...hazards of development only hint at the complexity of the questions facing Indians like Russell Means. In the Reagan Administration's drive for a new "federalism," the Indians appear to be regaining a tremendous-many say overwhelming--amount of jurisdiction over their economic and governmental affairs. But it is not clear that this independence, which would appear to be precisely what many Indians want, will do much to get at their fundamental problems of alcoholism, poverty, and isolation...

Just as the U.S. did after the 1979 Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the imposition of martial law in Poland in 1981, the Soviet Union volubly denounced the U.S. moves but did not so much as hint at military action in retaliation.
