Indigenous Justice: New Tools, Approaches, and Spaces (Palgrave Socio-Legal Studies)

Indigenous Justice: New Tools, Approaches, and Spaces (Palgrave Socio-Legal Studies)

by Miriam Jorgensen (Editor), Miriam Jorgensen (Editor), Melissa L. Tatum (Editor), Jennifer Hendry (Editor)

Synopsis

This highly topical collection of essays addresses contemporary issues facing Indigenous communities from a broad range of multi- and interdisciplinary perspectives. Drawing from across the social sciences and humanities, this important volume challenges the established norms, theories, and methodologies within the field, and argues for the potential of a multidimensional approach to solving problems of Indigenous justice.

Stemming from an international conference on `Spaces of Indigenous Justice', Indigenous Justice is richly illustrated with case studies and comprises contributions from scholars working across the fields of law, socio-legal studies, sociology, public policy, politico-legal theory, and Indigenous studies. As such, the editors of this timely and engaging volume draw upon a wide range of experience to argue for a radical shift in how we engage with Indigenous studies.
