This edited volume explores new directions in research on indigenous peoples and their rights. The book proposes a move towards a field of 'critical indigenous rights studies', characterised by taking a realist (as opposed to an idealised) approach towards indigenous peoples combined with an interdisciplinary approach.

Ellen Desmet is assistant professor of migration law at the Faculty of Law and Criminology of Ghent University, Belgium. She is a member of the Human Rights Centre and of the Centre for the Social Study of Migration and Refugees (CESSMIR). Her PhD research concerned indigenous peoples' rights in the context of nature conservation, with a case study on Peru (KU Leuven, 2010).

Katrijn Vanhees is a PhD researcher (2014-2018) at the Human Rights Centre of Ghent University. She holds master's degrees in History and Law, both obtained at Ghent University. She is an affiliated researcher of the Centre for Gender Studies, University of Rwanda. Her PhD focuses on improving land rights for women in Rwanda. The research investigates the underlying causes of women's restricted access to land in Rwanda by studying the gender-based division of socio-economic power and resources in the household and the local community as a whole. In addition, it analyses how this gender-bargaining concept is articulated in judicial mediation cases at the Abunzi (local mediators) level.
