Neoliberal Indigenous Policy cover

This book examines recent changes to Indigenous policy in English-speaking settler states, and locates them within the broader shift from social to neo-liberal framings of citizen-state relations via a case study of Australian federal policy between 2000 and 2007.

“Strakosch’s work offers empirical evidence of exchanging Indigenous rights founded within precolonial settler sovereignty for domestic institutions founded in colonial settler states. The case study evidence is undeniable. … this is a great book highlighting a sorely under-researched topic. … My hope is that this work will cause contemporary Indigenous scholars to rethink their own policy positions.” (Michael Lerma, NAIS, Vol. 4 (1), 2017)
