AbstractFrom Introduction:
"Indigenous landowners in both Australia and Papau New Guinea today enjoy a far greater level of participation in the development of their land than was the case a decade ago. The reasons for this enhanced participation in each case are different, but both situations have generated demands to better articulate between Anglo-Australian and Indigenous systems of natural resource control and management. This paper explores the way in which organizational forms, in particular representative bodies, are being used to bridge this gap." | Document Type: | Conference Paper |
