Описание: In the pre-reserve era, Aboriginal bands in the northern plains were relatively small multicultural communities that actively maintained fluid and inclusive membership through traditional kinship practices. These practices were governed by the Law of the People as described in the traditional stories of Wîsashkêcâhk, or Elder Brother, that outlined social interaction, marriage, adoption, and kinship roles and responsibilities.In Elder Brother and the Law of the People, Robert Innes offers a detailed analysis of the role of Elder Brother stories in historical and contemporary kinship practices in Cowessess First Nation, located in southeastern Saskatchewan. He reveals how these tradition-inspired practices act to undermine legal and scholarly definitions of “Indian” and counter the perception that First Nations people have internalized such classifications. He presents Cowessess's successful negotiation of the 1996 Treaty Land Agreement and their high inclusion rate of new “Bill-C31s” as evidence of the persistence of historical kinship values and their continuing role as the central unifying factor for band membership. Elder Brother and the Law of the People presents an entirely new way of viewing Aboriginal cultural identity on the northern plains.
This book was developed to present factual information as delineated by the title: The United States of America The Most Successful Nation and People of All ... The 1620 Mayflower Pilgrims Began it, with Freedom for People and the Free Market; The Constitution Defined It with Law, Success Reigned. Government Proliferated, Changes Now Needed. Too much of the information known about the economy and our marketplace is entirely incorrect. It has been disseminated by individuals with knowledge gained from university studies and books or by individuals in the political field--none from having experience in the business field.
These individuals want to solve the problems which they see prominent in the business field. They think workers are being mistreated, not being paid the way they should for the work they do, while the owners and managers of businesses are prospering. They say the rich are getting richer; the poor are getting poorer. Politicians have noted these problems and they feel an obvious solution would be to increase the minimum wage.
The latter solution does only one thing: it makes it harder for some beginners to get a job. It helps no one. And no one, without experience in a particular technical field, can solve problems that might arise in that field. The United States of America: The Most Successful Nation and People of All explains why that is true.
The book explains how the United States of America has become the most successful nation and people in the world. Those classified as poor in this country are, on average, better off economically than the people, rich and poor, in Europe. The book provides facts and details that explains the reasons why the United States surpassed all other nations in economic success--its free market, how it was born, when it was born, and what government did to sustain it.

Описание: Selected for the 2021 Donald L. Fixico Award for Best Book on American Indian and Canadian First Nations HistoryBefore an indigenous people can decolonize, Leo Killsback explains, they must first understand what the world was like before colonization. Such understanding allows indigenous people to generate realistic goals and achieve positive change, reinventing themselves into people and nations who can honor original ways without corrupting or disgracing them.In two volumes, A Sacred People and A Sovereign People, Killsback, a citizen of the Northern Cheyenne Nation, reconstructs and rekindles an ancient Cheyenne world--ways of living and thinking that became casualties of colonization and forced assimilation. Spanning more than a millennium of antiquity and recovering stories and ideas interpreted from a Cheyenne worldview, the works’ joint purpose is rooted as much in a decolonization roadmap as it is in preservation of culture and identity for the next generations of Cheyenne people.Dividing the story of the Cheyenne Nation into pre- and post-contact, A Sacred People and A Sovereign People lay out indigenously conceived possibilities for employing traditional worldviews to replace unhealthy and dysfunctional ones bred of territorial, cultural, and psychological colonization.Together these volumes use an ancient past to confront long-standing challenges and to speak to the future. Comprising teachings that go to the true identities of the old ones, they reveal a way of thinking that today very few people know and even fewer live. Within such revelations about past leaders and events, Killsback demonstrates, lie the foundations for rebuilding and healing the Cheyenne Nation.

Описание: In the rich tradition of oral storytelling, Chief Irving Powless Jr. of the Beaver Clan of the Onondaga Nation reminds us of an ancient treaty. It promises that the Haudenosaunee people and non-Indigenous North Americans will respect each other’s differences even when their cultures and behaviors differ greatly.Powless shares intimate stories of growing up close to the earth, of his work as Wampum Keeper for the Haudenosaunee people, of his heritage as a lacrosse player, and of the treaties his ancestors made with the newcomers. He also pokes fun at the often-peculiar behavior of his non-Onondaga neighbors, asking, ""Who are these people anyway?"" Sometimes disarmingly gentle, sometimes caustic, these vignettes refreshingly portray mainstream North American culture as seen through Haudenosaunee eyes. Powless illustrates for all of us the importance of respect, peace, and, most importantly, living by the unwritten laws that preserve the natural world for future generations.

Описание: Smuggler Nation is the first book that retells the story of America and its foreign relations as a series of intense battles over illicit trade. As Andreas argues in this fascinating and provocative account, clandestine commerce-and campaigns to suppress it-has played a vital but too often overlooked role in America`s birth, economic and political development, and emergence as a global power.
