Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the courtroom cross-examination of three Aboriginal boys, the book critically analyzes how language used in legal settings perpetuates neocolonial control over Indigenous communities. It reveals that courtroom discourse constructs these boys not as victims but as deviant figures, raising fundamental questions about Aboriginal identity and rights. The study emphasizes the need to understand courtroom talk within its sociopolitical and historical context, advocating for significant reforms in courtroom evidence rules to address systemic inequalities.
