Across the globe, there are numerous examples of treaties,
compacts, or other negotiated agreements that mediate relationships
between Indigenous peoples and states or settler communities.
Perhaps the best known of these, New Zealand's Treaty of Waitangi
is a living, and historically rich, illustration of this types of
negotiated agreement, and both the symmetries and asymmetries of
Indigenous-State relations. This collection refreshes the scholarly
and public discourse relating to the Treaty of Waitangi and makes a
significant contribution to the international discussion of
Indigenous-State relations and reconciliation. The essays in this
collection explore the diversity of meanings that have been
ascribed to Indigenous-State compacts, such as the Treaty, by
different interpretive communities. As such, they enable and
illuminate a more dynamic conversation about their meanings and
applications, as well as their critical role in processes of
reconciliation and transitional justice today.

Is the role of the sports coach simply to improve sporting
performance? What are the key ethical issues in sports coaching
practice? Despite the increasing sophistication of our
understanding of the player-sport-coach relationship, the dominant
perspective of the sports coach is still an instrumental one,
focused almost exclusively on performance, achievement and
competitive success. In this ground-breaking new book, leading
sport scholars challenge that view, arguing that the coaching
process is an inherently moral one with an inescapably ethical
dimension, involving intense relationships between players and
coaches. The Ethics of Sports Coaching critically examines this
moral aspect, develops a powerful idea of what sports coaching
ought to be, and argues strongly that coaches must be aware of the
ethical implications of their acts. The book is structured around
four central themes: the nature of coaching, the character of the
coach, coaching specific populations and specific coaching
contexts. It explores in detail many of the key ethical issues in
contemporary sports coaching, including: coaching special
populations the ethics of talent identification understanding the
limits of performance enhancement coaching dangerous sports
expatriate coaching setting professional standards in sports
coaching. Combining powerful theoretical positions with clear
insights into the everyday realities of sports coaching practice,
this is an agenda-setting book. It is essential reading for all
students, researchers and practitioners with an interest in sports
coaching or the ethics and philosophy of sport.

For nine years, Carwyn Jones was at the helm of Welsh politics. As
First Minister from 2009 to 2018, he led the governance of an
increasingly devolving Wales through turmoil and success. Not Just
Politics follows Carwyn from his roots in a small corner of Wales
and childhood brought up as a Welsh speaker in Bridgend, to the
1980s miners' strike which inspired a career in politics. After
graduating with a degree in law from Aberyswyth, Carwyn juggled
being a barrister and local councillor while also caring for his
wife Lisa, who was diagnosed with leukaemia shortly after their
marriage. As part of the first cohort of Welsh Government
Ministers, Carwyn has been at the heart of the growing shift from
Westminster to Cardiff, and as First Minister he oversaw landmark
moments that put Wales firmly on the world stage.
Legal traditions respond to social and economic environments. Maori
author and legal scholar Carwyn Jones provides a timely examination
of how the resolution of land claims in New Zealand has affected
Maori law and the challenges faced by Indigenous peoples as they
attempt to exercise self-determination in a postcolonial world.
Combining thoughtful analysis with Maori storytelling, Jones's
nuanced reflections on the claims process show how Western legal
thought has shaped treaty negotiations. Drawing on Canadian and
international examples, Jones makes the case that genuine
reconciliation can occur only when we recognize the importance of
Indigenous traditions in the settlement process.
