Opis produktu

Shireen Morris is Senior Lecturer at Macquarie Law School Australia.Explores the historical political theoretical and international contexts underpinning Indigenous constitutional recognition and frames its purpose as reform to reset and recalibrate the relationship between Indigenous peoples and the Australian state to ensure it is fairer than in the pastAnalyses and eliminates the possibility of a racial nondiscrimination clause or a qualified Indigenous head of power as recommended by committees of the pastPresents the argument for a constitutionally enshrined First Nations voiceShireen Morris is Senior Lecturer at Macquarie Law School Australia.This book makes the legal and political case for Indigenous constitutional recognition through a constitutionally guaranteed First Nations voice as advocated by the historic Uluru Statement from the Heart. It argues that a constitutional amendment to empower Indigenous peoples with a fairer say in laws and policies made about them and their rights is both constitutionally congruent and politically achievable. A First Nations voice is deeply in keeping with the culture design and philosophy of Australias federal Constitution as well as the long history of Indigenous advocacy for greater empowerment and selfdetermination in their affairs. Morris explores the historical political theoretical and international contexts underpinning the contemporary debate before delving into the constitutional detail to craft a compelling case for change.In May 2017 the First Nations formed a historic national consensus in the Uluru Statement from the Heart calling for a First Nations voice to be enshrined in the Australian Constitution. This book is a timely and important contribution to the legal and policy debate over indigenous constitutional recognition in Australia presenting an insightful analysis of the arguments and logic behind the proposal for a First Nations voice in the Constitution.1.
