Discovering Indigenous Lands: The Doctrine of Discovery in the English Colonies
Miller, Robert J. (Professor of Law, Lewis & Clark Law School, Portland, Oregon)
North America, New Zealand and Australia were colonised by England under an international legal principle that is known today as the doctrine of discovery. This book analyses how England applied this doctrine to gain control over the lands, property, government, and human rights of the indigenous peoples, and how this control continues to this day.
