The volume brings together a group of renowned legal experts and
activists from different parts of the world who, from international
and comparative perspectives, consider the right of indigenous
peoples to reparations for breaches of their individual and
collective rights.
The first part of the book is devoted to general aspects of this
important question, providing a comprehensive assessment of the
relevant international legal framework and including overviews of
the topic of reparations for human rights violations, the status of
indigenous peoples in international law and the vision of
reparations as conceived by the peoples concerned. The second part
embraces a comprehensive investigation of the relevant practice at
the international, regional, and national level, including some
pertinent, in-depth case-studies, offering a comparative
perspective on the ways in which the right of indigenous peoples to
reparation is realized worldwide. The contributions forming the
second part also examine the best practices for granting effective
reparations, according to the ideologies and expectations of the
communities concerned. The global picture painted by these
contributions offers a view of the status of relevant international
law that is synthesized in the final chapter, which also prescribes
the best practices and strategies to be adopted in order to
maximize concrete opportunities for indigenous peoples to obtain
effective redress.
As a whole, the volume offers a comprehensive vision of its
subject matter in international and comparative law, with a
practical approach aimed at supporting legal academics,
administrators, and practitioners concerned in improving the
avenues andmodalities of reparations for indigenous peoples.
