International Indigenous Rights in Aotearoa New Zealand Paperback / softback
Edited by Andrew Erueti
Paperback / softback
Description
Over the past four decades, international indigenous rights have become a prominent aspect of international law and are now enshrined in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
Yet, while endorsed by Aotearoa New Zealand in 2010, little remains known about how these standards came about, how the international movement that created them was established, and the implications of these standards on national reforms already protecting Maori rights. International Indigenous Rights in Aotearoa New Zealand seeks to answer these questions.
This collection of essays places the Declaration in the context of New Zealand rights around such issues as Treaty settlements, mining policy and the status of Maori children.
Crucially, it also asks how Maori can hold New Zealand to account against international indigenous rights. Contributors: Natalie Baird, Claire Breen, Claire Charters, Sarah Down, Andrew Erueti, Kirsty Gover, Justice Matthew S R Palmer, Matthew S Smith, Fleur Te Aho, Linda Te Aho, Tracey Whare
