Coles American Indian Tribal Law at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Nearly every American Indian tribe has its own laws and courts. Taken together, these courts decide thousands of cases. Many span the full panoply of law--from criminal, civil, and probate cases, to divorce and environmental disputes. American Indian Tribal Law , now in its Second Edition , surveys the full spectrum of tribal justice systems. With cases, notes, and historical context, this text is ideal for courses on American Indian Law or Tribal Governments--and an essential orientation to legal practice within tribal jurisdictions. New to the Second Edition:
A new chapter on professional responsibility and the regulation of lawyers in tribal jurisdictions
Enhanced materials on Indian child welfare
Additional materials on tribal laws that incorporate Indigenous language and culture
Additional examples from tribal justice systems and practice
Recent and noteworthy cases from tribal courts
Professors and students will benefit from:
A broad survey of dispute resolution systems within tribal jurisdictions
A review of recent flashpoints in tribal law, such as
internal tribal political matters, including intractable citizenship and election disputes
enhanced criminal jurisdiction over nonmembers and non-Indians
tribal constitutional reform, including a case study on the White Earth Nation
Cases and material reflecting a wide range of American Indian tribes and legal issues
Excerpts and commentary from a wellspring of current scholarship
