Native American Rights

By Uma Kukathas

Give your readers a comprehensive understanding on the development of rights for Native Americans. This book addresses four major court decisions, explaining them in detail and sharing majority and dissenting opinions. Legal experts, journalists, and other professionals then share essays that address the long-term implications of each court case. Chapter one teaches readers about affirming the limits of tribal sovereignty. Chapter two explains upholding congressional power over tribes. Chapter three explains compensation for illegal seizure of tribal lands. Chapter four explores whether religious freedom extends to the use of illegal substances.
