One side sought to own the riches of North America and the other struggled to hold on to traditional homelands and ways of life. The book reveals how the ideas of honor, fair dealings, good faith, rule of law, and peaceful relations between nations have been tested and challenged in historical and modern times. The book consistently demonstrates how and why centuries-old treaties remain living, relevant documents for both Natives and non-Natives in the 21st century"-- %L 342.7308/72 %K Indians of North America %K History %K Legal status, laws, etc %K Government relations %K Treaty-making power %K United States %K Treaties %K SOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Native American Studies %K HISTORY / United States / General %K POLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / Treaties %9 Text %9 Aufsatzsammlung
