Opis

"The original - and often continuing - sin of countries with a settler colonial past is their brutal treatment of indigenous peoples. Duncan Ivison's book considers how these states can accommodate indigenous populations today, and contends that we need to move towards a historically and theoretically nuanced liberalism better suited to our times"--

Recenzje

'In this refreshingly clear and succinct book, Duncan Ivison argues against views of Indigenous rights that erroneously presuppose the legitimacy of the liberal state's unilateral assertion of sovereignty over Indigenous peoples. A must-read for political theorists.' Melissa S. Williams, University of Toronto 'This important work takes the historical and present injustices inflicted on Indigenous peoples seriously and presents one of the best liberal responses to them.' James Tully, University of Victoria, Australia
