About

°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app

Dr. Ackerman used state and federal statutes, codes, Supreme Court Reports, the National Atlas, Web sites and more to argue that the United States has a problem with the reasonable management of Native American gaming, a problem that is not being solved by the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA). The IGRA, rather than providing a solution to Indian gaming issues, is a prescription for litigation between the tribes and the states. Dr. Ackerman is an Associate Professor of Geography at the Ohio State University in Lima.
