Kirsty Gover is the Director of the Comparative Tribal Constitutionalism Research Programme, co-sponsored by CREEL, IILaH and the CCCS. The study focuses on the governance institutions and constitutions of tribal communities in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States. These define the jurisdictional interface between tribes and other governments in settler societies. The study examines the ways in which tribal communities define and express their own jurisdiction, an under-interrogated aspect of indigenous governance scholarship. It includes analysis of agreements between tribal and other governments on resource management and the joint use and stewardship of land. A book and several articles focussing on the membership regimes in tribal constitutions, will be published in 2010.
