'A path-breaking analysis of planning's complicity in colonialism, and the resulting social injustice for Indigenous peoples. Porter's genealogical analysis does for planning what Latour did for modernity. Her brilliant deconstruction of the colonial cultures of planning opens a space for a more transformative (post) colonial planning.' Leonie Sandercock, University of British Columbia, Canada 'Overall, this book tells many insightful and interesting stories about inappropriate planning practices within indigenous contexts. The book is targeted at academics rather than at practitioners and offers interesting, often provocative, views on matters of ontology and epistemology in the field of protected area and national park planning and management in settler states.' Housing Studies '... a volume that will find a useful role in planning and geography courses addressing indigenous issues and as an informed starting point to any serious study of planning and indigenous issues.' New Zealand Geographer
