Herausgeber: Neale, Timothy; Turner, Stephen

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Other People's Country collects together scholars from the fields of anthropology, cultural studies, cultural geography, critical legal studies, and settler colonial studies to reconsider the attempts to make bodies of water 'lawful' within settler colonial sites today. Focusing upon case studies from Australia, Aotearoa/New Zealand, New Caledonia and the USA, this book brings new critical insight to the entanglement of settler and Indigenous laws in the governance, ownership and 'entitlement' of water. This book was originally published as a special issue of Settler Colonial Studies.
