THE VANISHING INDIAN RETURNS: TRIBES, POPULAR ORIGINALISM, AND THE SUPREME COURT |
57 Saint Louis University Law Journal 297 (Winter 2013) |
As the nation faces cultural divides over the meaning of the Founding, the Constitution, and who owns these meanings, the Court's embrace of originalism is one strand that feeds the divide. The Court's valuing of the original interpretation of the Constitution has reinforced the Founder fetishism also found in popular culture, specifically within... |

Tribal Membership and Indian Nationhood |
37 American Indian Law Review Rev. 1 (2012-2013) |
American Indian tribes are in a crisis of identity. No one can rationally devise a boundary line between who is an American Indian and who is not. And yet, each federally recognized tribe has devised a legal standard to apply in deciding who is a member and who is not. Despite some ambiguity and much litigation, these are relatively bright lines.... |

The theory of natural rights respected the... |

UNCOUNSELED TRIBAL COURT GUILTY PLEAS IN STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS: INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS VERSUS TRIBAL SELF-GOVERNANCE |
111 Michigan Law Review 617 (February, 2013) |
Indian tribes in the United States are separate sovereigns with inherent self-governing authority. As a result, the Bill of Rights does not directly bind the tribes, and criminal defendants in tribal courts do not enjoy the protection of the Sixth Amendment right to counsel. In United States v. Ant, a defendant-- without the legal assistance that a... |

WHO CONTROLS TRIBAL MEMBERSHIP? THE LEGAL BACKGROUND OF DISENROLLMENT AND TRIBAL MEMBERSHIP LITIGATION |
2013 Aspatore 5293043 (October, 2013) |
In the case of most American Indian tribes, the tribes themselves have historically had the power to determine tribal membership. For centuries, American Indian tribes banished people as punishment for serious offenses. In recent years, however, a trend has been evident with tribes canceling membership, or disenrolling tribal members, due to... |

The concept of economic development sounds deceptively simple. Build a product. Sell consumer goods. Provide a service. Advertise. Generate income that can be used, in turn, to buy goods and services from others. In reality, economic development generally, and the development of an economy specifically, is far from simple.
