Book Synopsis Tribal Nations and Tribalist Economics by : Angelique EagleWoman
Download or read book Tribal Nations and Tribalist Economics written by Angelique EagleWoman and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poor quality of life and material impoverishment that is the situation for the majority of tribal citizens within the United States is unacceptable, especially in light of the U.S. policies that have created the poverty conditions faced by generations of Native Americans. This Article will examine the tribal quality of life and what laws, policies, and values have led to the contemporary situation. Part II will discuss the prosperity enjoyed by tribal peoples prior to the European invasion of mid-North America. In Part III, the historic causes of poverty will be examined as the British colonies gave way to the formation of the United States. By reviewing the historical factors that condemned tribal citizens to such intergenerational poverty, the contemporary circumstances facing tribal governments and their citizens will be brought into sharp focus. Part IV will examine the U.S. Indian policy of holding tribal lands in trust status and this policy's devastating consequences on tribal peoples. Part IV will also provide that returning full tribal jurisdiction over tribal lands without federal or state interference would remedy those consequences. To help readers understand fully the consequences of the federal trustee model over tribal resources, Part V will explore the abject intergenerational poverty experienced by Native Americans. Material poverty is not the only standard upon which to assess the quality of life for tribal citizens. In Part VI, the cultural wealth of tribal citizens will be examined to explain the tenacity and endurance that has allowed tribes to endure through the imposition of material impoverishment by the United States as trustee of tribal resources. This Article provides that within the Tribalist Economic framework tribal governments and citizens must continue to draw upon cultural wealth, tribal leadership values, and bicultural education to regain prosperous material quality of life. In conclusion, Part VII calls for realignment of the treaty partnership between tribal governments and the United States along with a return to the values embodied in Tribalist Economics for a return to cultural and material prosperity in Indian Country.
Book Synopsis Tribal Values of Taxation within the Tribalist Economic Theory by : Angelique EagleWoman
Download or read book Tribal Values of Taxation within the Tribalist Economic Theory written by Angelique EagleWoman and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tribal Nations in mid-North America currently exercise their inherent rights as self-governing sovereign peoples by imposing taxes within tribal territories. Taxation is one of the powers of government that flows from sovereign status. The success of tribal taxation has been curtailed by intrusion of the United States federal government and its component state governments within the tribal territory. In exploring the ramifications of U.S. economic interference in tribal economies, the tribal power of taxation will be the primary focus of this article.In Part I, the history of the United States seeking to diminish tribal sovereignty up to the current time period will be discussed. In Part II, an explanation of the current battleground over the tribal taxing jurisdiction, the key values that inform the planned economic activities of Tribal Nations, and the Tribalist Economic Theory will be explored. The focus of Part III involves the potential impact of international indigenous legal principles as they evolve to provide a strengthening of tribal sovereignty leading to sole taxation within the tribal territory. In the final section, Part IV, this article will conclude wtih the argument that Tribal Nations should exercise their sovereignty in applying taxes within the tribal territory as the exclusive taxing authority.
Book Synopsis Native American Tribalism : Indian Survivals and Renewals by : D'Arcy McNickle
Download or read book Native American Tribalism : Indian Survivals and Renewals written by D'Arcy McNickle and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1993-07-11 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrary to the white man's early expectations, the Indian tribes of North America neither vanished nor assimilated. Despite almost four hundred years of contact with the dominant--and often domineering--Western civilization, Native Americans have maintained their cultural identity, the size, social organization, and frequently the location of their population, and their unique position before the law. Now brought up to date with a new introduction by Peter Iverson, this classic book reviews the history of contact between whites and Indians, explaining how the aboriginal inhabitants of North America have managed to remain an ethnic and cultural enclave within American and Canadian society from colonial times to the present day. The late D'Arcy McNickle--renowned anthropologist and member of the Flathead Tribe of Montana--shows that while Native Americans have always been eager to adopt the knowledge and technology of white society, they carefully adapt these changes to fit into their own culture. He maintains that by emphasizing tribal self-determination, the federal government can best help Native Americans to modernize and achieve independence even as they preserve their ancient heritage. Iverson's introduction to the new edition discusses McNickle's singular contribution to Native American Studies, and provides an overview of recent events and scholarship in the field. He has also brought up to date the appendix describing the geographical distribution of the principle tribes in the United States and Canada. With its comprehensive coverage and unique perspective, the new edition of Native American Tribalism is essential reading for those who want to understand the past and present of our first Americans.

Book Synopsis The Tribal Moment in American Politics by : Christine K. Gray
Download or read book The Tribal Moment in American Politics written by Christine K. Gray and published by AltaMira Press. This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the “tribal moment in American politics,” which occurred from the 1950s to the mid- to late-1970s, American Indians waged civil disobedience for tribal self-determination and fought from within the U.S. legal and political systems. The U.S. government responded characteristically, overall wielding its authority in incremental, frequently double-edged ways that simultaneously opened and restricted tribal options. The actions of Native Americans and public officials brought about a new era of tribal-American relations in which tribal sovereignty has become a central issue, underpinning self-determination, and involving the tribes, states, and federal government in intergovernmental cooperative activities as well as jurisdictional skirmishes. American Indian tribes struggle still with the impacts of a capitalist economy on their traditional ways of life. Most rely heavily on federal support. Yet they have also called on tribal sovereignty to protect themselves. Asking how and why the United States is willing to accept tribal sovereignty, this book examines the development of the “order” of Indian affairs. Beginning with the nation’s founding, it brings to light the hidden assumptions in that order. It examines the underlying deep contradictions that have existed in the relationship between the United States and the tribes as the order has evolved, up to and into the “tribal moment.”

Book excerpt: “Surprising and remarkable…Toggling between big ideas, technical details, and his personal intellectual journey, Greene writes a thesis suitable to both airplane reading and PhD seminars.”—The Boston Globe Our brains were designed for tribal life, for getting along with a select group of others (Us) and for fighting off everyone else (Them). But modern times have forced the world’s tribes into a shared space, resulting in epic clashes of values along with unprecedented opportunities. As the world shrinks, the moral lines that divide us become more salient and more puzzling. We fight over everything from tax codes to gay marriage to global warming, and we wonder where, if at all, we can find our common ground. A grand synthesis of neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, Moral Tribes reveals the underlying causes of modern conflict and lights the way forward. Greene compares the human brain to a dual-mode camera, with point-and-shoot automatic settings (“portrait,” “landscape”) as well as a manual mode. Our point-and-shoot settings are our emotions—efficient, automated programs honed by evolution, culture, and personal experience. The brain’s manual mode is its capacity for deliberate reasoning, which makes our thinking flexible. Point-and-shoot emotions make us social animals, turning Me into Us. But they also make us tribal animals, turning Us against Them. Our tribal emotions make us fight—sometimes with bombs, sometimes with words—often with life-and-death stakes. A major achievement from a rising star in a new scientific field, Moral Tribes will refashion your deepest beliefs about how moral thinking works and how it can work better.
Book Synopsis Suicide of the West by : Jonah Goldberg
Download or read book Suicide of the West written by Jonah Goldberg and published by Crown Forum. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An urgent argument that America and other democracies are in peril because they have lost the will to defend the values and institutions that sustain freedom and prosperity. Now updated with a new preface! “Epic and debate-shifting.”—David Brooks, New York Times Only once in the last 250,000 years have humans stumbled upon a way to lift ourselves out of the endless cycle of poverty, hunger, and war that defines most of history. If democracy, individualism, and the free market were humankind’s destiny, they should have appeared and taken hold a bit earlier in the evolutionary record. The emergence of freedom and prosperity was nothing short of a miracle. As Americans we are doubly blessed, because the radical ideas that made the miracle possible were written not just into the Constitution but in our hearts, laying the groundwork for our uniquely prosperous society. Those ideas are: • Our rights come from God, not from the government. • The government belongs to us; we do not belong to it. • The individual is sovereign. We are all captains of our own souls, not bound by the circumstances of our birth. • The fruits of our labors belong to us. In the last few decades, these political virtues have been turned into vices. As we are increasingly taught to view our traditions as a system of oppression, exploitation, and privilege, the principles of liberty and the rule of law are under attack from left and right. For the West to survive, we must renew our sense of gratitude for what our civilization has given us and rediscover the ideals and habits of the heart that led us out of the bloody muck of the past—or back to the muck we will go.

Book Synopsis Reservation "Capitalism" by : Robert J. Miller
Download or read book Reservation "Capitalism" written by Robert J. Miller and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-03-09 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book investigates the history and future of American Indian economic activities and explains why tribal governments and reservation communities must focus on creating sustainable privately and tribally owned businesses if reservation communities and tribal cultures are to continue to exist. Native American peoples suffer from health, educational, infrastructure, and social deficiencies that most Americans who live outside of tribal lands are wholly unaware of and would not tolerate. By creating sustainable economic development on reservations, however, gradual, long-term change can be effected, thereby improving the standard of living and sustaining tribal cultures. Reservation "Capitalism": Economic Development in Indian Country supplies the true history, present-day circumstances, and potential future of Indian communities and economics. It provides key background information on indigenous economic systems and property rights regimes in what is now the United States, and explains how the vast majority of native lands and natural resource assets were lost. The book focuses on strategies for establishing privately and publicly owned economic activities on reservations and creating economies where reservation inhabitants can be employed, live, and buy the necessities of life, thereby enabling complete tribal self-sufficiency and self-determination.

Book Synopsis Understanding Tribes and Tribalism by : Dr. Yousif Abdelrahim
Download or read book Understanding Tribes and Tribalism written by Dr. Yousif Abdelrahim and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To distinguish tribes and tribal societies from tribalism, it’s important to know about tribes, tribalism, tribal behavior, and why tribes are important in some countries. In this scholarly work, the author examines the origin of tribes and why it is necessary to have tribes in several cultures. In addition, the book provides empirical evidence that links tribalism to ethically suspect behaviors, such as unfairness, dishonesty, a lack of equity, and corruption. The author explains why globalization has reduced corruption in many governments worldwide. Generally speaking, the author argues a myriad of reasons cause people in tribal countries to behave unethically, including tribalism and other tribal consequences such as oppression. Other topics include: the history of ancient tribes, the importance of tribes for several societies, tribal identity, and why people are blindly loyal to a tribe. Filled with examples, the book explains why tribalism is a cultural behavior different from other cultural values. The author also argues that researchers should consider adding tribalism to Hofstede’s Cultural Values that differentiate societies from one another. The book includes a tribalism measure for those who want to measure tribalism at the individual level.
Book Synopsis The Dying Citizen by : Victor Davis Hanson
Download or read book The Dying Citizen written by Victor Davis Hanson and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling author of The Case for Trump explains the decline and fall of the once cherished idea of American citizenship. Human history is full of the stories of peasants, subjects, and tribes. Yet the concept of the “citizen” is historically rare—and was among America’s most valued ideals for over two centuries. But without shock treatment, warns historian Victor Davis Hanson, American citizenship as we have known it may soon vanish. In The Dying Citizen, Hanson outlines the historical forces that led to this crisis. The evisceration of the middle class over the last fifty years has made many Americans dependent on the federal government. Open borders have undermined the idea of allegiance to a particular place. Identity politics have eradicated our collective civic sense of self. And a top-heavy administrative state has endangered personal liberty, along with formal efforts to weaken the Constitution. As in the revolutionary years of 1848, 1917, and 1968, 2020 ripped away our complacency about the future. But in the aftermath, we as Americans can rebuild and recover what we have lost. The choice is ours.
Download or read book Tribal Worlds written by Brian Hosmer and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tribal Worlds considers the emergence and general project of indigenous nationhood in several geographical and historical settings in Native North America. Ethnographers and historians address issues of belonging, peoplehood, sovereignty, conflict, economy, identity, and colonialism among the Northern Cheyenne and Kiowa on the Plains, several groups of the Ojibwe, the Makah of the Northwest, and two groups of Iroquois. Featuring a new essay by the eminent senior scholar Anthony F. C. Wallace on recent ethnographic work he has done in the Tuscarora community, as well as provocative essays by junior scholars, Tribal Worlds explores how indigenous nationhood has emerged and been maintained in the face of aggressive efforts to assimilate Native peoples.
