Tribal gaming is simultaneously at the center and the periphery of
tribal labor relations and, for that matter, economic development
in Indian Country as a whole. Tribal labor relations span the
tension between gaming and nongaming concerning issues and
questions that are central to any tribally run economic enterprise.
The Work of Sovereignty explores political, economic, and cultural
forces that structure and influence economic development from the
perspective of workers. A fundamental question of this book is what
it would mean to view indigenous self-determination from the
vantage point of work and workers. The author's considerations of
this question cohere around his definition of tribal labor
relations as the unique ways in which relationships between workers
and management play out. While most research on tribal sovereignty
and economic development focuses on the legal, governmental, and
economic structures that delimit sovereignty, this book centers on
the people who experience and enact it through their everyday
labor. The Work of Sovereignty is not just about the legal
jurisdictional debates over tribal gaming labor relations, but
rather, how labor relations play out on the ground in Indian
Country, how tribal employees view their relationships with their
bosses and tribal enterprises, and how this view connects to their
enactment of indigenous self-determination.
