Le rapport de la Fee Vérité et Réconciliation est un vibrant appel à s’attaquer aux causes profondes de l’injustice subie par les peuples autochtones dans ce pays. L’une des voies prometteuses consiste à renforcer l’autonomie des communautés autochtones, conformément à la récente adhésion du Canada à la Déclaration des Nations unies sur les droits des peuples autochtones (DNUDPA). Le contrôle de l’administration de la justice dans les communautés autochtones, un phénomène qui begin lentement à émerger au Canada, est un élément central de l’autogestion. Le projet de recherche suggest la première étude transversale de la pratique émergente de l’administration de la justice autochtone au Canada et une analyse de ses implications en vertu du droit constitutionnel, du droit worldwide et du droit autochtone.

Le projet a quatre objectifs : 1/ Développer un cadre théorique pour la pluralisation de l’idée de l’Etat de droit et de la légitimité démocratique, afin d’argumenter que l’Etat ne peut pas valablement prétendre avoir le monopole de l’adoption et de l’software du droit sur un territoire donné. 2/ Analyser plusieurs questions complexes du constitutionnalisme canadien, y compris la mesure dans laquelle la safety des droits ancestraux et des droits issus de traités dans l’article 35 de la Loi constitutionnelle de 1982 exige que les peuples autochtones soient autorisés à établir leur propre administration de la justice. 3/. définir les implications de la nécessité pour les peuples autochtones d’exercer la gestion des ordres juridiques autochtones, comme le proclame la Déclaration des Nations Unies sur les droits des peuples autochtones, récemment approuvée par le gouvernement canadien. 4/. explorer les préceptes de la justice procédurale autochtone, automobile on ne peut pas supposer que les formes de droit développées dans la frequent regulation et le droit civil correspondent nécessairement aux establishments appropriées du droit autochtone.

Le projet implique des recherches en droit constitutionnel canadien, en droit constitutionnel comparé (en particulier en Colombie) et en droit worldwide.

{Qualifications} requises : Étudiants en BCL-JD, LLM ou DCL. Une formation en droits de l’homme internationaux, en droit constitutionnel avancé et en droit pénal avancé est un atout. La maîtrise de l’espagnol est un atout.
