- This project output takes the longer form of a book. Indigenous people face complex problems when it comes to the protection and use of their knowledge. The project involved a multi-layered process of investigation drawing on socio-legal methods, the legal analysis of intellectual property concepts, as well as insights from the disciplines of anthropology and ethno-linguistics. Over two hundred people were interviewed. To win trust, the author spent long periods of time with indigenous communities in remote locations of Australia over five years. This complex and extended period of data collection produced a large body of material for analysis.
