Policing Race and Place in Indian Country: Over- And Underenforcement

Policing Race and Place in Indian Country is the first book to explore Native Americans’ perspectives on the way law enforcement operates in Indian Country. In particular, it addresses the ways in which Native American communities-expecially those in and around reservations-are both over-and underpoliced in ways that perpetuate both the criminalization and victimization of Native Americans as nations and as individuals.
