American Indians and the Trouble with Sovereignty: A Turn Toward Structural Self

Description: American Indians and the Trouble with Sovereignty by Kouslaa T. Kessler-Mata Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description An examination of the concept and practice of contemporary tribal sovereignty which proposes that tribal self-determination might be better pursued within a federal framework. This fascinating study will be a key reference for researchers, graduate and undergraduate students in American political development, American law, and post-colonial studies. Publisher Description With tribes and individual Indians increasingly participating in American electoral politics, this study examines the ways in which tribes work together with state and local governments to overcome significant governance challenges. Much scholarship on tribal governance continues to rely on a concept of tribal sovereignty that does not allow for or help structure this type of governance activity. The resulting tension which emerges in both theory and practice from American Indian intergovernmental affairs is illuminated here and the limits of existing theory are confronted. Kessler-Mata presents an argument for tribal sovereignty to be normatively understood and pragmatically pursued through efforts aimed at interdependence, not autonomy. By turning toward theories of federalism and freedom in the republican tradition, the author provides an alternative framework for thinking about the goals and aspirations of tribal self-determination. Author Biography Kouslaa Kessler-Mata is Assistant Professor at the University of San Francisco. Prior to this position, Kouslaa served as a legislative fellow with the National Congress of American Indians in Washington DC and sat on the Board of Trustees for California Indian Legal Services.
