Traditional Indigenous Justice - JUST 2102

This course explores the fundamental principles that inform traditional Indigenous North American justice systems and how these principles compare to values underpinning the settler-colonial Canadian justice system. Students will consider how incorporating traditional Indigenous practices into Canada's justice system reflects that Canada is a multi-juridical nation. Students will also explore the challenges and resistances that arise in this work.

Note: Prerequisites: INST 2000 OR (JUST 1101 and JUST 1102) Restricted to Indigenous Studies and Justice
