Summary
This original book is the first comprehensive integration of political theory to explain Indigenous politics. It assesses the ways in which Indigenous and liberal political theories interact to consider the practical policy implications of the Indigenous right to self-determination. The author reveals Indigeneity's concern for political relationships, agendas, and ideas beyond the ethnic minority claim to liberal recognition. The implications for national reconciliation, liberal democracy, citizenship and historical constraints on political authority are explored. This innovative, theoretically sophisticated and vibrant work will be of broad international interest to a transcultural, transnational and global phenomenon
