Biography

Joshua Ben David Nichols is Metis from Treaty 8 Territory in British Columbia. He teaches and publishes in legal theory, political philosophy and constitutional law. His research focuses on the role that imperial systems of internal colonization have played in the development of liberal democracies in the 20th century and the challenges these systems pose to constitutionalism, federalism and the rule of law going forward. His current research project examines the constitutional histories of the Dominions of Canada and South Africa from the post-WW1 move to independence to their ongoing projects of constitutional reconciliation.听聽

Professor Nichols is happy to supervise graduate students working on problems relating to constitutionalism in conditions of deep diversity. This includes questions broadly related to the history of British colonial imperialism and practices of constitutionalism as well as the comparative analysis of modern projects of constitutional reconciliation. He is particularly interested in supervising students working on issues relating to Canadian Aboriginal law, Federal Indian Law in the United States, and the constitutional implications of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.听
