Reviews

Well researched, Creating Indigenous Property is an excellent collection that makes a strong and original contribution to the field. - David Milward, Faculty of Law, University of Manitoba

Ultimately, with thorough examinations of Canadian legal instruments affecting Indigenous land and property rights, and lessons from the transnational context, Creating Indigenous Property examines ways to facilitate the debate on Indigenous land rights, promoting respect for Indigenous peoples diverse views and laws and exploring their compatibilization with Western legal mechanisms and systems. It is a very valuable collection for advocates of Indigenous land rights, policymakers, and scholars, in Canada and elsewhere. -- Ayla do Vale Alves * <em>American Society of International Law</em> * I would strongly recommend this collection as an important vehicle for developing a better understanding of how the 'capitalist-exploitation logic' informs our relationships with Indigenous Peoples in this country. -- F. Tim Knight, Osgoode Hall Law School, York University * <em>Canadian Law Library Review</em> *
