Abstract
For some indigenous groups, the right to ‘differential geographies’ is synonymous with the right to erect new border controls around places, but non-indigenous groups can lay equal claim to occupancy of, or at least a stake, in those places. The emphasis should not be on this geographical apartheid, but on a more subtle understanding of ‘strong’ indigenous claims to territory, and the complexities of variegated real world place-projects.
