An Economic History of American Indians
By Terry L. Anderson
Economic analysis debunks the romantic image of American Indians by asserting that historically,
American Indian culture was similar to modern Western cultures in its respect for property rights.
Anderson calls for increased self-determination, sovereignty and radical reform for American Indians.
Terry L. Anderson is the executive director of PERC and a professor of economics at Montana State University.

Founded 30 years ago in Bozeman, Montana, PERC—the Property and Environment Research Center—is the nation’s oldest and largest institute dedicated to improving environmental quality through property rights and markets.
PERC’s publications, each designed to resonate with specific groups, move ideas generated at PERC to broader audiences.
Research is at the heart of PERC's work, with a focus on the question: What is the link between economic growth and environmental quality?
The goal of PERC’s programs is to fully realize the vision of establishing “PERC University,” where scholars, students, policy makers, and others convene to expand the applications of free market environmentalism.
PERC's fellowships share a common goal of exposing new scholars, students, journalists, and policy makers to free market environmentalism, as well as enable scholars already familiar with FME to explore new applications.
PERC continues to publish and present a broad range of research and discussion through podcasts, videos, and other multimedia channels.
