Flaherty provides evidence that rhetorical themes vary by administration and seem to either rely on more symbolic, historical language or to connect more clearly to the dominant platforms and messages of the president in question. The book then moves to incorporate an analysis of key outcomes compared across the administrations. The data and analysis show that federal spending, legislative outcomes, and Supreme Court decisions have not consistently supported self-determination policy over the past 50 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is a must read for scholars and students interested in indigenous politics, Native American Indian Politics, US presidency and rhetoric.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45566442307822,"sku":"9781032209333","price":210.4,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/presidential-rhetoric-and-indian-policy-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
