Indigenous Governance

This pioneering book articulates and illustrates the difference in the perceptions of corporate governance from the dominant western society and its values and the Indigenous people. It covers areas such as the cross-cultural awareness and assists in the reconciliation process between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. Corporate governance in Indigenous organisations is an important issue that interests many different groups not only in Australia but around the world. This book about Indigenous governance and, in particular, within the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations, reveals that the corporate governance concepts have been mainly built around western theories. This pioneering book offers guidance on Indigenous governance not only in Australia but elsewhere as well, where corporate governance practices are of increasing and immense importance.Sharma, Kamlesh is the author of 'Indigenous Governance', published 2005 under ISBN 9780975802809 and ISBN 0975802801.
