Description

This scholarly work by Oxford University Press examines the doctrine of discovery, the international legal principle that underpinned European colonisation of North America, New Zealand, and Australia from the fifteenth through twentieth centuries. The book presents new historical and legal evidence exploring how England justified sovereign and property claims over Indigenous territories and peoples through this doctrine. Drawing on under-explored sources, it provides fresh insight into how the doctrine of discovery shaped colonial expansion across multiple nations, making it essential reading for anyone studying international law, colonial history, Indigenous rights, and the legal foundations of contemporary land disputes in former English colonies.

Key Features

Focuses on the doctrine of discovery as applied across Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States during centuries of European colonisation.

Presents new primary material and legal evidence that challenges existing historical understanding of how discovery doctrine justified territorial claims.

Published by Oxford University Press, USA, offering peer-reviewed academic expertise on international law and colonial legal history.

Addresses the historical roots of contemporary Indigenous land rights issues and the legal principles that continue to affect these territories.

Combines historical research with legal analysis to illuminate how European powers claimed sovereignty over Indigenous lands and peoples.
