Reviews

The collection of contributions covers a complex variety of perspectives in the panorama of indigenous rights at sea, and fills in a gap in indigenous rights research by providing a rich and unique analysis of indigenous and traditional rights in marine areas ... The Rights of Indigenous Peoples in Marine Areas represents the first comprehensive effort to address legal discourses over indigenous rights in marine areas, focusing on their reception within diverse regional, national and transnational systems.
