Pursuing Justice In Africa: Competing Imaginaries And Contested Practices, Jessica Johnson, George Hamandishe Karekwaivanane
Ohio University Press Open Access Books

These include activism, land tenure, international legal institutions, and postconflict reconciliation.

[Chapter 1 From] Hollow Justice: A History Of Indigenous Claims In The United States, David E. Wilkins
Bookshelf
This book, the first of its kind, comprehensively explores Native American claims against the United States government over the past two centuries. Despite the federal government's multiple attempts to redress indigenous claims, a close examination reveals that even when compensatory programs were instituted, native peoples never attained a genuine sense of justice.

How does the United States assure that guarantees made to tribal nations, whether through a century old treaty or a modern day …
