The politics of expressive forms, ethnographic practice, and indigenous–state relations
This review examines four recently published ethnographies of North American Indian communities in both the United States and Canada, each reflecting the ways in which sovereignty and self-determination are realized and compromised. The evolving indigenous polities discussed in these works each articulate with the nation-state that encompasses them in different ways, in large part by virtue of the kinds of resources the communities are perceived …
Native Nation Building
This article documents the emergence of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin’s judiciary over the course of the past thirty years. It argues that judicial systems have become necessary tribal institutions in the federal Indian policy era of self-determination, but assimilating them to tribal societies that are characteristically organized by kinship presents serious challenges of legitimacy. The Oneida Nation needed a formal dispute resolution forum in…
Ordering Legal Plurality
This article examines how a Wisconsin statute passed in 2009 that authorized state court judges to transfer cases to American Indian tribal courts unfolded as a political and legal process that was both informed by and produced by fundamental conceptions of cultural difference. It calls specific attention to jurisprudential differences in the form of jury trials and peacemaking in figuring the differences between conceptions of tribal membership …

The article examines the period between 1984, when the Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission was formed, and 2009, the Commission’s twenty-fifth anniversary, when it hosted a major retrospective symposium. It documents chang…
Law and Ojibwe Indian “Traditional Cultural Property” in the Organized Resistance to the Crandon Mine in Wisconsin
Section 106 of the 1966 National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) requires that federal agencies “must take into account” the impact of their regulatory actions on historical properties, among them the “traditional cultural properties” of American Indian tribes. Conceiving of tribes' own social practices in terms of property creates the possibility for making claims about its loss for tribes, but it also problematizes their cultures' inherent dyn…

Commentary
The museum display is a representation ... authoritatively produced and often beyond question. It is itself a created past, implying by its authority a command over time and space. This brief response attempts to clarify the main point made in my original article, “Historical Ambivalence in a Tribal Museum”: an account of the significance of the disparity between certain historical and political realities in the community at Lac du Flambeau and t…

Negotiating Jurisprudence in Tribal Court and the Emergence of a Tribal State
Examination of jurisprudence in a single Ojibwe tribal court and the trials that take place in it over alleged violations of recently codified tribal law on off-reservation hunting suggests that many of these communities are becoming statelike and that tribal courts are instrumental in producing this transformation. As instrumentalities of tribal sovereignty, tribal courts facilitate the ongoing stratification of local Indian societies as particu…

Simulating Culture
After the Second World War, increasing numbers of tourists traveled to the Northwoods of Wisconsin to recreate. Lac du Flambeau Chippewa Indians encouraged this process by availing themselves as fishing guides and by building in 1951 the Indian Bowl, within which they staged Indian dances and related cultural performances.

Drawing skillfully on the work of scholars such as Charles Peirce, Michael Silverstein, Michel de Certeau, Pierre Bourdieu, Fredrik Barth, and others to fashion a pragmatic semiotic theoretical approach to the archaeology of colonialism, Craig Cipolla reveals the subtleties of Brothertown Indian community ethnogenesis and ethnicity in this very readable volume by analyzing three orders of data: documents by, to, and about the Brothertown Indians;…
