The book delves into Australian First Nations constitutionalism by examining the chthonic constitutional traditions of three distinct Australian First Nations legal orders: the Warlpiri, Yolngu, and Pintupi legal orders. Through a comparative analysis, it seeks to identify commonalities and articulate an emergent legal theory that unites these three legal orders. This comparative analysis is conducted at the core levels of their legal traditions, utilizing a legal paradigm developed from an Australian Indigenous cosmological, ontological, and epistemological perspective. The proposed legal theory encompasses a comprehensive overview, general concepts, normative principles, and general working principles. By elucidating how Australian First Nations constitutionalism unfolds into holistic orders of spiritual, political, and legal authority, the book provides insights into the explainability of these orders in terms of legal theory. At the most fundamental level, this elaboration can contribute to the delineation of normative and legal constitutional patterns across Indigenous Australia.
