Contested identities and histories: Shaw v Wolf -- Conclusion."Aboriginal people have been able to use the courts to try to seek redress, particularly when political options have been limited. To do this they have had to use historical arguments, and as such history and historians have had to enter the courtroom. This highly original book brings together one of Australia's leading historians with two younger legal scholars to examine the ways in which history and the law have interacted in Australia. Far from being an abstract discussion, the book examines hundreds of federal court cases, interviewing judges, litigants, claimants and historians."--Provided by publisher.Aboriginal AustraliansLand tenureAboriginal AustraliansLegal status, laws, etcAboriginal AustraliansCivil rightsLaw and anthropologyAustraliaAustraliaRace relationsAustraliaPolitics and governmentAboriginal AustraliansLand tenure.Aboriginal AustraliansLegal status, laws, etc.Aboriginal AustraliansCivil rights.Law and anthropology346.940432Curthoys Ann801636Genovese Ann1113245Reilly Alexander1507757MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780953003321Rights and redemption3738714UNINA
