Abstract

"Indigenous Peoples and the Future of Federalism" is a book that explores the reconciliation of settler states' sovereignty with the legal and political orders of Indigenous nations in a just and sustainable way. The book focuses on the Canadian context but draws insights from other settler colonies as well. The authors argue for a renewed relationship between state and Indigenous sovereign authority, grounded in constitutional pluralism. The book examines the constraints of the existing constitutional framework, explores possibilities for reshaping Canadian federalism, and considers the potential role of the judiciary in generating constitutional change. It offers valuable insights into Indigenous-state relations and constitutional pluralism, making it essential reading for those interested in Canadian and comparative constitutionalism and Indigenous rights.
