The history that comes out of these land claim forums is often attacked for being "presentist": interpreting historical actions and actors through the lens of present day values, practices, and concerns. In Aboriginal Rights Claims and the Making and Remaking of History, a comparative study encompassing five former British colonies (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United States), Arthur Ray examines how claims-oriented research is framed by existing Indigenous rights law and claims legislation and how, in turn, it has influenced the development of laws and legislation. Ray also explores the ways in which the procedures and settings for claims adjudication--the courtroom, claims commissions, and the Waitangi Tribunal--have influenced the use of historical evidence, stimulated scholarly debates about the cultural/historical experiences of Indigenous people at the time of European contact and afterward, and have provoked reactions from politicians and scholars. While giving serious consideration to the arguments of presentism and the problems that overly presentist histories can create, Aboriginal Rights Claims and the Making and Remaking of History provides Aboriginal, academic, and legal communities with an essential perspective on how history is used in the Aboriginal claims process."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aMcGill-Queen's native and northern series ;$v87. 606 $aNative title (Australia) 606 $aAboriginal Australians--History 606 $aAboriginal Australians--Civil rights 606 $aIndigenous peoples$xClaims$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aIndigenous peoples$xLegal status, laws, etc$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aIndigenous peoples$xGovernment policy$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aIndigenous peoples$xColonization$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aIndigenous peoples$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xColonies$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNative title (Australia) 615 0$aAboriginal Australians--History 615 0$aAboriginal Australians--Civil rights 615 0$aIndigenous peoples$xClaims$xHistory 615 0$aIndigenous peoples$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xHistory 615 0$aIndigenous peoples$xGovernment policy$xHistory 615 0$aIndigenous peoples$xColonization$xHistory 615 0$aIndigenous peoples$xHistory 676 $a909.0971241 700 $aRay$b Arthur J.$0835462 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465286603321 996 $aAboriginal rights claims and the making and remaking of history$92067254 997 $aUNINA
