Perceptions of Justice documents common emerging experience in Canada, Australia and New Zealand of growing significance to policy-makers.This book places criminal justice issues in contemporary politicalcontexts and relates them to practical concerns about the rights and aspirations of indigenous peoples for self-determination.With the objective of reducing the over-representation of indigenous people in crime statistics, international scholars and practitioners point to alternative strategies for community justice, crime prevention and social regeneration.They highlight the concerns of Native Canadians, New Zealand Maori and Australian Aboriginal people for local involvement in areas of social control and justice delivery and ways in which they are being achieved. Greater autonomy and empowerment of communities are shown to be the keys to effective reform.Hazlehurst, Kayleen M. is the author of 'Perceptions of Justice Issues in Indigenous and Community Empowerment' with ISBN 9781859720790 and ISBN 185972079X.
