Description
Despite the tremendous progress in the development of scientific knowledge, the understanding of the causes of poverty and inequality, and the role of politics and governance in addressing modern challenges, issues such as social inclusion, poverty, marginalization and despair continue to be a reality across the world - and most often impact Indigenous Peoples. At the Margins of Globalization explores how Indigenous Peoples are affected by globalization, and the culture of individual choice without responsibility that it promotes, while addressing what can be done about it. Though international trade and investment agreements are unlikely to go away, the inclusion of Indigenous rights provisions has made a positive difference. This book explains how these provisions operate and how to build from their limited success.
Reviews / Votes
'Puig makes an enthralling and compelling case for why the interest of indigenous peoples and their perspectives ought to be integrated as an integral part of any debate concerning the future of international economic law in particular, and the socioeconomic well-being of our global community in general ... [The book is] a compelling blend of the author's diverse experiences working with many indigenous communities and foremost international financial institutions including the World Bank Group and its affiliate institution, the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes.' Jide James-Eluyode, Journal of International Economic Law '... an invaluable reference for anyone interested in Indigenous rights and international economic law.'
