Paperback. H.C. Coombs, Centre for Resource and Environmental Studies, The Australian National University, Canberra. Condition remarks:Book: Fair Jacket: No dust jacketPages: Good Markings: No markingsCondition remarks: Condition as shown in imageA foundational work in Australian Indigenous policy studies, this research paper by H.C. Coombs presents a carefully reasoned argument for the establishment of a national representative body for Aboriginal Australians. Cres Paper 2: Towards A National Aboriginal Congress details the structural and political frameworks necessary to give Aboriginal communities a unified, sovereign voice in national governance and policy-making.
