Summary/Abstract |
The articles in this second of a series of three issues edited by
faculty in the Political Science Department at the University of
Hawai'i at Manoa examine the concept of "indigeneity" as it
pertains to aspects of law, policy, and governance. Focused on
the array of temporal and historical issues surrounding nationhood,
citizenship, law, and policy, the authors interrogate how
historical legal systems evolve through control of and resistance
by indigenous peoples and what the actions by state actors
say about how legal institutions treat the concept of "indigeneity."
The key issues surrounding "indigeneity" as a site of
critical inquiry within legal systems and governmental structures
raise key questions that these articles explore: What new
policies and systems are being created in the wake of global imperialism,
the war on terror, and the policing of national borders?
How are indigenous peoples rearticulating understandings of
governance and policy in their struggles for recognition, independence,
self-determination, and sovereignty? Finally, what distinguishes
indigenous governance, law, and policy, and what are
the possibilities and challenges facing such institutions both
locally and transnationally?

Summary/Abstract |
Recent literature on natural resource governance has highlighted the consequences of a strong imprint of neoliberal political ideologies on current environmental policies. A parallel theme in the recent literature relates to claims pertaining to ownership and management of natural resources by indigenous minorities in post-colonial Western democracies who have been historically marginalised and impoverished by the aftermath of European colonisation. Recently, in order to respond to indigenous demands to settle long-standing grievances for the return of their ancestral lands and natural resources, some post-colonial governments have encouraged the development of indigenous self-governance and co-management initiatives to manage natural resources such as fisheries and forests. Based on a study of the recent Maori fisheries restitution policy initiatives in Aotearoa/New Zealand, this paper presents a preliminary interrogation of the new hybrid indigenous fisheries governance spaces within the bounds of a neoliberal fisheries management regime.
