N2 - The legal outcomes the Gunditjmara achieved in the 1980s are often overlooked in the history of land rights and native title in australia. The High court Onus v Alcoa case and the subsequent settlement negotiated with the state of Victoria, sit alongside other well known bench marks in our land rights history, including the Gurindji strike (also known as the Wave Hill Walk-Off) and land claim that led to the development of land rights legislation in the Northern Territory. This publication links the experiences in the 1980s with the Gunditjmara’s present day recognition of native title, and considers the possibilities and limitations of native title within the broader context of land justice.
