Open publisher page 32 citations

Abstract

The presentations and articles in this symposium volume critically engage with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP) and the symposium question ‘Indigenous Survival: Where to from here?’ The contributors map the exclusion of Indigenous peoples from definition as peoples in international law, and their attempted domestication within colonial nations. The soft laws of the UNDRIP are examined for their potential to recognise and protect Indigenous peoples’ survival as peoples.
