Reservation Capitalism: Economic Development in Indian Country: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Reservation Capitalism: Economic Development in Indian Country" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Native American peoples suffer from health, educational, infrastructure, and social deficiencies that most Americans who live outside of tribal lands are wholly unaware of and would not tolerate. By creating sustainable economic development on reservations, however, gradual, long-term change can be effected, thereby improving the standard of living and sustaining tribal cultures.

Reservation Capitalism: Economic Development in Indian Country supplies the true history, present-day circumstances, and potential future of Indian communities and economics. It provides key background information on indigenous economic systems and property rights regimes in what is now the United States, and explains how the vast majority of native lands and natural resource assets were lost. The book focuses on strategies for establishing privately and publicly owned economic activities on reservations and creating economies where reservation inhabitants can be employed, live, and buy the necessities of life, thereby enabling complete tribal self-sufficiency and self-determination.

Acknowledgments

I dedicate this book to my parents, James B. Miller and Hazel L. Miller (Captain). My dad taught me everything I know about small family businesses during the time I worked for him from 19681987 at Jim Miller's Used Cars, Inc., in Portland, Oregon. He created and operated his business for nearly 52 years from 1946 to the very day he died in 1997. My mom taught me about economics, budgeting, and the value of a dollar. She provided the seed money to start our family business by working in the Portland shipyards during World War II as a riveter and welder, and she also did the bookkeeping for the company for its first seven or eight years of existence. I owe them everything I am today.

I also gratefully acknowledge all the people who made this book possible and assisted me and supported me in seeing it to completion: Molly Smith, Leslie Miller, and Amanda Breunig. I thank Professor Alex Skibine, Steve Bahnson, and Jean Edwards for reading and commenting on earlier drafts of the book.

I also thank the people who generously gave me their time in interviews and personal conversations: Chief Glenna Wallace, Second Chief Jack Ross, Chairman Antone Minthorn, Chairman Clifford Lyle Marshall, Chief Charles Enyart, Danny Captain, Howard Birdsong, Danny Jordan, Jolanda Ingram-Marshall, Chairman Duane Sherman, Gary George, Kathleen Flanagan, Bill Tovey, Roberta Conner, and Tom Hampson.

I also thank Lynn Williams of the Lewis & Clark Law School Library, who endured years of countless requests from me for various research sources.
