The politics of indigenous people is one of the least understood components of American political life, and is rarely addressed in the field of political science. My dissertation defines and illustrates a logic of indigenous political practice and purpose, which I call 'politics on the boundaries.' Politics on the boundaries refers first to the practice of indigenous politicians seeking to secure rights and resources within the American political system while, at the same time, arguing for greater self-government outside that same system. The purpose here is to secure a level of sovereignty that is neither complete secession from nor complete assimilation within the American polity. This form of sovereignty sits between the internal pole of assimilation (first space) and the external pole of secession (second space) in what I call a post-colonial third space. The dissertation starts by theoretically exploring the relationship between sovereignty, identity and boundaries in indigenous political life. The historical narrative begins with the U.S. Civil War, a critical period not only for America but also for indigenous people. The shift in indigenous-American political relations that occurs at this time does not significantly alter until the 1960s, where my dissertation assesses the changing terms of indigenous sovereignty and political identity. Presently, questions about tribal sovereignty and indigenous identity are most notable with regard to casino gaming. Thus, I look to the politics of tribal casinos in California as a vibrant example of politics on the boundaries in the contemporary era. To shed comparative light on indigenous politics in the U.S., I also examine the politics of indigenous people in Canada during both that nation's founding period (just after the U.S. Civil War) and the present era.
