The Indian Tribal Economic Development and Contracts Encouragement Act of 2000: Smoke Signals of a New Era in Federal Indian Policy? |
33 Connecticut Law Review 667 (Winter, 2001) |
Today we again take up the long saga of this country's relationship with Indian country, drawing on a body of law more stable than the conflicting shifts in governmental policy on which it lies-but bearing scars of these shifts in its own ambiguities. Federal Indian policy has been distinctly striated over its two-century span. Changing economic... |

The federal-Indian relationship . is like no other in the world.
