Download or read book Landscapes of Power written by Dana E. Powell and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Landscapes of Power Dana E. Powell examines the rise and fall of the controversial Desert Rock Power Plant initiative in New Mexico to trace the political conflicts surrounding native sovereignty and contemporary energy development on Navajo (Diné) Nation land. Powell's historical and ethnographic account shows how the coal-fired power plant project's defeat provided the basis for redefining the legacies of colonialism, mineral extraction, and environmentalism. Examining the labor of activists, artists, politicians, elders, technicians, and others, Powell emphasizes the generative potential of Navajo resistance to articulate a vision of autonomy in the face of twenty-first-century colonial conditions. Ultimately, Powell situates local Navajo struggles over energy technology and infrastructure within broader sociocultural life, debates over global climate change, and tribal, federal, and global politics of extraction.

Book Renewable Energy in Indian Country

Download or read book Renewable Energy in Indian Country written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On June 25--27, 1995, at Mesa Verde National Park in southwestern Colorado, the Center for Resource Management (CRM), organized and sponsored a conference in conjunction with the Navajo Nation, EPA, and Bechtel Group, Inc., to deal with issues associated with developing renewable energy resources on Indian lands. Due to the remoteness of many reservation homes and the cost of traditional power line extensions, a large percentage of the Indian population is today without electricity or other energy services. In addition, while they continue to develop energy resources for export, seeing only minimal gain in their own economies, Indian people are also subject to the health and environmental consequences associated with proximity to traditional energy resource development. Renewable energy technologies, on the other hand, are often ideally suited to decentralized, low-density demand. These technologies--especially solar and wind power--have no adverse health impacts associated with generation, are relatively low cost, and can be used in applications as small as a single home, meeting power needs right at a site. Their minimal impact on the environment make them particularly compatible with American Indian philosophies and lifestyles. Unfortunately, the match between renewable energy and Indian tribes has been hampered by the lack of a comprehensive, coordinated effort to identify renewable energy resources located on Indian lands, to develop practical links between Indian people's needs and energy producers, and to provide the necessary training for tribal leaders and members to plan, implement, and maintain renewable energy systems. Summaries of the presentations are presented.

Book American Indian Sovereignty and Law

Download or read book American Indian Sovereignty and Law written by Wade Davies and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-02-04 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Indian Sovereignty and Law: An Annotated Bibliography covers a wide variety of topics and includes sources dealing with federal Indian policy, federal and tribal courts, criminal justice, tribal governance, religious freedoms, economic development, and numerous sub-topics related to tribal and individual rights. While primarily focused on the years 1900 to the present, many sources are included that focus on the 19th century or earlier. The annotations included in this reference will help researchers know enough about the arguments and contents of each source to determine its usefulness. Whenever a clear central argument is made in an article or book, it is stated in the entry, unless that argument is made implicit by the title of that entry. Each annotation also provides factual information about the primary topic under discussion. In some cases, annotations list topics that compose a significant portion of an author's discussion but are not obvious from the title of the entry. American Indian Sovereignty and Law will be extremely useful in both studying Native American topics and researching current legal and political actions affecting tribal sovereignty.

Book Protecting Long Term Tribal Energy Jobs and Keeping Arizona Water and Power Costs Affordable  the Current and Future Role of the Navajo Generating Station

Download or read book Protecting Long Term Tribal Energy Jobs and Keeping Arizona Water and Power Costs Affordable the Current and Future Role of the Navajo Generating Station written by Subcommittee on Water and Power joint with the, Subcommittee on Water and Power joint with the Subcommittee on Indian and Alaska Native Affairs of the Committee on Natural Resources, U.S. House of Representatives and published by . This book was released on 2012-06-18 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1975, the Navajo Generating Station has produced 2,250 megawatts of inexpensive electricity. That is more than produced by the entire Hoover Dam. It employs 545 workers, 80 percent of whom are members of The Navajo Nation and Hopi Indian Tribe. It pays workers an average of over $100,000 per year in wages and benefits. In addition, the nearby coal mines employ another 422 tribal workers. Royalties from coal sales comprise 80 percent of the budget of the Hopi Indian Tribe. The problem is this. Beginning in 1998, environmental extremists began a concerted effort to shut down the inexpensive coal-fired electricity upon which our economy depends. Their first victim was the Mojave Generating Station.
