Australia is one of the only liberal democracies still grappling with such a fundamental question. The idea of constitutional recognition of Indigenous Australians has become a highly political and contentious issue. It is entangled in institutional processes that rarely allow the diversity of Indigenous opinion to be expressed. With a referendum on the agenda, it is now urgent that Indigenous people have a direct say in the form of recognition that constitutional change might achieve. It's Our Country- Indigenous Arguments for Meaningful Constitutional Recognition and Reform is a collection of essays by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander thinkers and leaders including Patrick Dodson, Noel Pearson, Dawn Casey, Nyunggai Warren Mundine and Mick Mansell. Each essay explores what recognition and constitutional reform might achieve-or not achieve-for Indigenous people. 650 0 $a Aboriginal Australians $x Legal status, laws, etc. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007100477 650 0 $a Aboriginal Australians $x Government relations. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85009596 650 0 $a Aboriginal Australians $x Government relations $v Northern Territory. 650 0 $a Aboriginal Australians $x Civil rights. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009113347 650 0 $a Constitutional law $z Australia. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008101594 650 7 $a Aboriginal Australians $x Civil rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00794502 650 7 $a Aboriginal Australians $x Government relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00794522 650 7 $a Aboriginal Australians $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00794534 650 7 $a Constitutional law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00875797 651 7 $a Australia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204543 653 $a Australian 655 7 $a Essays. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919922 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919922 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026094 700 1 $a Davis, Megan, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr2006003373 700 1 $a Langton, Marcia, $d 1951- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82223234 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180127034741.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F3DCB33C033911E8972C924897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
