Contents Between the procedure and substance of justice -- The imposition of colonial visions of justice -- First nations justice frames -- The British Columbia treaty process -- Visions of justice -- Visions of certainty Summary "In Between Justice and Certainty, Andrew Woolford examines the interplay between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal visions of justice and certainty in the first decade of the B.C. treaty process to determine whether there is a space between the two concepts in which modern treaties can be made." "Using interviews, field research, and both archival and modern treaty documents, Woolford argues that the goal of certainty is overriding the demand for justice, and suggests that greater attention to justice is necessary if we are to initiate a process of reconciliation between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples in British Columbia."--Jacket Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 203-216) and index Notes Master and use copy.
