Konzept

Indigenous Law predates the establishment of settler-colonial states. It persisted and kept developing up until today, and, contrary to ‘Aboriginal Law’ or ‘Indian Laws,’ it remains the creation of Indigenous peoples, a manifestation of their normative creativity. It is plural and offers many pathways to reclaiming cultural heritage and constructing alternative futures. This workshop provides the chance to discuss some of these possibilities.
