This article explores the place of the archive in the context of land claims research. This essay develops a critical approach to identity technopolitics with the aim of helping historians working with indigenous communities to ask new kinds of questions about the relationships and subject positions opened up by archivization and the myriad other technologies of land claims research. Since researchers first began preparing for the Canadian case, Delgamuukw’ and Gisday'wa v. The Queen, four decades ago, the immense stores of documentary evidence generated for the trial have given ground to numerous new claims and conflicts. Tracing the experiences of one prominent Gitxsan historical researcher who has leveraged his own archive and expertise to build genealogies for hundreds of individuals, I explore the intimate disappointments and impossible obligations that indigenous historians must mediate.

4.档案馆中的技术政治：主权，研究和日常生活

本文在土地所有权研究的背景下探讨了档案馆的位置。本文提出了一种身份技术政治学的批判方法，其目的是帮助与土著社区合作的历史学家提出新的问题，这些问题涉及通过档案管理和无数其他土地所有权研究技术而建立的关系和主题地位。自研究人员开始为加拿大案件做准备以来，Delgamuukw'和Gisday'wa诉女王案，四十年前，为审判产生的大量文献证据为许多新的主张和冲突奠定了基础。追溯一位著名的Gitxsan历史研究人员的经验，他利用自己的档案和专业知识为数百个人建立了家谱，我探索了土著历史学家必须调解的内心失望和不可能承担的义务。
