摘要
"This book offers a comprehensive survey of various aspects of tribal life, and focuses on political issues such as the meaning of sovereignty; legal issues dealing with the role of custom and social issues concerned with sustaining communal life." "Recent judicial decisions are analyzed as a reflection of the far-reaching changes that have taken place, in a process that has seen the disregard of basic rights of indigenous people being replaced by an awareness of the injustices perpetrated in the past and a willingness to seek to redress them."--Jacket.
