Class Description:
This course is an examination of the formulation, implementation, evolution, andevaluation of colonial and federal Indian policy from colonial times to the present. The course has two principal objectives: 1) to analyze the major federal Indian policies and examine the views and attitudes of the policy-makers, and to gauge the reactions of indigenous nations to those policies; and 2) to engage students in written and critical oral discussion of the actual policies and the impact of bodies of literature related to those policies. This course has been designed to expose students to a variety of substantive topics, policies, and levels of analysis. We will read and discuss European and U.S. government Indian policy pronouncements (whether emanating from the executive, legislative, or judicial branches) and will discuss various interpretations of those policies. We will also discuss indigenous reactions to these policies. The class format will be structured as a seminar, with student participation factoring in heavily.
