| Scope and content | File contains a presentation by James Zion. Zion, an American Navajo lawyer, discusses European colonial powers efforts to come to terms with Aboriginal law and governance institutions in the New World as it pertains to the question of "Would a separate Aboriginal justice system mean a single system or would it be composed of many systems?" Zion also discusses some of the Aboriginal justice systems in place within the Navajo Nation, and the United States generally. | |
