AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This article examines the changes that have taken place within Jicarilla Apache political organization during the 1950s and early 1960s. In their exposition of this theme, the authors present a thorough discussion of the role of the Agency of the Bureau of Indian Affairs as a potent political force within Jicarilla reservation history, which forms the foundation for a discussion of how tribal organization changed from its origins to a formal political force in 1937.The interrelations of government agency and tribal political organization forms a major part of the discussion in this paper.
