This book considers the increasing influence of indigenous groups as key audiences, collaborators, and authors with regards to their own linguistic documentation and representation. The chapters critically examine a variety of North American case studies to reflect on the forms and effects of new collaborations between language researchers and indigenous communities, as well as the types and uses of products that emerge with notions of cultural maintenance and linguistic revitalization in mind.
