远地区原住民社区领袖、传统所有者、政府官员等的访谈，研究原住民企业发展的障碍，指出这些障碍是政治经济中“白人”话语实践的产物，并讨论对管理学习和公共政策的启示。
In this article we discuss some of our findings from two research projects that explore opportunities for Indigenous enterprise development in remote locations in Northern and Central Australia. Based on a series of focus groups and in-depth interviews with Indigenous community leaders, Traditional Owners, government officials, Land Council officials and other stakeholders, we discuss barriers to economic development faced by Indigenous communities in remote regions. We argue that many of these barriers are the material effects of discursive practices of ‘whiteness’ in the political economy. We discuss the relationships between institutions and Indigenous communities that constitute the Indigenous political economy and argue that these relationships are informed by discursive practices of whiteness and colonial-capitalist relations of power. We conclude by discussing the implications of our findings for management learning and public policy.
