This document presents a collection of articles discussing the need to restore self-determination of indigenous peoples, focusing on what this means in theory and how it is achieved in practice. Individual contributions focus on the situation of indigenous peoples in New Zealand, Latin America, Africa, Norway and Tibet and discuss issues such as 1) how states define who is indigenous; 2) the link between self-determination and indigenous well-being; and 3) states’ reluctance in implementing the UN’s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
