Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Over the past twenty years, American Indian policy has shifted from self-determination to 'forced federalism,' as indigenous nations in the United States have encountered new threats from state and local governments over such issues as taxation, gaming, and homeland security. During the forced federalism era (1988-present), public perceptions of indigenous peoples as 'rich Indians' have been just as damaging to Native nations as anti-sovereignty legislation. This book examines how state governments have manipulated 'rich Indian' images when setting policies targeting indigenous peoples and discusses how indigenous nations have responded politically to these contemporary threats to their nationhood.
