Reviews

This book is a clear, concise, and comprehensive chronicling of options for reforming Australian law and politics related to Indigenous peoples. While this work is theoretically rich I especially appreciated the practical options for positive change which appear in every chapter. * John Borrows, Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Law, University of Victoria * Harry deftly seeks to find solutions to the seemingly intractable tension between Australia's Western-biased constitutional structure and Aboriginal aspirations for self-determination through the inclusion of their voice in Australian governance. It is original, superbly researched and will propel debate forward, which is sorely needed to remedy the illegitimacy of the state-imposed constitutional structure and provide some long-awaited justice for Aboriginal peoples. * Claire Charters, Associate Professor, Auckland Law School *
