Tribalism in Crisis: Federal Indian Policy, 1953-1961 by Larry W. Burt

This text focuses on federal Indian policy from 1953 to 1961. It describes the attempts by terminationists (those advocating a return to a policy of assimilation and withdrawal of federal supervision and services to Native Americans) to enforce their ideas through political strongholds. The Native Americans argued that this was destroying their culture and communities. A resurgence of Indian nationalism then followed.
