Abstract
Contesting Native Title was the second of two books by David Ritter in 2009 about
native title. The first book, The Native Title Market, was a short, incisive affair
examining the politics of negotiations between Indigenous groups and companies. Contesting Native Title provides a far more detailed engagement with the whole native title system in Australia: its history, structure, the ‘actors’, and their performance. The book gives a political and social explanation of how native title developed and operates, rather than detailing its legal content and structure.
