Enduring Nations : Native Americans in the Midwest Hardback
by R. David Edmunds
Hardback
- Information
Description
Enduring Nations documents how tribal peoples have adapted to cultural change while shaping midwestern history.
Examining the transformation of Native American communities, which often occurred in response to shifting government policy, the contributors explore the role of women, controversial tribal enterprises and economies, social welfare practices, and native peoples' frequent displacement to locations such as reservations and urban centers.
Central to both past and contemporary discussions of Native American cultural change is whether Native American identity should be determined by genetics, shared cultural values, or a combination of the two. Contributors are Bradley J. Birzer, Brenda J. Child, Thomas Burnell Colbert, Gregory Evans Dowd, R.
David Edmunds, Brian Hosmer, Rebecca Kugel, James B.
LaGrand, Melissa L. Meyer, Lucy Eldersveld Murphy, Alan G. Shackelford, Susan Sleeper-Smith, and Stephen Warren.
