Description

This guide provides a reliable resource on the federal law of American Indians. Its authoritative text is drawn from primary sources of judicial decisions, statutes, and regulations that comprise the essentials of this complex body of law. The work emphasizes both the historical development of Federal Indian Law, with attention to the shifting governmental policies underlying it, and recent matters such as the evolution of Indian gaming, issues arising under the Indian Child Welfare Act, and the present enforcement of treaty rights. It addresses the policy and law applicable to Alaska Natives but does not deal with Native Hawai’ians.
