Abstract:
The centering processes of geographic information system (GIS) development at the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) was an extension of past cartographic encounters with American Indians through the central control of geospatial technologies, uneven development of geographic information resources, and extension of technically dependent clientele. Cartographic encounters included the historical exchanges of geographic information between indigenous people and non-Indians in North America. Scientists and technicians accumulated geographic information at the center of calculation where

Abstract:
AbstractThe case law reveals the courts' willingness to uphold federal intervention in Indian government, justifying such intervention on the grounds that Congress has plenary power over Indian affairs, that a ward-guardian relationship exists between Indians and the American government, or that a particular action was political and therefore not open to review (243). Yet, courts have characterized the jurisdiction still exercised by tribal governments as flowing from retained sovereignty rather than as delegated by Congress.

Abstract:
In October 1963, top officials from the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Indian Affairs Branch of the Canadian Department of Citizenship and Immigration convened in Scottsdale, Arizona. This article mobilizes the records of the 1963 meetings to contribute to broader debates about the relationship between settler colonization and the production of urban space. It argues that by focusing on the relationships between settler states scholars can strengthen existing understandings of “settler-colonial urbanism” and reveal a broader set of influences that has shaped its varied trajecto

Abstract:
Humans cause more than 55% of wildfires on lands managed by the USDA Forest Service and US Department of the Interior, contributing to both suppression expenditures and damages. One means to reduce the expenditures and damages associated with these wildfires is through fire prevention activities, which can include burn permits, public service programs or announcements, outreach efforts to schools, youth groups and equipment operators, and law enforcement. Using data from 17 US Bureau of Indian Affairs tribal units, we modelled the effect of prevention programs and law enforcement on the number

Abstract:
We use data from the Bureau of Indian Affairs annual reports between 1912 and 1927 to examine the wealth of Indigenous nations in the contiguous United States during the early twentieth century. Our estimates reveal considerable heterogeneity in wealth holdings across Indigenous nations. In 1912, the average real per capita wealth of Indigenous nations was high relative to other groups, but it declined systematically throughout the period of our study. Given the available contemporary evidence, our estimates imply a dramatic widening of the wealth gap over the last century.

Abstract:
The need to reduce fatal and injury crashes on tribal lands has been recognized for years. The United States has realized a decline in fatal crashes over the past several years, but fatal crashes continue to increase on tribal lands. Little progress has been made in improving safety on tribal lands. Limited resources, lack of coordination across jurisdictions, the rural nature of many of the roadways, and lack of crash data have made it difficult for tribes to implement an effective safety improvement program. A methodology that can address these challenges is presented in this paper. The prop

Abstract:
Prescribed fire is one of the most widely advocated management practices for reducing wildfire hazard and has a long and rich tradition rooted in indigenous and local ecological knowledge. The scientific literature has repeatedly reported that prescribed fire is often the most effective means of achieving such goals by reducing fuels and wildfire hazard and restoring ecological function to fire-adapted ecosystems in the United States (US) following a century of fire exclusion. This has translated into calls from scientists and policy experts for more prescribed fire, particularly in the Wester

The Coast Reservation of Oregon was established under Executive Order of President Franklin Pierce in November, 1855, as a homeland for the southern Oregon tribes. It was an immense, isolated wilderness, parts of which had burned earlier in the century. There were some prairies where farming was possible, but because the reservation system itself and farming, particularly along the coast, were unknown entities, life for the Indians was a misery for years. Those responsible for the establishment of the reservation were subject to the vagaries of the weather, the wilderness, the Congress, and th

Abstract A basic debate over Indian policy developed in the yearsimmediately after World War II. The debate was at first a minor play within a general dialogue concerned with government spending and the growth of “big government.” It began as a demand that trusteeship over Indian property be curtailed and that some functions of the Bureau of Indian Affairs be transferred to other agencies, but it soon broadened into a full attack on the Indian reform program. In and out of Congress there was an increasing tendency to view trusteeship as a failure. It had not provided a method by which the Unit
