{"product_id":"colonial-entanglement-jean-dennison-9780807872901","title":"Colonial Entanglement: Constituting a Twenty-First-Century Osage Nation","description":"From 2004 to 2006 the Osage Nation conducted a contentious governmental reform process in which sharply differing visions arose over the new government's goals, the Nation's own history, and what it means to be Osage. The primary debates were focused on biology, culture, natural resources, and sovereignty. Osage anthropologist Jean Dennison documents the reform process in order to reveal the lasting effects of colonialism and to illuminate the possibilities for indigenous sovereignty. In doing so, she brings to light the many complexities of defining indigenous citizenship and governance in the twenty-first century.\u003cbr\u003e By situating the 2004-6 Osage Nation reform process within its historical and current contexts, Dennison illustrates how the Osage have creatively responded to continuing assaults on their nationhood. A fascinating account of a nation in the midst of its own remaking, \u003ci\u003eColonial Entanglement\u003c\/i\u003e presents a sharp analysis of how legacies of European invasion and settlement in North America continue to affect indigenous people's views of selfhood and nationhood. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean Dennison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807872903\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807872901\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of North Carolina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Jean Dennison","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947261559039,"sku":"9780807872901","price":37.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_43b038af-b968-4f7c-aa3d-05a8095715cf.jpg?v=1681517670","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/colonial-entanglement-jean-dennison-9780807872901","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
