Neoliberal Indigenous Policy
Description
Reviews / Votes
"Strakosch's work offers empirical evidence of exchanging Indigenous rights founded within precolonial settler sovereignty for domestic institutions founded in colonial settler states. The case study evidence is undeniable. . this is a great book highlighting a sorely under-researched topic. . My hope is that this work will cause contemporary Indigenous scholars to rethink their own policy positions." (Michael Lerma, NAIS, Vol. 4 (1), 2017)
