“…In the USA, however, the limited literature that explores American Indian justice concerns tends towards decidedly a critical approach. The most heavily cited accounts, for example, are the National Institute of Justice report on Policing on American Indian Reservations (Wakeling et al 2001) and Barker's (1998) Policing in Indian Country. Neither of these offers much in the way of criticism of the ways and means of policing American Indians, nor do they even imply the ways in which both historical and contemporary police practices have been firmly embedded in ideologies of racism and colonialism.…”

Like most racialised minority groups, Native Americans have long experienced disparate policing, both in the form of over-and under-policing their communities. Inevitably, the interactions between police and Native Americans shape the latter's perceptions of the brand of justice they can expect. Cumulatively, overand under-policing reinforce the antipathy if not outright hostility towards police. They compound the historically strained relationship between Native Americans and the western criminal justice system. Yet the impacts of disparate policing also have broader community and political effects, including over-representation in the justice system, disempowerment, segregation and enhanced risk of victimisation.

“…A number of U.S. Indigenous nations have built or are now building technical capacities and partnerships designed to meet tribes' data needs and support their strategic visions (Berry, 2009;Champagne, 2012;Cornell & Kalt, 2007;Cross et al, 2004;Edwards, Morris, & RedThunder, 2009;Galloway, 1995; Harvard Project on American Indian Economic Development, 2006;Krepps & Caves, 1994;Wakeling, Jorgensen, Michaelson, & Begay, 2001). As we show with two case studies here, U.S. tribes have begun to interact with and embrace Indigenous data sovereignty and data governance as a means to assert their rights to create data by and for their nations and peoples.…”

Data about Indigenous populations in the United States are inconsistent and irrelevant. Federal and state governments and researchers direct most collection, analysis, and use of data about U.S. Indigenous populations. Indigenous Peoples' justified mistrust further complicates the collection and use of these data. Nonetheless, tribal leaders and communities depend on these data to inform decision making. Reliance on data that do not reflect tribal needs, priorities, and self-conceptions threatens tribal self-determination. Tribal data sovereignty through governance of data on Indigenous populations is long overdue. This article provides two case studies of the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo and Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe and their demographic and socioeconomic data initiatives to create locally and culturally relevant data for decision making.

“…They are not part of the landscape -not its past or its future. Similar perceptions of Indigenous people and the settler societies which came to dominate them in post-colonial times can be found in other countries as well, and continues to contextualise their contemporary relationships with mainstream society and its criminal justice institutions (Hazlehurst 1995;Wakeling, Jorgensen, Michaelson and Begay 2001;Wood and Griffiths 2000).…”

Over the past quarter century, a growing volume of rural-focused criminological work has emerged. In this article, the literature related to three rural criminological issues are examined and discussed in terms of their lessons for critical criminology. Research on rural communities and crime is examined as a way to criticize and challenge mainstream criminological theories and concepts like social disorganisation and collective efficacy, and to remind critical criminologists of the importance for developing critical perspectives for place-based or ecological theories of crime. Agricultural crime studies are discussed in terms of the need to develop a critical criminology of agriculture and food. Finally, criminological studies of rural 'others' is used to show the need for critical criminologists to give greater analytic attention to divisions and marginalities of peoples living in smaller and more isolated places based on gender, race, and lifestyles, among other factors.
