More on indigenous sovereignty: James S. Phillips, ‘The rights of indigenous peoples under international law’, Global Bioethics, 2015

10May15

Abstract: International law guarantees rights to indigenous peoples regarding traditional lands, knowledge, cultural preservation, and human security. This paper will examine the sources of these rights and legal remedies for violations of law. Protection of indigenous peoples’ cultures and resources contribute to the protection of the global environment.
