"Written with passion by a group of experts in the field of indigenous rights, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the current developments concerning the realisation and enforcement of these rights. The focus on indigenous Sámi communities renders the reading of this book particularly engaging for a European audience. while the wider international and domestic contexts are undoubtedly interesting for all readers working in the spectrum of disciplines associated with indigenous rights, including international human rights law, cultural heritage law, land rights, environmental law, and procedural justice."- Andrzej Jakubowski, XXXVII Polish Yearbook of International Law, Warsaw, 2018, pp. 303-307 (DOI 10.7420/pyil2017p)
