Elizabeth Ann Kronk Warner, of the University of Kansas, has recently published the article Examining Tribal Environmental Law in the Columbia Journal of Environmental Law. The article is available for download here from SSRN. Importantly, the article "describes and classifies the laws of 74 federally recognized tribes, highlighting environmental laws the tribes have enacted." As such, Warner's article serves as an important resource for researchers in this area. The citation is 39 Colum. J. Envtl. L. 42 (2014).
Looking to access environmental or other laws of recognized tribes? The Prairie Law Blog previously posted about the new Library of Congress Indigenous Law Portal, available here, which organizes materials by state and tribe.
For more information on environmental law issues affecting Native Americans and tribal nations, consider the following titles available in the McKusick Law Library:
