Rezensionen

"Strakosch's work offers empirical evidence of exchanging Indigenous rights founded within precolonial settler sovereignty for domestic institutions founded in colonial settler states. The case study evidence is undeniable. ... this is a great book highlighting a sorely under-researched topic. ... My hope is that this work will cause contemporary Indigenous scholars to rethink their own policy positions." (Michael Lerma, NAIS, Vol. 4 (1), 2017)
