Abstract

Kirstie Broadfield investigated the unequal relations of power between Indigenous Australians and the criminal justice system. She found that the unequal relations of power create a sense of 'deific authority' in criminal justice officers, resulting in them being more prone to inflicting symbolic, systemic, and subjective violence on Indigenous Australians.
