“A tour de force! Labor and Employment Law in Indian Country is so comprehensive—including detailed discussions of the federal civil rights and employment statutes, the different approaches of the various federal circuit courts on many issues, and all the Supreme Court cases touching on the bounds of federal/state/tribal relations. . . . Anyone who deals with Indian tribes in business matters needs to know about this important field of law.” —Professor Robert Anderson, University of Washington School of Law, Co-Editor of Felix Cohen’s Handbook on Federal Indian Law. “Indian country long has hungered for practical advice on how to modernize tribal governments, how to effectively assert tribal sovereignty, and how to forestall outsider influences on tribal business. Kaighn Smith's guide to labor law in Indian country is a dramatic step in the right direction, with solid legal analysis coupled with cutting-edge recommendations for tribal leaders and attorneys. This work is a rare breath of fresh air in an era of deep judicial and political skepticism about Native nations.” —Matthew L.M. Fletcher, Founder of Turtle Talk and Associate Professor, Michigan State University School of Law |
