Reclaiming Self-Determination from the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975
Wilson, Michael D.
International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), v25 n7 p905-912 2012
This paper examines the way the term "self-determination" is used in the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975. Its main thesis is that the Act does not in fact offer tribal governments self-determination, but instead reaffirms old power configurations that go back to the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934. (Contains 1 note.)
