This lively collection of essays from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commissions treaty think tank and authors commissioned by the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies was written to stimulate discussion and debate about a treaty. The publication reflects the complexity of the issues needing to be resolved on the road to a treaty and emanates from a reconciliation convention attended by Aboriginal leaders in Melbourne in May 2000. In the past three years promotional material has been widely distributed, workshops held and public lectures and forums convened. The campaign is ongoing, and governments, industry, schools, universities and others have had the chance to engage and contribute. Subjects covered include: sovereignty constitutional law relevance of a treaty in the Torres Strait perspective's from Indigenous youth and concepts of citizenry and identity.
