This book brings together Indigenous, Third World and Settler
perspectives on the theory and practice of decolonizing law.
Colonialism, imperialism, and settler colonialism continue to
affect the lives of racialized communities and Indigenous Peoples
around the world. Law, in its many iterations, has played an active
role in the dispossession and disenfranchisement of colonized
peoples. Law and its various institutions are the means by which
colonial, imperial, and settler colonial programs and policies
continue to be reinforced and sustained. There are, however, recent
and historical examples in which law has played a significant role
in dismantling colonial and imperial structures set up during the
process of colonization. This book combines usually distinct
Indigenous, Third World and Settler perspectives in order to take
up the effort of decolonizing law: both in practice and in the
concern to distance and to liberate the foundational theories of
legal knowledge and academic engagement from the manifestations of
colonialism, imperialism and settler colonialism. Including work by
scholars from the Global South and North, this book will be of
interest to academics, students and others interested in the legacy
of colonial and settler law, and its overcoming.
