A Third Way: Decolonizing the Laws of Indigenous Cultural Protection

Autor Hillary M. Hoffmann, Monte Mills
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 iul 2020
In A Third Way, Hillary Hoffmann and Monte Mills detail the history, context, and future of the ongoing legal fight to protect indigenous cultures. At the federal level, this fight is shaped by the assumptions that led to current federal cultural protection laws, which many tribes and their allies are now reframing to better meet their cultural and sovereign priorities. At the state level, centuries of antipathy toward tribes are beginning to give way to collaborative and cooperative efforts that better reflect indigenous interests. Most critically, tribes themselves are building laws and legal structures that reflect and invigorate their own cultural values. Taken together, and evidenced by the recent worldwide support for indigenous cultural movements, events of the last decade signal a new era for indigenous cultural protection. This important work should be read by anyone interested in the legal reforms that will guide progress toward that future.

Recenzii

'I couldn't put this down. A Third Way is a refreshing, powerful, and inspirational work because Hoffmann and Mills acknowledge tribal agency. Indians and tribes are not passive observers to federal, state, and business interests carving up America. They are active policy makers, not mere stakeholders seeking a voice, not mere victims lamenting the past. Indians and tribes tend to see the universe in terms of balance, not the zero-sum competition that dominates American politics. We should all hope Indians and tribes succeed because this philosophy is all about our collective futures.' Matthew L.M. Fletcher, Director of the Indigenous Law & Policy Center, Michigan State University
'Indian tribes have pulled themselves up from the oppressive policies of the past. There are many monuments to that – court decisions, tribally-driven federal statutes, and the truly substantial sovereign Native governments that govern the reservations today. A Third Way gives deep, unprecedented insight into modern Indian country by brightly recounting some of the innumerable stories of how individual tribes have made lasting advances in protecting specific, beloved places. This book captures the inspiring spirit of Indian country today as well or better than any other source.' Charles Wilkinson, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, University of Colorado, and author of Blood Struggle: The Rise of Modern Indian Nations
'Through a careful exploration of legal history and contemporary case studies, Hoffmann and Mills demonstrate how the US legal system has authorized and often encouraged the destruction of indigenous cultures. The authors also chart a new pathway for the future: one in which Indigenous cultural values help to drive public policy by providing an actual 'measure of comfortable justice,' not just for Indigenous peoples, but for all Americans.' Rebecca Tsosie, Regents Professor of Law, University of Arizona
