Cis dideen kat – When the Plumes Rise
The Way of the Lake Babine Nation
La description
This book, the first to be written about the Lake Babine Nation in
north-central British Columbia, examines its traditional legal order,
self-identity, and their involvement in current treaty
negotiations. Changing relations between the First Nations and the
Canadian state have led to a new awareness of customary legal orders.
These orders can help the state accommodate diverse approaches to
judicial fairness and social justice, and offer a way for Aboriginal
nations to maintain their identity and moral order.
