Protecting Non-Indians from Harm: The Property Consequences of Indians
Ezra Rosser American University - Washington College of Law Oregon Law Review, Vol. 87, No. 1, 2008 American University WCL Research Paper No. 08-42 Abstract: This article is an exploration of the assumption, last made by the U.S. Supreme Court in City of Sherrill v. Oneida Indian Nation of New York, that non-Indian property owners are harmed by Indian acquisition and control of land. Accepting for the moment the Court's prioritization of a non-Indian perspective, the article explores (a) what lies behind non-Indian resistance to Indian land ownership, and (b) whether in fact non-Indians are harmed by proximity to Indian land. The article combines in its analysis core property law concepts with an empirical examination of the changes over time in assessed land value of properties located near Indian land.
