La question des revendications foncières autochtones représente une problématique majeure de la recherche en anthropologie. Comment les systèmes fonciers autochtones sont-ils compris, et éventuellement traduits dans les termes des états dominants ? Comment ces traductions sont-elles concrètement prises en charge – au niveau légal, ou bien au niveau symbolique ? Toutes ces questions, lourdes de conséquences juridiques et pratiques, cristallisent les difficultés qui surviennent dans la confrontation, conceptuelle ou concrète, entre des pratiques et des systèmes de pensée profondément différents. Cet ouvrage répond à ces questions à travers douze contributions (études de cas et essais théoriques) de chercheurs issus de différentes branches des sciences sociales – anthropologues, politologues et géographes. Ces contributions abordent notamment la question du métissage, de la cohabitation et de la reconnaissance juridique, mais aussi celle des conflits sociopolitiques et économiques liés au foncier.

Kiewarra. Petite communauté rurale du sud-est de l'Australie. Ecrasée par le soleil, terrassée par une sécheresse sans précédent. Sa poussière. Son bétail émacié. Ses fermiers désespérés. Désespérés au point de tuer femme et enfant, et de retourner l'arme contre soi-même ? C'est ce qui est arrivé à Luke Hadler, et Aaron Falk, son ami d'enfance, n'a aucune raison d'en douter. S'il n'y avait pas ces quelques mots arrivés par la poste : Luke a menti. Tu as menti. Sois présent aux funérailles. Revenir à Kiewarra est la dernière chose dont Aaron a envie. Trop vives sont encore les blessures de son départ précipité des années auparavant. Trop dangereux le secret qu'il a gardé pendant tout ce temps. Mais Aaron a une dette, et quelqu'un a décidé que le moment est venu de la payer.

This book provides a clear and concise account of the main principles of administrative law. It sets those principles in historical, comparative and constitutional perspective. Principles of Administrative Law guides the reader through the complexities of the current law and provides an account of how it developed and where it might go in the years to come. This book tells not only what administrative law is but also what it is about. Unlike a traditional textbook, Principles of Administrative Law offers an uncluttered statement of the essentials of the subject. Unlike an 'outline' or 'introduction', however, it uses this statement of the basics as the foundation for an exploration of the law's origins and conceptual foundations and of its institutional and constitutional context. In addition, it covers various important topics not found in other administrative law books for students. It is a significant addition to the literature on Australian administrative law, and meets a real need for a short book that is both broad and deep in its treatment of this increasingly topical area of law.

The Oxford Handbook of the Australian Constitution offers a critical analysis of some of the most significant aspects of Australian constitutional arrangements, setting them against the historical, legal, political, and social contexts in which Australia's constitutional system has developed. It takes care to highlight the distinctive features of the Australian constitutional system by placing the Australian system, where possible, in a global perspective. Constitutional law provides the legal framework for the Australian political and legal systems, and thus touches almost every aspect of Australian life. The chapters are arranged in seven thematically grouped parts. The first, ‘Foundations’, deals with aspects of Australian history which have influenced constitutional arrangements. The second, ‘Constitutional Domain’, addresses the interaction between the Constitution and other relevant legal systems and orders, including the common law, international law, and State Constitutions. The third, ‘Themes’, identifies themes of special constitutional significance, including the legitimacy of the Constitution, citizenship, and republicanism. The fourth, ‘Practice and Process’, deals with practical issues relevant to constitutional litigation, including the processes, techniques, and authority of the High Court of Australia. The final three parts deal with the structural building blocks of the Australian constitutional system: ‘Separation of Powers’, ‘Federalism’, and ‘Rights’.
