The meaning of self-government in Kahnawake / by Gerald R. Alfred.: Z1-1991/1-41-62E-PDF

“This study examines the Mohawk community of Kahnawake with the objective of determining the Mohawk view on key issues involved in the discussion of Aboriginal self-government. The two main research questions centre around three issues: Mohawk views on the appropriate forms of internal organization; Mohawk views on the capacity of their community to manage the institutions of self-government; and Mohawk views on the optimum framework for a relationship between Kahnawake and other governments"--Executive summary, p. [3].
