Book Synopsis Alaska Native Policy in the Twentieth Century by : Ramona Ellen Skinner
Download or read book Alaska Native Policy in the Twentieth Century written by Ramona Ellen Skinner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the application of federal Indian policy to Alaska Natives in the 20th century, a process driven by the federal government's desire to acquire Indian land. Twentieth century Indian policy, as applied in Alaska, has oscillated between encouraging the privatization of land and assimilation of Native Alaskans into the dominant society, and allowing for Native autonomy and self-government. The Alaska Reorganization Act of 1936, better known as the Alaska Native New Deal, promoted Native self-government through constitutions and native self-sufficiency through corporations within geographic limits of designated reservations. In Alaska, the federal government's termination policy extended state jurisdiction over Native peoples after World War Two. A new policy of self-determination was initiated by the passage of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act of 1971. With this act, 40 million acres were conveyed to newly created Native corporations. Alaska Natives would achieve self-determination by participation in corporate decisions. This history of the legislation and implementation of federal Indian policy in Alaska explores the tensions and reversals expressed through successive legislative acts, and focuses upon the implications of this policy for Native Alaskans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIV This book, the first of its kind, comprehensively explores Native American claims against the United States government over the past two centuries. Despite the federal government’s multiple attempts to redress indigenous claims, a close examination reveals that even when compensatory programs were instituted, Native peoples never attained a genuine sense of justice. David E. Wilkins addresses the important question of what one nation owes another when the balance of rights, resources, and responsibilities have been negotiated through treaties. How does the United States assure that guarantees made to tribal nations, whether through a century old treaty or a modern day compact, remain viable and lasting? /div
Book Synopsis Village Journey by : Thomas R. Berger
Download or read book Village Journey written by Thomas R. Berger and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act passed by Congress in 1971, hailed at the time as the most liberal settlement ever achieved with Native Americans, granted 44 million acres and nearly $1 billion in cash to a new entity -- Native corporations. When this book was published in 1985, that settlement was bitterly resented by the Alaska Natives themselves. Thomas R. Berger, invited by the Inuit Circumpolar Conference to head the Alaska Native Review Commission, traveled to sixty-two villages and towns, held village meetings and listened to testimony from Inuit, Aboriginal peoples, and Aleuts. His report, Village Journey, suggests changes in the law and public attitudes that will be required to reach a fair accommodation with the Alaska Natives and enable them to keep their land for themselves and for their descendants. The author's new Preface deals with problems still facing Alaska Natives and their corporations. This is a new release of the book published in May 1995.

Book excerpt: Thirty years after the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act became law, Alaska Natives are subject more than ever to a dizzying array of laws, statutes, and regulations. Once again, Case and Voluck have provided the most rigorous and comprehensive presentation of the important laws and concepts in Alaska Native law and policy to date. This second edition provides a much-expanded and up-to-date analysis of ANCSA, the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, and four fields of Alaska Native law and policy: land, human services, subsistence, and self-government. The authors also trace the development of the Alaska Native organizations working to influence and change these policies. Like the first edition, the expanded Alaska Natives and American Laws is the essential reference for anyone working in Native law, policy, or social services, and for scholars and students in law, public policy, environmental studies, and Native American studies.

Download or read book Going Native written by Shari M. Huhndorf and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-26 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1800's, many European Americans have relied on Native Americans as models for their own national, racial, and gender identities. Displays of this impulse include world's fairs, fraternal organizations, and films such as Dances with Wolves. Shari M. Huhndorf uses cultural artifacts such as these to examine the phenomenon of "going native," showing its complex relations to social crises in the broader American society—including those posed by the rise of industrial capitalism, the completion of the military conquest of Native America, and feminist and civil rights activism. Huhndorf looks at several modern cultural manifestations of the desire of European Americans to emulate Native Americans. Some are quite pervasive, as is clear from the continuing, if controversial, existence of fraternal organizations for young and old which rely upon "Indian" costumes and rituals. Another fascinating example is the process by which Arctic travelers "went Eskimo," as Huhndorf describes in her readings of Robert Flaherty's travel narrative, My Eskimo Friends, and his documentary film, Nanook of the North. Huhndorf asserts that European Americans' appropriation of Native identities is not a thing of the past, and she takes a skeptical look at the "tribes" beloved of New Age devotees. Going Native shows how even seemingly harmless images of Native Americans can articulate and reinforce a range of power relations including slavery, patriarchy, and the continued oppression of Native Americans. Huhndorf reconsiders the cultural importance and political implications of the history of the impersonation of Indian identity in light of continuing debates over race, gender, and colonialism in American culture.

Book Synopsis A Dangerous Idea by : Peter Metcalfe
Download or read book A Dangerous Idea written by Peter Metcalfe and published by University of Alaska Press. This book was released on 2014-11-15 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of America s oldest civil rights organizations, the Alaska Native Brotherhood set out to win citizenship for all Alaska Natives. After securing the basic rights of voting and education in the 1920s, they continued the campaign for full civil rights and, at the 1929 Grand Camp Convention in Haines, took up the banner of aboriginal claims. The fight for a fair settlement to those claims, from 1929 to 1971, proved to be the organization s longest and most complex battle. They had to first establish the basis for aboriginal claims, then win an equitable settlement. Since enacted in 1971, the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act has played a dominant role in the emergence of Alaska Natives as fully vested citizens of the 49th State. Of national significance, a section of ANCSA made possible the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980, which assigned wilderness protection to over 80 million acres of Alaska, at the same time doubling the acreage within the national park system. But without the Alaska Native Brotherhood, it is unlikely there would ever have been a significant Native claims settlement. During the Alaska Statehood Movement, only the ANB and its allies stood in the way of government attempts to extinguish or prematurely settle aboriginal claims. This book tells the story of the men (and many women) who found a way to win recognition of their indigenous rights using the government s own court system. Their strategies and tactics led to rare successes for Native Americans their nearly two hundred year effort to define and protect their rights under US constitutional law. "
