Description: Power and Progress on the Prairie : Governing People on Rosebud Reservation, Paperback by Biolsi, Thomas, ISBN 1517900832, ISBN-13 9781517900830, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US Harboring a long-term interest in the Rosebud region, Biolsi finds that Whites and Indians living in rural South Dakota have more in common than differences compared to the rest of the country. He believes that Rosebud country—four counties in the South Central part of the state west of the Missouri—provides a promising case regarding historical exploration of progress in the countryside. Once the government had stabilized the territory, Indians needed to be “civilized” in order to become citizens alongside their White neighbors, who, in turn, needed to be guided into progressive farming to make sure they would not become a problem-stuck in the past like Indians. Biolsi shows how challenges and difficulties problematized. He ends with a question? Why are some places and people picked for improvement when others are not?
