5.0 out of 5 stars
First-rate introduction to American Indian law & policy,
By Along Red River of the North "JMS" (Moorhead, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Cherokee Cases: The Confrontation of Law and Politics (Paperback)
An excellent, brief, and well-written and researched melding of politics and history, focusing on the first major constitutional crisis of the new American republic. Professor Norgren correctly concludes that the principled and persistent effort of the Cherokees should be a shining example for all American Indians (and non-Indians) to follow in the quest to maintain and expand fundamental human rights. The larger question that still faces Americans today is why has the U.S. political system been unable to find a way of incorporating cultural or national diversity within the constitutional framework of a federal republic, and instead chosen to remove, marginalize, assimilate or terminate Native Americans?
