Publication Date: 2003
Larissa Behrendt attacks the chasm which has grown between Indigenous lives and aspirations in Australia, and the 'terra nullius', which continues, despite Mabo, to pervade so much of Australia's mythology and policy. She proposes longer term, aspirational initiatives leading to institutional change that will facilitate greater rights protection, including: a preamble to the Constitution, a treaty, economic redistribution, alternative institutional forms, regional framework agreements, and a more energised politics Constitutional protection.
