The question of what rights might be afforded to Indigenous peoples
has preoccupied the municipal legal systems of settler states since
the earliest colonial encounters. As a result of sustained
institutional initiatives, many national legal regimes and the
international legal order accept that Indigenous peoples possess an
extensive array of legal rights. However, despite this development,
claims advanced by Indigenous peoples relating to rights to marine
spaces have been largely opposed. This book offers the first
sustained study of these rights and their reception within modern
legal systems. Taking a three-part approach, it looks firstly at
the international aspects of Indigenous entitlements in marine
spaces. It then goes on to explore specific country examples,
before looking at some interdisciplinary themes of crucial
importance to the question of the recognition of the rights of
Indigenous peoples in marine settings. Drawing on the expertise of
leading scholars, this is a rigorous and long-overdue exploration
of a significant gap in the literature.
