"This book charts an intriguing path through Indigenous intellectual property issues from authors at the forefront of the Indigenous law revitalization movement. Beyond constituting simply a subset - 'cultural property' - of Western intellectual property categories and their standard economic framing, the artefacts, performances, and know-how considered here are understood as playing crucial governance roles within evolving legal orders. The authors use stories and other materials from five Indigenous nations to draw out the legal logics in which creative products participate, redrawing the 'clash' of intellectual property paradigms as interjurisdictional problems to be confronted in practical ways. The chapters provide varied case studies ideal for teaching materials or for those seeking to deepen their understanding of how the 'intergenerational conversation' around Indigenous intellectual property is evolving in context."--Kirsten Anker, Associate Professor in the Faculty of Law, McGill University "This pathbreaking book begins the crucial process of freeing intellectual property scholars, policymakers, and practitioners from stereotypical generalizations about pan-indigenous and Western legal orders governing knowledge. By concretizing and contextualizing the dynamism of several different indigenous legal systems, the authors reveal the rarely examined depth of existing Indigenous intellectual property laws. And their insightful observations and engaging narratives help readers see just how far these laws may reach."--Jeremy de Beer, Professor of Law, University of Ottawa.
