Abstract
ABSTRACT In this piece, I propose using a spiritual activism framework among like-minded communities to create a stronger opposition to the materialist mainstream worldview that promotes the commodification of the Earth and allows for unsustainable and damaging energy extraction. I suggest that spiritual activism is especially useful in this context because it illuminates the underlying philosophical differences that created clashes between Indigenous and European-Americans, and because it opens a way for members of groups with various Earth-based spiritual beliefs to move forward in concert.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Community Archaeology & Heritage is a new journal intended for participants, volunteers, practitioners, and academics involved in the many projects and practices broadly defined as ‘community archaeology’. This is intended to include the excavation, management, stewardship or presentation of archaeological and heritage resources that include major elements of community participation, collaboration, or outreach. The journal recognises the growing interest in voluntary activism in archaeological research and interpretation, and seeks to create a platform for discussion about the efficacy and importance of such work as well as a showcase for the dissemination of community archaeology projects (which might offer models of best practice for others). By inviting papers relating to theory and practice from across the world, the journal seeks to demonstrate both the diversity of community archaeology and its commonalities in process and associated theory. We seek contributions from members of the voluntary sector as well as those involved in archaeological practice and academia.
