This book offers an Indigenous supplement to the rich and growing
area of visual legal scholarship. Organized around three
narratives, each with an associated politico-poetic reading, the
book addresses three major global issues: climate change, the trade
in human body parts and bio-policing. Manifesting and engaging the
traditional storytelling mode of classical Indigenous ontology,
these narratives convey legal and political knowledge, not merely
through logical argument, but rather through the feelings of law
and the understanding of lawful behaviour produced by their rhythm.
Through its own performativity, therefore, the book demonstrates
how classical Indigenous legal traditions remain vital to the now
pressing challenge of making peace with the earth.
