Description and Table of Contents

Description

Because Native Americans are today recognized simultaneously as sovereign tribal groups and as American citizens, they present American society and its policy-making processes with a problem fundamentally different from that posed by other ethnic minorities. The contributors to this volume discuss the historical background, certain pathologies of Indian-white relations, questions of legal sovereignty and economic development, and efforts to find new ways of successfully resolving current contriversies.
