Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the public sphere of justice in the contemporary internal colonial contexts of Australia and Canada. More specifically, it examines the way in which Indigenous actors are generally impeded from participating in public disputes of justice on equitable and self-determined terms. It develops and applies a position centred on the recent theoretical work of Nancy Fraser, and particularly her thinking around the concept of "abnormal justice". Fraser's reflections on the deeply contested nature of justice in contemporary times - and the accompanying absence of agreement

This thesis is about the decolonisation of juvenile justice in New South Wales. It considers how ‘decolonisation’ might be understood, realised and contested in Aboriginal communities in New South Wales. This thesis uses ‘Aboriginal Patrols’—a term which refers collectively to Night Patrols, Streetbeats and other forms of Aboriginal community policing—as a lens through which to critically examine contemporary issues in the policing of Indigenous Australian communities and, more broadly, as a way of exploring some of the complexities involved in thinking and practising the decolonisation of j

Abstract:
The Green New Deal has gained international significance as the only prominent climate legislation in the United States. The Green New Deal has also become emblematic of a larger movement for climate justice; however, further analysis of the Green New Deal and its assumptions indicates that it falls short of enacting meaningful justice for those most effected by climate change, but least responsible for causing it. This shortcoming is due to the absence of calls to decolonize. Because of the large role U.S. militarism and imperialism play in contributing to the climate crisis, decolonization m

Abstract:
Recent decades have marked growing academic and scientific attention to the role of indigenous knowledge in climate change adaptation, mitigation, and detection strategies. However, how indigenous knowledge is incorporated is a point of contention between self-identifying indigenous groups and existing institutions which combat climate change. In this thesis, I argue that the full inclusion of indigenous knowledge is deterred by certain aspects of modernity. In order to overcome the problems of modernity, I argue that a recognition theory of justice is needed as it regards to indigenous knowle

In spite of legislative, judicial, and governmental initiatives, Indigenous youth continue to face over-representation in the Canadian criminal justice system.

The lives of Indigenous Peoples, their compatriots, future generations, nonhuman, and physical environments are inextricably entangled.

Abstract:
Australian research confirms that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experience high levels of social inequality, racism and injustice. Evidence of discrimination and inequality is most obvious within the criminal justice system where they are seriously over-represented. The Australian news media plays a large part in reinforcing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander inequality, stereotypes and racist ideology within specific situations such as the Northern Territory Emergency Response and the Redfern riots. This study widens the scope from how the media reports a single criminal jus

Cette thèse de socio-histoire, basée sur l'exploitation d'archives nationales du Mexique, cherche à comprendre la production de justice sociale à travers l'éducation mexicaine dans la période postrévolutionnaire, de 1921 à 1940. Elle montre que la politique éducative, conçue sur la base de l'ambition démocratique d'unité nationale et d'intégration citoyenne, a conduit à la réduction des inégalités scolaires en dépit d'une cristallisation des inégalités sociales<br>This socio-historical dissertation, based on the use of national archives in Mexico, seeks to understand the production of social j

Abstract:
Utilising a critical theoretical perspective, this work examines contemporary corporatised tourism and capitalist globalisation. This analysis suggests that marketisation limits the understanding of the purposes of tourism to its commercial and “industrial” features, thereby marginalising wider understandings of the social importance of tourism. Sklair’s conceptualisation of capitalist globalisation and its dynamics, as expressed in his “sociology of the global system” (2002), is employed to understand the corporatised tourism phenomenon. This thesis explains how a corporatised tourism se

Abstract:
Cette thèse a pour principal objet la reconnaissance du local et de l’autochtonie au sein des aires protégées en général et des Parcs nationaux français en particulier. Du global au local, elle tend à voir ce processus comme résultante de la montée en puissance d’un principe axiologique non nécessairement nouveau, mais qui conditionne néanmoins de manière croissante la légitimité et l’efficacité de l’action publique environnementale. La reconnaissance du local et de l’autochtonie serait ainsi en particulier internationalement devenue l’une des conditions de réalisation d’une plus grande justic

Within the Latin American state Constitutions, is the establishment of prior consultation for theindigenous peoples legitimate?

Abstract:
Depuis plusieurs décennies en Amérique latine, les luttes des peuples indigènes pour faire accepter et reconnaître leurs cultures propres, se sont orientées vers des demandes politiques et juridiques. Le rôle des alliés politiques de ces peuples dans l’émergence de cette requête a été déterminant. Le cas de la Bolivie constitue un cas exemplaire des luttes indigènes, avec une proportion importante de sa population s’auto-identifiant à des groupes ethniques, ainsi qu’avec l’arrivée au pouvoir du « premier paysan indigène » du pays, Evo MORALES, en 2005.
