Sinopsis

Indigenous Law Systems explores the intricate legal frameworks that have sustained indigenous societies for generations, offering a vital perspective on justice beyond state systems. The book emphasizes the structure, function, and enduring relevance of customary laws, highlighting how these systems reflect unique cultural values and social norms. Many indigenous systems prioritize community participation and restorative justice, offering alternatives to Western legal traditions. The book navigates the historical marginalization of indigenous legal systems due to colonialism, examining contemporary efforts to revitalize and integrate these practices. It progresses from introducing core concepts like indigenous sovereignty and legal pluralism to exploring philosophical underpinnings, analyzing global case studies (land rights, family law), and addressing contemporary challenges. The book also connects to anthropology, political science, and environmental studies, showcasing how indigenous law plays a role in protecting natural resources and promoting sustainable development. Through ethnographic studies, legal documents, and interviews, the book provides a comprehensive look at the practical applications and challenges faced by indigenous legal systems. This approach makes it valuable for policymakers, legal professionals, and anyone interested in indigenous rights and alternative approaches to justice, promoting a more nuanced understanding of law and its potential for social harmony.

    Throughout history there has always been a need, in military forces, for special units. In the past, these units have usually been ad hoc formations that were disbanded after their mission was complete. It has only been since the early 1950s that such units have remained active, but even in recent times special purpose, special mission units have been organized and used for a period of time or for a specific mission and then either deactivated or replaced by other units. 
     
     
     
    This unique approach to the history of American special forces examines their development through a number of operations, ranging from the French and Indian War in the eighteenth century through to the Vietnam War. From the Son Tay raid to the Force at la Difensa and Rogers' Rangers, the operations are diverse in both organization and purpose, but all contributed to the overall mission of their theater or larger organization, thus proving the continuing need for special units throughout history and even today.

    An Australian True Crime investigation of wrongful imprisonment by the bestselling author of The Kingpin and the Crooked Cop. 
     
     
    Nine wrongful imprisonments. Nine innocent men and women freed. 
     
    Australia has a robust legal system. According to conventional wisdom, only the guilty end up behind bars. The reality is far more complex and, for First Nations Australians and other minorities in particular, the law can become a trap - one that has condemned completely innocent people to years, even decades, of wrongful imprisonment. 
     
    Impeccably researched and compelling told, Falsely Convicted exposes shocking injustices in all their devastating detail. These cases reveal how fragile truth can be, how easily lives can be destroyed, and how freedom - when it arrives - often comes only after everything else has been lost. 
     
    There's teacher Josephine Greensill, whose life was upended by allegations from two former students from three decades before. Henry Keogh, who discovered his fiancée dead in the bath, only to be accused - and convicted - of her murder due to catastrophic forensic failures. And Gene Gibson, an 18-year-old Aboriginal man from one of Australia's remotest communities, convicted of a killing by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, hindered by language barriers and entrenched prejudice. 
     
     
    In Falsely Convicted, Walkley Award–winning crime reporter and bestselling author Neil Mercer turns his investigative skills toward the most chilling crimes of all: the ones committed by the system itself.

    ohn Locke: Enlightenment philosopher, father of liberalism, inventor of “natural rights,” and accidental spiritual patron of land developers, libertarians, and your uncle who won’t shut up about property taxes. 
    In this gloriously sarcastic takedown of one of Western philosophy’s most over-quoted minds, Sophia Blackwell (Kant You Not, No Self, No God, No Clue) guides you through Locke’s greatest hits—including: 
    The blank slate theory, which basically says you’re born dumb and the world makes you worse 
    His ideas on identity, which collapse the second you forget your phone password 
    His version of consent, which mostly consists of “You didn’t leave, so I assume you’re fine with it.” 
    And of course, property rights—where mixing your labor with the earth somehow makes it yours, and stealing land becomes morally correct as long as you bring a shovel 
    Locke’s political philosophy inspired democracies, revolutions, and every 400-comment Reddit thread titled “Taxation is theft.” 
    This is not a respectful biography. 
    This is a roast. A eulogy. A survival guide for understanding how Locke gave us: 
    Liberalism 
    Landlords 
    Legal headaches 
    And a political system that thinks fencing off a patch of dirt = moral superiority 
    Perfect for: 
    Recovering philosophy students 
    Political skeptics 
    Enlightenment haters 
    Property law survivors 
    And anyone who wants to laugh while questioning whether government is just a giant metaphor for a really passive-aggressive roommate agreement 
    You don’t need to read Two Treatises of Government. 
    You just need to know Locke said, “I think I own that,” and people believed him.
