In 1788 the colony of New South Wales was established and the founding of Australia as a British colony had begun. The colony was settled on the basis of the doctrine of international law whereby the continent was deemed to be terra nullius—land belonging to no-one. Despite the obvious presence of Indigenous people, in the eyes of the British the land was considered to be practically unoccupied, without settled inhabitants and without settled law. The Colony was claimed for the British Sovereign on 26 January 1788. There is ongoing debate about the legal status of the ‘settlement’ as the land was clearly occupied and; there was no treaty and no (declared) war.

  • Australian Agricultural & Resource Economics Society
    Australian Agricultural & Resource Economics Society 43rd Annual Conference Christchurch, New Zealand January 20-22, 1999 Native Title and Associated Resource Use Issues: Australia1 Allan Padgett ABSTRACT This paper will briefly describe the history and intent of the NTA 1993; survey outcomes flowing from its implementation, especially in reference to economic implications of agreements between parties; and consider future prospects, particularly by reference to the amended legislation which came into force on 30 September 1998. The use of case studies will illustrate a highly varied range of positive outcomes, which might be seen as revealing a new willingness on the part of Australian society generally to engage positively with Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islanders on a scale not envisaged prior to the High Court’s Mabo decision in 1992. The paper considers the participation of the broader community and the acknowledgment of existing rights and interests, and includes reference to the issues of willingness and good faith on behalf of parties and government. It will be argued that the NTA 1993 is driving a process of reconciliation through the forging of new relationships, understanding and respect; awakening the country to opportunities for partnerships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians; and generally providing a force for economic recovery and independence from social welfare among Indigenous communities. Among other matters, the amended legislation promotes new opportunities for dealing with land and resource management issues in regional or area settings. Such Indigenous Land Use Agreements (ILUAs) have the potential to become broadly-used instruments for ensuring that native title and resource development become more closely related in terms of long-run regional partnerships deriving from an agreements culture, rather than being viewed as onerous matters to be dealt with - or avoided - according to the letter of the law.
