Aboriginal Justice and the Charter

David Milward … has undertaken a remarkably difficult task in Aboriginal Justice and the Charter. In these pages, he considers the broad range of issues necessary to make a case for the creation of free-standing Aboriginal justice programs, conceived and administered by Aboriginal communities themselves … Milward’s work is timely and is a welcome change from the timidity regarding Aboriginal justice reform that has characterized Canada for far too long.

Dwight Newman, Professor of Law, University of Saskatchewan, and author of Community and Collective Rights: A Theoretical Framework for Rights Held by Groups:

In this timely and unique book, David Milward furthers the presence of Indigenous voices in discussions of criminal justice issues while courageously demonstrating the complexity and pluralism of those voices. This is a book that should be widely read by scholars, policy makers, and others interested in Indigenous communities and criminal justice.
