Congratulations to Amanda Nettelbeck for publishing ‘Indigenous Rights and Colonial Subjecthood: Protection and Reform in the Nineteenth-Century British Empire’

Congratulations to Amanda Nettelbeck for the publication of Indigenous Rights and Colonial Subjecthood: Protection and Reform in the Nineteenth-Century British Empire (Cambridge University Press, 2019). The book charts how the 19th century British imperial imperative to protect indigenous rights represented more than moral obligation; it carried an agenda of legal reform that arose from the need to manage colonized peoples in an Empire where the demands of humane governance jostled with colonial growth.
