For more than 500 years, Indigenous laws have been disregarded.
Many appeals for their recognition under international law have
been made, but have thus far failed - mainly because international
law was itself shaped by colonialism. How, this volume asks, might
international law be reconstructed, so that it is liberated from
its colonial origins? With contributions from critical legal
theory, international law, politics, philosophy and Indigenous
history, this volume pursues a cross-disciplinary analysis of the
international legal exclusion of Indigenous Peoples, and of its
relationship to global injustice. Beyond the issue of Indigenous
Peoples' rights, however, this analysis is set within the broader
context of sustainability; arguing that Indigenous laws, philosophy
and knowledge are not only legally valid, but offer an essential
approach to questions of ecological justice and the co-existence of
all life on earth.
