Country, Native Title and Ecology

Research output: Book/Research ReportAuthored Book

Abstract

The focus in this volume on native title and ecology is made because many traditional owners express their attachment for country through their unique ecologies, and the discipline of ecology’s focus on relationships links into the holistic language of country. Framing native title with ecological thinking also deliberately challenges the contributing authors to resist being led by the law, culture and bureaucracy of native title. Instead, we bring our attention to issues of land and water, the relationships Indigenous people hold with species and their ecologies, and the challenges and opportunities of native title to sustain life.
