To what extent and in what ways have Indigenous peoples used litigation in various countries? What has been the response of national judicial institutions to indigenous claims? How can we explain variations in interpretation of indigenous rights? Are there significant cross-fertilization in legal interpretation? What is the influence of international norms or international precedents on national indigenous rights regimes? Our panel presenters address these questions across four national cases: Sweden, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.
