Systematizing racial differentiation through the legal regime of the indigenous: The contribution of Henry Solus
Type de matériel :

Published in 1927, the Traité de la condition des indigènes en droit privé (Treatise on the condition of indigenous people in private law) remains, to this day, a singular work within the legal doctrine of colonial law. It is the first and only attempt to systematize private law relations in colonial law. This article shows how “race” (anchored here in a logic of alteration and assignment) mobilized by Henry Solus helps to construct a category of indigenous on which is grounded the systematization he builds.
