The Nile on eBay   FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE   Handbook of Indigenous Public Policy by Sheryl Lightfoot, Sarah Maddison

This ground-breaking Handbook explores the key legal, political and policy questions concerning the implementation of Indigenous rights across the world. An exciting mix of expert Indigenous and non-Indigenous contributors analyse the complex dynamics of contestation, engagement, advocacy and refusal between governments and Indigenous peoples, presenting a profound challenge to mainstream policy scholarship.Chapters employ both country-level case studies as well as global analyses, covering key themes such as self-determination, sovereignty, culture, land and territory. They showcase the extensive evidence that policy imposed on Indigenous peoples without their involvement is at best ineffective and at worst harmful. Through examining the ongoing impacts of colonisation, contributors identify future pathways for Indigenous public policy, including truth-telling processes, resurgence movements, and international human rights law. Ultimately, the Handbook highlights the vital importance and extensive policy benefits of treating Indigenous people as rights-bearing members of sovereign and self-determining Indigenous nations.The Handbook of Indigenous Public Policy will be essential reading for students and scholars of Indigenous studies, public policy, international relations, and political science. It will also be invaluable for policy-makers looking to centre Indigenous people and their rights in the policy-making process.

Review

'The fields of public policy and public administration have not yet caught up with the challenge of embedded Indigenous peoples. As an antidote to this blind spot this Handbook is essential reading for administrators and policy academics alike. The very existence of Indigenous peoples within a sphere of public policy immediately questions the sovereignty on which public policy depends. As the editors and contributors of this ground-breaking and timely book show in multiple instances, the legitimacy of public policy lies on shifting sands. The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples gives a framework to the chapters in this book, and the right to self-determination of Indigenous peoples within multi-sovereign states has been accepted by the UN General Assembly. Still, many Indigenous peoples go further, challenging the power of the state to regulate their lives. Each of the contributions demands recognition and respect for Indigenous peoples, with public policy generated in their own terms and reflecting their own cultures, processes and values. The many and diverse chapters of this book, from all over the world, demonstrating combined wisdom with many Indigenous contributions, mount a powerful argument for complacent governments, bureaucrats and academics to sit up and listen. They should keep this Handbook in their desk drawer, it points to the future.' -- Patrick Sullivan, University of Notre Dame Australia'Full of critique and aimed at healthier futures, the Handbook provides the most comprehensive and current snapshot of Indigenous policy at the global scale. It highlights a broad range of Indigenous aspirations in the face of ongoing injustice and in the process demonstrates Indigenous resilience in various contexts.' -- John Borrows, University of Toronto, Canada
