The historical processes of Mohawk "underdevelopment" at Ak-wesasne are chronicled and the subversion of Native values and subsistence, and the creation of Native dependence on non-Native society examined. Mohawk involvement in this predicament is traced to several processes: participation in the 17th century European/wr trade, which contributed to the destruction of the tribe's traditional economy; coerced adherence to Christianity, which con-tributed to the loss of traditional American Indian value systems; and associated loss of lands and resources due to broken treaties and unjust laws
