Fragile Settlements compares the processes by which British
colonial authority was asserted over Indigenous peoples in
south-west Australia and Prairie Canada from the 1830s to the early
twentieth century. At the start of this period, in a humanitarian
response to settlers’ increased demand for land, Britain’s
Colonial Office moved to protect Indigenous peoples by making them
subjects under British law. This book highlights the parallels and
divergences between these connected British frontiers by examining
how colonial actors and institutions interpreted and applied the
principle of law in their interaction with Indigenous peoples “on
the ground.”
