This research documents and theorizes the ways in which Indigenous women of Taiwan practiced Indigenous sovereignty to achieve social transformation. After typhoon Morakot, a group of tribal Indigenous women participated in disaster governance. They were not powerless. Rather, they made power by caring for the community with consciousness of gender, and practiced cultural and political sovereignty. In so doing, they successfully reversed the disastrous state policy of forced relocation and returned to their homeland. The research contributes to studies of disaster governance, Indigenous peoples’ movements, and Indigenous feminism. |
