西方人对当地人的看法是一种陈词滥调的错误信息的混合体。普遍的看法往往是，土著人民只是前进的障碍。即使是现在，历史的回声依然强烈。然而，今天，土著人民的土地是新的边疆，充满了工业社会梦寐以求的原材料。这种新的殖民主义让人回想起旧的：政治领导人、世界银行官员和跨国公司的头脑中也存在着同样的“文明”动力。然而，这是一笔毫不掩饰的财源，没有考虑到对这片土地或生活在那里的人们的长期影响。只有消除殖民关系本身，才能促成文化伙伴关系。
The Western view of native people is a cliched mixture of misinformation. The prevailing view has often been that indigenous peoples were merely obstacles to the onward march of progress. Even now the echoes of history remain strong. Today however the lands of indigenous peoples are the new frontier full of the raw materials coveted by industrial society. This new colonisation recalls the old: the same impetus to 'civilise' exists today in the minds of political leaders, World Bank officials and transnational corporations. Yet it is an ill-disguised bonanza with no thought for the long-term effects on the land, or the people who live there. Only the elimination of the colonial relationship itself can lead to a partnership of cultures.
