Beschreibung
The description presents how Aboriginal land claims reshaped Australian law through pivotal years and profound personal histories. In November 1972 Gough Whitlam promised land rights to Aboriginal People in the Northern Territory. The legislation he introduced was substantially enacted by the Fraser Government in 1976. For 24 years between 1979 and 2002 Ross Howie SC acted for Aboriginal claimants in twenty-two traditional land claims and seven early native title cases. In requiring proof of spiritual affiliation, responsibility and traditional attachment to land the cases revealed significant accounts of cultural understanding and practice and extraordinary personal histories. It was a mind-enlarging experience for a lawyer and a unique period in Australian legal history.
