What happens to a First Nation after the successful negotiation of a land claim? Navigating Neoliberalism argues that neoliberalism, which drives government policy concerning First Nations in Canada, can also drive self-determination. And in a globalizing ng that the current political and economic climate has presented.world, new opportunities for indigenous governance may transform socioeconomic well-being.

Gabrielle Slowey studies the development of First Nations governance in health, education, economic development, and housing. What emerges is a theoretical and empirical case study of one First Nation, the Mikisew Cree, as it navigates its way through neoliberalism. Contrary to the popular belief that First Nations suffer in an age of state retrenchment, privatization, and decentralization, Slowey finds that the Mikisew First Nation has successfully exploited opportunities for greater autonomy and well-being that the current political and economic climate has presented.

Navigating Neoliberalism tackles a topical issue central to Canadian politics and Canadian federalism. It will be of interest to students and practitioners of public policy, political economy, and political science, as well as members and leaders in First Nations communities.
