Inhaltsangabe

The criminal justice system on Indian lands consists of a complex and often overlapping matrix of federal, tribal, and in certain circumstances, state jurisdiction. The complexity of this system has contributed to a crisis of violent crime on many Indian reservations that has persisted for decades. Federal reports have consistently found that the divided system of justice in place on Indian reservations lacks co-ordination, accountability, and adequate and consistent funding. This book examines the issues of reservation violence which disrupts the peace and public safety of tribal communities.
