Compromised Jurisprudence: Native Title Cases Since Mabo

This book explores the development of native title law in Australia, tracing the evolution of the courts' thinking from the original decision in Mabo v Queensland [No.2] through to significant High Court decisions in 2001.

Through a series of discrete analyses of key cases, including Western Australia v Ward and Yorta Yorta, the book provides a detailed understanding of the underlying themes and contradictions in the law, as well as a timeline of events that enables readers to map the trajectory of native title doctrine.
