Invented Indian Cultural Fictions and Government Policies

This volume explores how cultural fictions promote divisiveness and translate into policy. Throughout, it reveals a deep and abiding respect for Indians, their histories, and their cultures, saving its critique for jaundiced academics and callow politicians. Representing years of cooperative effort, The Invented Indian brings together a group of leading scholars of North American Indians, most of them heavily involved in service and applied work on behalf of Indian clients, communities, and organizations.Clifton, James A. is the author of 'Invented Indian Cultural Fictions and Government Policies', published 1990 under ISBN 9781560007456 and ISBN 1560007451.
