- Abstract: This essay engages both directly and indirectly with J. Edward Chamberlin's fine but insufficiently anti-capitalist book on land and narrative entitled "If This Is Your Land, Where Are Your Stories?: Finding Common Ground." The author commends the strengths of his work while expressing reservations about its discreetly aestheticizing tendencies, recourse to calculus, and impatience with postmodern and other forms of literary theory. The author attempts to counter these deficiencies (as he sees them) via strains of Marxist dialectic developed by Friedrich Engels, Fredric Jameson, and C. L. R. James, before turning to the work of James (Sákéj) Youngblood Henderson, a leading Indigenous authority on treaty and other forms of ceremony that helped constitute Canada historically and continue to do so today. The author concludes by arguing that a way beyond current denial or diminishment of Aboriginal and treaty rights in Canada may be found in a new convergence of Marxist and Indigenous theory and practice on the contested ground of the here and now.

- Abstract: Le présent article traite directement et indirectement du livre de J. Edward Chamberlin sur la terre et les histoires «If This Is Your Land, Where Are Your Stories?: Finding Common Ground», qu'il juge excellent quoique pas suffisamment anticapitaliste. L'auteur apprécie les points forts de cette œuvre tout en exprimant ses réserves concernant ses tendances discrètement embellissantes, ses recours au calcul et son impatience vis-à-vis du postmodernisme et d'autres formes de théorie littéraire. L'auteur tente de contrer ces lacunes (selon lui) avec des points dialectiques marxistes mis de l'avant par Friedrich Engels, Fredric Jameson et C. R. L. James, avant de se tourner vers l'œuvre de James (Sákéj) Youngblood Henderson, une importante autorité autochtone sur les traités et d'autres formes de cérémonies qui ont aidé à constituer l'histoire du Canada et continuent de le faire maintenant. L'auteur termine en alléguant qu'un moyen d'aller au-delà des dénégations actuelles ou de la réduction des droits autochtones ou conférés par un traité au Canada peut être offert par une nouvelle convergence de la théorie et de la pratique marxiste et autochtone mettant un accent contesté sur le moment présent.
