Indigenous rights in Australia are at a crossroads. Over the past
decade, neo-liberal governments have reasserted their claim to land
in Australia, and refuse to either negotiate with the Indigenous
owners or to make amends for the damage done by dispossession. Many
Indigenous communities are in a parlous state, under threat both
physically and culturally. In Sovereign Subjects some of Indigenous
Australia's emerging and well-known critical thinkers examine the
implications for Indigenous people of continuing to live in a state
founded on invasion. They show how for Indigenous people,
self-determination, welfare dependency, representation, cultural
maintenance, history writing, reconciliation, land ownership and
justice are all inextricably linked to the original act of
dispossession by white settlers and the ongoing loss of
sovereignty. At a time when the old left political agenda has run
its course, and the new right is looking increasingly morally
bankrupt, Sovereign Subjects sets a new rights agenda for
Indigenous politics and Indigenous studies.
