Introduction to strategic studies & key concepts 2013 1bakri303
Strategic studies concerns the use of force as an instrument of state policy, deriving from Clausewitz's notion of strategy as "the use of engagement for the purpose of war." Traditionally, strategic studies focused on how wars start and are fought efficiently. However, recent thinkers argue that strategic studies embodies using military power to achieve political objectives and involves coordinating all national resources toward goals.

You are not born an entrepreneur, you become oneJuliaShapiro9
This document discusses entrepreneurship and career success. It summarizes that:
1) Entrepreneurship and high earnings are strongly correlated with high socioeconomic status at birth, contradicting perceptions of meritocracy.
2) Government policies from the 1950s-1980s promoting social services, middle class growth, and investments in innovation fueled mobility but these have decreased.
3) Traditional hiring, investment, and promotion practices contain strong biases that disadvantage women and minorities and undermine the benefits of diversity. Data-driven assessments can mitigate these biases.
4) Early government investments and partnerships were crucial to building innovation hubs like Silicon Valley, but these policies have changed along with rising inequality in recent decades.

In this introductory webinar, representatives from the Center for Social Inclusion discussed the current context of race leading to a deeper analysis of structural racism. They argued that the intent to discriminate is mostly irrelevant because institutions are inherently inequitable, and even well-intentioned policies may discriminate on race (even though that was not their original intention). When we don’t pay attention to race in our policymaking and in our grant funding, we continue to see disparities. The speakers gave examples of how racial and equitable US policies are important for all Americans and then gave some tools funders could use to identify structural problems. Representatives of The Hyams Foundation then shared key points in their journey in applying a structural race analysis to a key programmatic area, as an initial step to infusing racial justice throughout the Foundation's work. The webinar concluded with a Q&A with the participants.

4. The Puzzle
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
What explains the success that some
Native nations in the US have had in
building sustainable, self-determined
economies?
5. Research carried out by the Native Nations
Institute at the University of Arizona and the
Harvard Project on American Indian Economic
Development indicates that the keys to successful,
sustainable development lie in how Native nations
govern themselves. The economic development
challenge is first and foremost a political
challenge.
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
What the research says…
6. Keys to Success
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
▪ Practical Self-Rule (Jurisdiction)
▪ Effective Institutions of Self-Governance
▪ Cultural Match
▪ Strategic Orientation
▪ Leadership
in other words… Nation-Building
7. NATION BUILDING
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
Definition:
The enhanced capacity of Indigenous nations
to realize their own economic, educational,
cultural, environmental, and political
objectives through foundational actions of
their own design.
8. Today, What Does Self-Rule Mean for Indigenous
Governments?
Control of Cultural and Religious Affairs
Use of Environmental and Natural Resources
Business Permitting and Regulation
Setting Citizenship/Membership Criteria
Law Making and Legislation
Governmental Form
Taxation
Civil Law and Courts
Criminal Law and Courts
Postal Service
Issuance of Currency
Military

Self-Determination Policy c. 1970…
Self-Governance/Self-Determination c. 1988…
10. Despite the intense efforts to
change Native peoples into other
than who we are, we have, by and
large, maintained our sense of
peoplehood, culture, and
relationships
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
11. Federal Policy:
Termination or Self-Determination?
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
What is clear in the constant
vacillation of U.S. Federal Indian policy
is that the
policy of self-rule (jurisdiction)
is the only Federal policy that has worked in
Native affairs.
12. There seems to be a 20-year Lag
Rule present, which requires
patience and tolerance because
Indigenous development
solutions have been diverse and
creative; rather than, the shoddy
and easy answers that have often
been put forth by the Federal
government.
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
13. Another Story:
▪ One Nation Split in Two
By Two Colonizing
Forces
▪ Self-Rule for One and Control for the
Other
▪ Two Different Development Results
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy

15. The Puzzle
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
So, what explains the success that
some Native nations in the US have
had in building sustainable, self-
determined economies?
16. Two Approaches to Indigenous
Economic Development
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
▪ The Standard Approach dominated Indian
Country through most of the 20th Century
▪ The Nation-Building Approach is emerging in
practice in Indian Country today.
How do these approaches differ, and why does
one work so much better than the other?
17. Building Native Nation Economies

mess of things. Good thing we got
elected. What should we do now?”
and here we go again…

34. 1. Short-term, non-strategic
2. Views economic development as an economic problem
3. Instead of building an economy step-by-step, looks for
“home runs.”
4. Lets others (usually other governments) set the
development agenda
5. Views Indigenous cultures as obstacles to development
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
The Standard Approach to
Economic Development
35. ▪ Failed enterprises
▪ A politics of spoils
▪ Brain drain
▪ Outside perceptions of incompetence and chaos that
undermine the defense of sovereignty
▪ Inside perceptions of incompetence and chaos that
undermine the confidence of the community
▪ Continuing poverty
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
Typical Results of the
Standard Model
36. In short, the standard approach produces a poor
foundation for sustainable development…
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
37. Isn’t there a better way?
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
Yes, and some Native Nations
are pursuing it…
38. 1. Sovereignty in practice (the nation calls the shots)
2. Capable governing institutions (back up authority with
competence)
3. Cultural match (governing institutions match community
beliefs about how authority should be organized)
4. Strategic orientation (decisions are made with long-term
priorities in mind)
5. Public-spirited leadership (instead of politics as boxing ring
where factions fight to control the goodies)
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
The Nation-Building Approach to
Economic Development
39. ▪ Puts the development agenda and the
necessary resources in Indian hands.
▪ Marries decisions to consequences, leading
to better decisions.
▪ Has concrete, bottom-line payoffs.
▪ Evidence says it’s necessary (but not
sufficient) for sustained development.
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
1. Sovereignty in Practice
40. What Does Self-Governance Mean?
Two Versions…
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
▪ Operational Administration – Native Nations
take over administration of programs designed and
funded by federal government and states.
Primary relationship = recipient
▪ Self-Rule – Native Nations have increased
jurisdiction, constitutional authority, and decision-
making power.
Primary relationship = partner
41. But what does this mean…?
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
42. A Focus on Government
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
Research shows that
effective governing institutions
are the essential components
in sustainable economic development.
But why does the quality of governance
matter so much?
43. ▪ Stability.
▪ Careful management of the politics-business
connection.
▪ Effective and non-politicized resolution of
disputes (a strong and independent judiciary).
▪ The ability to make binding decisions in a timely
fashion.
▪ A bureaucracy that can get things done.
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
2. Capable Governing Institutions
44. ▪ To be effective, governing institutions must have
legitimacy with the people.
▪ This means they have to match Indigenous ideas
about how authority should be organized and
exercised.
▪ Institutions that match contemporary Indigenous
cultures are more successful than those that don’t.
▪ Economic strategies that match contemporary
Indigenous cultures are more successful than those
that don’t.
…But there’s no blank check; institutions and
strategies also have to work.
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
3. Cultural Match
45. Differences in Governmental Form
Traditional Contemporary
Cochiti Pueblo Hopi Flathead
Onondaga Isleta Pueblo Citizen Potawatomi
▪ There is great variation in governmental form among
Indigenous nations because of the diversity of
traditional political systems and the uneven application
of federal policy
▪ Combining traditional and contemporary is a common
Indigenous strategy for solving governance challenges
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
46. Which of these are
the “best” governments?
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
➢The ones that solve their nations’ governance
challenges
➢The ones that promote their communities’ interests
➢The ones that hold their communities together
➢The ones that match their communities’ cultures and
work (meet the nations’ needs)
There’s no one, specific “best” way.
47. Whatever decisions you make, remember that the
organization of government has to pass two tests:
Cultural Match Effectiveness
The
Organization of
Government
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
48. …from reactive to proactive thinking (not just
responding to crisis but trying to gain control over
the future)
…from short-term to long-term thinking (twenty-five
years from now, what kind of society do you want?)
…from opportunistic to systemic thinking (focusing
not on what can be funded but on how each option
fits the community’s future)
…from a narrow problem focus to a broader focus on
the community (fixing not just problems but
communities)
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
4. Strategic Orientation: A Shift…
49. Key Strategic Questions
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
▪ What kind of society are you trying to build?
▪ What do you hope will be different 25 or 50
years from now? What do you hope will be the
same?
▪ What do you wish to protect? What are you
willing to change?
▪ What assets do you have to work with?
▪ What makes sense to the community at large?
…all in the context of a hard-nosed look at the
reality and requirements of your situation.
50. 5. Leadership
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
…individuals or groups who are willing to
break with status quo practices in Indian
Country, who can articulate a new vision of
the nation’s future, and who both
understand and can effectively encourage
the foundational changes such visions
require.
51. The Strategic Role of Leaders in Fostering
Economic Activity
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
▪ They create (or destroy) a climate in which development
can take place
▪ They set a vision (or not) of where the nation is headed.
▪ They create (or undermine) institutions capable of
effectively implementing a national vision
▪ They respect (or abuse) rules of the game by which
members must play
▪ They send messages that “investors” will (or will not) be
treated fairly, regardless of who they voted for or who
their relatives are
▪ They eliminate (or introduce) obstacles to development
53. The Role of Non-Indigenous Governments
The Nation-Building Approach
▪ Fund development via block grants (decisions about
priorities move into Native hands)
▪ Invest in institutional capacity-building
▪ Transfer significant jurisdictional powers to Native
Nations
▪ Abandon the “one-size-fits-all fantasy”: It won’t
work
▪ Act like partners (be accountable to Native nations
as well as higher-ups)
▪ Realize there will be mistakes, but what does self-
rule mean if not the freedom to make mistakes and
learn from them?
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
54. Implications for Native Nations
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
▪ Pursue jurisdiction, constitutional authority,
decision-making power
▪ Development is first and foremost a political
challenge
▪ Jurisdiction is toothless without capable government
behind it
▪ Therefore, invest in institutional capacity building
▪ Act as a partner
▪ Govern well
▪ Change the conversation about government, about
development, about what makes a healthy society
55. Building Native Nation Economies

61. Results of the
Nation-Building Approach
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
▪ More effective access to and use of
resources
▪ Increased chances of sustained and self-
determined economic development
▪ A more effective defense of sovereignty
▪ Communities – not just economies – that
work
62. None of the characteristics of the Nation-
Building approach is something we usually
describe as “economic”
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
In the Nation-Building approach economic
development is first and foremost a
political problem
Once the political problem is solved,
then economic assets begin to pay off
They are all political
64. KEYS TO NATION BUILDING IN
NATIVE AMERICA
Successful Indigenous Nations
Assert the Right to Govern Themselves and
Exercise That Right Effectively
By Building Capable Governing Institutions
That Match Their Cultures.
Leadership and strategic thinking are keys.
The task is Nation Building.
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
65. Conclusion:
Native Nations Institute for Leadership, Management, and Policy
Hold on to what is good,
Even if it is a handful of earth
Hold on to what you believe,
Even if it is only a tree by itself
Hold on to what you must do,
Even if it is a long way from here
Hold on to life,
Even if it is easier letting go
Hold on to my hand,
Even when I have gone away from you
