Reservation Capitalism: Economic Development in Indian Country supplies the true history, present-day circumstances, and potential future of Native American communities and economics.
In this new edition, Robert J. Miller, author of the first edition, teams with fellow Indigenous Peoples law and property expert Adam Crepelle to offer a meticulously edited and thoroughly updated text that addresses newly salient issues such as the fast-growing tribal cannabis industry, the significant developments within reservation-based Community Development Financial Institutions, and similarly significant developments with low-income tax credits. This edition also includes two new chapters on emerging opportunities in the clean energy sector and e-commerce, respectively.
Ultimately, these additions shows how, after Covid-19, tribal communities are moving beyond their formerly vulnerable economies predicated almost exclusively on gaming foster sustainable economic development on reservations in order to improve standards of living and sustain their self-sufficiency and self-determination.
