Land Rights Now cover

The first academic evaluation of Indigenous People's land rights from more than fifteen distinct contexts.

Accessible to a broad audience interested in land justice for Indigenous Peoples, this multidisciplinary book synthesises and presents the challenges and opportunities for advancing land rights, making it useful to academics, practitioners and policy makers. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.Land rights for Indigenous Peoples are a global phenomenon and have become an important part of the liberal democratic state. But despite the promise of restoring land rights to Indigenous Peoples, most land justice frameworks have preserved the status quo in what is a slow and arduous process. In this work, William Nikolakis draws from the diverse experiences of Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars and legal practitioners across the world to document both persistent barriers to 'Land Back' as well as opportunities to move forward for land justice. By bringing these voices together, Nikolakis seeks to share lessons from the land justice movement with the goal of advancing land rights for Indigenous Peoples across the world. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.
