Sovereignty and Nation-Building: The Development Challenge in Indian Country Today
Open accessAbstract
The Indian nations of the United States face a rare opportunity.This is not the occasional business opportunity of reservation legend, when some eager investor would arrive at tribal offices with a proposal "guaranteed" to produce millions of dollars for the tribe-although such investors still appear, promises in hand.Nor is it the niche economic opportunity of gaming, although that has transformed some tribes' situations in important ways.This opportunity is a political and organizational one.It is a chance to rethink, restructure, reorganize-a chance not to start a business or exploit an economic niche but to substantially reshape the future.It is the opportunity for nationbuilding.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
