Relying upon information received from the elders of Lac La Martre, Northwest Territories, they have unearthed a sophisticated body of Dogrib law, the understanding of which has important implications for contemporary ways in which the Dogrib people and the department of justice can deal with social control. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe material is organized and presented in a way that makes it accessible to both Dene and non-Dene readers alike. The methodology of the book is one of \"participatory action research,\" in which the community itself owned and directed the research, training, and outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBy exposing the very different values and legal systems of the Dene and non-Dene, this book sets the framework for the possibility of a Dene-controlled and culturally appropriate justice system. The book will be of value to those interested in native self-government, constitutional rights, and Indigenous law, as well as to all those involved with Indigenous peoples. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joan Ryan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 189517662X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781895176629\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Calgary Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.40d","brand":"Joan Ryan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125514629375,"sku":"9781895176629","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_eba0f401-c523-4a0d-be24-4b4a2694690c.jpg?v=1687443074","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/doing-things-the-right-way-joan-ryan-9781895176629","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
