This book is concerned with the contrasting juridical narratives of the coloniser and the colonised - specifically, of non-Indigenous and Indigenous law - and their expression in law and literature. While the Indigene before the law is subject to the violence of its determinate impositions, this book draws on a range of contemporary theorists to argue that Indigenous narrative, particularly as it appears in Indigenous authored literature, evokes a disruptive and transformative dynamism within non-Indigenous law. In so doing, the book addresses the troubled juxtaposition of law and justice.
