Hopis, Yaquis, and O'odhams in the Spanish Arizona-Sonora borderlands: political incorporation by degrees -- Pueblo contestations of power in the Mexican period -- The politics of inclusion/exclusion in the Arizona-Sonora borderlands during the Mexican period -- Refusing citizenship: Pueblo Indians and voting during the United States territorial period -- Disparate designs: Indian voting in territorial Arizona.
Subject: "By focusing on this long history, Maurice Crandall demonstrates how Indigenous peoples absorbed, adapted, or eschewed colonially imposed forms of electoral politics and exercised political sovereignty based on local needs. In doing so, this study compares and contrasts not only Spanish, Mexican, and American conceptions of Indian citizenship, but also the differences among indigenous groups that populated what became the states of Arizona and New Mexico. Crandall's work represents a significant contribution to the fields of indigenous political rights and legal status in the American Southwest, as well as Indian-Hispano and Indian-Anglo relations in the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands"--
