In Justice and Warfare in Aboriginal Australia, Christophe Darmangeat investigates warfare in pre-colonial Australia in relation to Aboriginal judicial systems.

Meticulously examining ethnographic sources, Christophe Darmangeat argues that warfare among Australian Aborigines was mostly an extension of their judicial systems. He demonstrates how violent conflict occurred when circumstances prohibited regulated proceedings.

Christophe Darmangeat is lecturer at the University of Paris.
