This book explores the extent to which indigenous claims as recorded in the United Nations fora can be accommodated by current international law. By doing so it also highlights how the indigenous debate has stretched the contours and ultimately evolved international human rights standards. The book first reflects on the international law responses to the theoretical arguments on cultural membership. After a comprehensive analysis of the existing instruments on indigenous rights the discussion turns to self-determination.
