"The Past Never Vanishes": A Contextual Critique Of The Existing Indian Family Doctrine, Lorie M. Graham Jan 1998

"The Past Never Vanishes": A Contextual Critique Of The Existing Indian Family Doctrine, Lorie M. Graham

American Indian Law Review

I don't know my own culture, . . . I am going to need your help in understanding . . . . Teach me, teach my children. These are the words of a forty-three-year-old Navajo woman on her first visit back to the Navajo Nation since her birth. Stolen as an infant, along with her twin brother, and adopted out on the black market, she was finally reunited with her family and community. Her journey home comes at a time when Native American nations are fighting proposed legislation and court-made rules that seek to limit the reach of the Indian …


State Property Taxation Of Tribal Fee Lands Located Within Reservation Boundaries: Reconsidering County Of Yakima V. Confederated Tribes & Bands Of The Yakima Indian Nation And Leech Lake Band Of Chippewa Indians V. Cass County, Scott A. Taylor Jan 1998

State Property Taxation Of Tribal Fee Lands Located Within Reservation Boundaries: Reconsidering County Of Yakima V. Confederated Tribes & Bands Of The Yakima Indian Nation And Leech Lake Band Of Chippewa Indians V. Cass County, Scott A. Taylor

American Indian Law Review

Although once the owners of the North American continent, native peoples and the governments that represent them now own only a small percentage of the land within the current United States. Many tribes are interested in reacquiring lands that once belonged to them. Tribes, as governments and as legal entities, have the power to acquire lands through purchase. When tribes buy lands from private owners, the tax status of the lands becomes an immediate issue. All of the fifty states levy an annual ad valorem real property tax. States, constantly vigilant in protecting their tax revenue, readily attempt to tax …

Indian Fishing Rights: Aftermath Of The Fox Decision And The Year 2000, Karen Ferguson Jan 1998

Indian Fishing Rights: Aftermath Of The Fox Decision And The Year 2000, Karen Ferguson

American Indian Law Review

The ongoing Indian fishing rights debate in northern Michigan is intensifying as a 1985 court ordered consent agreement nears its year 2000 expiration date. Many of the local citizenry are concerned that the debate may turn violent as it did in the 1970s. In the 1970s there was fierce competition between Indians and non-Indians over a fish resource that was becoming depleted at an alarming rate. While pollution of the Great Lakes and the presence of non-native parasites were more likely the cause of the depleted stocks, the sport fishermen blamed Indian gill netting for the problem. In recent years, …

Instigating Change In A Globalised Social Environment : The Impact Of Globalisation Upon The Promotion Of Vegetarianism In The United Kingdom, Andrew David Smart Jan 1998

Instigating Change In A Globalised Social Environment : The Impact Of Globalisation Upon The Promotion Of Vegetarianism In The United Kingdom, Andrew David Smart

School of Law, Humanities and Social Sciences Theses

In this thesis I examine globalisation as an ongoing social change to understand how it is routinely reproduced by social actors. To do this I consider the impacts of globalisation in an existing social setting and use a conceptual framework from the sociological literature to interpret and explain the evidence. The empirical materials were gathered during an ethnographic case study of The Vegetarian Society - an interest group that actively promoted social change by presenting everyday individual food consumption in the manner of reflexive 'life politics'. I use the concepts of 'interpenetration', 'relativisation', 'detraditionalisation' and 'institutional reflexivity' to indicate that …


Patriarchy And Discordant Discourses In The Contemporary Roman Catholic Church : The Voices Of Priests And Women In Parish Settings, Geraldine Sharp Jan 1998

Patriarchy And Discordant Discourses In The Contemporary Roman Catholic Church : The Voices Of Priests And Women In Parish Settings, Geraldine Sharp

School of Law, Humanities and Social Sciences Theses

This thesis explores the sexual theology and contemporary teachings of the Roman Catholic Church and considers their implications for women and priests. It examines the salience and relevance of traditional teaching in the everyday lives of priests and women. It questions the link between a traditionally formed priesthood and the customary beliefs and practices of 'ordinary' English Catholics. Feminist scholarship has produced powerful insights into the ways in which organised religion has subordinated women through patriarchal structures and organisation, although there has been little exploration of the gendered nature of Catholic sexual theology. This thesis suggests that the negative construction …
