Socio-political Order of Native America: Relationship Between the Individual and the Community

Abstract: A 3 page overview of the importance of the relationship between individual and community as it existed among traditional Native American groups. Using the Iroquois as an example, the author contends that traditional Native American culture incorporated a complex socio-political order and emphasized the relationship between the individual and the community in many ways that could even be considered superior to European culture. Sometimes that organization and interrelationship even influenced European culture, and ultimately the United States itself, in quite dramatic ways. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
